thanks bro,

reason why i split my chest routine into two workouts is because i believe you can't really hit the whole chest in one workout, and for being my upper chest is a weakpoint, i'd like to split it and give it a real knocking,
same reason i split my back routine up back thickness 1 day and width the next, but since i split them up, i only do 6 for pressing movements for lower and 6 for upper, and doing 9 sets for back thickness and 9 for width with 3 exercises, 3 sets on each one.
thats just my reason and ive noticing it has worked for my back width and thickness area with the slight improvements from after march till before i started dieting for october.

i dont like to cramp heaps of exercises into 1 workout.

here is what my current workout routine looks like

Monday: Quads & Calves
Tuesday: Lower chest & Biceps
Wednesday:Back thickness & Traps
Thursday: day off
Friday: Upper chest & Triceps
Saturday: Back width & Shoulders with Hamstrings
Sunday: Day off

Big muscle groups: 6 sets
Smaller muscle groups:4 - 6 sets
rep range 6 - 8 reps

Upper chest & Triceps

Workout Training Session: Upper chest & Triceps

Side Notes: Coming off a poor workout on wednesday, being stressed out and feeling lost, i knew i had to make an improvement and really get myself going and back into the grove of an awesome workout.

I got up extra early, roughly 6:45am and finished eating by 7:10am, making sure i wasn't going to rush myself and making sure im on time at the gym to be in cruise control. walking into the gym and ready to rock and roll, No one else was in the weights area, bonus .


Exercise; Smith machine, Incline barbell
Warm ups;
bar x 15
bar x 25
bar x 10
Comments: making sure my chest is nice and warm and blood starting to flow through it before i start going into my working sets.


Exercise; Smith machine, Incline barbell
Working sets:
(132lb)60kg x 6
(132lb)60kg x 5
(121lb)55kg x 7
(121lb)55kg x 6
(121lb)55kg x 5
(110lb)50kg x 7
Comments: Jumping into the first set, ready to rock and roll and smash upper chest, reaching the 4th rep, a slight thinking " feels abit heavier then normal" but i kept pushing.
as sets moved along i had to slightly decrease the weights to insure i still kept the 6 - 8 rep range but failing on 2 sets stuck at the 5th rep didnt worry me but gave me slightly more energy to keep pushing on my next set, reaching my 3rd set, im noticing some slight rough movements in my joints around the shoulder area,
while between sets i done afew streches to try and warm up the joints with that helping abit.



Exercise: Incline dumbell flies
working sets;
60lb x 6
50lb x 8
50lb x 8
50lb x 7
Comments: so far so good with a nice slight to medium upper chest pump, still some slight joint soreness still which sorta annoyed me but i kept going ,



Body part: Triceps
Comments: i didnt really worry about warming up, due to knowing they were ready to go from after doing upper chest.

Exercise: Skull crushes at a 45 degree angel pushing away from my head.
Working sets:
25kg + Bar weight (??) x 8
25kg + bar weight (??) x 6
Comment: BAM!!! pumped and hard as a rock already , not a bad way to start off with triceps and was fairly happy


Exercise: 2-hands dumbell sitting extensions
Working sets:
85lb x 5 - failed right at the 5th rep, its a bitch and a half to get the weight up by yourself
75lb x 7 - thats better and really pushing the weight up, locking in the elbows to really isolat the triceps


Exercise: dumbell kickbacks
working sets;
25lb x 8 & 8
25lb x 8 & 8
comments: locking the arm straight and elbow straight and lifting the weight without a swing with a steady 2 second lock out at the top to get some blood rushing into them, i really enjoy doing kickbacks,
they are a great exercise to really isolat the triceps.



Overall workout Comments:
Energy: 7.5
motivation: 8
pump: 7.5

pretty solid workout for upper chest and triceps, with good motivation going threw my body and mind with waiting for my package of goodies i recently orderd last night to come within the next 10 days so thats keeping me happy. knowing i can easly get depressed quickly, strangely i just dont know why :wutyousay:

[Big_Guns_Lance]

Nice workout D. Nice order of exercises. Try to stay motivated as much as you can bro. Thats the key to having terriffic workouts.

 

[DriDDeRz]

Your correct on that tony, my motivation should be screaming and skyrocketing up, but 8/10 isnt to bad ,
thanks for stopping by and kicking me in the arse to get back into gear

i know how to motivate you, when i start posting in my training and meal log , and when i start postong pictures lol

Mr Frank, yeah actually thats true.in somewhat way that did motivate me and when i was dieting and you were popping 10 meals a day, i said to myself HEY! im going to do that in my offseason

nice work on the kick back bro the upper chest work out also looks similer to min you must have had a massive pump...

Thanks bro , im going to do 30 - 35lb on kickbacks next time,
when people hear or say the word "tricep kickbacks" they think that its a weak exercise but believe its a strong exercise to really isolat the triceps and so far it has worked for me during contest prep and prior to dieting for october.
Massive pump in the triceps with a semi pump in the chest area but overal was n awesome workout ,
speaking about Similer to yours, i sent you an email last nigh in regards to a little chat about changing some of your workout routine, just alittle improvement like i did with mine

session looks good Dridd, just keep up your motivation




wobble ftw :greddy:

Aslong as my motivation stays up and not get depressed easly then its all good

wobble wobble thanks bro

looks pretty good driddi

thanks bro , slowly getting there with some slight improvements and adjustments throughout diet and workout routine

hey bin lookin up on this log you take in some crazy food amounts keep that up your gona be huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge your trainin looks good aswel dude do u always do incline on smith ?

