Line - "We Can Rebuild Him"

[FOOTBALL FAN]

heavy weights mate where did you go on holiday might be a stupid question from the pic but oh well looking good in the pic glad to hear that you were feeling better and more motivated I suffer from depresion not bipolar but I can understand a little how hard it can be so keep your head up bro

 

[Line]

MM - Thanks man, it's awesome that guys like us can be friends and encourage each other in times of hardships from across the globe. I appreciate the compliment but just wait and see what "big" really is in a few months after I start bulking

Tweak - Thanks, brother, I was definately feeling the pump when I was got done. In fact, I went upstairs to join my family for my brother's birthday and my arms were bigger than his girlfriend's head haha.

Evo - Thank you for the kind words and sharing your own personal setiment with me; it does mean a lot. LOL at the Stallone comment though, he was lean motherfucker and all but I definately do want to be bigger than him

Rocky - Thanks Dan, definately trying to stay in as positive a mindset as possible. It's funny, regarding my physique, about my arms because they've always grown fast but these days you almost need overly big arms to compete and look balanced so I still need to put more meat on them

FF - Not a stupid question at all, man. I went to the Bahamas with my family about two weeks ago and have been in a bit of a funk ever since. Sorry to hear about your depression but in a way, it's nice to know there are people here who can empathize with me. Very encouraging words man and I'm glad you checked out the log again


PS: I trained legs and recorded my weights and whatnot, but I've gotta run out for a little bit and get some food and some sun. I'll update my leg workout when I get back. Despite being improvised and in my basement, I can assure you it was draining as hell. Later guys

I'd expect nothing less!

Post it up big fella!

Nice inclines and BB curls!!! You have very good equipment in your basement, IMHO.

LOL at the photo mate but you look fucking good, great delt-bi separation and also great tri development! COngratz!

 

[Line]

mvsf1 - Thanks man, I really don't have that great of equipment but I definately go out of my way to make the most of it. I could really use a barbell that allows me to use more than 225 and some dumbells over 20 pounds LOL. Thanks once again for the compliment on my physique, trying to really blow the tri's up this next year actually; it's one of my target spots in my next bulk


Alright, today I got to workout and to be honest at the start of the day I was filled with anxiety and I almost really didn't want to train. I was convinced I was going to put a session in however I didn't know how it'd go and felt like cheating myself by keeping it short or holding back. In the end I thought of you guys as motivation and put in a good session of quads and hams. I actually trained hams first because my lack of equipment at home makes it difficult to really pound my quads, plus, who couldn't use some extra ham work? Also, because of the lack of weight I could use, I upped the reps slightly; you'll see. Here goes...

[Paulie]

damn man, unleasing that monsterous strength of yours yet again. Glad to see a session back in here man. Your one hardcore man, as said before your looking big man, but hell from those shirtless pics from your vacation you could tell your big real easy, definetely got a great physique man.
Those reps are just insane man, the pump had to be crazy, excellent job Line.

You just said "man" 6 times, and it sounds terribly stupid with all those mans.

Anyway, great leg session Line! Those BB lunges are crazy, and thats some good stuff your doin in your basement. Keep it up!

 

[BigBen]

PICS LOOK AWESOME LINE! Biceps lookin full bro, and great detail in the midsection. Everythings proportionate to bro!

EDIT: anothe rdungeon workout i see bro! Cant wait to see u in action at a full gym bro!

Keep up the great work!
AND

 

[mvsf1]

Good workout Line, I think resting to much in your basement while training should be boring... but not on the gym... you can see some nice chicks

I believe you should add some weight to "entire stack" sets, you are relaxing a lot I believe... j/k bro, I think it's good to alternate hardcore train in the gym with "no-rest-hurry-up!" workouts.

Keep it up!

 

[Rocky]

20 rep SLDL fuck that for a laugh, and supersetting lunges and leg ex makes me shudder at the prospect. You're certainly right that you made the most of that session. Legs must have been pumped to fuck. Surprised you didn't rip your shreddies!

 

[FOOTBALL FAN]

nice supersets mate good amount of volume in a short space of time you lunges are pretty impressive, I like the way you set your log out with meals and date

 

[Spike]

great workout bro it always impresses and inspires me when someone does one hell of a workout with limited equipment,just a great workout im proud of you buddy.

and i bet you had a real good pump in those tight ripped and striated glutes of yours

 

[Robcardu]

Great session Linitin, those high reps were sick....hey can i go to your basement and train with you??

 

[Line]

Paulie - Thanks man, doing the best I can with what I have.

BB - Thanks for the big compliments on my physique, brother. Means a lot coming from a future procard holder

mvsf1 - Man, I wish I could add weights to those stacks believe me but they move really slow on the cables as is! LOL

Thanks for posting bro.

Rocky - Yeah, the pump I had in my legs yesterday was nuts, afterwards they just looked pretty big with almost no detail because they were so gorged with blood. The even better news is that despite it being a basement workout, my legs are still sore as hell today; particularly my hammies.

FF - Thanks man, and yeah, I try to keep the logs as accurate as possible so I can see what I'm responding to and how my sessions go based on time, meals, duration, etc. This will really come into play when I start my bulking.

BPP - First, I can't believe I'm acknowledging your change in name, but thanks again for the kind words. Trying to keep it as hardcore and down to Earth as possible. As for my glutes, no pump but they were sore as hell this morning

Rob - Yes, but only if we train shirtless.

Alright guys, today was supposed to be back and shoulders day but I had a slight mishap so I just finished off back and my delts will have to wait to do battle another day. I felt a tweak in my lower back after my last set of BB Rows and decided to see if it felt any better as I progressed. After finishing the back portion of my routine though I noticed it was still as tight as it was before so I stretched up and just went upstairs to ice it. I don't have too too much I can do for shoulders in my basement as is so that'll just have to wait until tomorrow now. Notheless, still got a good back for width workout in; enjoy...

[MexicanMuscle]

great session line. some great reps, and good exercises. those rows are phenomonal!

 

[Line]

great session line. some great reps, and good exercises. those rows are phenomonal!

Thanks, MM. Rows have been a focul point for me lately because I haven't been doing them as long as I should have and I certaintly didn't push myself in them as hard as I should have. I appreciate the post and I'm looking forward to when I can give you guys actual numbers on my sets instead of this "Setting 5" or "Entire Stack" bullshit




Quick Update: I'll train shoulders and traps today but my back is still a bit tight so I'll be taking it easy. Probably no pressing because I have nothing to stablize my back against.

 

[Project Evo]

Quality back session Line, those rear laterals must have burned like crazy for that rep range. Excellent work on the rows too.

I hope the twinge in the back is okay mate and not giving you too much worry. Looking forward to seeing your delts getting fried. Have a good one!

 

[Spike]

great workout line,really cool stuff most notably that insane bb rows
and i hope your back gets better buddy

 

[Q80_Musclehed]

Quality session from Joe .. awesome back workout man .. ur improving brother .. keep that work going up .. sorry for not catching ur log .. u know stalking those pros isn't easy

 

[FOOTBALL FAN]
