Back and Chest
Did an hour of cardio on the treadmill with Helen this morning. Helen is now getting herself ready for the March 09 Arnold Classic Amateur Fitness Competition. She starts gymnastics again next week, diet doesn’t start till just after Christmas though so she has plenty of time to focus on routine, gym, flexibility and strength.
Trained Chest and Back this afternoon, 30 min workout. Started with bent over reverse grip rows on the smith machine, 12/10/8 with 12.5kg either side, went lighter on this machine as was feeling a good pump in my back. Brian gave me a spot on close grip pulldowns, this was easier than last week, 55kg for 3 sets of 8 reps, felt really strong. Seated row with the very wide and long grip 3 sets of 10 and then single arm db rows with the 20kg. Dumbell presses and flyes to finish. Really enjoyed this and now going to wait for Tuesday legs with SJ. Tuesday can’t come soon enough……………..
