- Dumbell Flyes: 5 x 10-15 (15's used for the first set , 25's for the rest of the sets)*I actually did 22 reps with the 15's as a warm up*
- Incline Dumbell Press: 5 x 10-12 (20's for first set, 25's for the rest) *15 reps with the 20's for warm up*
- Decline Press: 4 x 10-12 (25 pounds on each side for the first set, moved up to 35 for one set and then 40 pounds for the last two) *20 reps with the 25 pounds for warm up*
- Bench Press flat with smiths machine: 5 x 10-12 (bar + twenty pounds, bar + 30 pounds) *just the bar for twenty reps to warm up*
Notes:
- I don't really like doing decline press so sometimes I half ass it. I should have forced myself to do another set. I did one set of warm up and 3 working sets. I should do at least four working sets. I sometimes struggle to figure out how I should sit to make this press work best. Yesterday I sat with the handles at chest level and my shoulders back. It must have worked because the top part of my chest is sore as fuck!
- I was very motivated today after going to the Arnold Expo over the weekend. I met Dana Linn Bailey who is such an inspiration to me.
- I'm starting to rely more on dumbells and barbells to train rather than machines. I like learning to control the weight in my hands. I feel like machines are much easier!! Easier = not enough of a challenge.
