Member 3241, 2043 posts SQ 1, BP 192, DL 255 448.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq	Post Edited: 18.03.2014 @ 17:19 PM by hifilover Tues 18th March 2014: Arms session. All reps done with very little rest (prob max 20-30secs in between sets to maintain 'ze pump' Triceps: NG Bench: 30 x bar 20 x 60kg 20 x 80kg 15 x 100kg 15 x 100kg Rope pulldowns: 20 x 40lbs 20 x 60lbs 18 x 60lbs 17 x 60lbs Wide grip bar pushdowns: 20 x 60lbs 18 x 80lbs 18 x 100lbs 16 x 120lbs EZ bar Skull-crushers (plus NG presses): 4 x 15 x 30kg + 10 presses (weight on bar) Seated dip machine (drop-set): 20 x 70kg 20 x 50kg 20 x 40kg Biceps: Seated Preacher curls: 30 x 30kg 20 x 50kg 18 x 50kg 14 x 50kg (+ 4 more reps / + 4 more reps) - extra reps done after standing back up & re-setting Dumbbell hammer curls: 12 x 30lbs 12 x 36lbs 12 x 41lbs 12 x 46lbs Strict EZ bar curls (weight on bar): 15 x 30kg 2 x 8 with 50kg Standing preacher curls (straight bar): 4 x 16 with 20kg (weight on bar) Proper body-building session 'I feel the tan force is strong in this one' Going to have a 4 week sabbatical away from heavy pressing and power training whilst my shoulder continues to heal. It felt fine today with the NG pressing but it was twinged taking the bar out hence why I havent gone heavier than 100kg and I'll be limiting myself to 100kg on any oly bar pressing for this 4 week period
