LOWER 1
Deadlift ---------------------------------- 1x5 230
Bulgarian Squat --------------------------- 2x8 90 (45 pounders)
GHR -------------------------------------- 5 Negatives
Cable Ab Pull Down ------------------------ 2x12 120
Russian Twist ----------------------------- 2x10

I did the Bulgarian Squats using three aerobic platforms (used to use two). Definitely added to the challenge. I think I'm getting better at the GHR. I do not have a GHR machine, so I have to do them on my knees with my ankles held down. It's still impossible to do one rep, but I'm making a little progress doing negatives.

This is the 6th time I've done this LOWER 1 workout and each time I still have DOMS for the next 2 days in my upper hams and lower glutes. I don't know if it's the Bulgarian Squats or the GHRs or maybe the combination of the two. Feels good though.

UPPER 1
Cable Rows ------------------------------- 2x10 1x8 125
Dumbbell Overhead Press (Scapular Plane) -- 3x8 60 (30 pounders)
Cable Pulldowns --------------------------- 2x8 1x5 125
One Arm Dumbbell Scapular Protractions ---- 2x25 45
Scapular Pushups -------------------------- 2x25

Shoulder felt good during DB OH Press. During my past UPPER 1 workouts I've been trying different weights to gauge how my shoulder feels. The last two I went straight 3x8 60 and did them easily. I plan to start working in a planned progression by adding some reps, then maybe some weight, and see how it goes.
