-Notes
-Finally blasted my triceps using a different exercise, I usually hit them with just the arm extensions at the end of my chest workouts because I wanted all my other muscle groups to catch up first but now I feel it would be better just to hit them hard anyway.
-Had a banana pre workout and ate some leftover Chinese food post workout.
-Session lasted no more than 45 minutes.
-Overall I felt good after this workout session, no nausea or dizziness. Arms were showing a bunch of veins so that was motivating to see in the mirror while doing hammer curls lol
-The Reverse Curl and the Hammer Curl were super-sets.