Hi lorri, thanks for stopping by
only part of one way to grow is by eating like crazy while listening to your body to know how much it can intake without going over the top, i reckon i could boost it up to 4,750 calories min intake, not sure what the max is, ill be tying it out in the next few weeks on how far i can really push the limit of my calorie intake without pushing the bodyfat % to high or to quickly.

Only reason why i do smith incline is because the free weight barbell incline machine we have kinda sucks, but i was thinking about giving it ago next time i do incline to see how it is, it doesnt seem to bad but the seat is like touch the ground so the bench is like really low but on a incline level,
with you mentioning that, ill give it ago on free weight barbell incline and let you know how it goes

Session looks solid man...im sure ur pump was great!

Dont get depressed....u still have those wobbles to keep u happy

Thanks bro, yeah pump was roughly a 7.5 / 10 so wasn't to bad but still was happy regardless
i try not to get depressed but it happens once in awhile, freaken annoying tho

the wobbles keep me happy but when the wobbles get out of control i get a rash where my quads rub together

Nice workout D. Nice order of exercises. Try to stay motivated as much as you can bro. Thats the key to having terriffic workouts.

Thanks bro, i spend alot of time going through details with my workout routine in order to make sure i get the best out of every exercise in the correct order but i still need to re-adjust some of my routine, example back width and thickness with minusing some total sets on them , but anyways
thanks heaps as bro for stopping by



in regards to all that have posted ill do the return and spy on your training logs and leave sexy comments

Best Lat Workout in 2 YEARS!!!!!!!!!!

Side Note: last week, i didnt have the best back widthworkout with added details regarding why, so knowing how it went last week i had to make some sort of improvement with a new game plan attack.



Exercise: Rack pullups
warm ups;
Bodyweight x 12
bodyweight x 12
bodyweight x 10
bodyweight x 10
Comments: Sorry for useing the lords name in vain, but..... JESUSCHRIST!!!!!!! Lats were pumped!!! and truthly? this is the 2nd lat width pump i have had in 2 years, i was happy and in shock and knowing i have found my back width exercise i will be useing everytime now!.

Bodyweight + 10kg(22lb) x 10
Bodyweight + 20kg(25lb) x 6
Bodyweight + 15kg(33lb) x 8
Bodyweight + 15kg(33lb) x 9
Comments: Sweet Jesus and HOLY MOLY!!!!!!!!!!! Lats pumped and filling up quickly i love this exercise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Exercise: Semi Wide Lat pulldown to front
Working sets;
130lb x 8
130lb x 6
125lb x 7
120lb x 7
Comments: few days ago i watched a charles glass training video and he gave out afew tips with lat pulldown, keeping back straight, elbows pointing forward as bringin the bar down and holding with a crunch with the back and useing the lats to bring the weight down of course, so i thought to myself.... you know what? im going give it ago, so i lowered the weight abit and really did my best by isolatin and useing only my lats knowing i had to start back at the basic's and teach and learn tips to try and make my lats grow i was so freaken happy i have finally point the finger on the right exercises/form/grip/weight as i mentioned above to TARGET my lats only, and only my lats no other body part felt pumped but my lats EXTREMELY HAPPY!!!! and i can't wait till im able to train back width again next week.



.... im still in shock of how great of a workout for back width i had.... thats all that was going through my mind during my time at the gym, LATS!!!! PUMPED!!!!!!!!!!!!! LATS!!!!!! PUMPED!!!!!!!!!!!! im in love!!!



Body Part:Shoulders


Exercise: Dumbell shoulder press
Working sets;
60lb x 7
60lb x 7
Comments: truthly its a bitch to get the dumbells up by yourself....but it was still good... weight might not seem much but still was heavy in somewhat way but i can only improve on the weight as time goes on.


Exercise: Side dumbells lateral raises
Working sets;
30lb x 6
25lb x 8
comments: i love this exercise, shoulders looked ripped apart as the weight went up in the air and veins popping LEFT RIGHT AND CENTRE..now your prolly wondering...."Centre" what the hell does he mean by that? how about the vein running down my forehead


Exercise: Front dumbell raises
working sets;
35lb x 6
35lb x 8
Comments: another exercise i enjoy doing and love watching my traps and shoulders stick out like a huge dog crap outta nowhere


Extra comments: Okay..... was thinking to myself.... should i do rear delts? and decided not to do them with shoulders and include them into my back thickness and traps day to really target them good but only doing 2 sets of rear delts and only 3 sets of trap sets
everything is coming along really good with my workout routine re-adjusting new sets/reps/exercises to get the best out of my workout to limit overtraining


Body part: Hamstrings
side note: while during my precontest dieting i included stiff leg deadlifts to isolat my hamstrings and notice some good solid gains for a good hammy hang and i thought i would now include this exercise of dumbell/barbell stiff legg deadlifts into my offseason training.

Working sets;
120lb(54kg) x 10
130lb x 8
130lb x 8
130lb(58kg) x 7
Comments: hammys are feeling good with a slight slight lower back pump, but can't be helped with doing this exercise movement as it involes my lowerback aswel... which is another weakpoint of mine.

Total Lat width, Shoulders and hamstring Score:
Pump: 9/10
Energy: 9/10
overal workout score: 9.5/10

Extra extra comments for self note for next week for same workout.

Weights to try;
rack chinups
BW + 20kg for 4 sets only
lat pulldown to front - 130lb min
get there alittle bit ealier... yes yet again i was slightly running late, bloody Musclemecca.com and posting with replys .

So now knowing i have found the right exercises and form movement for my lats im happy and which only leaves me with 1 body part to fix up which is back thickness which is rooughly 70% complete with the right exercises for my body.


Which everyones comments lately has really given me great motivation for todays workout and the prior and future workouts to come. i thank you all so much if i could kiss you all i would *not really*
