531 Upper

2/3/10

Warmups
Floorpress med. grip work up to 230x5, 260x3, then 300x1 (misloaded bar 10 pounds too heavy one side) fixed it then 290x6 (1)
Incline BB press medium grip 3x5/ 185, 225, 245
DB rollbacks w/ mini bands 4x10/ 35, 40, 45x7, 30x10
Low pulley rows w/ v-bar 4x10/ 200, 225, 250, 275
Halbert raises 3x12 light
Light Zottman curls (for elbow rehab)
Ball crunches and leg lifts 3 sets each

Continuing my streak of not being able to count (add, subtract, multiply, blah blah blah) I stuck a lonely 10'er on one side of the bar. Of course I was quickly able to deduce this error of addition and corrected it to hit a PR. For the incline BB press, I stuck a weight plate under the bench to change the angle slightly (flattened it out a bit). The rollbacks are done by holding a mini band in my hands and stretching it across my upper back. The Halbert raises are from George Halbert's benchpress video (highly recommended if you can find a copy of it). To perform them, lie face down on an incline bench, letting 2 DBs hang underneath you (no jokes), then swing them back towards your feet, reverse direction and swing them past your head so your arms are 90* from your body with your elbows bent. Oh crud, that sounds clear as mud. Try this link instead.
