Break: Changing Jobs

In the run-up to changing jobs just over a week ago, I've let my weight training lapse rather badly. Kept up boot camp up until I left my old place, but that's obviously not enough to keep me in shape, as these numbers show:

ExerciseWarmupSet 1Set 2Set 3
Chin-up12×-40kg12×-25kg6×-15kg/4×-20kg8×-20kg(-20%)
Decline EZ Barbell Curl12×12.5kg12×15kg10×17.5kg8×20kg
Dumbbell Bent-over Row12×17.5kg12×22.5kg10×25kg8×27.5kg(-23.6%)
Dumbbell Lateral Raise12×5kg12×7kg10×8kg8×9kg


The decline barbell curls are much harder than regular curls, especially at the top of the movement.

Even though I didn't come close to my PBs, this session was really punishing. I could barely lift my arms to wash my face afterwards, and they still hurt now!

Hopefully I'll be back on form in a couple of weeks.
