5-22-18 (Tuesday) HY: Body Beast - Build: Chest and Tris + AA 40 Abs + TCF.

Today starts the third round of the Build phase.  I wasn't really looking forward to today's routine because I was still sore from yesterday's resistance routing, Build: Shoulders.  But I was happy to get a jump on round three of the Body Beast Build Phase so I went with it.  It was just as tough as I expected, but I quickly loosened up after that the first few sets of the chest moves.  I went up a little on weight, again, an average of 2.5kgs per set on most sets in the Chest section.    Like the first move, the Single Set and the Super Set, 2-2.5kgs up.  On the Giant Set, I jumped up 3.25kgs on the first two moves, first set.  Then 2.5kgs on the second of the first move, and only 1.25kgs on the second set of the second move.  On the third set of the first move (in the Giant Set) I jumped 3.25kgs again.  And 2.5kgs on the third set of the second move.  But why am I telling you this when you can just see the weight jumps below.

I will say that I was happy with my 1.25 jumps on the Tris moves.  I honestly didn't think I could jump much.  But unfortunately, I still burned out and couldn't do any of the Close-Grip Push-Ups on my toes.  Still everything on my knees.  Dips were terrible.  I could only manage 12 on my first set and then died from there. BURN OUT!!!  But it was a good workout!


Today, with a new round, comes a new level of ab workout.  I started the Abs After 40 Abs routine.  It is a short circuit of 4 moves: Flutter Kicks, Heel Touches, In and Outs, and Reverse Crunches.  The coach says 3 rounds, but I did 5 rounds instead so I can keep my ab reps at 200.  Today's abs were on FIRE!

I closed out my workout with a nice Flow series.  Getting back into the flow.

In the end, I burned 779 kcal.  I good number for the workout.
