Back on Track

Today was the start of a new week and a new goal. My goal is to hit the gym at least four times and to eat clean for six days. I will attempt all seven and just have a cheat meal but we will see because it is extremely tough.

I was able to eat clean throughout the entire day today and able to get a nice hour and a half workout at the gym as well. I tried a new technique today while doing chest. It was recommended from an article I read featuring the one and only Arnold!

This is what I did today. I did four sets of three on bench. I did this on the smith machine with a bench that was able to adjusted for different degrees.

1st set 15 degrees for 3 sets

2nd set 30 degrees for 3 sets

3rd set 45 degrees for 3 sets

4th set 60 degrees for 3 sets

The reason to do four different degrees on the bench is to hit the entire chest throughout the movements. If you have been following my blog I do chest quite a bit. The reason for this is I have an extremely strong chest but it lacks size. For this reason I really work on it harder then the rest of my body for this point in time.

I finished the workout with heavy incline dumbbell flys followed by lighter cable flys to really get the blood pumping in the chest. And of course the oh so hated cardio.
