Workout 10/02/2007

I forgot to set my alarm last night, but I woke up on my own at 6:15, my target time to leave. I ended up on the road at 6:38. Today was upper body day:
  • Warmup on recumbent bike, 7 minutes, less "distance" than usual, and my heart rate didn't get into the 120s as fast.
  • Lat Pulldowns, Cybex Machine, 90/90/90
  • Chest Presses, Cybex machine, 70/70/70, the last set was tough but I got through it fine, maybe it was because I did these toward the beginning of the workout...
  • Barbell Curls, 45/45/50 (using the "fixed-weight" barbells).
  • Dumbbell exercise for rotator cuffs I can't find online, 10/10/10
  • Seated Rear lateral Dumbbell Raises, 10/10/10, my form was worse today.
  • Dumbbell Lateral Raises, 12.5/12.5/12.5, form is still not great.
  • Dumbbell Front Raises, 15/15/15 (alternating arms)
  • Dumbbell Shoulder Press, 20/20/20
  • Tricep Pushdowns, 70/70/70/60, these were awful today, why is this getting harder? Damn it's frustrating! I guess I'll got to 60s for a while, but it's depressing.
  • Cable Seated Row, 90/90/105
  • Recumbent Bike, 11 minutes plus 1 minute cooldown, this was a bit more taxing today than yesterday.

Overall today was kind of tough: I definitely felt like I was dragging, and I'm really frustrated with my backsliding on the triceps.
