Usually don't do double days but I've consumed enough and will consume more calories. Plus this town is boring and I have nothing to do, body feels great so why not?
Shoulders
Standing military press: 5x5
Upright row bb: 4x5
Arnold presses: 4x6
Reverse flies -- bb side delt raises: 5x8-10
Side delt raise w/cables: 4x8 each arm
Db side delt raise -- front raise: 4x12-15 (just to get a good stretch/burn)
Did traps in between some sets, didn't really keep track how many sets or reps.

Shoulders and tris today, Shoulder was really bad, kept it light (175) for high reps on the shoulder presses and did some machine work. French curls and cables for tris. Shoulder feels better after doing some severe range of motion reps.

Back day is my least favorite day. Well just before legs...

A medication has been making me feel nauseous and sickly the past couple weeks. Hope to get out of the funk soon.

I use to not like legs, until I started seeing them grow. Actually do legs twice a week now. There's not a day I don't enjoy training.

Don't get me wrong. I love hitting the gym up. Just have some exercises I enjoy doing SOOO much more than others. Maybe need to switch up routine and that may help.
Seeing the gains also really helps to motivate me. Maybe have to start looking for them more in the legs.
No gym for me today yet. Sick kiddo so may head up to gym a little later and see what I can get done after she goes to bed.
