EZ-bar curls +90x4 +90x3
Face Pulls 55x10 70x10 80x8
Glad your found a new place and its working out , its important you like where your working out , makes it that much easier to get up and go to it !Quote:

Depending on the gym setup you could maybe even ask someone working at the gym to give you a spot. I've run into the same issue with bench press because I finally figured out a great self-spotting system with a power rack but this new place doesn't have even 1 power rack.Quote:

Squats 135x5 225x3 275x4 225x8,10
Seated Hamstring Curl 90x8 115x8
Standing Calf Raise 215x8,7,6
The people there at that time of day are usually pretty serious about getting the job done. Lets face it, anyone getting up at that time of day to train isn't interseted texting...Quote:
