Entry #547

Speed bench:
8 x 3     185 lbs.
> Adopted a wider grip. I've been holding the bar too narrowly.

Skullcrushers:
4 x 8     50 lb. dumbbells

Cable pressdowns:
4 x 8     150 lbs.
> Good pump. I still think this is a wussy exercise, though. And 150 lbs. (the entire stack) here is about equal to 80 lbs. on the machine at the old gym.

Weighted chin-ups:
4 x 8     35 lbs.
> No difficulty. Up to 45 lbs. next week.

Hammer curls:
2 x 8     40 lb. dumbbells
1 x 6     40 lb. dumbbells
> No alternation here. Each arm got 8 (and 6) full, strict reps.
