[FOOTBALL FAN]

good job on the pbs in there mate solid looking session

 

[Line]

Good idea to ditch the smith machine presses, especially if you're already feeling the effects of it.

Congrats on the PB for DB Laterals, you need to widen up dem shoulders, boy! As for triceps, shake off that frowny face for Skull Crushers since you managed a PB on your next exercise. Way to stick through it and keep pushing hard.

Moving on, congrats on the PB for Pullups (fat ass) and good job on the lying supported BB rows. I've actually done them before and they're a lot tougher than you'd expect but they feel good as hell. Also, huge shrugs! Where the fuck did they come from?!

The goggles! They do nothing!

 

[Clint]

good pullups, but they could be better

great pulldowns and supported BB Row? I need a pic, is that what Melvin Anthony does in one of his vids? ( I dont know if you've seen it or not)

great tortue you applied on that back of yours and nice traps at the end and congrats on those few PBs in this session, excellent job Graybars

 

[MaKaVeLi]

your chins are coming along very nicely there and those traps must be gettin pretty big! still plugging out them PBs I see

 

[Chesticles]

Line - thanks big man, and yes those shrugs where big, I felt like a real man grunting doing them

Tweak - Leave my pullups alone, there gettin better! lol. And can you give me a vid of that, because I haven't seen it. Thanks for the comment, Clit

Mak - Thanks for the comment man

[Chesticles]

Ok back from the gym, I have to go to a different gym for a week because my usual one is closed for maintance or some crap, and this one sucks ass and its hard to get motivated in there, plus it was like over 40 today in there, fuckin sweatshop Lol ok enough complaining, the routine I posted before is the one I done, I'll do it mon, wed and friday with a bit of cardio and abs on tues and thurs. Numbers aren't to impressive today, just a warning lol. Here we go.

[Clint]

dang Chesty, whats up with that Bench, I think even Peanut could bench that

I want to see that improve dude lol.

good to see you box squatting and your knee obviously didn't bother you which is always great news.

BB Rows are lookin good, whole session was good but as you said its gonna take some time to adapt to this type of training, it should be great for strength though, good shit Chesty baby

 

[Chesticles]

Thanks babe, yeah I figured benching 3 times a week would help my bench out somewhat, lord knows I need it

As for today, I might do a bit of light cardio and some abs, my legs are killing from squats (so is my ass ) so it won't be anything drastic.

 

[Chesticles]

ok done a bit of cardio and abs at home.

Cardio
Walk for 10 mins
Run for 5 mins
Walk for 5 mins

Abs
Super set
Crunches and leg raises - 3 x 15

Like I said, nothin drastic. Gotta get some stretching in before tomorrow to.

 

[Chesticles]

Ok I was still quite sore from monday's session, so the weights weren't very impressive on some exercises. Hopefully I'll adapt after a few weeks to this training.


Seated Military Barbell Press (lbs)
80 x 10
80 x 9

Shoulders still pretty hammered from monday

Box Squats (lbs)

Couldn't move as much weight today, again with the soreness.

Barbell Flat Bench Press (lbs)

120 x 7 (might of got 8, but no spotter so didn't risk it)
120 x 7

Weight didn't decrease on bench, so it wasn't all bad.

Chins
me x 4
me x 4
me x 4

Considering that I can only get around 3 or 4 if I do deads first on back days and I got sets of 4 after doing 3 heavy compound lifts, I was happy with myself.

Dips

me x 5

Tris were alot better today, nowhere near as sore. Even hit a PB

Standing Dumbbell Curls (lbs)

I stood on a brick so my heels weren't touching the ground at all, worked them alot better.

That was it, like I said nothin overly impressive, gotta give the body time to adjust. Done in about an hour.

 

[Chesticles]

Just finished my cardio and abs from home.

Cardio
25 min walk

Abs
Floor sit ups - 3 x 20
