CGBP
5X10-12

Chins
6x3

Tricep Pushdowns
3x12


Could be better but no worries. Still building the foundations of the routine.

I like it....some tricep-focused pressing and some chins for balance.

Ah, rep counts....on any given day....!

Expected 2+, hit 7. Can't beat that.

I was going for 9-10 reps, that's why. But one thing I learned from my little experience in lifting is that the human body is not a machine, you can't go high performance 24/7. Plus I am on the exam period and studying for hours costs me in training focus.

As long as you stay consistent and do what you can each day it all works out in the end. Stay hard at it
