Entry #779

ME upper

135 x 5
185 x 5
225 x 5
275 x 5
295 x 5
315 x 4.5
> Damnation! Very close to lockout. While I was struggling under the bar I twinged my back slightly. I have to remember to think about pressing myself down into the bench rather than the weight up and out, to prevent lifting my glutes whenever I'm in a bind.

Skullcrushers:
55 lb. dumbbells x 8
45 lb. dumbbells x 8
45 lb. dumbbells x 8
40 lb. dumbbells x 8
> Very light to keep perfect form. I went as deep as possible and kept my elbows in.

45 lb. plate x 8
3 sets

Seated cable rows:
180 lbs. x 10
4 sets
> Extremely short rests in the interest of time.

Muscle Milk came a couple of days ago. I used the first one today when I woke up (not intentionally) after three hours of sleep. I chugged the carton and went back to bed.
