Cardio:
My Mrs has joined a gym and is 17 days in to being alcohol free. She’s off to her first class tonight - some kind of HIT session with a friend. She’s at a nice classy gym rather than a dirty/rusty one like me. Proud of her though, she’s never been into training/fitness so going to try to encourage her to stick to it. Going to hand my old Fitbit down to her and try to make sure she’s getting enough food/protein in. Maybe I’ll get a session in with her occasionally when she’s used to it.
Cardio:
- 15 minutes cross-trainer 150 BPM+
- Low incline DB press 3 sets 6-8 rep range - up to 135lbs DBs here with nice tight form, slow negatives etc. Was a bit awkward getting the first rep up due to bad positioning but recovered well.
- T-bar row 3 sets 6-8 rep range
- Decline barbell press 3 sets 8-10 rep range - decline steeper than I’d have liked but it’s the only real option for decline BB in this gym. Weight up to 130KG and kept the reps in the mid 80% of the ROM trying to keep as much tension on the pecs as possible.
- Wide-grip pull-up 3 sets 8-10 rep range - Weighted and added up to 90lbs DB, gone slightly heavier in the past but I need to be doing them regularly to maintain strength in the movement. Been doing a lot of unweighted/high rep work as of late. One set bodyweight x 12 to finish.
- Mid cable fly 3 sets 10-12 rep range & final set was a drop set
- Iliac pull 3 sets 10-12 rep range & final set was a drop set - Can do stack on this on Life Fitness cable station now, need a Gym Pin
- 30 minutes full body mobility
