Recovery Session
Front Squat
3x3
145 lbs
Notes: Very good. Was able to hit a good depth. I'm 10 lbs away from my tested 3RM, so hopefully we'll see some PRs pretty soon.
Press
5x5
105 lbs
Notes: Got it this time. You might recall that I couldn't lock out the final rep last week. I got it without much of a fight this time. Increase 2.5 for next week.
Chin-ups (neutral grip)
3 sets: 8-6-6 reps
BW+15 lbs
Notes: Felt stronger than last time. I'm going to try to keep the volume as even as possible for a while, so look for increases across sets rather than an all-out effort on the first set.
Dips
3x9
Bodyweight
Notes: These were done in alternating sets with chins since I use the same station for both. I decided to move dips to this session. Hopefully it will not affect my decline PR attempt on Saturday.
Accessory
45 degree extensions
EZ-bar curls
Notes: Got the guns nice and pumped. I've decided to stop worrying about reps on curls and just go by feel. I get too caught up in whether or not I've added a rep from last time, and I ignore how my biceps actually feel.
Comments
Really good workout. Everything felt good and it gave me a good "cool-off" from Tuesday's volume session. Looking forward to cranking out some PRs on Saturday.
