Comments:
I have been very pressed for time - busy season here. I missed one week because I worked through the w/e and just didn't have anything left for the gym. The next two workouts (above) were o.k. except that I didn't manage to get 100% out of myself on leg press. The other exercises were done to positive failure focusing on form and technique more than numbers. In the case of the horizontal pull-ups until form falls apart, I then do a few partials but don't count them - I now notice that I have made a bit of progress on this exercise, getting my chest up closer to the bar and feeling stronger throughout the movement. Motivation is a little low which is why I wimped out on leg press a bit. Weight is also low - 162 lbs, waist under 33 1/2".

Happy thanksgiving to all.
