2-18-16 HY: BB-Bulk: Arms + 0-6 Abs- P2: L11 & 10 + Splits + TCF.

Got home early again today and was able to do a full workout. Last resistance routine of the first half of Beast Block. So I was happy to finally get all the old worksheets out and now, all new clean worksheets are in my file.

I had to really push today, and I got close to failure on a lot of moves, but only one move forced me to truly do "anything it takes" to get the weights up. Here they are:
Progressive Set: Standing Curl (6.25/7.5/10/10/7.5/6.25kgs). These weights felt good. The 10's are ready to go up a bit, though. Good starting set.
Single Set: Triceps Extension (14.5/17/22/19.5kgs). This was also a good set. But I'm ready to go up to Max weight.
Force Set: Wide EZ Bar Curl (13.5kgs). DO NOT PUT THE DUMBBELLS DOWN! I didn't. But I was really using some body English to get the weights up by the fifth set.
Single Set: Skull Crusher (7.5/10/13.25/12kgs). I struggled on the Drop set, but not as much as before. I was also able to keep my elbows in more. Maybe, I'm ready to go up a touch next time.
Progressive Set: Hammer Curl & Tricep Kickback (6.25/8.25/11.25/11.25/8.25/6.25kgs). These two moves are in their own independent Progressive set, but I'm combining them because the weights are the same. On the Hammers, the heavy weight was almost too tough going up. I needed a good amount of body English to get the dumbbells up, especially on the left. But going down, Right was good, and I only needed a little English on the final 5 reps. For the Kickbacks, Going up was fine, but I couldn't keep up with Segi's pace on the heavy weights. Coming down, I kept up until the final set. My tris and rear deltoids were just BURNING so before the final set, I took a little break and shook it out.
Single Set: Weighted Crunch (7.5kgs). I went up 1.25kgs today, and I felt every milligram. But I was able to do straight 30reps. I was feeling so pumped, as always after this routine. AWESOME!!!

Abs were good, I felt strong and I was able to stick with all the trainer's cues. I felt the pump and got on a little burn. I only have three levels left, so I'm going to mainly stick with this program until I finish. But, like on Tuesday, I might do one ab routine a week from another program just for variety.

The Splits were good. I pushed a much as I could, but didn't make it past my mark. Flow was smooth and clean.

In the end, I torched a whopping 880+kcals. A lot more than usual for Bulk: Arms+.
