November 08, 2012 Upper Body


  • Incline Bench: 225*3 245*3 255*2
  • Pullups: 85*2 85*2 80*2 75*3 75*2

43 minutes

Increasing the volume as per my plan.  Didn't notice much of a dropoff in strength, first time inclining in a couple weeks on account of last week being an off week.  May have dipped a bit on the pullups.  I'm also going to be staying more in the 3-5 rep range from here on out with less testing of my 1 rep maxes, or even doubles.  I don't want to wear down my CNS as I've felt that's been happening over the last 6 months or so.  I always do a lot of low rep work but I've been going hog-wild with it as of the last 6 or even 7 months. I'll test 1 rep maxes every month or so.  It's going to take a few sessions to get used to timing all of these workouts and getting everything in over such a quick period.  I was gassed by the time I got to the DB work at the end.   Can't wait to try this again this coming week. 

Gradually ramping up calories this week,
