Friday, Jan. 3, ’14: Back, Biceps

That was a rough start, but a great ending. Our son was up most of the night not feeling well, so sleep may or may not have happened; I’m not entirely sure at this point. I got out of bed much later than normal, but benefit #265 of having a home gym is that you can show up in your PJs and no one will care…

Back: Undergrip rows (4×10 + X Fade); Bent-arm bent-over laterals (4×10 + X Fade); Close-grip parallel rows (3×30,20,15); Pullovers (4×10 + X Reps); DB shrugs (3×30,20,15 + X Fade)
Biceps: One-arm spider curls (4×10 + X Fade); DB curls (4×10); Incline curls (3×30,20,15 + X Reps)
Forearms: Wrist curls (3×12); Reverse wrist curls (3×12)

Note: My current PowerBlock gym program is based on the Phase 1 workout in the NEW Super-Size Crash Course e-book.

Summary: While I was a bit short on time this morning, I knew that if I took too much time to wake myself up with the usual coffee, etc., that I could end up getting wrapped up in work and pushing the workout to tomorrow morning. I didn’t want that, so I went straight into the gym, pajama pants and all. The only downside was that I had nothing to eat prior to training, but I didn’t even notice until I was done. The first couple sets of back were rough, but only because I was half asleep. Everything went really well after that, and it was a typically great Friday training session. Plus, it probalby helped wake up me up much more fully than a cup or two of coffee would have.
