ME Upper Body

Lunchtime:
Cybex ArcTrainer Elliptical: 30 minutes, Cardio setting, Level 5

Evening:
Flat Bench Press w/One pair Chains: 55x3, 75x3, 95x3, 115x3, 135x3, 155x3, 175x3, 185x2. Will alternate doing these for threes and a week of doing these for fives with no chains.

CG Bench Press w/One pair Chains: 115x10, 8, 6 reps. These were all rep maxes.

Nautilus Nitro Front Pulldown: 120x8x5

T-Bar Row: 115x8x5

Snatch Grip Deadlift: 165x5, 195x5, 225x5, 255x5, 285x5. After all the back work, I had to really work hard for these. On the set of 255, I was lifting with gloves on and the bar started slipping out of my right hand, I lost my concentration for a moment and windmilled slightly causing a right side mid-back pull. On the 285, I used my bare hands and chalk and that went better. I just stopped there: I could have given 295x5 a shot but played it safe.

EZ Bar Curl: 70x8x5
