Line - "We Can Rebuild Him"

[Line]

Paulie - Good (and fair) questions. To be honest, most people only do 2-3 true working sets anyways, the rest is just a buildup; usually placing too much emphasis on pyramiding. I'd rather be able to press heavier weight on something like a military press than worry about volume for an isolation movement (lateral raises) because I'm not going to get as much out of it. As for shrugs, it's a combination of using heavier weight right away, deadlifting twice a week, and having genetically gifted traps. Glad you posted

Hypo - I was actually really upset at my 205 x 12. I was pretty burnt out already from doing 35 reps in my first two sets and not being used to higher rep ranges. As for your rotator cuff, I'd steer clear of the Smith Machine and focus more on DB work. I can't imagine the sheer force from a BB is worse than a Smith. Just my $.02.

Chesty - Thanks, I really had to rush through...I'll explain why at the bottom

No Simpsons quote

onebigeric - Yeah, it felt good to get in and out pretty quick and I think that's part of what made the session satisfying. I was fortunate enough to get on the equipment I wanted which helped as well. Also, you should check back a page at my last legs/back session


UPDATE: After I ran through my session last night I went back to my apartment, had two pw meals and went to the bar down the street. They were hosting a beer pong tournament and my roommate and I won the whole thing which got us T-Shirts and a $50 gift card. Just thought I'd share that tale to all those alcohol-haters out there who said drinking would never get me anywhere

I edited in a simpson's quote, but her's another for my tardiness.

Bart: "Homer!"

Homer: "No sweetie, thats what grown ups call me, call me daddy."

Bart: "Homer."

Homer: "Daddy."

Bart: "Homer."

Homer: "Daddy!"

Bart: "D-d-d-domer."

short and effective good work Line..... ur bench #s are good considering the rep range and especially considering you did a 20 rep w/u w/ 135.....

keep banging bro

well fuck me sideways and call me Chesticles.

good bench, less then usual but impressive amount of reps you threw around.

militaries are impressive considering you hit a high amount of reps on bench and exhausted your front delts quite a bit. Laterals are great, and shrugs are great too. I still hate you for having genetically gifted traps though...bitch

great work, and stay consistent

btw...slap Emerson on the ass for me next time you see him

Oh, I have. That's where my feel-like-a-ten-year-old-girl comment came from

Look forward to seeing some more insane work from ya, Line.

Update dammit I need to know where your bench is at is this tactics, no I'm not paranoid

Update dammit I just gotta know........

 

[Line]

Thought I'd give everyone an update. Basically I last week things sucked because I had two major exams and then briefly became sick before the weekend (no, not just hungover). Also, my friend from college who had moved away to Vegas a year ago was in town for the weekend so I spent most of my weekend with him and my roommates.

That was all well and good, but somehow my sleep schedule is fucked up again. I can lie down for an hour nap after getting 8 hours of sleep the night before and be out cold for 5 hours. This has happened the last two nights. Unless classes are canceled (and subsequently the gym closed), I'll have a session for you guys tomorrow. The good news is I've cleaned up my diet as of yesterday; not that I'm cutting but just eating healthier and dropping a few pounds.

I do appreciate all you guys checking the log and I'll be make sure to stay updated with yours.

 

[onebigeric]

Look forward to seeing more iron madness from you Line

 

[Paulie]

Thanx for the updates. Are you going to start cutting soon??

 

[Banshee20]

Hope your sleep schedule gets worked out soon.
