May 3 - Upper Body

I realize now that I completely skipped writing in my lower body workout from last Thursday... oh well... it was similar to the last one but without the machines.. I did front squats in the place of the leg presses and some RFESS's in the place of the leg extensions...

Today I tried to get back into training my upper body. I've been having some issues with the elbow/shoulder, but things turned out ok today:

A) Standing Overhead Press (barbell)
45x8
95x8
115x8
115x6

B1) Upright Row
60x10
70x10
70x8
B2) DB Front Raise
15x3x10

C1) Triceps Pushdown
60x8
50x12
50x10
C2) DB Hammer Curl
35x3x8/side

I could remember the rest of Kirk's workout here, as I wasn't planning to lift this morning... but I felt better than expected while I was at the gym. We had Ultimate games on Saturday and Sunday and I played a little baseball Sunday too. I expected to be rundown, but that wasn't the case....

It does look like the vertical pressing wasn't too bad on the shoulder, so I might stick with that for a while.. I need to get stronger than 115 anyway!
