This weeks routine (Week 5)

This weeks routine is going to be different from the usual mainly to avoid any exercises that may aggravate my forearm. I'll also be going super light on the exercises to avoid putting to much strain on the injury.

Day 1 - Push

Incline barbell Bench press - 3 x 15 - 10 (70 kg)
Barbell bench press - 3 x 15 - 10 (65 kg)
Standing overhead press - 3 x 6 - 10 (37.5 kg)
Dumbbell flyes - 3 x 15 - 10 (12.5 kg)
Dumbbell skullcrushers - 3 x 15 (10 kg)
Triceps kickbacks - 3 x 15 - 10 (8 kg)

Day 2 - Rest/abs



Abs supersets

Day 3 - Legs

Barbell squats - 3 x 15 - 10 (75kg)
Barbell lunges  - 3 x 15 - 10 (47.5 kg)
Leg curls - 3 x 15 - 10 (35 kg)

Single leg calf raises - 3 x to failure

Day 3 - Rest/other exercises

Ab supersets - reverse crunches/vertical leg crunches x 3 to failure

Barbell calf raises - 3 x 20 - 10 (60 kg)

Day 4 - Pull 

Barbell rows - 3 x 15 - 10
Dumbbell rows - 3 x 15 - 10
Rear lateral raises - 3 x 12 - 6
Barbell curls - 3 x 12 - 6
Alternating dumbbell curls - 3 x 12 - 6

Notes: Cardio each rest day. I will be using reverse pyramid training for all compound exercises, and straight sets for isolation exercises.
