THoughts on today, well I had the kind of pump where I couldnt blow my nose again. That is all good. On the bad side of things I was put in the "Friend zone" by a girl I dated. Doing good in school though.

 

[Samoan-Z]

OMG the friend zone... that blows.. solid looking workout though man... can I get some stats
like age, sex and location?

JK, age, height etc..

Edit: I just saw the smith machine inclince press... what kind of plates.. 45, 35 cause im curious to that weight of 6 plates lol.

 

[Skeptic]

big numbers man!

is your name kurt? my names kurt, nice to meet you kurt.

 

[KurtyJ99]

plates are 45 so 6 plates are only 315, nothing special. It's kind of a big contraption on this smith machine so it is prolly a little more but who cares.

Age is 25 weight is 225 atm. I've always had a little retard farm boy strength so that helps.

I'm tall at 5'11 bro. So I guess I'm a bit over average are there abouts, weights are going up way faster then my body weight this year though.

 

[KurtyJ99]

big numbers man!

is your name kurt? my names kurt, nice to meet you kurt.

Ty sir, but when I'm pushing 450 on there then I can say that !! Till then I'm a pussy lol.

Yes that is my Name don't were it out.:methman:

 

[Samoan-Z]

yea 315 is fairly light, ok iat first i was thinking 6 plates on each side....

ok gothca bud welcome, and keep this log updated. I'll be looking forward to future workouts.

 

[DriDDeRz]

And that's all I did for that workout. Yea so I'm not chasing the same girl I went on with a date a week ago, I'm chasing a different one. I may actually pass my biomechanics class.

As for actualy weight lifting I need to hit 500 lb squat before I can diet at least. So I got my log and my goals and I'm getting closer every week. For those that don't know I've broken every number in my log for the last 5 weeks, this is getting fun.

Are you training with a set program? If so could you post it?

Also I'm not seeing deadlifts anywhere, tut-tut.

Also I'm not seeing deadlifts anywhere, tut-tut.

I use Dorians split and Bob chics rules. Basically I always aim for 8 to 12 reps but if I can get more I do so. I always beat reps or numbers every week.

I know I don't have deads in there, I hate doing them because It greatly hinders my squats. Last I used deads I did 445 x 4 right...well the very same week I went to do squats and got such a bad pump in the back that I could barely move. Plus my back is easily my best bodypart where as my legs need work. Thats my reasoning as of the moment.

 

[El Freako]

You could maybe alternate them then, say 2 weeks you do squats then on the 3rd you do deads. Or alternate heavy deads/light squats on week then heavy squats/light deads the next. You're still getting a lot of leg drive and posterior chain work in deads plus they are the bomb for full-back development.

Today went great, added more reps to everything and 10 pounds to close grip with the same amount of reps. Still going up=0 I'll hit 6 plates for 8 before this shit is over.

I'm not 2 worried about traps, I plenty of that. Doing this combo together is so painful that words can't even describe it, It pumps up your shoulders like with a billion psi, it's nuts. Can't wait for thanksgiving, still need some pussy though for the feast =(

I tried really hard to squeeze today. I can hammer curl 85's with bad form but I don't want to make it habit so I don't do that 2 much. Otherwise all reps are up again. Where will it stop? Who knows

 

[curtisymoo]

you could also do front squats instead of back squats

i think you could do them in the same week, it doesnt hit your core as hard as back squats and its demolishes your quads to the bone.. try it
