verse of the day: Ps 127:1a "Unless the Lord builds the house, those that build it labor in vain."
I got in a killer arm pump this morning. It was very focused and intense. There was not much rest- one exercise after another. The volume was medium-high: 16 sets for biceps and 18 for triceps. You'll notice I throw in an extra couple of sets for triceps. Maybe I'll do a super-set and start and finish with tri's, or doing 1-arm exercises just toss in an extra. The reason I do this is not that my triceps are weaker than my biceps (it's really the opposite), but because the triceps are 2/3 of the arm so they should have a little more work, or you may get an imbalance and develop elbow problems. And my elbows have actually felt better since I've done this.
Here's today's awesome pump:
7 super-sets of rope pushdowns and seated dumbbell curls (+ 1 set rope pushdown)
3 super-sets of preacher curls and lying triceps extensions
3 sets 1-arm concentration curls
4 sets 1-arm seated rope extensions
2 super-sets of seated hammer curls and lying dumbbell extensions
