Chest
Had a crazy cold over the weekend that knocked me for six, got through Arms on Friday and then it was a blur! Back to it today with Chest and 1 rep maxs. Flat Bench press 17.5kg a side 5 sets of 1 rep with huge rests of 1-2 mins which I really struggle with as I just want to get on, I added in clap push ups in between and did 4 x 10 reps, still with huge rest patterns. That felt really good and I feel tired now as I am typing away. Went upstairs and did 3 x 1 reps max on the 22.5kg for incline db press, my idea was to press the 25 kg, but they kind of freaked me out today and I let them get the better of me, besides last week, I hadn’t done as many clap push ups, but I felt stronger this week doing those though, so I’ll take the 22.5kg. I also did sojme push and pull with the 15kg barbell to add some strength to my chest and triceps.
I would have like to have added dips in at the end, but 50 mins had passed by and time was up!
Sarah, I hope you get better this week. Lucy is finding her triceps at last and I am pleased to say she has e mailed me to say that last nights incline ez bar french press and close grip push ups with an added in heavy shoulder press has made them tight and sore! Way to go!!
Jemma, well done today, you were really strong and the press ups were amzing form. Chantel, I hope you are eating well and working out in your gym whilst working away from home, catch up with you next week.
And finaly Lesley, how nice it was to have you back today for a new program and diet plan, I am really excited and hope you are too! Enjoy your sessions and your half term break!
