Training Log: Entry 2148
Axle bench press
5xAxle
5x75
5x115
5x205
5x235
3x265
10x295
13x235
Notes: Been pushing training hard these past few days to compensate for my upcoming vacation. Was feeling pretty beat coming into this. Pleased with the top set. Misgripped the axle for FSL, so it was a bit of a fight for every rep.
NG chins
3x25
1x20
1x15
DB lateral raises 20lbs
5x12
Notes: Performed in between sets of bench.
Axle floor press 175
5x10
superset w/
DB hammer curls 50lbs
5x12
Notes: Think I'm going to try seated curls next as a variation. Not using the bench during floor press, it'll give me something to use it for, and might make things a little tougher.
T-bar rows DROPSET
5x5plates
7x4plates
9x3plates
11x2plates
13x1plate
Notes: Felt like my left serratus flew off my body on the set of 4 plates. I had been noticing this bugging me on these for a while now. Might have to give these a slight rest and let that heal up. I'm not hurt, but I know that's probably not good for me.
General notes: Woke up at 197.0. I'm feeling back to my old self. Training has really resumed normalcy, and I'm pushing myself just like I used to. Recovery isn't getting hammered too hard either.
Not sure how strong you were before with all the chain work you did but it seems like your bench has really benefited from the knee injury, haha. That set of 10 is good stuff.
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing you're going to want to avoid unilateral rows as well for your serratus, but if those don't hurt and T-bar rows do then consider me surprised.
Believe me, I plan to tell people that if they want a jacked upperbody, neck and core, all they gotta do is tear an ACL, haha.
DeleteIt's honestly just t-bar rows that set it off. I've noticed it bugging me for a while. DB rows should still work well, but I can get some troubleshooting in on it.
