Garage Gym Chronicles: 10/20/2024 Training Log

Garage Gym Chronicles: 10/20/2024 Training Log


Upper A


Ex 1: flat dumbbell bench press-9,8,6

Ex 2: pullups-8,7,7,5

Ex 3: cable lateral raise-3x12/12

Ex 4: incline dumbbell curls-10,8

Ex 5: cable pushdowns-20,14+6 (rest pause and did the last 6 reps)


Total Time = 38 minutes


And just like that, the weekend is coming to an end.


I'm eating my final meal of the night:


A lean beef burger on a brioche bun; whey protein shake; 2 Greek yogurts


And then it's time to read and wind down for sleep. 4am comes early on Mondays.


In non-lifting/fitness news, I'm hoping to finish up the first book in "The Cemetery of Lost Books" series – "Shadow in the Wind." It's been a great read. I highly recommend it. It's got a bit of everything in it, except fantasy magic jargon. I don't care for magic in my fiction. Magic erases all rules, and I believe that in life, we need some rules. If you also hate magic, you'll be happy to know that this book has no magic or sorcery of any sort.
