Back & Biceps and some thoughts on Genetic Limitations Video: youtu.be/E2HyuOvIMKI Todays workout was the 3rd workout in a row after Deadlifts and Legs so I was very sore and beat up going in. But, the workout went very well and I am happy with the outcome. I would have normally done more heavy sets on the Weighted Pull-ups but I think my muscle gain is going to restrict how much weight I can add to myself. Hopefully as my bodyweight steadies itself and settles at 92-93 kgs I will adapt and go back to being able to perform 2-3 reps with +70 added to me. I was very cautious about the 140 DB Rows but everything went smoothly. Ive made a mention of Genetics in the video because I saw one of those motivational posters saying F*CK GENETICS and I felt that was very misleading. Genetiics are important to keep expectations in check. I will never be a 1000+ pound Deadlifter no matter how many chemicals I inject into my body. But does that mean I will not try to be as strong as possible? Ofcourse I will. But I certainly cannot overcome my genetics and become superman. That is my point. Weighted Pull-ups: +70 x 1 +45 x 3 +45 x 3 BW x 12 Lat Pulldowns: 100 x 18 112.5 x 13 125 x 13 112.5 x 13 + 6 = 19 Dumbbell Rows: 50 x 20 140 x 4 140 x 4 60 x 15 65 x 20 + 7 = 27 Cable Rows: 80 x 16 80 x 17 90 x 15 + 6 = 21 80 x 15 + 5 = 20 Hammer Curls: 25 x 12 x 3 Preacher Curls: 20 x 7 x 3
