A picture of me altered to have green skin and look anorexic

Believe me, nothing is trivial.

I am sick. First time this year. It’s destroying my diet.

I worked out anyway. Headcold I told myself. Whatever.

Workout for Tuesday, March 16, 2010

Pulldown

  1. 45lbs x 5
  2. 45 x 6
  3. 50 x 5
  4. 70 x 3
  5. 90 x 2
  6. 110 x 3 (form is good, weight stays)
  7. 100 x 4 (form is good, weight stays)
  8. 90 x 5 (EASY, weight increases)

Incline Press

  1. 45lbs x 5
  2. 45 x 5
  3. 45 x 5
  4. 60 x 3
  5. 75 x 2
  6. 90 x 5 (easy, increase)
  7. 75 x 6 (good, increase)

Something I have to note, though, is that the weight jumps on the incline machine only go 15lbs. at a time. I really don’t think I’m going to be able to push 105lbs., but I also think 90lbs is too easy for this rep range, so I’ll just try to get in one or two more reps. I’ll set the ceiling for this lift at 8 reps at the present weight. A 15-pound jump would be an increase of nearly 16%, which would probably knock out like six reps from the previous weight. So I’ll wait until I could crank out at least two reps before I attempt an increase. My math kind of sucks.

Lateral Raises

  1. 30lbs x 3
  2. 45 x 2
  3. 55 x 8 (easy, increase)
  4. 50 x 6 (okay; increase)
  5. 45 x 6.5 (was getting weak but still more than five reps, increase!)

I abbreviated the warm-up for this exercise because my shoulders are already pretty warm, generally, from the first two exercises. This turned out to be a winning idea.

I was planning on doing twists but these black guys were having a threesome under the pulleys so I decided against that.

Met this cool dude working his anterior delts next to me, name’s BRIAN. He’s like twice my age and his shoulders are the size of my head. I like that guy. He was black too.
