    Weights: Upper Power

    Bench Press 5x3
    Cable Row 5x5
    Machine Decline Press 5x5
    Machine High Row 5x5
    Standing Smith OHP 3x5
    Cable Woodchoppers 3x10 (High, Cross, Low)

    Analysis: Remembered to give the hack squat OHP a try. Between the stability and the neutral grip, was able to significantly increase the weight used...so much so (>50% more) that I actually question its utility. Obviously no stabilizer muscles are involved and limiting weight used, but is that really the explanation for such a sharp increase in weight? True, I use a machine for my secondary chest/back exercises, so why not for shoulders? Will need to give some thought to this...

    Food: Last night was homemade pizza

    Happy Tuesday! Full schedule and class today. Lol, with the remodel going on, machines and benches were moved so the members were confused walking in. We have no squat racks until after Thursday though and people are dumbfounded on how to train legs. The elderly don't like the change because now they have to relearn where everything is.

    Cardio: Walking/jog- 260 calories

    Strength: chest- Hammer incline bench, machine flat bench, dips, cable crossovers 4x15

    Assessment: Steak and brocholi for dinner.

    I take a week off from lifting every three months, normally the last week of each quarter. However, based on my odd work schedule this week, I'll be taking this week off from lifting (Mar 4-10).
