M7 W1 Press Day

Spring 2009 Training
Mesocycle 7 - Week 1
Press Day

Beginning Thoughts:

I finally got some decent carbs in yesterday. I feel good. I actually feel less bloated. Weird.

Workout:

High Incline Bench Press:
95 lbs x 8 reps
135 lbs x 6 reps
155 lbs x 6 reps
175 lbs x 4 reps
185 lbs x 3 reps
205 lbs x FAIL
185 lbs x 2 reps
165 lbs x 4 reps
155 lbs x 6 reps
I might do some quality volume work next week.

Medicine Ball Twists:
15 lbs x 10 reps x 6 sets
I did these super-setted with some of the High Incline Bench Press sets. 

Density Training Zone 1:
Pull-ups = 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 40 reps
Push-ups = 10 + 10 + 10 + 6 + 6 + 8 = 50 reps
This was very hard. I am damn proud for nailing those 40 reps on pull-ups. Not all sets were super-setted though.... 

Density Training Zone 2:
Straight Arm Lat Pull-downs = 40 lbs x 12 reps x 3 sets
Floor Skull Crushers = 60 lbs x 8 reps x 3 sets
God I hate arm work....

Nothing special to record...

Overall Impression:

Gonna be weighing myself to check on progress in a few days....Minor changes FTW.
