* I decided to do OHPs third to see how much chest would impact them. As you can see, predictably, they were impacted a great deal. On the contrary, of course, the 15 degree DB's were stronger than usual.

Hex Bar Deads, Back, Biceps
Hex Bar Deads
225/10, 315/5, 365/3, 415/3, 415/3, 315/12
* For the last few weeks, I've been doing hex deads at a different gym with a different bar. That bar is 15 pounds heavier, but the handles are a little bit higher. Tonight, I did them at my usual gym with their bar. Since those handles are a bit lower, I could noticeably feel the deficit, making them a bit more difficult than what I have become accustom to over the past few weeks.
Barbell T-Bar Rows
170/8, 170/7, 170/7, 170/7
Smith Machine Shrugs

Standing EZ Bar Curls
90/10, 90/10, 90/7
* This workout was OK... definitely spent a lot of energy with the hex & t-bars.

* For some reason, I woke up 3 hours before I wanted to and never fell back asleep. This is rare. My sleeping woes are usually because I can't fall asleep to begin with. In any event, I was pretty exhausted during the workout, so I would grade this session the way I felt: "eh".
