Another shattering workout

What can i say? I am so tired i'm suprised i can type! Went to the gym with Leigh, Kester, and Rob. Did a hell of a lot of weights followed by some cardio. To be honest what we did was not well structured but it was a session all in all.

Started off with 13 continuous close grip pull ups. This was brought up because Kester want to join the army and for that you need to be able to do 15 continuously (amongst other things) - so we all gave it a go. Kester managed 10, Rob did 12 i think, and Leigh did 3.

Leg Press:
Set 1: 70kg x 15 reps
Set 2: 97kg x 15 reps
Set 3: 160kg x 10 reps

Leg Curl:
Set 1: 42kg x 15 reps
Set 2: 56kg x 15 reps
Set 3: 77kg x 8 reps

Bench Press:
Set 1: 40kg x 10 reps
Set 2: Failed on 60kg. Wasn't impressed but i was still recovering from the pull-ups!?!

Seated Row:
Set 1: 70kg x 10 reps
Set 2: 79kg x 10 reps
Set 3: 88kg x 5 reps

Tricep Extension using Cables:
Set 1: 40kg x 15 reps
Set 2: 50kg x 12 reps
Set 3: 60kg x 12 reps

Bicep Curl using Cables:
Set 1: 30kg x 12 reps
Set 2: 35kg x 12 reps
Set 3: 40kg x 6 reps Maxed out on this.

Abs Machine:
Set 1: 30kg x 15 reps
Set 2: 50kg x 15 reps
Set 3: 85kg x 15 reps

To Finish the session we hit the Cardio. I did 10 minutes on the Stationary Bike (Top level - level 20) and then we had a small competition. 1000m row.

Both Leigh and Rob stopped after 600m, me and Kester kept going. In the end i won by about 100m but my god we were all shattered. Stood up and nearly fell over again. Ha!

I am hoping to have the strength to do the week 6 workout tonight, but i am also going to go for a leasurly swim with my lil bro - hopefully it will reduce the ache (Last time i went to the gym with Leigh i ached from Wednesday till Saturday.) .

Will keep you updated.
