Workout Log for 5/10/16 and 5/11/16

Hello everyone, I hope you all got after it today and kicked some ass in life and in the gym. This post is a combination of yesterday and today's workouts. Yesterday, I just did some quick arms before a client. I have moved away from a bodybuilding type split where arms get their own day, but I'm going to the beach next week, so I thought, might as well get a nice Arnold style pump on. Today, I trained upper body and finished with 2 Tabata circuits. Again, I didn't have a lot of time, but I knew I needed to do something.

5/10/16

This workout was super fast and straight forward, nothing special here.

1) Barbell Bicep Curls 4x12
2) Banded Tricep extension 4x15
3) Hammer Curls 3x12
4) Over-head tricep extension 3x12

Like I said, this was a very bodybuilder-esque lift. It brought me back to my roots some. I remember pumping out arms in my basement when I was 15, thinking I was huge!

5/11/16

1a) Barbell Bench Press 5x10 started with 135 and went up by 10lbs each set.
1b) Attempted muscle-ups/pull ups 5x5

I moved fast on the first 2 movements. As soon as I changed the weights and attempted muscle-ups (still trying to get one down) I went right back into bench.

Tabata Circuit 1 (20 seconds on/10 seconds rest, 8 rounds)
Each Round I changed exercise, here they are in order:
1) Push-Ups
2) Ball Slams
3)Push-Ups
4) Ball Slams
5) Push-Ups
6) Tiger Crawls
7) Fast Battle Ropes
8) Push-Ups

Tabata Circuit 2
1) Push-Ups
2) Granny Toss
3) Battle Rope Slams
4) Pull-Ups
5)Push-Ups
6) Tiger Crawls
7) Granny Toss
8) Granny Toss

I made these Tabata sets up as I went along, so that's why it was all over the place. I did whatever I felt like doing, and it made it more fun. Like I mentioned, today was more upper body, as you can tell by all the benching and push-ups.

Thanks for reading!
