Monday: ME Bench

Lunchtime:
Treadmill running (1.5 incline): 5 minutes brisk walk, followed by intervals of 60 seconds jogging at 7.0 MPH and walking for 90 seconds at 3.8 MPH for 20 minutes. I'm trying a beginners program to bring me up to a 3 mile run in 9-10 weeks.

Evening:

Nautilus Nitro Bench Press: 100x6, 115x5, 130x4, 150x3, 165x3, 180x3 (was supposed to be 6 reps for this wave, but had zero left after rep 3), 210x0(went for it, moved it an inch or two and got stuck), 190x1 (should have been 6, 210 killed me), 210x0, 125x15 (had to rest pause it 4 times to get it). Might either go to 5x5 at lighter weights for the next three weeks, or switch movements. Just didn't have it today.

Triset for 3 sets of 20 reps:
DB Front Raises: 10 lbs
DB Lateral Raises: 10 lbs (had to rest pause it once or twice)
Hoist Rear Delt Machine: 20 lbs

Triset:
Inverted Rows: BWTx3x10
Standing Reverse Curls: 50x4x8, 50x3x2. The 45 lbs bar was awkward and the 25 lbs easy curls bars were taken. So I just made it harder.
External Rotations: 10x10x10. I'm kind of bored with these.

I'll probably complete the modified Prilepin cycle where I'm squatting/GM on the same day for the next three weeks. But the bench days will change, it's time to switch up.

The exact same. Have you tried it and did it work for you?
