Tried to do some 3 board presses, but didn't have boards and the 10# plates I wrapped together weren't very balanced. I almost dropped the weights on my face. Ugh.
Tried 205 after that; but my CNS was just shot -- just couldn't "turn it on" to get the weights back up. Oy. I'd been lifting for almost 2 hours at this point. Talked with the trainer guy who was spotting me. He has an MA in kinesiology. Then did some support exercises.
Overhead cable extensions with v-bar: 8 x 3 sets
Face-pulls: 10 x 3 sets
Cable upright rows: 8 x 3 sets
Hammer curls: 10 x 3 sets
Barbell shrugs 10 x 2 sets
I'm beat and won't ever try that again. Stupid. stupid, stupid.

Sounds like a good day at the gym
I slept in this morning, up at 6 to shower, scarf down some oatmeal and head off to the train to work. Gonna have to fit a leg workout in some time tomorrow between a bar mitzvah in the morning and a herf in the afternoon. Guess that means going at 8 before everything starts. Getting up early on a Saturday sucks.
