DAY 2 â PULL | BACK âą BICEPS âą REAR DELTS
Engine warm. Mind sharp. Wings loading.
Started with 25 minutes on the treadmill, heart rate locked at 125â135. Engine warm, lungs open, mind sharp. No gimmicks â just setting the tone for a violent pull session.
BentâOver Barbell Rows
40 lbs â 12, 12, 14
Weight moving clean, groove locked, back waking up like itâs ready for war. Every rep felt like it belonged there.
Lat Pulldowns (Wide + Unilateral)
95 on the stack
Wide grip hit like a sledgehammer â 16â18 reps with that deep stretch.
Unilateral sets pushing 20+ until the burn said âenough.â
Elbowâtoâhip cue still the cheat code for wings.
Seated Cable Rows
110 lbs â 12, 15, 15
Full 90âsecond rests. Perfect control.
Rest discipline = strength unlocked.
Face Pulls
30 lbs â 20 reps
Shadow of Intent blasting â dark, technical, heavy.
Rear delts firing like theyâre trying to tear out of your back. Rope to the forehead, chest up, everything crisp.
Seated Cable Dumbbell Curls
85 lbs
Set 1: 11 clean reps with slow negatives.
Set 5: 6 full reps + 6 partials to finish the fight.
Arms were DONE.
Pullovers
60 lb dumbbell â 3Ă20
Bench sideways, letting gravity stretch the lats open.
Last set slowed down to carve out that width.

OVERALL NOTES â Wings expanding. Arms shaping. Blueprint evolving.
Day 2 is turning into a fullâon lab session.
Core working sets stay locked, but curl variations â cable curls, benchâsupported curls, iso curls â are being rotated to see which one hits the hardest when pushed to absolute failure. Each one lights up a different part of the arm, and whichever consistently delivers the nastiest pump gets crowned next cycle.
Same story with the lats.
Adjusting cable height, angles, and tension, applying the J3U cues â and the results are showing up fast. Deeper stretch, harder contraction, and a burn that feels like the wings are literally growing set by set.
Every tweak is intentional. Every rep is data. Every session is progress.
Momentum is rolling. Tomorrowâs another chance to level up.
TEAM USP stays hungry, stays locked in, and keeps pushing the standard higher for the whole crew.
