March 6 Workout

Biceps and triceps today. Completed the following super sets:


4 sets:
Barbell curl
4-6 reps @ 100 lbs.
Overhead triceps extension (aka French curl)
6-8 reps @ 85 lbs.


4 sets:
Preacher curls 
4-6 reps @ 70 lbs.
Triceps pressdown
6-8 reps @ 90 lbs.


Drop sets, standing dumbbell curl:
6 reps @ 50
6 reps @ 35
6 reps @ 25


Yes, it looks like a lot more work on the biceps than the triceps. On the arm days I tend to focus more on my biceps because they're stubborn and because the triceps already get a lot of work via their involvement in all pressing movements.


I don't do a lot on these isolation days because the biceps and triceps are assistors in so many movements they already get a plenty of work on other days. This is just like an extra incentive day.


I'll follow up with some ab work tonight and then do the leg workout first thing tomorrow morning.
