Today was full of heavy pushing and some high rep accessory work.

One thing to ensure I reach my training goals is I’m keeping a precise record of each training session.  Actually, it’s something I do all the time and you should too.  This allows you to really dial in your training.  I keep track of how I feel at the beginning and end of the session, rest periods, sets, reps, etc.  And of course it will let you know how you’re progressing.  I’ve said it before, some days you have your way with iron and some days the iron has it’s way with you.  Whether it’s the former or latter, your records will let you know whether you just need to go for a little more volume or jack up the weight!  You’d be surprised if you’re not already doing so how keeping good records can really boost your training.

Check out today’s session below.

My bench still sucks but even a little progress is better than nothing I suppose!

I kept my rest periods tight today, 1-1:30 max.  It helped pushed the pace and kept me focused.
