Pullups | 3 | 10 / 8/ 6 | Body Weight |
Dumbell Press | 2 | 6 / 10/ 10 | ? |
Bicep Curl | 3 | ? | ? |

I had one major improvement on the Paralell Bar Dips: I started using additional weight besides my body weight I decided to do so, because I am making more than 15 repetitions on my first set with my body weight (witch is also an improvement!).
I am weak on Pullup and Bicep Curl, but I am more concerned about the Pullup exercise, because it is such a basic and awesome exercise for the upper body. I will start to make them a priority on the back exercises.
On the Squat I decided to not go to the 100Kg mark, instead I made a final giant set. That is, a 3 sets in one, where I made 12 repetitions with 80Kg and moved on to 12 Repetitions with 60 Kg and only stopped at 18 repetitions with 40Kg. My only rest time on this giant set was when I change the plates from the squat barbell to reduce the weight.
My main reason for the giant set was twofold: give some shocking workout to the legs and to excel on my squat technique. Technique is everything and it is the most important thing in bodybuilding, only after technique comes the weight.
I tried boxing last week, and I ended exhausted! It is a tremendous cardiovascular workout, I will go again this week.
Stay in shape!
