I made up my own rotation for the next 8 weeks. Working a 3 day split and today was Chest & Tri's. I've decided to go a little lower with weights and concentrate more on the move and contraction with this rotation using higher reps. It's REALLY hard for me to lower my weights. And even though I did lower them today, for some odd reason they seemed really heavy. Kind of bummed me out. I felt like a total wimp.
[font color=indigo]CHEST[/font]
1 minute rest between each set
Pushups: 20/15/15
[font color=blue]***Used my Perfect Pushup things. Love those![/font]
1:30 minute rest between each set
Barbell Bench Press:
90# - 10/10/10
[font color=blue]***Concentrated on lowering the weight all the way to my chest and using my chest for the pushing movement. This felt REALLY heavy to me. Maybe the pushups fatigued my muscles more then I thought they would?[/font]
Incline Dumbbell Press:
35's - 10/10/10
[font color=blue]***These also felt very heavy. I almost dropped to 30's but decided to keep going.[/font]
Decline Flyes:
25's - 15/15
[font color=blue]***These felt good. Got a great burn.[/font]
[font color=indigo]TRICEPS[/font]
1:30 minute rest between each set
Close Grip Barbell Press:
85# - 9
80# - 10/8
[font color=blue]***Wow, I could not believe how heavy these felt. I know I've done this exercise with 95# easily. WTF???[/font]
Lying Barbell Extensions:
50# - 12/12/10
[font color=blue]***These felt good. Last set was a struggle toward the end.[/font]
Weighted Bench Dips:
50# - 10/10/10
[font color=blue]***Goal was 15 reps. Didn't make it.[/font]
That is all....
