Very solid blowtorch Tuesday workout. Workout was quick and efficient thanks to reduced rest periods, and energy and pump were up thanks to rest and caffeine…
Chest: DB incline presses (2×15,10—Stage); DB incline flyes (1×12(10) + X Reps); Dips (1×15—Stage) ss DB flyes (1×10(8)—Drop + X Reps)
Lats: Parallel-grip chins (2×12,8); Chins (1×12) ss DB pullovers (1×12); Chins (1×10 + X Fade) ss Under-grip chins (1×8)
Triceps: DB extensions (2×12,8 + X-Rep presses); Overhead extensions (1×12(8)—X Pause + X Reps); Kick backs (1×12(8)—X Pause + X Fade)
Abs: Knee ups (2×12) ss Bench V-ups (2×10) ss Full-range crunches (2×12,10 + X Reps)
Note: My split is based on the Ripping Phase Routine in the Beyond X-Rep Muscle Building e-book.
Blowtorch Tuesday Summary
Workout was on fire today. Chest felt full and strong, lats felt very much in tune with every rep, and moving to more basic moves for triceps seemed to kick up the feel a bit. Strength was good on everything and the resulting pump motivated further momentum. Everything stayed the same routine-wise, with the exception of triceps modifications, and I’m making it a point to remember that I should be keeping rest periods at 30-40 seconds between all sets. That makes everything more efficient, including my lung capacity. LOL
