!!!Presses!!!

Thank you Brian. :-D

I got to do 225 lbs. today ladies and gentleman!!!!!!!! Well, kinda. lol. Somehow Brian decided to let me do a little more work today. I think he could tell it was drivin' me crazy to take it so easy. So, we did reverse band presses. So, it doesn't feel as heavy as it actually is coming off of your chest because the band is holding it in the air. We started with 135 lbs and I did 10. Then I'm not sure, but he might have added 25's to that to make it 185 lbs and I did 10. And then he put on 225 lbs, and I did 4. It felt really good. I really feel my right tricep shaking...it's weaker than it should be. But, that's the mission for the winter...working on the triceps. Other than that, it felt awesome. I also got to do some Close Grip Bench - 3 sets of 10 with 95 lbs. Then Brian said "That's enough." I got my taste of it. Gotta work back up to pushing hard. So, we did some Bicep Curls with 10 lbs., 3 or 4 sets of 20, and some Band Tricep work and some Shoulder Traction with the Bands. And of course stretching.

Was nice to feel a little more than 95 lbs. So glad he lets me get away with stuff when it's not in the plans. :-)
