TRAINING:

Tonight, my wokout was done with a barbell & plates (I decided to not borrow any kettlebells while Jim was gone)

 

8:50PM

- 100 Overhead Presses with 40lbs: 10 sets of 10 (40lbs doesn't sound like much, but it felt like it the last few of each set) 1 minute rest between sets

- 100 Bent Rows with 56lbs: 10 sets of 10 (First set was done with 40lbs) 1 minute rest between sets

- 1 set of 8 close grip pushups supersetted with 10 bicep curls @ 36lbs

- 1 set of 8 close grip pushups supersetted with 15 bicep curls @ 20lbs

 

(Again, still battling this stubborn cold so that was about all I had energy for)
