Biking, Back & Biceps

I guess you can call it the three B's?

This was my routine yesterday, right after work:

Bike machine for 30 minutes

I did the set workouts

Hill type

"Around The World" if you go to 24 Hour Fitness, or if they have this machine with that option

Intensity was at 5 the whole time

Watched about two episodes of Bob's Burgers & sweated like a monkey

Followed that by back & biceps:

Back -

Hammer Strength machine - One that targeted more of my traps - The other for my lats - 3x12 for both - Starting & ending weight was 25 lb plates on both side for the first workout - Starting weight for the second workout was 25 lb plates on both sides. Increased by 5 lbs each set

Close Grip Rows - 3x12 - Started with 50 lbs & ended with 65 lbs - I also did an extra set with low weights (40 lbs) at higher reps (20)

Hyper Extension - 3x12 - I used a 25 lb plate

Assisted Pull Ups - 3x12 - I used 50 lb deficit - I also did an extra set with a low deficit weight with higher reps

Biceps

Preacher Curls - 3x12 - 10 lbs to start then 15 lbs for all three working sets

Cable Curls - 3x12 - I couldn't read the weight but I know it's the third weight down - I did an extra set with lower weights at a higher reps

I kept sipping on my pre workout which continued to give me energy through out my whole entire workout. I think if I didn't have to go home, I would have stayed for another couple of hours doing who knows what.

I feel like I can go heavier each week & that's definitely my goal. My other goal is to continue doing accessory work for my bigger lifts like, squats, deadlifts, & bench, as well as, press. So for back I really concentrated on the hyper extension for my lower back for when I squat.

This Week

This week has been very busy. On Sunday I got my new shoes which you can see below. I went for a walk Sunday night, went to the gym on Monday, then last night I had my boxing session. It's 45ºc here in Australia and me and my trainer still smashed out a good hour at boxing. I got home and I had oven baked fish and salad for dinner. Today I had Subway for lunch. Not the best but better than the other alternatives in the shopping center. Tonight I had grilled chicken and salad for dinner and it was amazing. After dinner I went for my usual walk. Usually half way through I sit down for a few minutes. Tonight I powered right through it. My legs were burning! Once I got in to my street I jogged for a little bit, but because it was uphill / 35º it was a little hard.

Suprisingly, my back pain has disappeared. To me, that's a big thing. I don't feel like I am being held back by anything, and I can go for as long as I possibly can without getting tired. A little win, but it's still something.

This weekend is going to be a real challenge. I am an exhibitor at Brickvention 2014 here in Melbourne, and basically will be at the convention for 3 full days, plus a VIP night. Finding decent food is going to be a bit of a challenge. Taking food isn't really an option due to the lack of places to store it and our heat issue at the moment. I should be able to find a cafe close.

Anyways that's about it right now. I'm going good. And things can only get better.
