Chest Triceps and some abs. 

Went higher reps with chest, mostly 12-15 reps. Cut out a few sets because I put the added volume on the Triceps, a lagger for me. 

Since I cut out some sets I wanted to go best bag for the buck. Stuck to alot of presses. Started with flat dumbbell press. The 12-15 rep range gave me an enormous pump. By the time I moved on to incline hammer strength press I was feeling big and tight. 

I finished off with …

Today was an intensity based Chest/Shoulders/Triceps routine. I designed a new style of workout for today and it was great. I can honestly say that it gave me one of the best feels in terms of this specific training style. The entire workout was based around pre-exhaustion. Tons of isolation sets with supersets on the last set of each exercise. The supersets would be with a compound movement such as a press. 

I will continue to use this same routine in the coming weeks. If you like it, it feels good, then stick to it for a bit. 

There will have to be a slight adjustment due to the fact that I plan to switch up my training split. Instead of the Push/Pull/leg/circuit setup, I will be switching to a more tradtional split. Chest/Triceps, Back/Traps, Shoulders/Biceps, Quads/Hams/Calves.

Today was my 2nd Power Push Day (chest, shoulders and triceps) but it was the first one that really counts. The first power workout was my very first workout back after my post competition layoff. Needless to say, that wasnt much of a power day lol

This day went well. I was able to throw up the 110 pound dumbbell for a few sets of 5 reps. I am very confident that my strength will return and I will be able to go heavier.

By the time I got to the barbell shoulder press, I was starting to feel it hard, which reflected my numbers. I still feel like I got some good quality sets in, but I am eager to gain strength. However, I know that I have to be patient in order to avoid any injuries.

So basically for this session there was alot of power pressing. Certain exercises I targeted a 3-5 rep range, while others were in a 6-8 rep range.

Incline dumbbell press, barbell shoulder press and close grip bench press were my 3-5s. In addition to that I through in some other pressing movements in a slightly higher range.

Here is some video footage. …
