Gym Diary: Monday, October 15, 2012

     Pull ups have always been hard for me to do.  Maybe that's why I should do them!  I did a few today.  Maybe I will keep doing a few... and see how well I improve over time.

     See the pull up bars at the top of the cable rack.  I did a could sets using each set of bars.  Pull ups were easier to do using the parallel bars.  Still, I think I will keep using both sets....

     In the distance you can see the squat rack set up for dead lifts. 

     I used that rope to do high chops and straight arm pull downs.

     Here's the set up I used to do inverted rows.

     This is how I did crunches today.
