Hey gang! Just got back from the gym. I am really pushing the powerlifting training even harder, and there is a meet in March I am thinking about competing in. Whadda ya think?

As always Val, great workout, I love seeing everyone workin it!!! Another 14 hour day, but I still got a small one in, I cannot believe I want to workout after days like this, I do not work hard physically anymore, but am brain dead(Well I kind of start that way too). Anyway, Dumbbell Incline Bench Press: Set 1: 15 reps @ 35.0 lbs | Set 2: 15 reps @ 35.0 lbs Dumbbell Arnold Press: Set 1: 15 reps @ 25.0 lbs | Set 2: 15 reps @ 25.0 lbs | Set 3: 10 reps @ 25.0 lbs Dumbbell Rear Lateral Raise: Set 1: 15 reps @ 15.0 lbs | Set 2: 15 reps @ 10.0 lbs Cable Triceps Pushdown (V bar): Set 1: 15 reps @ 60.0 lbs | Set 2: 15 reps @ 75.0 lbs Stability Ball Crunches: Set 1: 40 reps | Set 2: 40 reps Mike

Great Job Mikee!!! I have a really hard time with those rear lateral raises, makes my shoulder hurt pretty bad...I wish I could do them tho, it's a good exercise. I know what you mean about mentally. I just think it's great to go to work all day, then still want to go workout...I know before it was all I could do to get the work day in! But when you think about it we were moving heavy weight all day!! What's really funny is I spend 1/2 my workday going over in my head how I am gonna work out that night.... never thought I'd be like that in a million years!
