Last Night: Chest/Triceps/Shoulders

Another thing to celebrate: I finally did narrow pushups!!

My chest is one of my weaker areas. So trying to do a narrow pushup, after shaky arms and wobbly nerves, was always impossible for me to do without falling on my own hands. Until yesterday! I did it!

Here was last night's workout:

Wide pushups 3-12

Barbell bench press (bar only) 40X8, 40X8, 40X8
Side lateral raise* 15x8, 15x8, 15x8, 15x8
Flat bench cable flyes 15x8, 15x8, 15x8
Narrow pushups 3-8
Standing dumbbell triceps extension 20X10, 20X8, 20X8
Triceps pushdown 20X12, 20X12, 20X12

After all this, I declared that people should be required to employ designated drivers after an upper body day at the gym. It was so hard to lift my arms to drive, or turn the wheel smoothly, or lift any of my bags for that matter.

And I consider this to be the easy day.
