I found a way to do chins without making my elbows act up. On the cable crossover apperatus, instead of doing chins with all the grips facing me, I turn around and do them with the grips facing away from me. For whatever reason it works!!! So, 100 reps in a day, here I come!!!
My summer schedule of classes are as follows - Wireless Networking I and II and MS Server. If anyone has any imput, I’m listening.
Flat Bench…working these back in
135x5
185x3
225x3
245x1x5 Nice and solid, no back pain while arching, which is why I quit doing these in the first place.
Dips…My shoulder actually let me do these today…yay!!!
BWx5x3
Did some low/back - hams work along with some shrugs. Little tweak behind the shoulder blade but I got an hour in today. This was scheduled to be a pull day but for the time being, I’m staying away from pulls.
what are the current goals for lifting here Rug?[/quote]
End of year goals:
Incline Press - 315; Current 285
Box Squat - 365; Current 305
Sumo Pull - Not sure yet, issues with back; Current 335
Standing Mil - 255; Current 240
Body Comp - A little less sloppy; Current A little sloppy (Although I’ve dropped 13lbs since Jan1, 2011)
Some are realistic, some are a little lofty. However, I’m working towards them all.

Nice presses, dips and krocs, Rug. Why 11 reps on the krocs?
And what is the “H” in “PCH”?[/quote]
The bells at my gym only go up to 110 with no 105 in between so I’m gonna work up to 5 sets of 15 at 100 then move up to 110 and start over at 7 reps and work those up to 15. Hopefully, by then, I can talk the owner into getting some more bells, like to 150+. PCH is Pushups, Chins (full extension) and Hindu Squats (I dislike lunges)[/quote]
I’ve used the curl bar for db rows. You can load that as heavy as you like and it’s harder than dumbbells. You may make a squat rack curler cry, though.

Especially if I stand in the rack whilst I do them!!!
