Seems like everything that could go wrong did go wrong last night. I didn’t feel like going to the gym, so I decided to do it in the basement. What a mistake that was. There’s something wrong with how my bench is set up. I can’t get my body far enough down to do normal reps without the bar hitting the holders. I scoot my ass down as far as I can until I’m grinding my cock against the leg extension pole pressed up against it like I’m a fucking stripper, but it’s still not far enough. Kept feeling a weird pain in my right arm, I shouldn’t have even done them.
Still got a decent pump from it and then felt some great activation during flys, but I’m skeptical about that total gym. Everyone I see using it YouTube are either emaciated men with refugee bodies or girls with nicer tits than mine.
Because of the bench and its long ass holders, I had to tilt my body and arms back way further than you should to do shoulder presses. Lifting the bar from behind my head and swinging it where it needed to go fatigued me before the sets started, and the reps kept aggravating my body. Got good shoulder activation, shouldn’t have done them though.
By the time I got to triceps, I was pissed off at the bar and unwilling to go through whatever bullshit it would come up with for close-grip bench presses, so I just spammed out 6 sets of plate tricep extensions. I got an insanely good stretch on these sets, better than I do with dumbbells.
Lifts took twice the time they should from messing around with that stupid fucking bar. Earbuds died in the middle of my workout, then my speakers kept messing up. Once I got to post-lift cardio, my Apple Watch died one minute after getting on the bike. I went upstairs and ended it right there.
Today’s pull day, going to redeem myself on some real equipment. I’m gonna try those assisted pull ups
