Yesterday's workout was solid and your deadlifts and rows are improving really fast...not fast enough that I'm overly worried, but maybe fast enough to make me slightly nervous


Ben, training back actually took longer than we thought so we sort of rushed through shoulders. We'll throw in some upright rows for you next week

:werdrun_2: Lookin foward to it

 

[Rocky]

Looking damn solid man. Taking a few days off and coming back and getting a PB in deads is damn good stuff. Excellent work. And training with Line can only be a benefit.

 

[CJU]

congrats on the dead pb! 315 is aloooot of weight bro, most people cant even hold that in their hands, much less deadlift it! huge military presses too. awesome stuff.

 

[FOOTBALL FAN]

some good pbs there mate we do the beep test in England so it must be an Aussie and UK thing

 

[Clint]

Glex....


good shit in here buddy, bb rows and deads are standing out mostly, and those militaries are awesome..great job buddy

I was in the gym for way too long, but it was really crowded, and I meant what I said about doing biceps.

Aftermath:
It was too long, but I'm glad I got everything in that I wanted. Chest and bis are definitely feeling it.
How does one note which 'side' of the cable machine you're using? One side has a mechanical advantage (two pulleys) and the other is just one pulley; obviously I'm not doing twice as much from rope extensions to underhand extensions...maybe you multiply by two or divide by two to get to the right convention?

 

[Line]

Good session with very nice weight on the presses. Kinda scary you picked the same two chest exercises as me even though we trained seperately today


You better believe I won't let you get away with doing cable-only work for triceps next time though...or overhead cable curls

 

[Maxmonzter]

nice looking log bro keep up the good hard work

 

[Glex]

Just be lucky I didn't do any flys. I thought about doing those too to spite you even more especially.

Thanks for the post, Max!

 

[PUMBA]

Not suprised your chest and bi's felt it bro, good solid lifting. I don't mind hitting the cables every now and then they are good for mind blowing pumps.

 

[BigBen]

Solid session bro, lots of volume, but im with line on the all cable work tricep session, Cables give u pump barbell make u grow ROAR!

Great work though man, liek i said volume is up their, and your 100lb DB presses are great too bro!

Godbless
Beno

 

[Glex]

Pumba: Thanks for checking in; the pump was good

BigBen: I actually never had the explained to me...I just thought Line wanted to kill me with skull crushers. I also notice you guys doing a lot of close grip bench; I think I'm going to make Line do those next time :31_whip:
As for the 100s, I want 6 next time!

150 lbs x 10
165 lbs x 10...PB
180 lbs x 7...PB
135 lbs x 15

95 lbs x 15

Standing Calf Raises
175 lbs x 12
215 lbs x 10
255 lbs x 10
295 lbs x 10...oh yeah, we'll be going heavier next time

Aftermath:
I felt insanely good today. I put up the 85s for shoulder press which was awesome I felt good on the DB Rows too, although I'm a little concerned about my form because I'm not positive I should be putting up the 120s for 10. I'll keep working on that.
Beno, I do enjoy upright rows, but I have to be careful with my wrist. I'm glad I had my wraps on because it probably would've hurt otherwise. To avoid that I used to do them with DBs and was just careful about not letting them twist the wrong way. That and/or lighter weight with a bar.
That's it for now, peace all, glex out :inouteek:

 

[Line]

You had a great workout today and your strength is progressing really quickly. Now that you're done with the PFT's it's time to add some bulk. Have a great weekend bro.

 

[CJU]

[FOOTBALL FAN]

[Glex]

Glex is back after a long haitus...blah...Line and I got out of it around the same time, hopefully we'll be hitting it up more.

Not bad for a first day back, I guess. At least I'm getting back before I lost all of my strength I'm probably going to start using creatine soon, so that should help too. It'll be my first time, so I'm looking forward to it. That's it for now...Glex out (hopefully not for two weeks again!) :inouteek:

 

[Clint]

glad to have your log back Glex.

Solid chest numbers right there, and nice to see somebody doing them seated dips...gotta love that machine.

Hell of a session for your first one back in a while, keep hittin it hard man I'll be checking your log to make sure
