Chesticles Log - It's big, hairy and probably smells.

Ok just got back. Bodie's still got the aches from wednesday, espically in the legs so yall will be disappointed in the squats, but I managed to hit some more PB's

Seated Military Dumbbell Press (lbs)
70's x 10
70's x 8

I'm very impressed with my shoulder presses lately

Box Squats (lbs)
176 x 8
176 x 5 ()
127.6 x 12

Like I said, my legs where still quite sore, but done what I could.

Barbell Flat Bench Press (lbs)
154 x 8 (PB )
154 x 8
154 x 7 (last one w/ aid)

Got a PB out of it, but yeah still needs work. I have a huge amount of trouble keeping the bar straight and I have no idea why, can anyone help me out?

Chin Ups
me x 9 (PB )
me x 7
me x 6

Yeah buddy, gettin closer to the 10 reps. Gotta give props to tweak, if I didn't see the vid of him doin chins with a thumb over grip I wouldn't of tried it, and it works so much better

Bench Dips (lbs)
me + 110 x 8 (PB )
me + 110 x 10 (PB )

I used to struggle to do this with an extra 66, and destroyed 110 today. Got a pain in the middle of my chest though, I asked the trainer there and he said it isn't uncommon, hope his right lol.

Standing Alternate Dumbbell Curls (lbs)
50's x 8 (PB )
50's x 8

Not the best of form, but still gave me a good pump

Seated Calf Raises (lbs)
107.8 x 20 x 3

Nice and slow baby, works them alot better IMO. They where still a bit tender from wednesday though.

That was all she wrote, finished up in 80 mins and stretched, which does bother me a bit because I'd like to get it to an hour or less. Lol I'm kind of disappointed that I'm going away because I've had two really good sessions in a row, but oh well, I'll go even harder when I come back I might log on before I leave tomorrow morning, but if not I'll see everyone in two weeks. Until next time gents...

How wide is your grip? Check and see if one of your arms is longer than the other I'm serious about that. Also, some of us just have a much stronger limb on one side and you have to concentrate on keeping it level.

I've never seen a split like this, but I've seen people make arguments for lots of different crazy splits so I'm only going to talk about what I know, lol.

If your cardio is going to include a lot of running, I would do calves afterwards (which it looks like you are). It's not so important with maybe bicycle work or elliptical machines, but running or stairmastering is tough after lifting calves. I'm not sure if they were doomed to this anyway because I was running, but my calves got much smaller and I ran after I lifted legs

I do like the circuit training look to it, and that you have a day off between quads and your next cardio. However, if you're not taking a day off from lifting after quads/arms day, that means you're doing tris first then chest, so that might make your chest suffer.

Alcoholic apprentice At least beer has some good carbs

Great to have you back, Chesti!

Quads/arms will be on friday, so I'll have 2 days rest

And CJ, lay off the crack dude

Going in to do chest/back in about a half hour, lets see how it goes.

 

[CJU]

^wow is your fatass that lazy that CJU is too much to type, so you only type CJ?

 

[Natureboypkr]

you guys are silly

 

[Glex]

Quads/arms will be on friday, so I'll have 2 days rest

Throwing up in your mouth...man, I've been there before; that's some rough shit. Still, you did a good job maintaining your strength throughout the workout
