                        Bitterly cold in the garage today so I moved my workout inside; had to modify things a bit.

                          Cold kept me inside again today, so no belt squats.

                          DB press: 45 (each) [email protected]. Two to three minutes rest.

                          DB squat: 45 (each) x12x4@7. Two to three minutes rest. I did the first set in a clean position--with the dumbbells held at my shoulders. 12 reps were pretty hard so for the remaining sets I just held the DBs by my side.

                          Resistance band fly with rogue blue band: 15x3@7. 90 seconds rest.

                          Resistance band rear delt fly with rogue red band: 15x3@7-8. 90 seconds rest.

                          DB calf raise: 57.5 (each) x15x3@7. 60 to 90 seconds rest.

                          DB shrug: 75x12x3@7. 60 to 90 seconds rest.

                            Chest-supported DB row: 57.5 (each) x12x4@7-8. 2.5 minutes rest.

                            Incline DB bench: 48.75 (each) x12x3@7-8. 48.75x11x1@10. Three minutes rest.

                            Cable leg extension: 57.5x12x4@7. 90 seconds rest.

                            BB hip thrust: 185x10x3@7. 90 seconds rest.

                            EZ bar cable preacher curl: 25x15x1@5; 35x15x1@6. 90 seconds rest. Since I don't have a preacher-curl pad attachment I've been experimenting with different ways to do the movement. I tried resting my upper arms on a Swiss ball but didn't like that very much. Today I attached an EZ-curl bar to a cable, took a few steps back from the rack to get tension in the cable, and then squatted down like a catcher, and rested my upper arms on my knees as in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00VQMt4Xsys
                            Worked great--maybe even better than a preacher curl attachment.

                            Triceps rope press down: 38.75x15x2@8. 90 seconds rest.
