Training Log: Entry 2131




Axle bench press

5x115
5x165
5x230
3x260
10x290
19x230


Notes: Warm ups felt terrible, but work sets were smooth.  I've noticed this trend with benching.  Left shoulder is still tweaked from squats, but it's different pain than I was dealing with impingementwise.


DB hammer curls 50
5x8


DB lateral raises 10
5x15


Notes: Performed in between sets of benching.

(2)1x10
(1)1x8
(0)1x9


5 minutes NG chins (various grips)
73


Notes: I like this approach, but I never seem to make much progress on it.  I think I need to start adding more time to get more volume in, and then gradually phase time out again and try to get in more density.

  General notes: Woke up at 195.2.  May have finally shed some of the weight I was holding.  Elbow is feeling better.  Not 100%, but in the right direction.




Got back from a medical appointment and got some cool news.

My resting heart rate is back down to 50. After the injury, it jumped to the mid 70s, and it's been slowly getting back to normal. I imagine the running has helped out as well.

Blood pressure came in at 110/72, which is pretty good for me.

Oh yeah, and my arm was so big I broke the blood pressure machine and they had to do it manually, haha.
