Good looking deload. It's still a good workout, but it's different than your normal workout. So, you get recovered and still feel productive.

Summary:

Had great fun today. Arms felt really pumped after the curls. I understand why all the curl jockeys sit there for ages now, though no, I'm not succumbing to the darkside.

[GazzyG]

Cheers Pope, it's nice to feel a pump, I normally don't get much of one after my 6 reps.
