Mid-day Bicep & Tricep Workout

I hit the gym today to work biceps and triceps at heavy weights. After stretching I went right into hammer curls with the dumbbells at 40-35-30. Then, I did nosebreakers at 50-50-50 to give my bi's a rest. Then I hit the cable machine for tricep triangle bar pull downs of 110-100-90-80. This was the most weight I've done on triangle tri's ever and it felt good! I was able to put in decent reps of 8-10-12 for the 3 sets. I switched out the triangle bar for the rope and did rope pull downs of 80-70-60. This was really tough at a higher weight than I am accustomed to, but it was doable. I then switched out the rope for the handle and did bicep pull-downs of 30-20-10 with a ton of reps at 10 until muscle fatigue with both arms. After that I brought the bar to the floor level, tied on the curl bar and did 70-60-50 at far and close grip. I closed the day by using the free weight long bar for bicep reps of 75-70-65. I am exhausted after a great workout.

Weight = 178 (amazing...another 2 lbs lost without cardio & w/ still lifting)
