Summer 2009 Training
Mesocycle 11 - Week 2
Upper Body Day
Beginning Thoughts:
I finished Harlan Coben's "No Second Chance". Pretty good. I liked it. Workout:
Close Grip Bench Press:
185 lbs x 2 reps
205 lbs x 2 reps
205 lbs x 2 reps
215 lbs x 1 rep
225 lbs x FAIL
205 lbs x 2 reps
225 lbs x FAIL
215 lbs x 1 rep
My body is strange. So are my tiny wrists. Tiny wrists make it hard to do this shit.
Chest Supported Rows:
135 lbs x 5 reps
135 lbs x 5 reps
180 lbs x 4 reps
180 lbs x 2 reps
135 lbs x 6 reps
135 lbs x 6 reps
I love this exercise. At the same time though: it is hard to do because I need to flex my core and do everything in one breath.
Unilateral Standing Shoulder Press:
26 kgs x 5 reps
30 kgs x 2 reps
30 kgs x 3 reps
30 kgs x 3 reps
Something strange happened here. On the first set with 30 kgs, I almost blacked out. I have never experienced this before. I saw stars everywhere and I had to put the dumbbell down after my two reps and close my eyes and try not to fall over. Sudden weakness. Fucking weird. I had some water and then everything was normal. I wonder if it could have been my pre workout meal.
High Cable Rows with Wide Bar:
70 kgs x 8 reps
90 kgs x 5 reps
80 kgs x 6 reps
80 kgs x 6 reps
80 kgs x 6 reps
Dumbbell Front Raises:
8 kgs x 10 reps x 4 sets
These were alternated with High Cable Rows.
Banded Shrugs:
Blue x 12 reps x 4 sets
Decline Dumbbell Punches:
10 kgs x 12 reps x 4 sets Videos:
Too much rush today. Next week I am gonna try to get some bench clips. Overall Impression:
My diet has been very low calorie for the last week or so. It took it's effect on me today. I was damn tired and worn out before I even hit the gym.
