Both biceps tendon feel over-worked. Really solid, sharp pain so I endexed the push presses. I moved into skull crushers which felt good on the tendons, almost like a massaging effect in the elbows but when I went to dummy curls....PAIN, PAIN, PAIN....
I pushed through it slowly.
5 sets Skull Crushers
5 sets Dummy Curls (really light and slow)
30 min run.
Out.

I started with 135 and worked my way to 315. To the bucket means to go as low as possible without sacrificing form. Many would argue that anything below 90 degrees (parallel to the floor) is a waste and has no benefits...If that's the case, show me one olympic athlete, bodybuilder or powerlifter that doesn't incorporate deep squats. It is a natural, functional movement for the body.
I did 7 sets of these.
Then I did 7 rotations non-stop of:
Bear Complex
100m Sprints
Wasted

Too large of a jump on bench probably nuked my strength at the end...possibly.

Not a fan of cable anything but variety has its benefits.
