First Upper Body of the Year ...
This workout phase is all compound movements, bilateral (both sides at once) and cutting out the "detailed" work like biceps and triceps. The goal is to get a good foundation back, then progress to more specialized/detailed movements.
Having said that ... doing BFL-style sets (12, 10, 8, 6, 12, then a superset of 12). Today's workout was upper body:
Pec dec superset with flyes,
Bent-over row superset with pull-overs,
Seated military press superset with lateral raises,
and seated pull-down.
Went well, enjoyed the music from my new Shuffle while I was training!
Today's eats:
Breakfast (post-workout) - granola cereal with shaved almonds and soy milk
Midmorning snack - 1 orange and a cup of yogurt
Lunch - shredded chicken breast barbecue, broccoli, and a slice of fresh milled whole wheat bread
Afternoon snack - bagel with cream cheese
Still waiting to discover what tonight's meal will be ...
