Chest and triceps

Another training session with Andy, and another set of impressive gains:

Exercise	Warmup	Set 1	Set 2	Set 3
Dumbbell Bench Press†	12×12kg	12×18kg	10×20kg	8×26kg(+30%)
Barbell Military Press	12×15kg	12×25kg	10×30kg	4×35kg
Dumbbell One Arm Triceps Extension	12×3kg	12×6kg	12×8kg	8×10kg
Triceps Dip	15×-25kg	12	10	8
Medicine Ball Incline Crunch‡		30×3kg	35×3kg	40×3kg

†: On a Bosu Ball, rather than a bench.
‡: Throwing the medicine ball and catching it between crunches.

After utterly caning our triceps with the presses and extensions, I have no idea how I managed 3 sets of dips. I practically fell off the bars at the end, my arms were so close to failure. We can push ourselves much harder than we often think.
In the last set of medicine ball crunches, I felt tired after fifteen, knackered after twenty, and ready to give up at twenty-five. At thirty, adrenalin took over, and I hammered out the last ten reps with even more energy than I started.
