Upper Body Focus
Condition:
I feel really good. I slammed my right knee into something, so it’s a bit creaky, but it’s coming back around.
Warm Up:
Push Ups and Chin Ups
Some shoulder stretches
Workout:
DB Incline Prone Front Raises (Neutral Grip, slow tempo)
4 x 12 @ 13 lb DBs, 180 sec. rest
Chin Ups
Just messing with form on a few variations, rest varied
Cool Down:
Shoulder stretching
Notes:
I don’t like the way my posture is starting to look. I’d like to throw in some rowing movements too, but I can’t get enough ROM on any of them I’ve got available. I could do DB rows, but I can’t load my DBs heavy enough. I’ll figure something out.
And on chins, I was looking for comfortable variations that sync up my abs and lats (for stabilization purposes). While doing this, I found out my rhomboids are weak. I can’t even do one slow tempo chin to my sternum. Ugh. Like I said above, I’ll figure it out.
