True enough...I was going for form though, and it really killed my triceps. I could barely hold myself up to start the BW dips. I'll slap on a couple more pounds next time for ya :hsughr:

FF: Yeah, normally I do flat bench first so I'm not too worried :xyxthumbs:

Tweak: My inclines aren't nearly as far behind your inclines as your flats are behind my flats :spy: No cocaine for you :xmasslap:

Yeah, I agree the tris weren't spectacular this last workout. I did things a little backwards; should've done the dips first. But I did get a pretty solid burn from keeping my elbows close on the extensions, which is what I was going for. They were definitely worn out.

Running and abs today. I did the same 3-mile run that took me '45 minutes' today only backwards. That makes it so the middle mile is a hill instead of the last half mile. I must have misread the clock when I left my house last time, 'cause I got a watch and it took just under 27 minutes to do it today (which still isn't fast by my standards, but pornographically better than 45 minutes). Time for my meal...cheeseburger topped with a fried egg on wheat...makes me so happy...

Didn't get to do any running today, although I would've liked to because there's a pleasant rain here...oh well. My workout was a pretty sweaty one, so I won't worry about it.

I lost a strap before I got to the gym, though. It was at home on the floor where it fell out of my bag when I got home, :no:, so my numbers suffered a little.

Fascia Stretching, Abs

Aftermath:

I'm not unhappy, but it would've been better with straps. Hit my traps pretty good; they're starting to show again and I'm happy about that. My arm is now to the point where there's nothing wrong, but I can tell that something wasn't right before, if that makes sense. Time to get showered and head to the city to see my girlfriend, so I'll be out of commission tonight :hsughr:

So whats your favourite cardio machine? I mean what's her name?
:49: Her name's Sara; we've been dating for a few years. I'll have to show her your post later, she'll love it.

Banshee: Thanks for stopping by and the comment, I appreciate it! :wave:

Delgado: It hasn't done too much...it's just that since I was taking it easy I couldn't push myself on a lot of movements, shoulder press especially, so I lost a little strength. It should come back with time, unless the diet and running start taking their toll :xmasohnoes:

Delgado: I did and nice :2:

Long one today...still congestion at the gym. I just realized I'm going to hit renewed traffic because I'm going up to school in a week, and everyone will be in the gym for the first 2 weeks. Grrr...

1-8-07
4:10-5:00 Cardio
5:10-6:20 Lifting

Cardio

Jumped around and excessive amount, lol. I did a short warmup on the track, elliptical for 10 mins, bike for 10, stairmaster for 10, treadmill for 10, and then a cooldown on the track. On average, it was medium intensity and took about 45 minutes. Tomorrow my legs get a break and then the next day will be some running.

Hack Squats
180 lbs + sled x 10
180 lbs + sled x 10

Fascia stretching for quads

Seated Leg Curls
110 lbs x 12

Fascia stretching for hamstrings, groin

Leg Press Calves

450 lbs x 10
500 lbs x 8
300 lbs x 25

Fascia stretching for calves
Abs
A few quick forearm rollers, forearm curls, and fascia stretching for forearms

Aftermath:
Was a little longer than I was hoping but it was alright. No free squats today; wanted a break for a few reasons. Next legs day will be purely lifting so my legs will be fresh for squatting.

With all those crowds you realised that grabbing a squat rack was going to be easier next week didn't you!

Do you do any hip dominant hamstring work (SLDL, GM, RDL)?

Well, there's only one squat rack so you're right, the crowd didn't help! I also haven't done a legs day for a while without squats, and my legs were pretty beat from the cardio.

I do SLDL every once in a while, trying to do them more often and get better at them. Never attempted a good morning, although I should give them a shot. I had never heard of RDL, and when I looked them up I figured out what was wrong with my SLDL. I think I'm doing some kind of hybrid of the two, so now I can sort that out. I need to bend my knees more on SLDL, and if I try out the RDL I'll need to feel out the proper range of motion.

^^ I don't do the traditional SLDL. I do a straight back SLDL and maintain a bend in the knees. So like you its a hybrid.

Thank ya, FF. I was surprised they weren't more tired today. I was thinking of doing some cardio, but my session ran really long so I said screw it.

1-9-07
2:45-4:35

BB Flat Bench

135 lbs x 15
185 lbs x 10
225 lbs x 8 + 1 forced
225 lbs x 6
185 lbs x 10
185 lbs x 8

Incline BB Press
155 lbs x 10
185 lbs x 6
165 lbs x 8

Decline BB Press
185 lbs x 8
185 lbs x 8
Wasn't really feeling these, so I went on to:

DB Pullovers
First time doing these, just wanted to try 'em out since the decline BB was a bust

45 lbs x 12
60 lbs x 10
80 lbs x 8

Fascia stretching for chest

Hammer Bar Close Grip Press
125 lbs x 12
165 lbs x 3
This didn't work out like I planned either, so I switched to EZ bar

EZ Bar Close Grip Press
145 lbs x 8
145 lbs x 8

Cable Rope Push Downs
55 lbs x 12
55 lbs x 10
55 lbs x 10

Fascia stretching for tris

Reclining DB Curls
30 lbs x 12
35 lbs x 10
35 lbs x 8
30 lbs x 8

Preacher Curls
75 lbs x 10
95 lbs x 4...hurt my forearms
75 lbs x 11

Concentration Curls
Nice and slow

20 lbs x 10
20 lbs x 10

Fascia stretching for bis
Abs


Aftermath:
This workout was goofy as hell. I switched a lot of things because I wasn't happy with them, so it took up a lot of time. I also definitely did too much, but oh well. I'm angry with my flat bench, but I've got to give my arm time to get back to normal. It doesn't hurt at all any more, but it still needs time to recover.
