Glex: I've Got Runners Trot

[Bulkboy]

solid session glex, to bad about ur shoulder thingy, maybe u should just take a couple of days completely off from all activity cuz it sounds like u have alot going on atm. let it heal up and then go back to heavy presses, cuz we all know thats what builds chest

 

[Glex]

Tweak: Sorry, sweetie pie.

Bulkboy: I already had a few days off...I usually just work through it and it turns out ok.

Turns out my gym was closed at 5, so I didn't put in a workout. I was feeling a little sick anyway and I had to work graveyard again, so I just came home and played Civ III. I'm going to work in about a half hour, but I should get a session in tomorrow.

o well i guess it happens.........i was pretty disguested on Saturday when i tried to come out to Monroeville to train w/ shutupnsquat and i didn't know that they were only gonna have 1 lane open on 376 and the squirrel hill tunnels were closed

u play civ III??!! thats awesome dude my all time favourite game

maya pwns, gotta love agricultural

 

[Glex]

Turkish: Yeah, the tunnels are crazy right now. Traffic was backed up the other day inbound for apparently no reason Maybe there was a crash that had already been cleaned up by the time Sara and I drove by the other way.

Bulkboy: Lol, yeah, Civ III is great, but too addictive! Do you still play online?

Alright, finally made it back to the gym. Here's the skinny:

[Rageking]

nice session even with injury.
those squats and sldl are real impressive, nice work on those

 

[Turkish1530]

defiantly solid work brother.....hows that running coming along???

 

[Dstan]

pretty good workout man great to see the cardio man hitting those weights too.

 

[Storm]

Hi Glex, nice session. Those SLDLs are huge man, that exercise scares me so i never go that heavy, props to you.

BTW i think i had that same shoulder pain your feeling when doing pullups, i had it doing behind neck pull downs and it lasted months (i didn't take care of it, silly me). It's gone now...and i don't do pulldowns anymore lol.
Give it time to heal and then focus on your form for those "risky" exercises.

 

[Clint]

you know how I know your gay?

you have runners trot while doing SLDLs


nicely done all around. Squat is nothing to be ashamed off, pullups are descent, better off playing it safe with that arm nuissance however

nice calve work, how much have they shrunk this summer


do you even talk to Joey anymore

 

[Glex]

Ragekage: Thanks man

Turkish: It's not Graveyard shifts have screwed me up. I plan on going tomorrow, though

Dstan: Like I told Turkish, I hope the cardio starts up again

Storm: Thanks They really did a number on my hamstrings, so I think I'm doing them with better form now, even though the weight's not anywhere near what I used to do on them.

Tweak: How do you know so much about my runner's trot? Thanks, I forgot to mention that there was a minute between each 10 x 3 set. My calves really haven't shrunk that much; I haven't been running enough. Joey and I haven't really talked this summer, we both have odd work schedules

I should get that running in tomorrow, as well as the modified push day. Hopefully my shoulder can handle some flat DB presses or BB press.

 

[Clint]

Aftermath:
My arm's probably at like 95% right now. I was holding back a little on some of the exercises (e.g. side laterals, preacher curls), and I still feel like I put in a good workout. I kept asking myself if I was doing too much, but it was going really well and I feel fine now We'll see what comes tomorrow, but as usual, that stupid pain seems to have gone as quickly as it came

Also, the phone thing Sara bought me that I mentioned in the general discussion area worked great and I got to listen to some Rush during my workout

No cardio again today...I was running late and my legs are still really sore, but tomorrow I'll do something since I'm not lifting.

 

[Clint]

nice flat presses there.... Emerson

nice shoulder presses, even the attempt with the 65s

I like those close grips in particular as well

nicely done on them biceps of yours

listening to Rush while working out? I'm surprised you made it through the workout without shoving your dick in your ass

well done Emerson

 

[Rageking]

nice session, flat press is looking good
same with those preachers

 

[Bulkboy]

wow huge flat dumbell presses there man, very impressive...
overall a very intense and solid session, good numbers all over really

as to civ 3, no i dont play much online, i havent played much lately, i just start up a single player game from time to time. definetely my favourite game of all time, i never seem to go really tired of it, and offcourse its the "just one more round mentality"

 

[Rocky]

Great session - especially for holding back a little - didn't seem to compromise your huge lifts at all. Great benching and curls!

 

[Glex]

Tweak: I never know if I'm going to be able to shoulder press 85 or 55 I did shove my dick in my ass...twice...but that had nothing to do with Rush

Ragekage: Thanks

Bulkboy: Thanks...the DB press isn't where it used to be I'm just happy I got the 100s up for reps after all my arm troubles

Rocky: Thanks, boy wonder!

So, I just woke up from graveyard and it was pouring outside It's backed off now, and if it stays that way I might get a short run in before I take my girl to the movies and work. It's like someone is trying to keep me from doing cardio...curses!

 

[Glex]

I did get out for a short run. 25 minutes, medium pace. Legs are still sore, but a little looser now. Off to work

 

[onebigeric]

Sweet crap, Glex; have you and Tweak started a volume war in the logs here?

If so, I'm running.....wait a sec....yeah, that'll be the day...

Amazing work doesn't nearly cover it Excellent work on those flat presses; those shrugs looked nasty as well.

I hope the graves aren't beating you down too much
