M26 W1 Full Body Training

FULL BODY TRAINING - Mesocycle 26 Week 1

Last week was hell at work. I worked 14-16 hours for 4 days straight. I'm not bitching. I'm just giving excuses for not updating this log in a week!!!

Well, the bad news doesn't stop here. Last week I couldn't workout 4 times. I went in on Wednesday just to do some basic stuff because I had 45 minutes to train before the gym closed.

275 lbs x 1 rep
Decided to stop here.

Very good session. 495 was more difficult than last time. Those 4 singles with 455 are actually 2x2 sets because I was running out of time. On the whole it was an awesome session and having Kaizzad and Sheru with Devraj and Lorelli out there was just wonderful.

Standing Crunches on the Lat Pulldown Machine:
77.5 lbs x 12 reps x 3 sets
