There Will Be Sweat

Probably some blood too. No tears though. Never tears.

Max Effort Weighted Chin Ups

Started things off with some light overhead squats and the standard joint rotations and stuff.

  • Weighted Chin-Ups
    • 3 x 60lb
    • 3 x 80lb
    • 3 x 105lb
    • 1 x 130lb
    • 1 x 150lb
    • 1 x 160lb *FAIL*
    • 1 x 160lb *FAIL*

Since the dumbbells in my gym only go up to 150lbs, I had to get clever with my last set. We wrapped a 10lb plate to the triceps rope handle and looped it into the weight belt. It was ugly, but it worked. Unfortunately, my arms didn’t work so well at that point.
