Figured I'd start a log. So, here it is.
Last 2 weeks has been bad for my training. Dropped at least 10 pounds from getting sick and not eating much, plus only working out a couple days in that time. This was my first back workout in the last 3 weeks.
Focused on middle back thickness today. Some day this week I'll add in wide grip pullups and pulldowns to a separate workout.
Old school t-bar rows
4 plates x 12
5 plates x 11
6 plates x 14
(training partner was late, had to wait for bar spotter to go heavier)
Barbell rows
135 x 8
225 x 10
315 x 15
365 x 8
Old school t-bar rows (finishing up)
7 plates x 12
8 plates x 7
Barbell deadlifts (I go light on barbell deadlifts. Because my legs are long, when I use barbells I'm forced to use my lower back rather than my legs. If I use a trap bar, I'm able to use my legs more effectively)
315 x 10
365 x 11
405 x 8
Row machine
210 x 15
230 x 12
250 x 11
270 x 9
->Drop set to 170 x 10
Seated rows
160 x 15
200 x 10
240 x 8
->Drop set to 160 x 10
My training partner recorded the last several reps of my 315 x 15 set. The weight felt much heavier than the last time I trained back, so I decided to bang it out for as many reps as possible.
