- 10m Kroc Rows w/35kg DB: 5/5/5/5/5/5/5 = 35 total reps (up the weight next time, consistently good ROM, I like these heavy always)
- 10m DB Concentration Curls SS w/ LTE's: (15kg DB for curls, 35kg on LTE's) 8/5,5/5,5/5,5/5,5/5 = 28 curls, 25 LTE's (will probably push for more reps on LTE's the next time I do them, a 15kg DB on Conc Curls is actually around my 10RM, I decided quickly to stick with 5's for subsequent sets, since the goal here is never going to failure)
Notes/Observations:
- Feeling good, particularly about my refined Pressing technique. CGBP was alright, not the best (my benching never is), but I felt a lot tighter and more in control.
- Would be nice to be working with 2 plates + on the CGBP for sets. Next year maybe? Can I make that kind of progress without severe weight gain and/or steroids? Thoughts?
- Never underestimate upper back work, it's really improved my mobility and Pressing technique.
