Yesterday when I got home from work I did the ab work from Kick, Punch & Crunch and then did 20 minutes of yoga from Karen Voight. Man, do I really need to start stretching more. My muscles in my entire body are so tight they hurt. Literally. This is not DOMS, it's pain from my muscles feeling like tight rubber bands. So I'm going to do yoga at least 3 times a week. Hopefully I can make time for it, it's only 20 minutes.
Today was Pure Strength Back & Biceps. I added an extra set to any 2 set exercise. Had a good workout but it didn't feel that hard. Compared to the other workouts I've been doing, this one was easy.
BACK
T-Bar Rows w/u: 45# – 16 reps
T-Bar Rows: 60# – 3 sets/10 reps
Barbell Bent over Rows: 60# – 3 sets/10 reps
***Felt really strong with this exercise.
One Arm Rows: 30# – 3 sets/10 reps
Shrugs: 75# – 3 sets/20 reps
***I love shrugs, it's my favorite exercise for back. And I don't care what Cathe says, I like going heavy with this exercise. I used my Barbell for this.
BICEPS
Barbell Curls: 55# – 2 sets/10 reps; 45# - 1 set/10 reps
***Wow, I felt really weak with this exercise. Not sure why.
Seated Alt. Hammer Curls: 15's – 20 reps
***Should have used 17's.
Seated Sweep Curls: 15's – 24 reps
***Should have used 17's.
Barbell Negative Curls: 40# – 3 sets/10 reps
Concentration Curls: 25#/12 reps; 20# - 2 sets/12 reps
That is all...
