The just damn exhausted version

Today

• Pre-Workout Warmup
  Bike 5 min
  start/end/max heart rate 114/128/141

• Deadlifts
  125 @ 8
  135 @ 8
  135 @ 10
  I was told by my trainer that the reason they are called dead lifts is because they kill you..I was certainly dead by the end of this workout

• Seated Plate Calf Raise
  90 @ 10
  90 @ 11
  90 @ (11)
  () represents a set where I had to stop and take a break to finish; (()) would mean I needed two breaks

• Bench Press
  65 @ 8
  75 @ 8
  85 @ (10)
  started with just the bar; haven't done this in a long time. I hadn't lost as much as I thought I would OR the chest work I've been doing has been effective

• Pullup machine
  150 @ 8
  140 @ 6
  140 @ (6)
  was completely winded at this point

• Preacher Curl
  30 @ ((8))
  30 @ 6
  30 @ ((8))
  I am making NO progress on biceps; I remember it took me a loooong time last year to break the bicep plateau as well

• Cable triceps pulldown
  37.5 @ 8
  37.5 @ (10)
  37.5 @ ((9))

• Knee-ups
  16
  ((17))
  ((((16))))
  yes, it took me FOUR tries to do 16 on last set

• Post-workout cooldown
  Bike 5 min
  start/end/max heart rate 141/136/147

Notes

• weight 225
• I missed one exercise today, seated shrugs. There was a group on the machine,I was winded as hell, and couldn't think of a shoulder exercise to replace it (even tho I had my logbook on me ROFL)
• I had planned on some HIT work to finish out the session, but I was done with a capital D, so did bike cardio to end it.
• Although I am completely exhausted right now, I don't consider this a great session; it just feels to me like I didn't put in 100%.
