Workout #2 (B)
1 - Ipsilateral Back Lunge and Shoulder Press 3x12 @ 25lbs.

2A - Leg Lowering Drill 3x12 @knees bent 90 degrees
2B - Incline Lower Trap Raise 1x8 @ 15lbs, 2x12 @10lbs. (ea. hand)

3A - Pushup 1x12, 1x7
3B - Hip-Thigh Extension 2x12/12


OMG.... this workout killed me. Right from the get go I knew bad things were coming, those Ipsilateral Back Lunges destroyed me. That is what I get for underestimating them I suppose. Next time out I will keep my legs at 45 degrees for the leg lowering drill, and I really overestimated my abilities for the Incline trap raise. I started off picking up the 20's, knew that it wasn't going to work so tried 15's and eventually had to drop to 10's. The lowest Hex Dumbbell my gym has is 45lbs. and I am not quite ready to use that in the Pushup+Row so I am just dropping it down to straight pushups and as you can see I have quite a bit of work ahead of myself just to complete those. I plan to do as many as I can traditional, and then switch to knees down to finish my sets. I didn't even attempt the third set of the final superset, I was completely fried. I went home, made something to eat and then fell asleep almost instantly for about 1.5 hours. I am definitely going into workout B with a new respect next time.
