Thursday Night Back and Biceps

I had a very hectic day dealing with the Army and the Medical providers, trying to get husband signed into the medical hold unit in order to begin his transition out of the Army. We are both so ready for this to be over that we just want to be able to sit down for an hour and breath slowly and relax.

I headed out to the Gym about 11:15 pm and got in an excellent Back and Bicep workout...my arms are literally limp! But I feel good and luckily I do not have to lift my arms to type my posts or I would be in deep crap. LMAO

The Workout:

Back Rows:
Wide Grip 70 x 8 x 3
Regular Grip: 70 x 10 x 1; 80 x 8 x 1, 85 x 8 x 1; 90 x 8 x 1

Cable Pulldowns (Front): 50 x 8 x 1; 60 x 8 x 1; 70 x 8 x 1

Cable Pulldowns (Behind the neck): 50 x 8 x 1; 60 x 8 x 1; 70 x 8 x 1

Barbell Bicep Curls: (+ 15lb bar): 40 x 10 x 5

Dumbbell Bicep Curls (each side): 20 x 20 x 1; 15 x 20 x 1; 10 x 35 x 1 (to failure)

I am taking it easy on the back and shoulder during this week cycle. I am doing consistent workouts to maintain I am focusing on the arms and legs during this cycle. I went light on legs last cycle as they are my extra fast gainers and I struggle with added mass and size to my arms so they are the focus this time around.

I am feeling good and keeping my pain manageable, although it is getting harder and harder to do as it is slowly but surely increasing. But I will keep up the workouts, stay focused and keep moving towards my goals.

It feels good to be back home with my wonderful husband and the kids. Tomorrow (aka today) is a new day.
