I wanted to start the workout a little different than normal today. So, I started with T-bar rows. I was stiff and cold when I started so I took my time and warmed up thoroughly. I did 2 sets of 12 with 45lb, then 70 for 12, 90-12, 135-10, 180-8, and finished with 270 for three good reps, 2 rest pause reps and 1 drop set. Now I was warm (ha ha.) Next was wide grip pull-ups: 3 sets of 10, the last set I had to pause to get the last 3. After that, old style rows with the end of the bar sticking out of the wall and a double-D handle around the neck (I used 25's for a better range of motion): 75-12; 125-12;    175-8; 225-6; 200-8. I finished with straight arm pulldowns with a rope: 100-12; 120-12; 140-10,8. And I was PUMPED!
