	2005/03/08, 08:43 PM either (from last workout) Close Grip bench (12*,12,5,4,3) /\ pressdowns on pulldown station(7,5,3) Sitting DB French Press (10) -threw it in for some variation Dips (12*, 10) -threw it in for some extra work Sometimes I do pressdowns first and go heavier or do DB french Press first or Ez Bar- Lying French Press... So I try to do 1-2 compound exercises first, and usually I try to go very heavy in the range of 5 reps...sometimes I switch it up and change my objective to just hit certain number of reps with a weight(like to improve by 1-2 reps)...most of the time I do around 8 sets total, sometimes 10...and sometimes as little as 6...if short on time or just decide to go for very low reps and rest mroe between sets ...
