4-9-08: Chest and Biceps, namaste yoga, no cardio

The combination of chest and biceps makes for a tough morning. Earl and I start this morning with incline presses. I end up doing a total of 6 sets. The intent is to go as heavy as possible. I end up at 225 for 2 reps. My last set is a rep set at 185 for 5 reps. We then move immediately to flat bench dumbbell presses. We do a total of 3 sets of anywhere from 5-8 reps. Again the objective is to go as heavy as possible. I end up at 90lbs for 5 strong reps. Our last chest exercise is dips. We do three sets and each set to failure (anywhere between 15-20 reps).

We are going to start biceps with a supset sequence Earl and I have never done. We take a standard 45 lb. barbell and put 10lbs. on each side. We do 10 reps with a close grip, 10 more with a wider grip and then the last 10 with an even wider grip. Their is no rest between the reps. We do a total of 3 sets of this insanity. We then move to isolation curls. I grab 30lbs. and do each set to failure (15-17 reps). The last 4-5 reps are sloppy on form but the burn is intense. We do three sets of these. The last arm exercise is cable curls. I do 8 reps of 110-70 with no rest between sets.

Before we get started this week I want to provide a progress report. I currently weigh 173 lbs. and am down to 11% body fat. I am two weeks into my contest prep and the diet and extra cardio are starting to have an effect. I absolutely hate doing cardio but it is necessary for cutting out the extra body fat. I have provided some updated pictures below.

I injured my right knee about 4 months ago so squatting has been out of my rotation for at least that long.

Our arm and chest routine over the past several weeks has left me bruised and battered. On arms there has been a shift to a lot of supersets accompanied with high reps. Earl and I will take a break from that this week and go heavy with few reps. Before we get to that it is time for chest. We have also been going heavy on chest over the past several weeks. Today we will shoot for higher reps and lighter weight.

On biceps we will start our with an exercise we did about a month ago. You grab a standard 45lb. barbell and put 10lbs. on each side.

Abs: We are going to do something today my friend “Splash” enjoys doing. One person lays on a matted surface, raises his arms over his head and grabs something stationary (since there are three of us we grab one of our partners ankles). Keeping your knees straight you raise your legs straight up. The other person pushes your ankles down as hard as possible. You objective is to not let your feet hit the ground and get that back up to ready position as fast as possible. We do 4 sets of 25 reps
