Shoulders and back
Milt Press DB 35x10/85x5/85x5/85x5/85x5/85x5
Side lat 35x10/35x10/35x10
DB Shrugs 120x10/120x10/120x10
Deadlift 350x5/350x4/350x4/350x3/350x1
Seated Row 230x10/230x10/230x7
Lat pulls 170x8/170x5/170x5
Hit my sets pretty good today. Hit an easy 5 sets of my milt press so ill move back up to 90s. Still not close to the 100s i was hitting but it'll get there. Hit my side lat sets so im going to move up to maybe the 37.5s or whatever those weird in between weights are. 40 will be too much and my form will suck. Threw in some Db shrugs with the 120 dbs (they dont go any higher in my gym) knew my grip would be shot for everything after that though. Deadlifts were decent though i lost my grip strength by my third set. it wasnt my back so much as me being able to hold the bar. Stronly considering buying straps though im against the concept. I already use a belt. I was able to get my seated rows up 20 pounds and almost hit a full 3 sets. Lat pulls was a joke because i had absolutly no grip to hold the bar. The weight was light but i was holding it with the tips of my fingers. Any advice on this?

Arms
DB Curls 60x3/60x4/60x4/60x3/60x2
BB Curls 120x10/120x10/120x7
Pinwheel Curls 42.5x10/42.5x10/42.5x10
Skulls 115x5/115x5/115x5/115x5/115x5
Rope Pulldowns 150x10/150x10/150x6
Supinated Pushdown's 40x10/50x10/50x10
Good workout. Went from 55s-60s and i felt the 5 pounds alot. didnt come close to hitting my 5 sets though i was hungover and pretty tired. Not really worrying about hitting it next weekend. Put an extra 5 pounds on the BB curls. Missed my last set but again, pretty sure ill be good next week when fully rested. Upped the skulls 5 pounds and hit my sets. Went back to the other machine with more of the pullys. Hit the whole stack for a pretty good three sets. I decided to switch up the last exercise to supinated pushdowns instead of the 1 arm ext's because i feel that my tri's are too shot for more DB work.

strong arm workout bro., damn 115 skulls. is your elbow sore after those?? do you keep strict form doing biceps?

elbows are good. i try to keep as best form as possible. i have a feeling that it'll break once the weight gets really heavy with the DB curls. If im struggling with the BB curls at the end, ill cheat a little to get the extra rep. I dont rely on cheat curls, but i think its one of the only exercises that you can break form and still benifit from it.
