And the Wednesday Blog moves to Thursday...

Yep, in keeping with the week's theme of blogging a day late (and being far more than a dollar short), I bring to you the special Thursday edition of my Wednesday blog.

Same story -- busy with work, with writing, with working out, and next thing I know the clock's on the upward swing toward 1 a.m., so I didn't manage to get back online for my blog last night. I do PLAN to blog again tonight, but here's the quick scoop on how Wednesday went.

The workout today was particularly challenging. You know how some days you just have it, and some days you don't? Well, this felt like a "don't" day. I did increase my weight and reps some during the chest workout, but really seemed to run out of gas about the time I hit shoulders, so the rest of the night was a struggle, and I even fell off a bit on the weight or reps.

Chest, shoulders, triceps

135 pounds -- 10 reps
185 pounds -- 8 reps
225 pounds -- 6 reps (yeah! My first time back to 225 pounds in a good, long time!)

200 pounds -- 8 reps

Incline barbell press

Triceps
Tricep pressdown
160 pounds -- 10 reps

And that's about it for Wednesday. Thanks for stopping by, and check back in later for the actual Thursday blog on Thursday. I'll get it done...really...I think...most likely...

  1. Uh oh, no Thursday blog post yet. Though I'm confident this is just a hiccup in blogging, not eating/training...

  2. Ugh, just got home, no time to blog!

    Training, eating still going okay, blogging not so much. I'm think the late Thursday blog might be combined with what is beomcing the late Friday blog in a SPECIAL SUPER DUPER SATURDAY Blog...
