Arnold Schwarzenegger - triceps

Had another great workout yesterday. Did it in the evening after work, in our pool. My sets were as follows: 10, 10, 10, 10, 15 = 55 total triceps dips. Pretty encouraging to be already making good gains over my initial max test of 12 dips. Amazing to me that I was able to do 3 more than the 1st test, after already doing 40 dips, with only a 60 second rest between sets.

I spend my rest time doing water aerobics with air barbells. So I keep moving for an active recovery. Seems to work OK.

I'm noticing some good workout burn the day after. Like push ups, triceps dips also work many other muscles. I can feel the ache in my back, shoulders and pectorals. I think it was a good choice after my six weeks of push ups.
