Looking For Those Big Arms

arms2.jpgToday is the day I love to hate.  It's arm day and I really do look forward to it but man oh man does it hurt.  But it really does hurt in a good way because I know that the pain is helping me improve and I have convinced myself that it only lasts for a few seconds.  It seems like minutes sometimes though.

Even though this is the first day of the week I am doing arms specifically I have already done a mini arm routine on Monday.  Chest and back exercises use quite a bit of arms even though it is not the focus of the exercises.  This is why I do legs on Tuesday, so that my arms have a day of rest for my arms after chest and back, and they are fresh for the Wednesday workout.

this is the last day of supersets and for arms and shoulders I will use a 202 tempo, 12 reps, and a 90 second rest between supersets.  I need all those 90 seconds to recover.

Seated DB Press– 35lbs@12reps, 37.5lbs@12reps, 37.5lbs@12reps
Lateral DB Raises– 20lbs@12reps, 20lbs@12reps, 20lbs@12reps, 20lbs@12reps

BB Curls– 65lbs@12reps, 65lbs@12reps, 65lbs@12reps, 65lb@12reps
Skull Crushers–65lbs@12reps, 60lbs@12reps, 60lbs@12reps, 60lbs@12reps

Incline DB Curls–30lbs@12reps, 30lbs@12reps, 30lbs@12reps, 30lbs@12reps
Cable Tricep Extensions–130lbs@12reps, 140

No abs or interval cardio today.  I already spent an hour in the gym and had to go to the store before the kids went to school since one of them needed some glue.  If not for having to do that I would have got everything done. 

That's okay though.  Something are more important than 20 minutes of cardio

On Friday i am going to check my weight and compare starting weights with current weights.

Have a good workout,
Jerry
