My Workout Program
I wont go into any other body part workouts for know because they are hampered by an injury so here's a break down of the one thing I can do without my bad wrist affecting me.
Before we start I usually will start a lifting routine such as this by adjusting my weight increments & number of reps by my ability to finish the last set. If I can't get a full set of reps I dial back the weight until I can. I typically will start with 8 reps each set until the last set of 8 start to get easy. Then I move all my reps up to 10. When this starts to get easy I'll up the weight and begin the same process over again.
before I start I do some good comprehensive stretches for about 5 min.
"I rest about 1.5 to 2 minutes between sets"
Lat pull downs on cable machine slow & controlled both down & up.
120lb x 10
140lb x 10
160lb x 10
180lb x 10
200lb to failure. which today was 5 before form started to break.
Seated rows on cable machine. Slow and controlled concentrating on form.
140lbs x 10
160lbs x 10
180lbs x 10
200lbs x 10
Bent over single arm dumbbell rows on flat bench. On this movement I make sure to get full extension on the negative and explode on the positive.
105lbs x 10
125lbs x 10
135lbs x 10
145lbs x 10
Lat pull downs on the hammer strength machine.
2-45lb plats each side x 10
add 25lbs x 10
add 25lbs x 5 then with out resting I go directly to single arm pulls to failure.
Hammer strength seated row machine concentrating on squeezing my shoulder blades together at the top.
45lb plate on each side x 10-12
add 25lb on each side and go to failure.
Then I go to dumbbell shrugs.
warm up with 70lb dumbbells x 10 holding at the top for a couple seconds each rep.
85lbs x 10 controlled pausing at the top
95lbs x 10 controlled pausing at the top
105lbs x 10 controlled pausing at the top
115lbs x 10 controlled pausing at the top
as soon as I'm done with this last set I move down in ten lb. increments and do "fast" sets of ten with no rest in between sets until I get down to the 35lb dumbbells.
I polish off my work out with band raises on the lower back bench...I don't know what this peace of equipment is called.
I put a band under the legs of the bench and reach down and hold the stretched band and do lower back raises holding at the top with a straight back. I don't have a set amount here. I just go till I'm ready to go home and cry lol.
And that concludes back day.

Oh and the name CeleryBob comes from two different nicknames. My best friend calls me Cbob and another gym buddy named me Celery. She is a female bodybuilder who saw me doing push ups at the gym and said "See, even skinny girls can do push ups, way to go Celery!" With a name like Celynda I have no shortage of nicknames, lol!

Hey Eric, you're welcome & as I said earlier, it's totally deserved! Tendonitis is horrible. I had it in both arms for ages, it really limits what you can do. I've been well, but too inconsistent with my training for the past 6months. I started setting that straight about 2 weeks ago and I've started to get my entusiasm for the gym back again. Good luck with the weights session today; I bet it feels great to be lifting again! Chris.

Hey Eric! I saw that you're on the "We Mirin' SE" list. Congratulations on the great work! You totally deserve it. How's your wrist holding up to being back at work? Chris.

Great news fella! It'll be tough being back at work after such a long time off but you'll be back into it in no time. I'll wager that a few months ago it felt like you'd never be back on-site. Good luck next week & let us know how the first few days go. Take care. Chris.
