I call this photo: “reducing the concavity of my demise curve.” That is, I am try to slow the rate of my decline.
Yes, I am at an age where this inspires me..and NOT in a “aw, look how cute Granny is” but more …damn, she is nice looking and STRONG. (genuinely). Ok, adding all of those “oversized but really not that heavy” bumper plates to that trap bar lift is for show. Yes, she does pull ups..and on her Instagram feed she admits to putting a bench to come to rest on between reps.
Ok, what about my own (less impressive) workout? (and I might make an adjustment)
pull ups: 4 sets of 5 (quality sets) with hip hike/rotator cuff recovery.
bench press: 10 x 134, 2 sets of 3 x 184 (brief pause), 2 sets of 4 x 170, 1 set of 5 x 165
trap bar squats: 1 set of 10 x 134 neutral, 2 sets of 10 x 134 deficit (technique)
shoulder press :3 sets of 10 x 48 (up 4lb); seen above, 1 set of 5 x 102, 1 set of 5 x 96 barbell
rows: 3 sets of 10 x 134 trap bar
back outside: 1 set of 10, 4 sets of 5 pull ups (to get to 50 reps total)
push ups: 50, 20, 10 (50 maybe too sloppy?) Was a bit fired up about jury notice..I got it deferred to June when COVID might be a bit down.
