Day 5-Legs, back and biceps

Hi another session at the ymca today. Must be the most times iv been to the YMCA gym in a week ever. Had a good session today and focused on really hitting the 12 mark in my reps, not too sore at the moment but DOMS will kick in tomorrow im sure.

Today consisted of:

1. Back-Back extensionRM, PulldownRM and seated rowRM
2. Legs- Leg extensionR, Leg CurlRM, seat leg pressRM
3. Biceps-Wide grip curlBB, narrow grip curlBB and standing concentration curlsDB

Again i did a quick warmup for 3 minutes on the cross trainer just to get my muscles ready and prepare my heart and lungs.

Also i did a warmup set of Pulldown, leg extension and leg curl. The warmup set was of a light weight for which i could manage 15reps at a pace of 2:2 (2 second up, two seconds down). This further prepared my muscles and got blood pumping to that area, this helps prevents injuries and can help you to get the maximium amount of reps out as your muscle is ready to workout.

Did you KNOW- Delayed onset of muscle soreness (DOMS). This is when you start to experience an ache and stiffness in the affected muscle. Usually happens 24 hours after doing exercise and can be felt the most between the period of 24-72 hours after exercise and sometimes can take up to a week before the ache has fully subsided. Its a good sign if you experience this as it means your muscles will be growing, repairing and adpating themselves to the exercises and strain you put them under.
