29 July: 10 sets of 10
Today was my first "arm and shoulders" workout. I have to say, it is every bit as boring as I thought it would be. 1) Shrug-Pull-Snatch compound set. This is awesome for developing explosiveness and leads to nice size gains in the traps and upper back. Do 4 shrugs, 4 High Pulls, then 4 Hang Snatches without rest. That comprises 1 set. 115 x 4 sets x 4-4-4 reps 2) Seated side raises: 15s x 4 x 10 3A) Zottman curls (MUCH harder than I thought) 20s x 10 x 10 3B) Dumbbell Skull Crushers: 20s x 10 x 10 The Zottman curls hurt. The weight was too light for my tricep work, but I want to achieve a bit more balance between my tricep and bicep strength, so I'm limiting myself to the same weight for each movement.
