Verse of the day: My eyes fail looking for your promise; I say, "when will you comfort me?"
It's been 9 weeks since my last "recovery" week, so it was about time. I usually train 5 days a week.Every so often I like to train everything the first half of the week and take a long weekend. Last week I did chest, shoulders and triceps on Monday; back and biceps on Tuesday; and legs on Wednesday; and rested Thursday- Sunday. It's also good because it shakes it up a bit. Here's how it looked:
Monday (chest/delt/tri):
Inline dumbbell press, bent cable fly superset with flat dumbbell press, dip superset with cable fly, machine shoulder press, seated lateral, rope push down, skull crusher, and seated dumbbell extension
Tuesday (back/bicep):
Pull-ups, row, v grip pull down, preacher curl, cambered curl and machine curl
Wednesday (legs)
Squat, reverse lunge, leg extensions superset with leg curl and calf press

Verse of the day: May those who fear You rejoice when they see me, for I have put my hope in You. Psalm 119:74
So, it has been 1 month since my last post. I've not missed a workout, and, no I didn't take it "easy over the holidays." I've been hitting it hard. The improvements are slow, but coming. I'm getting stronger, and my body weight has not greatly increased. I'm still training each muscle once per week with a medium volume and high intensity. Intensity techniques, such as rest pause sets and drop sets, are included here and there.
This is my chest workout this morning:
incline dumbbell press: 25s-25; 50s-8; 75s-6; 100s-6; 120s-8
bent cable fly (for upper chest): 70-12; 80-10; 90-7
flat dumbbell press: 70s-8,11,10
dip: 20
cable fly (upright for lower chest): 70-9
standing incline press: 155-11
