That sounds like a good back/bis workout, Huy!

I was a little surprised @ hitting 315 for 3 reps. My form wasn't perfect but it was passable. I've only been doing GMs for a little while now but I love em! I feel like it's helped me already when it comes to my squat and deadlift form/back positioning.

Squatted and did some light calves today ... pretty light day, all around volume wise.

Squats (front/close)
Set 1 - 95x5
Set 2 - 135x5
Set 3 - 185x3
Set 4 - 225x3
Set 5 - 255 (failed on this one lol)

Calves (leg press machine)
3x10 @ 630

How many days in a row now, Charlie? You are a machine!

Back today....bounced up and down in weight on bent over rows, holding the contraction on the light sets for a 2 count. Just felt good, no other rhyme or reason to the bouncing.

Bent over rows 205, 205, 245, 205, 265, 205, 285, 205, 295, 205
T-bar rows 225, 250, 270, 250
Widel cable rows 220, 240, 260

Good days, Ken and Charlie!

King of Rows? I could live with that. :-)

Shoulder day today. Left shoulder (the bad one) kept me up a good part of the night and was still hurting when I got up. Wasn't sure I was going to be bale to train, but first set told me I could get through it, even with the discomfort. I only did presses and shrugs, but I even bounced around a little on the presses like I did yesterday on the rows, kept me interested and motivated anyway. :-)

Military press 135, 155, 175, 195, 155, 205, 155, 185, 135
Barbell Shrugs 225, 255, 285, 315, 365, 315, 275

Gym got a heavier kettlebell :-) I weighed the heaviest they have and it is 28kg. New one is 32kg.

75+20 reps=95 swings at 32 kg
Abs
Speed Bench 3x5 225 different grip width on each set
Cold Shower

I really should have done measurements before changing my workout and diet. My waist is definitely smaller, abs are more visible, and overall just leaner. I think the target date for a routine change is end of July. Probably going to move over to something with higher volume.

My gym just got the Olympic platform along with the bumpers plates. I love messing with these. Probably do some heavy deads today, wish me luck. Haven't deadlifted heavy in a long time. Making sure I get at least 3 meals in before I train later.

swingerofbirches 05:31 PM 06-30-2015
lol Chris
Good lift man!

Get those deadlifts, Huy! You usually kill me! I would like to be a better deadlifter. Let us know how it goes.

Rock on!

Wife wanted to do a WOD after work so I tried to keep pace but I was still pretty burned from lunch.

Push-ups 100, took me a bunch of sets
Sit-ups 100, took me almost as many sets
Bw squats 4x25

Have a good game Tom!

I love the bumper plates, really prefer using them to iron.
