[pGhi]

Aftermath:[/B][/COLOR]
At least I'm back in the gym

 

[PrinceVegeta]

nice arm training man!gotta feel them after all those supersets!!

 

[Glex]

Rocky: Yeah...I've gotta say it is nice to have an excuse not to do deads and squats, but I think eventually I'll miss moving the big weight (well, at least on deadlifts).

Turkish: You drunk, Turk? Thanks!

BB: I was a little disappointed with the chest work, but with the sporadic schedule I haven't been too hard on myself. And yeah, I'm trying to hit teh gunz hard

Miami: They didn't feel too bad, honestly. Just pumped as all hell.

Redtiger: Thanks for stopping in. Glad no one's scared you away...yet

pGhi: I know, right?

PrinceVegeta: Galiguuuuuuun! Oh, I mean, thanks for coming in

Here's yesterday before I forget it. It was an easy day for legs and short overall by design:

450 lbs x 10
450 lbs x 10
450 lbs x 10
450 lbs x 10

Leg Press Calves
650 lbs x 12...and then I remembered if I put enough weight on to hit my calves it usually stresses my back so I moved on...

Single Leg Calf Raises
BW + 65 lbs x 10
BW + 65 lbs x 10
BW + 65 lbs x 10

Seated Hamstring Curls (16 settings)

Abs

Chinups
I did four sets of BW x 10 interspersed throughout the workout

Aftermath:
I was running short on time and I have to go to a dance tonight, so I didn't want to annihilate my legs. I almost did some DB lunges but I knew I'd be sore from those. My triceps are sore today, though

Aftermath:
Not sure where the lat strength came from all the sudden, but I'll take the PB. I'm even relatively heavy right now at 205 lbs...I wonder what's going to happen to my pullups when I start getting into the <195 lb range and if I ever get around to ordering any creatine again

 

[knight_rider]

a few good sessions in there, nice work!

 

[Rocky]

Nice work. Good leg presses 40 reps in all, and congrats on a quality chin PB!

 

[Glex]

Alright, I'm too tired to get to the logs tonight, but I want to post this before I forget it.

Aftermath:
I still feel like my chest strength is lacking, but it's still one of my stronger body parts so I'm not too worried.

 

[Rocky]

Chest strength doesn't look like it's lacking to me! Nice work. Strong lifts throughout! No wonder you wanted to post it up!

 

[Bulkboy]

agree with rocky^^

that benchpressing is sweet doode and following it up with such inclines afterwards is awesome

i wish chest was one of my strong parts

 

[Turkish1530]

^^^^^ , strenght lookin good glex, i wouldn't stress over it

 

[PrinceVegeta]

nice session there glex!!good pressing for sure!not weak by any means!!

 

[Rageking]

awesome work, esp on those pull ups
now lets see some of those awesome deads

 

[miamiracing]

nice chest/arm blaster big boy

 

[onebigeric]

Chest and biceps are one of my favorite splits; it's cool to see you doing it as well. No worries about a 'lagging' chest; with work like that, it's likely far from such anyhow.

Although your new PB in pullups just made me feel like a little girl

 

[Glex]

And after nearly two weeks off...we're back!

As can be expected, I'm fat and out of shape from Thanksgiving. I had a lot of family stuff to do, which meant a lot of eating and not a lot of working out. I did have to move a couple of beds halfway across the universe, but that hardly counts.

Rocky: I wanted to post it up because the more I do the guiltier I'll feel when I quit

BB: Well, you've got your back working for you and I really don't

Turkish: Thanks for the love, brother. How's school?

Vegeta: Thanks man, I try.

Ragekage: Problem with deads is I'm not supposed to :crymeariver: Herniated disc and all that.

Miami: Thanks lovey

BigE: I'm toting slightly less weight than you on the pullups, big guy

Alright, here's the skinny. I just kinda did a full body thing to ease me back into it. Tomorrow will be some cardio and then I'll get back on a split on Wednesday (hopefully).

Aftermath:
Finished the lifting portion in just about an hour. Some things were easy, some were hard...but everything was about what I expected for the time off. I didn't go heavy on legs as you can plainly see, because I was going to do some stationary bike at the end. My knee felt kind of funny, though, so I just packed it up. Hopefully it's better tomorrow.

 

[Rageking]

not bad at all
'not supposed to' doesnt mean you cant
suck it up! dont worry about paralyzing yourself, its fine just get it in

 

[miamiracing]

Scheisse he's back

nice workout, smashed a good arm blaster superset.. always a good thing

miami

 

[onebigeric]

The Mecca needs that Vitamin G; excellent to see you back

Good call on the full body approach on return; that arm superset looked horrendous. Death by military press sounds groovy, if a bit terminal

 

[Rocky]

Fine choice to ease back in with a most respectable FB workout. And it wasn't anywhere near as shabby as one would think with the lay off - good groundwork to zoom back up to your usual standard!

 

[Dstan]

wow pretty intense workouts especially the full body. Your endurance is definately ur strong points.
