Training Day Three Hundred Forty

And so we've finally reached the end. A whole week of informational meetings, work, early morning walks, training and preparations has finally come to an end. It's with the feeling of complete exhaustion that I finally got to hit the gym before getting home and getting some much needed rest. Luckily, for me, my girlfriend - aka the massage therapist - is kind enough to treat my sore body after finishing this training entry. Good stuff!

# Workout Notes:
Due to all the meetings and stuff that's been going on, I had to do most of this week's workouts in Båstad. Hence, this is the first workout back in my home gym (Laholms HälsoCenter) that's included the new low-reps routine. That meant that I also had to switch some of the exercises and evaluate what will actually work. The only real issue I had with this was the Wrist Curls in the Smith Machine. For some reason, I get some weird kind of pain in the palm of my hand when I curl my wrist. It doesn't always happen, but in the smith machine it was definitely acting up. Therefore, I decided to cut things short and move on to the Reverse Barbell Curls instead. All-in-all, a good first back workout with the low-rep routine!
