Entry #749

ME upper

Overhead press:
5x5 95, 135, 165, 185, 200 lbs.
1x4 215 lbs.
> I probably could have hit the last rep, but I stopped short of straining too fiercely in consideration of my nape. Good improvement, nonetheless, but an even 5 is tantalizing.

Cable pressdowns:
4x12 Entire stack
> Extremely explosive. It's practically speed work.

Lateral raises:
3x8 50 lb. dumbbells

Bent-over barbell rows:
3x8 215 lbs.

Pull-ups and ab work at the track.

I'm not as strong as I could be right now because I'm doing a ton of conditioning and cardio, but it's honestly a sacrifice I'm embracing. I love to run, or I would if love wasn't for weaklings.
