On Monday I walked 18 and we played a little more than an hour of pickleball yesterday.

Chest & Shoulders

5 Sets

  • 5 Incline Bench Press

I went 10×45 and then increased 10 pounds on next sets to go 85-105-125-145, and increased five pounds on the heavy sets to go 160-170-180. B started with 45 and then increased 10 to go 65-75, increased five to 80, did 80-80-81.25, and finally got all five reps with 82.5.

4 Sets

  • 6/6 Landmine Press (45 + 45 / 16.25)
  • 8 DB Pullovers (60/45#)

We both went with our increased number from last week on the landmine. I really felt my wrists for a day or so after using the kettlebell for the pullovers last week, so went back to a dumbbell today, jumping up to the 60 pounder.
