5-03-18 (Thursday) HY: Body Beast - Chest and Tris + Fix Elbow Pain Protocol.

Today is the beginning of a modified Body Beast Program.  The way I am modifying it is by doing the resistance routines when I don't have either Tennis or Pickle-Ball.  So, I may end up doing only two resistance workouts a week because I have tennis on Sunday and Wednesday, then Pickle-Ball on Friday.  I'm at work all day on Monday, so the resistance days will be Tuesday and Thursday.  Since Monday is sort of a forced rest day, I may start working out on Saturday nights, but we'll see how it goes.  But I think I will stay on the Build Phase for at least two months so I can cycle through all the routines at least 3-4 times, then I'll move onto the next phase.

Today was Chest and Tris.  I couldn't find my last worksheet, so I just went from feel.  I started off with weights a little lighter than what Segi was using, but didn't jump up in as large increments as Segi was doing.  Segi was jumping up, like 10 lbs. , but I was only jumping around 2-5 lbs.  I was pretty fried at the end of the Chest section, but I burned out really quickly on the Tris section.  So much so that I couldn't even do the Triceps Push-Ups on my toes.  All the sets I had to do on my knees.  It has been a while since I burned out my Tris like that.  I know I'm going to be sore for a few days from now.  But I really enjoyed this workout because I could really feel the pump and burn.  The constant pump was a good sensation.  I've missed the PUMP!




In the end, I burned 585 Kcals.  Not bad for the first go around.  Back to basics with Segi.
