Rocky's Log - King of the Jim

[Rocky]

I will comb my beard in anticipation.
I won't need to scat on your pizza. Last time you ordered it with extra poop anyway.

 

[Rocky]

Ok todays session. Wasn't really feeling it when I got there I think it was the anticipation of Incline DB's and the expectation that I would only do the same as last time or drop off a rep and feel awful for the rest of the session. What didn't help was the music on the loudspeakers across the whole gym this were the 1st 3 songs that were plying when I walked in.

The Carpenters - Close to you
The Bee Gees - How deep is your love
Phil Collins - Another day in Paradise

What a way to psyche you up

Anyway - it went surprisingly well...for me!

DB Incline

35kg (77lb) x 10
45kg (100lb) x 5 - P.B. finally broke the barrier by a rep. Actually got a 6th rep but I got spotted so much I ain't counting it.

BB Decline

RDL

150kg (330lb) x 7 - grip went!
185kg (410lb) x 4 - P.B. - much better initial lift than last time too.

BB Bent Row
110kg (24lb) x 10
155kg (340lb) x 8
160kg (350lb) x 5 - form but sloppy.

Wide Grip Chins
x 10

72.5kg (160lb) x 8 - P.B.
75kg (165lb) x 5 - P.B.

Plate pinches

And that was it. Better than I was anticipating so pleased with it. Although again it took me a little longer than I would have liked - 85 mins.

 

[Clint]

ah yes, the only person on this board that can out dip me (although I mustered 140lbs when I weighed 200lbs so I guess I've already beaten you ) don't worry my bearded friend, I shall soon surpass you and dominate your face again

ah yes! A WEAKNESS!!! Pullups! muahahahah

Incline Dbs are excellent, 100x5 is pretty great

deadlifts and rows are both very strong

next time tell them to throw some Celine Dion on the radio to really get you pumped

 

[miamiracing]

nice bra!

BB Bent Raw is amaizing!
rest is like everytime! PRETTY GOOD for a MOFO

miami

 

[Turkish1530]

it's always nice to get it in a hard workout whenever ur not feeling it in the beginning.....impressive DB incline (100 x 5 and a new PB!) sum nice heavy rows as well....just heeeavvy weight all around nice work rocky

 

[Rocky]

Tweak - Ha ha you will not out dip me! My domination of you will continue. (Except in chins - stupid chins!)

miamiracing - Thanks buddy. The BB row was pretty power style though and I think I was a bit more upright than I'd like to be.

Turkish - Yeah was glad to get the 1st exercise ok. I think the pressure is almost off a bit when you don't feel like it cos you don't expect to do so well so when you do it fires you up!

 

[Hypocrisy86]

Good god, Rocky!
those cable rows and BB rows look intense
keep it up !!

 

[Pickle]

you row 3 plus plates? vids please

insane my english brother

 

[fallen]

more PB's Rocky that is great i got one this weekend also but i am nowhere near busting them down like you

 

[Rocky]

Hypo - Yeah the BB rows are damn hard. The cable rows are easy. There must be too many pulleys on it cos all the exercises I do on there are reasier than the weight I use on them attests to.

Pickle - I was hoping to get more vids and photo's in here but since Evo has left I ain't go anyone to do it for me!

Fallen - lol - yeah but your weights are bigger than mine to start with! Did you change the title of my log?

 

[Dstan]

yeah man great rows and good incline benching. Excellent weight and i'm glad to see u put some plate pinches in there.

 

[onebigeric]

Sweet crap Rocky, those rack deads were excellent. Your Rows were amazing as well; seems like the Carpenters do it for ya

Also, at the title of your log changing about every five minutes

 

[Clint]

nice log title








it was Robcardu this time

at least I gave you a dignified title...Scat King

 

[SerbMarko]

soon your nickname will have to be changed to Mr.PB lol great job Rocky.

 

[Robcardu]

nice log title








it was Robcardu this time

at least I gave you a dignified title...Scat King

 

[Glex]

Great to see you starting to break through some chest barriers

As everyone has been commenting, phenomenal BB rows, even if you are coming a bit upright!

Phil Collins doesn't get you pumped?

 

[Bulkboy]

oh god those barbell rows are insane another incredible sesssion rocky

 

[shade]

you are very strong great numbers good work man

 

[Rocky]

Dstan - yeah trying to get my grip strength up - every little helps!

onebigeric - Thanks bud but they aren't rack deads - they are romanian deads from the floor! Stoopid Papi and Tweak.

Tweak - Dignified?! - we'll see...

Serb - lol! Hopefully I'll keep hitting 'em then!

Papi - For shame.

Glex - Yeah it may have only been 1 more rep than last time but it's an improvement so I'll take it!

Bulkboy - Thanks man. Next time will be a PB if I get it at 165kg!

shade - Thanks buddy! I keep on trying!

Next session tomorrow.

I know whatcu mean by weights being heavier
to me its easier to balance on machines/cables
but i don't know how it is for you, since you're taller
and have longer arms etc.

today im doing raw heavy cable rows
and heavy everything. i'll tell you how it went
i suck at BB rows, no matter how much weight i use
i can't keep the balance right, wide foot position or narrow
