4 sets of supersetted reverse curls and wrist curls to failure.(zero rest 50lbs barbell.)

and i forgot to mention my new ab routine i started a while ago so here it is:

crunches
left-side crunches
right-side crunches
heel touches
bicycle kicks
leg drive ups
reverse crunches
core body work

all to momentary failure with no rest in between. then after completed a short rest then i do them one more time.

todays workout took about 50 minutes to complete, i feel really good about this one i improved on virtually every lift (just reps not weight). had to take a short nap after work to refresh myself and it seemed to work. energy/ motivation = 8/10. i did this workout today(tuesday) instead of wednesday because i only had a 5 hour day today due to rain so i figured i could put forth the best effort on my back today. but since i now have untill saturday off, i may decide to do chest a day or 2 sooner becuase the weekend after this ill be out of town so ill have to workout all during the week not on the weekend so i dont miss anything. i may just choose to do some plyrometrics and wind sprints since hockey will be starting in a month.

*side note* yes i have been progressing good as you can see.. it still could be better. if any of you have any suggestions.. by all means share some knowledge. i know im not perfect and if any of you can find any holes in my routine it would be greatly appreciated.

Personally, I would do a couple more sets of low rep deads at the end.....and maybe even a set or two of heavy t-bars.

i was thinking of adding a set to bent over rows and t-bar rows. ill definatly consider the deadlift option. ill try it out and see if i progress any faster, i think im doing pretty good though, i increase at least a rep every set as of late on back excersizes, so im not to concerned about that yet.

i appreciate your comments though and im definatley adding some sets to deads, maybe 1 or 2. and we'll see about t-bars, maybe even bentover rows as well. but good luck in your training.
