After waking up this morning, and still feeling last night's workout, I decided to not go bike for an hour. I took the opportunity to get another hour so of sleep, and then come back stronger on Thursday morning.
This evening I hit the gym right after work, but tonight I was flying solo. My workout partner was a little under the weather, and didn't really want to push it. So I attack my back tonight. I started with my usual pull-ups. I was able to do 13 with body weight, and then 10 with 25lbs, 3 with 35lbs, and 2 with 45lbs.
I then jump over to bent over rows. I again ended @ 225 4x. Using the straps for these has also made a difference. I had a issue with holding 225 (or more) for any extended period of time, so I believe the straps give me a few extra reps.
I immediately went to shrugs @ 315, 3 sets, as many as I could do each set. Next was some straight bar bicep curls. 10 @ 65, 6 @ 85, 3 @ 105.
Deadlifts were next on the agenda. I ended my deadlift sets at 245 5 times. Next leg day I will go up to 265 on dead-lifts.
Finally I went to the preacher bench to do reverse curls. This is always a great way for me to burn out my biceps, plus it works my forearms a bit.
That was pretty much my night, i'm now ready to make my dinner, and then crash on the couch.
