Upper Body 8/12/2024

Today was an upper body workout, and it was a great one. I made good progress with incremental increases on about every lift.  

Here are the details:

Cable Chest Press: 40x15, 100x5, 135 x5, 135 x5, 135 x5

Seated Cable Row: 60x15, 130x5, 215x6, 217.5 x5, 217.5 x5

Cable Chest Fly: 125 x5, 125 x5, 125 x5
Weighted pullup (neutral grip): +32.5 x5, +32.5 x5, +32.5x4

Smith Machine OH Press: +55 x5, +55 x5, +55 x5
15° Trap Shrugs: 285 x5, 285x5, 285 x5

Single Arm Cable Side Lateral: 25 x10, 50 x 7, 50 x 6
Face Pull, Seated: 70 x13, 100 x?, 130 x10

Rope Pushdown: 130 x10, 130 x12
Precher Curl Machine: 65 x76 65 x5

Weighted Chruch 130x10, 130x12, 130x12

I made a change to the last delt superset. I have felt the seated side laterals the way I was doing them as well the the reverse laterals needed a change, so I went to a single arm, standing side lateral and a face pulls. I will take a week or two to get the weights right, but it felt great.

My food intake over the weekend was not perfect. We went to a birthday party for a granddaughter, and I allowed myself to have two very small pieces of gluten-free pizza, two naked chicken wings, and a scoop of low carb ice cream. I passed on the cake.

It felt great and I am off to a good start start for this week. I am back to my normal diet (carnivore).
