2/25/08 Upper Body Workout 1

BENCH PRESS 5RM - 270x5*
when i went for the 5rm i had one of the student athletic trainers spot me, the first 3 reps went up nice and smooth, the fourth rep was a little slower but i got it up, then when it came to the fifth rep i brought the bar down, touched my chest, and while it was on the way up the spotter started touching the bar admittedly the bar was going up slow, but it was going up none-the-less and i think i could have gotten it if he hadn't touched the bar, so now next week i am going to have to go for a clean 270x5 again

FLOOR PRESS 3RM - 255x3
this lift was real tough, so i'm real happy that i got it

DB INCLINE BENCH PRESS 3X8-10 - 70x10, 70x10, 70x9
didn't take enough rest time before the last set b/c the first two sets went up pretty easily so i guess i didn't think that i'd need to rest as much for the last set, i was wrong

JS ROWS 5X5 - 225x5, 225x5, 225x5, 225x5, 225x5

BARBELL SHRUGS 3X8-10 - 255x10, 255x10, 255x10

FACEPULLS 3X8-10 - 132x10, 132x10, 132x10
i'm starting to really, really like doing this lift

SKULLCRUCHERS 3X10-12 - 105x12, 105x12, 105x12

EZ BAR CURLS 3X8-10 - 90x10, 90x10, 90x10, 90x10*
on the last set i got the first 8 reps and then i just stood and held the weight, counted to 10 in my head, and got the last 2 reps so i figured i'd count that as getting all 10 reps
