So, we're in the second three day cycle of our six day per week workoout regimen. Tough. Basically, everything we hit on Friday, we hit again today. Today was back, abs, and bi. Tomorrow is legs. Wednesday is chest, shoulders, and triceps.
These workouts just keep on rolling over you when you are cutting or dieting heavily. Basically, you don't recover because you do not have the nutritional support. The second time you hit a body part in a given week, you're still sore from the first, and the whole workout is just pain.
Nancy is still in heavy diet mode and really feeling it. We did a video podcast interview about that today, and we've decided to start posting them, so you'll see it soon.
In the mean time, here's today's workout. I report maxima in lbs. We did four of each superset (or compound set) with 12 reps each exercise except for abs which had 15–20 reps.
- Underhand cable row, EZ Bar Grip/ bicycle grip lat pulldown: 130/ 130. I think the max I have done here is 150.
- Kneeling narrow grip pull down/ straight arm pushdown with EZ Bar: 170/ 110. Again, within 20 lbs. of maximum. The first set is easy. It's after that gets hard.
- Lumbar extensions with 25 lbs. weight/ situps touching elbows to alternate knees (reps reported): 12/20.
- Dumbbell curls/ oblique crunches: 30 lbs./ 15 reps per side.
- Reverse Free Motion Curl/ BOSU crunches raising knees to alternate elbows while holding a medicine ball: 70 lbs./ 15 reps per side.
- Prone incline dumbbell curls: 25 lbs.
