mobsterone Posted July 20, 2023 Author Share Posted July 20, 2023 [B]Thursday[/B] @ Powerhouse. Huffed n puffed cos of the volume. Spoke to and did a bit of work after with a buddy who had torn [B]all[/B] his knee tendons when 600kg of steel fell on them. After a BBC Wales TV crew were down the Wetlands so the local community admin had me shoot down to meet the personality. Bicep/Tricep work [U]Bi[/U] Started out using the machine but stopped after set 1 as the inside of my elbows did not like this. Switched to Alt Dumbbell Curls concentrating on the contraction Machine warm up (top plate) x 20, 20kg x 12 and then 1 x 40kg x 11 Dumbbells to 15kg @ x 4 x 11 reps [U]Tri[/U] Machine warm up (top plate) x 20, 20kg x 12 and then 1 x 47.5kg x 5 x 11 TPD on multi-angle stack x 20 reps ALT DB Curls 7kg x 20 reps @ Bwt: 322lbs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobsterone Posted August 1, 2023 Author Share Posted August 1, 2023 [B]Tuesday[/B] One of those days.
