Today wasnt as hellish as leg day and I wasnt drained but I was fatiqued. I left having the feeling that I could have done more but knew that I in fact couldnt, anyone ever have that?
The board work was fun and my tris are tired, I let paused on the board and let it sink in while staying tight, very awesome. Im not sure if I progressed weight-wise the way Im supposed to so feel free to chime in. The lockouts were really hard and I had to decrease the weight considerably because I didnt perform them at the appropriate height so they should go up considerably next time. I had a good pump from the pullups and was happy to still be able to do at least 10.
The isolation work was very interesting, particulary because I havent done it for those area in such a long time. Maybe it was the reps but I felt a little sting to ego when I found that I was struggling with 65lbs on curls for 12 reps. On the plus side, I left the gym looking jacked
