Pretty busy week at work which meant I couldn't get to the gym until today. Having blitzed myself recently with HIT based routines I took a 'break' and went to a more traditional routine for today. I should tell you I have a near nude part in a film coming up on monday where I will be covered in body paint and prosthetics. This meant I want to train with some emphasis on the showy muscles and to eat with that in mind too. I will be consuming lots of water today and tomorrow. The nothing tomorrow evening onwards. I'll be dropping my sodium intake and carbing up somewhat as well. This should make me look nice and full on monday, tuesday and wednseday as my body will continue to suck out water. This is a tip I got from Justin Harris at Troponin Nutrition who, along with Shelby Starnes, know more about getting into great shape than anyone I know.

Today...

DB Bench Press - 80'sx10, 100'sx10, 120'sx5
EZ Curls - 100lbsx10, 110lbsx10, 135lbsx5
DB Tri Ext - 55'sx10x10
DB Conc Curls - 55'sx9/9
DB Hammer curls - 55'sx6/6
Seated Inc Rear Delts - 35'sx15x15
Side Lat Raise - 35'sx10x10
Toes to bar - 15x12
Calves - 2px15, 3px12, 4px10

All done in about 45 minutes and without the sicky, drained feeling of a pure HIT workout.
