For my last couple of contest preps, I have written a Bible verse every morning in my training log. My theory is that you have to strengthen the inner man before you can really strengthen the outer man. So, I thought I'd start sharing these verses with ya'll, and help you strengthen your inner man as well as the outer. Today's verse is from the book of Jonah, 2:2- "I called out of my distress to the LORD, and He answered me."
And the physical workout: bi's and tri's. They were pumped! I've been adding an extra set or 2 for the triceps more than the biceps. The theory here is that your triceps is actually 2/3 of the arm, so it is bigger and needs more work. Most guys miss this. I have prioritized my triceps since I was 15, so at this point they're well balance. But, I'd rather them be too big than too small. So, here's todays workout:
rope pushdown super-set with seated alternating dumbbell curl: 7 for tri's and 6 for bi's
3 sets of concentration curls
3 sets of lying 45degree extension
3 super-sets of hammer curl and seated 1 arm extension
3 super-sets of under-hand pushdowns and cable curls
The rep range here was mostly 6-8 for biceps and 6-10 for triceps, though they were all over from 5-15. Heavy weight, short rest periods, tight muscle!
