Killer Chest and Tricep workout

Bottom Half BenchOnly: 40 x 135, 30 x 155, 20 x 185
supersetted with
DE Bench: 8 x 185 (with chains), 6 x 205 (no chains), 4 x 225

50 crunches, 50 pushups

DB Press fast: 15 x 65, 20 x 65, 25 x 65
supersetted with
DE DB Flys: 8 x 35, 6 x 30, 4 x 25

2 x (40 crunches superset with 40 pushups)

Speed Dips: 12, 15, 18 (max)
supersetted with
DE Floor Press (legs up): 3 x 8 x 135

3 x (30 crunches superset with 30 pushups)

Total crunches & pushups: 220 each

My arms were so beat that I could barely take my shirt off afterwards. On the dips and pushups it was the first rep that was the hardest. Once I got a few going, my muscles went into overdrive and I was able to keep going, but man was I fatigued between sets. These weren't very strict supersets, but just barely enough rest to actually get the reps done that I had prescribed. This was a fantastic workout!
