Today was Workout B of Fat Loss III in The New Rules of Lifting and it was another killer. I was amazed at how hard the workout was. Each giant set has 4 exercises performed with no rest, but with 60 seconds rest between giant sets.
Exercise | Weight/Sets/Reps |
Front Squat | 175 x 2 x 10 155 x 2 x 10 |
Chin-ups (assisted) | (160) 4 x 10 |
Step ups | 30 x 4 x 10 |
Dumbbell push press | 40 x 4 x 10 |
Back Squat | 65 x 2 x 20 |
Lat pulldown | 60 x 2 x 20 |
Step ups | 10 x 2 x 15 |
Dumbbell overhead press | 25 x 2 x 20 |
It was a pretty amazing workout. I was barely able to get out the last reps of each set. It was exhilirating at the same time!
My focus in the gym today was excellent. At one point, I was without energy, but I visualized myself completing the set and I was able to finish the set. If the fat doesn't burn off with this workout regimen, I'm not sure it ever will.
