Today we performed Back/Biceps .... the P90X workout...... NOTE: The way this particular workout is set up, You intersperse pull-ups with bicep curls throughout the length of the workout... you perform pull-ups at the beginning, in the middle and toward the end of the workout and a variety of biceps curling movements in between. I performed it this way this morning but I am going to make some changes. You cannot effectively work your upper back/lat muscles if you are constantly pre-fatiguing your biceps muscles. Your biceps receive the brunt of the work, neglecting your back to some extent.
In the future I will still perform all of the exercises in the DVD, but I will be performing ALL of the upper back movements in the beginning of the workout, followed by all the bicep movements. In this way my back will be completely stimulated, followed up by a very intense bicep workout. I will perform all back exercises with a 30 sec. rest between exercises, as well as all of the bicep movements with this amount of rest..... I will take a 1 min. water break at the completion of all the back/pullup movements and one more 1 min. break in the middle of the biceps movements.
