Bench Press Day
Cycle 5
Overall Impression:
weather is awesome today....70-81F. i love this. been carrying a stop watch to the gym off late The Workout:
Bench Press
- speed-strength work @ 75% of 1RM with 155 lbs x 2 reps x 6 sets
- Incline Close Grip Bench Press = 165 lbs x 4 reps
strength-speed work was alright. rested 60-70 seconds between sets. Incline CGBP was pretty cool. i just wanted to change things. im bored of flat bench pressing.
Pull-ups
- 8 reps + 7 reps + 5 reps = 20 reps
3 sets to failure all with over 3 minute rest intervals.
Skull Crushers and Bent Arm Pull-overs Superset
- 50 lbs x 5 reps x 5 sets and 50 lbs x 5 reps x 5 sets respectively
slow tempo overall. heavy focus on negatives for the bent arm pull-overs. it was a good workout.
Ab Work
skipped...i was lazy (damnit!)

What kind of pullup numbers were you getting before? I can't remember. I know that's a good improvement. You should be able to pull out a 3x8 or so soon.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

Quote:
Pull-ups = 6 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 22 reps

this was to failure and just before i started density training.

I'd say thats definately progress. Just look at your first 3 sets compared to one another. Your work now is obivously much better. Had you done 2 more sets this last time you did pull ups you would have far out done 22 reps.
Right on man.

Really, they're like Chucks? Because chucks are getting a bit expensive for what they are.
Yeah. Great progress on the pullups.
