Real Solid workout. Your Lat. raises look good. What do your upright rows look like with free weights. The reason I ask is because I want to see if the machine is close to true weight and movement.

I know I've been lagging bad, for sure today when my brother gets out of work I'll snap some.

Movement wise cables and pulleys actually have more variance than free weights, mostly because you can lean back/forward/ect to switch the path that the cable wants to retract in. This is opposed to free weights ware gravity is only taking those bad boys one direction...down.

Weight-wise no, 130 lbs on the cable is not 130 lbs freeweight, the cable is always MUCH lighter.

That's one movement I really hated and just got into. It used to be hell on my shoulders so I used the cable for a while to get my joint used to them. After a while I just went nuts on the cable. I'll switch to the free weights next week because either way I can row the whole stack 12+ times now, and that many reps is not going to make me grow.....

Thanks Kris, I was just curious. Still awesome workout. Maybe 120 or 125 on free weights will give you a lower rep range. I will keep watching.

I always love to see overhead lifts in plp's logs. KEEP ON PUSHING!

Those are some insane overhead press reps. I get shoulder fatigue real fast and don't think I could come anywhere near those.

I was pretty pissed about this workout. I havnt flat barbell benched in about two years, and i felt that i should throw it in. And to my much to my dismay it ended up being weaker than my inclines of 2 weeks ago =\ I dont know if it was due to the deload messing with my strength, or if it was because i never flat benched and was just not feeling the difference. i was furious.
either way, going to work on form comfortability and get to the 405 status quickly.
