Today’s workout:

Arms

Superset 1: 

• Cable Curls 1×40;1×30;1×20;1×10;1×10
• Tricep Overhead Cable Triceps Extensions 1×40;1×30;1×20;1×10;1×10

• Triceps Skull Crushers 1×10;1×10;1×20;1×30;1×40

• Hanging Leg Raises 5×20

As you can tell, I like supersets. It’s a great way to get a good pump and ensure you hit all the muscle fibers. The higher reps loosen up the muscle and help lift heavier in subsequent supersets.

That’s it for today!

See you at the finish line!

Howdy folks!

I hope your day is going well. I just finished today’s workout. The focus for today was biceps, triceps, and forearms. Here’s the routine:

• Machine Curls
• Machine Dips
• Barbell Curls
• Cable Overhead Triceps Extensions
• Forearm curls
• Reverse forearm curls

That was it for today. My arms are smoked. Tomorrow will be a cardio day. I use this day as a day off, but still hit the gym to keep my habitual workouts going.

See you tomorrow!

Bodybuilding, chest, DOMS, triceps, Workout Routines

Today’s workout!

Today was a day of Chest and Triceps. For chest, I hit Flat Bench Dumbbell Press and Flys and Incline Dumbbell Press and Flys. For Triceps I hit Tricep Pushdowns, Tricep overhead extensions, and Dips. Each exercise was for 5 sets up to 14 reps each.

Really felt the soreness in my legs today after yesterday’s leg and ab workout. Goes to show you how being out of the gym for 2 weeks can have an effect. That’s ok though. The time off around Thanksgiving and the following week was awesome.

For now, we’ll have to deal with the DOMS (Delayed Onset of Muscle Soreness). The price must be paid!

Hope you are having a great day today.

Tomorrow is a day off from the gym.

See you Thursday!!
