Back into my Workout Routine

I'm feeling like I'm back in the training "groove" again.  I started up again last week (after a two week layoff), picking up where I left off in the periodization cycle. 

Next week will be week five of the cycle, meaning I'll drop down to five reps.  Fine with me--I really never do well with higher reps.  I assume that means I have more fast-twitch muscle fibers in terms of my muscle composition (maybe I'll explain that some other time). 

Heat is the only problem I'm having this week.  The last few days have been scorching here in Manila--training in a gym with no air conditioning is no joke.  One good thing about this routine is you finish your two most important sets very early in your training session.  I get those two sets in (after a warm-up) then do as much as I can in terms of assist and isolation movements.
