Guest guest Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Hi, This morning was PUB (up premix) going as heavy as possible. I tried to increase in weight, but to be honest, on a couple of the exercises I felt like I was going to hurt myself. Especially on the side lateral and front raises. I was just trying to go entirely too heavy for those exercises. Here's the way it went this time chest press- 20/22/25 back- pullovers- 25/30/35 double arm rows- 25's 2nd set singles (12 reps per side) 35 lb. 3rd set-double arm rows (8 reps) 35 lb. Shoulders- 10/12/15 I only used the 15's for the rear delts. When I tried to do the side lateral and front raises I was feeling like I was going to hurt myself so I dropped back to 12's. I really wasn't sure it was a good idea to even go with 12's.. not just because they were feeling heavy, but because I felt like I was having to swing them to get them up and just not good form at all. triceps- kickbacks-10/12/15 seated Triceps overhead press-20/25/30 Biceps- 12/15/17 (fought like hell to use those 17's. (With this exercise it was all about strength. I didn't feel like I was going to actually hurt anything.) So, that's it. I'm not happy with how it went because I wanted to go heavy, but it seemed like I struggled on a a lot of it to try and go very heavy. Off to the rest of my day.

Guest guest Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 You did a good job with listening to your body . Definiately time to lessen up when form starts slipping or you get jerky. Your weights were very impressive, especially for the triceps! Wow. mine have a lot of work to do to catch up to ya Darcy Hi, This morning was PUB (up premix) going as heavy as possible.
