I was looking for some new/different accessories to do because I'm getting bored with the same old same old. So, I found the Meadows rows. I don't have a landmine attachment for our bar, but we just placed it up against the back support of our squat rack with a dumbbell over it. This is probably the first time that the hideous red carpet has come in handy because it actually helped hold the bar in place. I'm not sure how to accurately list the weights I did because obviously, you're not lifting the entire bar. I know some people aren't bothered by crap like this, but my obsessive brain is! That's why I listed the plates that were on the bar. Make of it what you will. I liked them and I think we'll be keeping them around for a while. The pullovers were good too. I usually do them with plates, but we used the db tonight because I have a wider variety of weights and they do end up feeling a little different. Also, the Tate presses were single arm only tonight and I felt them way more than the double arm presses. I think they're a keeper as well. 

I guess it was a good night. Now it's time to eat.
