Fitness Log - Back / Shoulders - Week 4

Today was a special day, as I will be overseas on Thurs/Fri this week, thus will miss my back/shoulders workout, so I skipped arms day and did back AND shoulders. I may end up phasing out arms day, because I don't really feel any benefits from it, plus it's hurting my wrists.

Deadlifts - Previous : 70kg straight. Now: 70kg prog (up)
555
I was pleasantly surprised by this. I can pull 75kg now! Albeit the last rep I took 2 tries lol. Didn't get a good grip nor braced myself enough to lift on the first try. Gonna keep going up!

Military Press - Previous: 35kg. Now: 37.5kg (up)
665 (prog)
Woot! I think I would have been able to squeeze out the last rep if I had taken a good breath and really pushed it hard, but I failed out on my first try and didn't try again. Will up it to 40kg from the start next time yay 10kg plates!

Lat Pull downs - previous: 45kg. Now: 50kg
666
Back at SAFRA, so the machine was in kilograms. I find this quite tough though, don't think my lats are very strong. Maybe I should do more chinups rather than skip them (I skipped them today because I wanted to focus on deadlifts)

seated shoulder DB press - previous 16kg. Now: 17.5kg
666
At the gombak gym, there is no 18kg, so there's no natural progression from 16kg apart from increasing reps. Here at SAFRA I got to do 17.5kg, so it was good. Didn't have much difficulty finishing it, love this exercise can really dig deep and push through.

Crunches - previous 60. now: 70
Lol, surprised myself here. I do this till failure, so I guess I've to aim for 80 next time.
