Normally my oldest son, Steven, has plans on Fridays but this past week he decided he wanted to go to the gym with me. He actually likes it when there are several people at the gym but had to settle for Dear Old Dad this time.

Friday is my press day which required a bit of thought on my part but if I'm being honest I've been looking so forward to this day (upper body day with my son) for so long that I had everything scripted and mapped out in my head weeks ago!

We had to get all bloated with some salt, of course, then off to get the shoulders warmed up. Then Arnold Presses (of course!) followed by a short rest to let the pump go down and some Bench Press.

And you knew that I'd have to add bands to his bench press...right? Of course you knew that just like you knew that he would knock out a bunch of reps after sandbagging all of his other sets.

No idea if he will continue to come back as he spends most afternoons busy with after school activities but when given the option to sit somewhere without a wifi connection or go to the gym with Dad (and use his iPad between exercises) he will always choose going to the gym with Dad...at least I hope.
