Exercise Log 6.3.14 (Bench Press & Deadlift Day)
Another quick log this was Bench Press/Deadlift day. Did these at my old gym, LA Fitness, out of convience.
Iso-Lateral Chest Press: Using this to replace the bench press. Felt the shoulder strain come out of the picture when the starting bars were moved a little forward. Good isolation but had to go light and focus on the chest isolation to prevent shoulder strain. Shoulders recover slowly, but hoping in a couple months they’re at 100% again. 8 sets of 5 reps @ 130lbs.
Deadlifts: 3 sets of 1 rep @ 255lbs + 3 fast reps @ 225lbs. Drop set of 12 reps @ 190lbs.
Next the accessories…
T-Bar Shoulder Press / Rows: My favorite superset for this day. 3 sets of 8 reps each @ 90lbs then 1 set of 8 reps each @ 100lbs. Very hard exercise still for me particularly on the presses.
Iso-Lateral Incline Chest Press: 4 sets of 8 reps @ 45lb plate each side. Plus the machine weight this was probably 106lbs. Conservative weight level due to shoulder issues.
Bosu Ball Curl Bar Overhand Grip Curls / Overhead Tricep Extensions: Balanced on a bosu for extra stability practice. 4 sets of 8 reps each @ 50lbs. Slow, controlled form.
That’s it, quick one had to skirt out to get some work done.
