Entry #348

ME Upper~body

I trained hungry. My blood sugar levels were low enough to the point that I was unable to keep my hands from shaking. Potential wasn't fully realized. My diet needs to be more methodical.

Bench press: 7 sets; 20, 20, 12, 8, 4, 3, 3 reps (45, 45, 135, 185, 225, 235, 245 lbs.)
The weight felt light over me, but I wasn't in my best condition, so I decided not to proceed.

Overhead dumbbell press: 3 sets; 15, 6, 6 reps (25, 75, 70 lb. dumbbells)
The first set is light to stimulate and warm-up deltoid involvement.

T~bar row: 5 sets; 12, 10, 10, 10, 10 reps (95, 95, 85, 70, 45 lbs.)
My muscular endurance utterly gives out on this under the alloted time of rest (two minutes). However, my form and ROM was impeccable.

Bent~over alternating lateral raises: 3 sets; 12, 15, 12 reps (35, 30, 30 lb. dumbbells)
