Military Press Day - Cycle 15

Military Press Day
Cycle 15


Overall Impression:
my traps were sore as hell today. i hate muscle soreness. I am shocked that they were this sore. not good.
The Workout:
Standing Barbell Military Press
- 155 lbs x 2 reps x 5 sets
- 115 lbs x 6 reps x 1 set
this was a really challenging session. my max on this lift has so far been 160 so i was doing 97% of my 1RM for doubles...

Cable Rows
- 130 lbs x 10 reps x 3 sets
simple linear progression here...

Dumbbell Rows
- 80 lbs x 7 reps x 2 sets
added 1 rep to both sets...im gonna back down on the weight next week and do 2-3 sets of 8-10 reps with 70 lbs.

Incline Dumbbell Flyes
- 10 lbs x 10 reps x 1 set
i havent done this exercise in so long i just wanted to see what it felt like...i took only 10 lbs because im cautious about my shoulder...anyways, this is a boring exercise...im gonna do a secondary press exercise next week. probably unilateral dumbbell flat bench press.

Facepulls
- 70 lbs x 10 reps x 1 set

Ab Work
