60 + 10 w/u + 10 c/d = 80 mins

Today I decided to do bent over rows first because I want to begin focusing on them a bit more, and I was dreading four sets of weighted pullups :)  More specifically, I was dreading missing the lift because I just wasn't feeling up to it.

BOR was good, but still a bit awkward. I haven't gotten the groove of this movement yet; how far to lean over, how high to pull, where to pull (waist vs chest, etc.). Anyway, a lot of rowing. I did the last 2 sets underhand, but not sure which movement I liked better or felt working better. Underhand felt a little better, but it brings more bicep into the movement.(14mins). Pullups were good. I had BW, 4 sets of 10 written in. First set of body weight I did 12 w/o a lot of effort. Definitely progressing on these. Then I decided to grab the 35#DB and do 2 sets of weighted. These were good given I'd already done 6 sets of rows for back. Finished up with a set of 10 body weight.(11/25mins).

Curls felt heavy and "heavy" rear delts felt good.(10/35mins). I bumped weight on reverse grip pulldowns and this might have been a little heavy today. I didn't control the weight as well as I'd like.(7/42mins). Iso rows were really good. Did them one handed. Bumped up weight on incline curls and they were heavy but good.(12/54). Finished up w/ light rear delt fly's and tried to do knee crunches but it bothered my lower back again so I skipped them.(6/60mins).

I'm going to be out of town w/ Sarah this weekend w/ no access to a gym, so I've got to plan the rest of the week accordingly. This is supposed to be the last week of this training block with key lift attempts Sat and Sun.

Nutrition:
I weighed 173.6 this morning.  That's down a bit from yesterday.
