Shoulder Press 16 152sec
Lat Pull Down 15 133sec
Leg Press 20 123sec
Static holds. First number is the number of plates lifted (out of 20 on a 200lb stack) and second number is number of seconds held. For leg press the pulley arrangement effectively doubles the weight. "TUL" = Time Under Load. I hold until failure or 3 minutes. If I reach 3 minutes I stop and increase the weight next cycle.
Shoulder Press: third attempt at this weight with TUL down 16 seconds from last attempt . Lat Pull Down: first attempt at this weight. Out of curiosity I checked my records to see what my TUL was the last time I did LPD at this weight. I did 96 sec on August 1, 2010 back when I was using a much shorter TUL target so it seems I have made reasonable progress in the intervening months if not in the last couple of weeks. Leg Press: sixth attempt at this weight with TUL up only 3 seconds over last week's disappointing performance.
Overall not a great workout. Excuses: came down with a mild cold on Monday which is just about gone now; cut my carbs to under 100 g/day and lost ~ 2 lbs in the past week; did Aikido yesterday for the first time in 3 weeks; etc. etc. Anyway, will consider taking a week off now that I have had two less than stellar workouts in a row.
