Hex Bar Deads (Wk. 5, 10x10), TRX Back

Warmed up with hypers, leg curls, and leg extensions.

Hex Bar Deads
185/10, 290/8 for 8 sets

TRX Rows... did a bunch of sets, Tabata style

* This workout was definitely easier than most because I wasn't supersetting chins with the deads. I may continue to do this as the sets and reps on the deads increase. 

Chest, Shoulders, Arms

15 Degree Incline DB Press
50's/10, 60's/10, 70's/10, 80's/10, 90's/5, 95's/3 (improvement over last week)

Hammer Strength Incline Press
180/11, 200/8, 200/8 (improvement over last week)

Hammer Strength Shoulder Press
180/7 (felt my shoulder with this, so I switched to OHPs)

Overhead Press
118/8, 118/7, 118/8 (no shoulder pain at all, and from what I recall, OHPs have never bothered me, so I will go back to doing them)

Arms
TRX biceps and triceps... first time trying the biceps..... wow!!

Hex Bar Deads (Week 4, 10x10), Neutral Grip Pull Ups

Warmed up with hypers, leg curls, and leg extensions.

Hex Bar Deads
135/10, 275/10 for 7 sets

Neutral Grip Pull Ups
5, 5, 6, 6, 8, 8

* This was a much better workout compared with last week because I took it easier with the pull ups. Going forward, I will keep this method up in order to get through the 10x10 sessions. 

Chest/Shoulders/Biceps

15 Degree Incline DB Press
50's/10, 60's/10, 70's/10, 80's/10, 90's/4 (felt very strong tonight)

Deads (Wk 3, 10x10), Chins

Friday workout.

Warmed up with hypers, leg curls, and leg extensions.

Hex Bar Deads
275/8 for 7 sets

Chins (bodyweight)
* Did these in between sets of deads, alternated between chins and neutral grip
10, 8, 7, 7, 5, 6, 7, 6

* This was a very tough workout.

Declines, Inclines, etc.

Decline Bench Press
bar/40, 138/10, 158/10, 228/5, 208/7, 208/6

15 Degree Incline DB Press
50's/10, 70's/10, 80's/7

Hammer Strength Incline Press
180/11, 200/7, 200/6

Hammer Strength Shoulder Press
90/10, 140/5, 180/7, 180/6

Concentration Curls
35's/10, 35's/10, 35's/10

TRX Triceps
5 sets, didn't count, just went until it started burning.

OK, so this was a bad workout. Just look at my numbers. Only 80's/7 on the inclines!! Only 180/7 & 6 on the shoulders! Only 228/5 on the decline (I failed in the middle of 6.) To make matters worse, I really feel my never healing, always injured shoulder again. This means that I am going to have to stop declines for now. I probably should just stop them forever since I am not going to get an MRI on my shoulder (which I need) anytime soon. Blah.
