Day 11

Upper body workout:

superset of close-grip push-ups and upright rows, sets of 15 reps for each exercise 

My quadriceps and hamstrings are more muscularly lean than they have perhaps ever been. I attribute this primarily to my stationary bike ride every morning. To help consistently workout my upper body I am adding a simple pull-up routine to accompany my bike routine. After the bike I will do five pull-ups, rest for two minutes, then do a set of maximal reps. I will do this every day until next Saturday and see how it feels.

today's pull-ups: warm-up set of 5, two minute rest, then maximal effort set of 7 reps.
