Approved Log Training Cycle Comeback Log

[EMW14]

190.4 lbs this morning (!). WTF... Maybe I need 4500 call after all.

Brief back workout this afternoon. Went a little heavier on lat pulldowns:

180 lbs warmup: 1x10
225: 1x5
230: 4x5

Next time I'll go straight to 230 lbs, skip 225.

Barbell rows:

205: 3x5 this doesn't feel maxed out.
210: 2x5

Next time I'll start with 210. We'll see how my low back feels later/tomorrow.

DB Rows:

70 lbs: 4x5
70 lbs: 1x10. I was doing other things while working out, so there was a long break between set #4 and set #5. Thus, I was easily able to do 10 reps.

Got a good pump and lifted heavier. Good workout!

Dinner tonight will be pasta and meatballs, so I'll get my calories in tonight!

@EMW14 definitely a carb-heavy meal right there. Make sure the sauce you use for that pasta and meatballs is very light. I use a very high-quality pasta sauce that doesn't have any irritants in it, and it's a very light product. I don't put very much.

@EMW14 Bros, really nice job. I like how you start at 180 lb and work up to 230. Taking care of your joints is important.

This is a quality update boss. I love to see your hard work. @EMW14 those dumbbell rows are definitely on point.
