Richard Gibney's 365 Days of Fitness: Day 256

Day 256 Today's Workout;

The September rush at work has hit. The last couple days at work have been really busy. In a few weeks, I'll probably be longing for some shorter days, but after a busy summer of travelling I'm keen to get back into the swing of things.

I thought I had a break today between 10 and 11 but it turned out the client I thought was away wasn't leaving until next week. This meant I had 10 sessions back to back without a break. As I mentioned I was keen to get back to work but I do need things like food. I managed to sneak away for a few minutes and get some snacks which helped me survive. However, by the time my last session was over I was famished and really wanted to get home for some dinner and time on the couch. However, I had to get my workout in, so although I really didn't want to I stuck it out and did some weights.

Superset 1:

Exercise 1: Low Inclined Db Chest Press 4 sets / 10 - 12 reps / no rest Exercise 2: Neutral Grip Pull-up with Knees Up 4 sets / 10 - 12 reps / 60 seconds rest

Superset 2:

Exercise 1: Neutral Grip Machine Chest Press 3 sets / 10 - 12 reps / no rest Exercise 2: Single Arm Dumbbell Row 3 sets / 12 reps per side / 60 seconds rest

Superset 3:

Exercise 1: Upwards Cable Chest Fly 3 sets / 12 - 15 reps / no rest Exercise 2: Rope Face Pull 3 sets / 12 - 15 reps / 60 seconds rest

The workout started out pretty feebly, but as it went on and I got the blood pumping I got a little more into it. My left shoulder is feeling better, although It still has some room for improvement. Most of my upper body movements are relatively pain free but I still don't feel comfortable pushing anything heavy. I've been meaning to get in to see my Chiro for some active release. I tried the other day but Helena is out of town this week. I've booked myself in for next Wednesday. Hopefully with a little good pain I can get back to push hard without the bad pain.
