Back to a normal schedule. Regular Tuesday, early evening workout after work. Resistance was up. Felt good today, so decided to go up in weight when I felt I could. Today, just a regular routine, no tempo sets.
CS1 - Pull-Ups (15-15)/Push-Ups (15-15)/Squats (8.75/14.5kgs)/Crunches (15/15). Happy to do all the sets straight 15 reps. I treat these circuit sets like Super Sets, doing one move right after another. I got really winded after this circuit.
CS2 - Incline Press (17/22kgs)/Bent-Over Rows (12/14.5kgs)/Reverse Alternating Lunge (8.75/12kgs)/Plank Twist-Twist (15-15). Up on the Press. Felt good with the 22kgs. Legs were tingling with the heavy lunges, but I could probably go a little heavier next time.
CS3 - 1,1,2 Military Press (7.5/12kgs, 15/8-4-4reps)/Post Delt Raise (5/6.25kgs)/Stiff Leg Dead lift (7.5/12kgs)/Russian Twist (7.5/12kgs). I sort of let myself down on the second set of the Military Press. I was going for at least 12 straight, but I failed at 8 reps, then I couldn't finish out the 7 reps and failed at 4 reps. So I went as many as possible to finish out, but could only pump out 4 reps. Shoulders were on Fire! Then Delt Raise was tough, but I got through it.
CS4 - Bicep Curl-Up-Hammer Down (8.75/12kgs)/Tricep Extension-OVERHEAD (8.75/12kgs)/Calf Raise-Weight at Shoulder (17/22kgs-both singles with weight at my side)/Side Forearm Plank Hip Raise (15x4). Did the Overhead Triceps Extensions again, just felt more focused on the triceps that the kickbacks. All around good workout today.
Stuck with Segi for my abs and today, it was BEAST abs for sure. I tried to keep good form and it killed my core. WooHOO!!! Got a great burn and made the moan and groan I haven't heard in a while hitting failure.
The Splits and Flow were good. Pushed to the pain threshold.
In the end, I torched a huge 1500+kcals. I think the Super Sets really pushed me hard.
