Monday 11/7/11 <3 @ 11pm [chest, triceps, core]
Dumbbell press (60) - 8x65, 8x65, 8x65
Tricep kickbacks (40) - 8x40, 8x40, 8x40
Bench press (155) - 1x185, 3x185, 2x185
UDR* (90) - 8x95, 8x95, 8x95
OCE** (52.5) - 8x57.5, 8x57.5, 8x57.5
So, I moved up five pounds for dumbbell press. Kyle persuaded me to bring my elbows lower than my body for that would work out the chest even more. At first, I was hesitant about keeping the weight at 65, but I was able to push through it.
Because Kyle was so beastly, he suggested that we start off at 185. My max had been 155 for the past few weeks, so I was quite reluctant. Jumping thirty pounds higher, I managed to push one out in the first set. Then 3 and then 2. Maybe 155 just is not that heavy relatively speaking.
