The alert among you will notice that today’s exercise is happening a couple of days later than it should be. The reason for this is that you need a rest day between day 2 and day 3. “But you had two days rest” I hear you cry! True, and now I have a piece of advice: on your rest day do not decide to cycle 40 miles however nice the weather is, especially after quite an intense leg workout the day before. So really I only had one day off exercise as I could barely do anything as my butt was saddle sore. Why do they make saddles as thin as a credit card? (Take a cushion next time - Beeble)
Today’s Workout
Today’s routine is dedicated to the back and triceps and is getting progressively harder than before. I have to say though after completing it today I did feel very good about myself. I have improved my strength on the back exercises and will hopefully be on target for the experiment and be back to my pre-break fitness levels. So let’s get straight to the workout.
The Program
The first two exercises are supersets which means no rest between the exercises only after the second one is completed.
