Chest/Back

A1.Hammer Strength Bench Press
5 x 155kg
5 x 175kg
5 x 175kg
3 x 175kg
3 x 175kg

A2.Ghetto DB Row
5 x 55kg
5 x 55kg
5 x 55kg
5 x 55kg
5 x 55kg
Our DBs only go up to 45kg so I had to tie a 10kg DB to the handle of the 45kg DB with a strap that was lying around the gym. It made it twice as difficult because the smaller DB kept on bouncing around as I went through the movement.

B1.Incline DB Press
8 x 40kg
8 x 42.5kg
8 x 45kg
I should have started with the 45kg DB from the beginning.

B2.WG Pullups
12 x bw
6 x bw
8 x bw (wtf?)

Shoulders

C1.Lateral Raises
15 x 10kg
15 x 10kg
15 x 10kg

C2.Upright Rows
15 x 50kg
12 x 50kg
12 x 50kg

Finished with 15mins on the treadmill. I'm going to need to get back into my cardio, I'm feeling squishier than usual in my midsection.
