Sleep was terrible. I would've slept in and taken a rest day if I thought I could have fell back asleep. All that considered, this was an ok workout.


7/31/24

Lat pulldown: 165x10, 3x12x135
Seated plate loaded row: 250x10, 8, 190x13, 12
DB preacher curls: 25x12, 10, 10

Lat prayers: 110x12, 11, 10
Bayesian curls: 52.5x12, 10, 8
Ab wheel: 12, 10, 5

Incline treadmill: 18 minutes - 11%/2.6 mph (133 HR)

Weights felt heavy today.


8/1/24

Y raises: 25x12, 12, 9, 8
Behind the back raises: 25x12, 11, 11, 8

Leg extensions: 200x12, 10, 9, 8

Elliptical 23 minutes (129 HR)

170 split squat proved to be just too heavy. I wouldn't mind dropping weight even further and doing higher reps but then I reach cardio respiratory failure before muscular failure, which kinda defeats the purpose.


8/3/24

Seated plate loaded row: 250x12, 11, 8, 200x15, 8
DB preacher curl: 25x13, 11, 11
Seated cable row: 165x12, 10, 8

Straight bar lat prayers: 3x11x110
Bayesian curls: 52.5x13, 11, 9
Calf raises: +50x20, 17, 15, 15

Preacher curls are weird. The first few reps on the concentric feel like I'm doing nothing. By the time I'm done though, it burns quite a bit, especially at the lengthened portion of the lift.


8/4/24

Cable lateral raises: 35x10, 7+1, 5, 30x8
Behind the back raises: 3x10x25
Cable flies (high): 65x16, 12, 8

8/6/24

Prone leg curls: 110x12, 10, 8, 8
Adductors: 130x15, 10, 10
Leg press: 380x20, 3x15x410
Seated leg curls: 135x13, 10, 9
Leg extensions: 205x12, 10, 9, 8

Incline treadmill: 30 minutes (126 HR)

Recording leg press sets by plates per side gets clunky if you're doing something other than whole plates.

I suppose there wasn't a whole lot of glutes in this workout but that's ok; I'm never getting on a stage in a thong, and split squats will hit glutes later in the week in any event.
Everything felt pretty good.


8/7/24

Lat pulldown: 165x12, 7+5, 10
Seated plate loaded row: 260x12, 8, 210x10, 10, 10
Bayesian curls: 55x7, 50x11, 8, 8

Behind the back raises: 25x13, 11, 10
Incline DB bench: 65x10, 7, 7, 5
Straight bar push down: 95x20, 12, 10, 12, 10, 10
Katana extensions: 40x6, 30x9
Ab wheel: 2x5

Incline treadmill: 26 minutes (103 HR)

I decided to try 60 second rests between tricep pushdown sets and liked it. I normally rest 90 seconds between most sets but it just seems unnecessarily long for iso exercises.


8/9/24

Prone leg curls: 110x13, 8, 8, 8
Adductors: 100x25, 130x17, 15, 15

8/10/24

Seated plate loaded row: 260x10, 8, 8, 8

Supinated straight bar seated cable row: 165x10, 8, 120x12
Lat prayers: 125x11, 10, 10
Bayesian curls: 3x10x50

Pretty lackluster session. Sleep wasn't great and had a headache. Tried supinated cable rows for the first time and really didn't like them. Neutral grip or pronated just feels the best for me.

About to take a one week vacation. I definitely plan on staying active but might ease up on lifting a little, especially if the hotel gym is as I expect it to be. We'll see.


8/17/24

Y raises: 20x15, 13, 10
Behind the back raises: 3x10x20

Walked/hiked just about every day this past week, but took the last 7 days completely off from lifting. Eased back into things today.

Bayesian curls: 50x7, 8, 7

Elliptical 30 minutes (126 HR)

Bought versa gripps and used them for first time today. They were a little pricey, but what a difference they make from my 11+ year old iron mind straps.


8/20/24

Prone leg curls: 115x9, 8, 8
Adductors: 85x20, 130x20, 15, 11

Right knee feels iffy so went very light on hack squat on leg extensions.

Started talking to a buddy during leg extensions and didn't track last sets.

Lat prayers: 130x10, 9, 7
Calf raises: +50x20, 20, 15, 15

Shot around 25 minutes (126 average HR)

Was hoping for some rep prs today but it wasn't meant to be. I was also going t o do Bayesian curls, but I was cooked after lat prayers, so decided to just do calf raises and quit.

Straight bar pushdown: 105x8, 8, 8, 6
Calf raises: 3 sets to failure

I rested 60 seconds between sets on tricep exercises, hence the drop off in reps between sets.
