1-8-16 HY: BB-Bulk:Back + 0-6Abs-P2:L7/6 + Splits + TCF.

1-8-16 HY: BB-Bulk:Back + 0-6Abs-P2:L7/6 + Splits + TCF.

It has been a while since I did 7 days in a row of hard workouts. It was tough, but rewarding. But I wouldn't want to do it again.

Went up in weight today. I was very happy that I was able to keep pace with Segi today. Here are the weights:
Super Set: Pull-Over (12/14.5/19.5/17kgs). Really focused on getting those back muscles to activate and work. I was able to actually feel the pull in my back and control the weights. Pull-Ups (10repsX3). Second time to do all threes sets straight. Feeling good.
Progressive Set: Reverse Grip Row (12.5/14.5/17/17/14.5/12.5kgs). Felt good going up, but the 17kg set was tough. I lost some range of motion. I wasn't able to get the dumbbells all the way up as high as the lower weights. Also, the heavier weight hit a little more in my shoulders than back.
Force Set: One-Arm Row (14.5kgs). This weight felt heavy from the beginning and I almost switched it out, but somehow, I got through it and it actually got a bit better through the sets. This is a good weight for me right now.
Single Set: Dead Lift ( 12.5/14.5/22/19.5kgs). Good weight series, but my lower back was really feeling it. Keeping the straight back was tough.
Super Set: Reverse Fly (4/5kgs). The 4's were okay, but 5kgs is my limit with good form and full range of motion. Barely got to the final reps. I had to fudge a bit on the last few reps and swung some. Plank Rotation (5kgs-12reps/6.25kgs-12reps). I think I might be able to go up one more plate. I was straining on the last few reps, but still made it through with relative ease. But I was sweating like a pig! At the end of the workout, I actually felt my lats pressing a bit on my arms. I was like, WHOA! That was a first.

Went right to abs, and did the Level 7 to 6 rotation again. It's getting better. Felt more stable and strong. No sagging and no groaning or moaning.

Splits were good. Trying to change up to get a better stretch in my front hip flexors. The Flow was really good. Did the orientation test again today and blew it away. Smooth and clean. No hesitation. Just a minor adjustment to avoid a piece of furniture.

In the end, I torched another solid 703kcals. So looking forward to my off day. Really need it. BUT! I'm considering still doing the splits to keep the push on.
