Back / Bicep Workout

So I realized that posting my exercises will be redundant and tiring so I'll just say what I did briefly.

Back
Weight Pullups
Lat Pulldowns
Behind the back Lat Pulldowns
Rows
Deadlifts

Biceps
Preacher Curls
Straight Bar Curls
Bicep Machine

Man, that was exhausting :/

2 / 01 / 10

I incorporated a new day into my workout which is usually
  • Day One : Back / Biceps
  • Day Two : Chest / Triceps
  • Day Three : Legs
  • Day Four : Shoulders
But now I added  : Day Five : Core and Forearms. 

I realized that my forearms were slacking even though I do dead-lifts and heavy weights. Plus, I needed to strengthen my core to be able to do heavier weight on deadlifts, squats, and ect.

1) Bodyweight Leg Raises superset Crunches : 3 Sets ; 15 reps each ( 15 per exercise )

2) Weight Crunches

  1. 10lbs - 15x
  2. 15 lbs - 10x
  3. 20 lbs - 8x
3) Obliques 
  1. 45lbs 10x
  2. 45 lbs 10x
  3. 45lbs 10x
4) Farmers Walk
  1. 60 lbs 
  2. 65 lbs
  3. 70 lbs
And a bunch of other forearm workouts that I don't know the name for lol

Introduction

Hello, and welcome to my workout blog. I'm currently 18 years old and I am a freshman at Queens College in New York. I'm 6'2 and weigh 164 lbs. I started working out probably one and a half years ago. I was introduced to it by my brother and since then been going 5-6 times a week. I go to Twins Gym; a decent sized gym which is convenient for me because it is only 2 blocks away from me.

I'll be posting as frequent as I can since school is starting and all. Thanks for viewing!
