It really felt good to lift after having another night of decent sleep. Once again, it was manifested in the numbers, as I set new PRs in every lift for the day. I added in Tri. Dip Machine as someone was using the dips bars. However, she was done just as I was stretching out, so I ran over and knocked out a few sets just to stay on track.
I love performing dips and chins with weight around my waist as I remember the days when I was using the bar to HELP me do the exercise, not a belt with plates to make the exercise harder to perform! So strapping on 2-45’s for chin’s and 3-45’s for dips was a tremendous victory for me.
