The Creator's tales of pain

[knight_rider]

good stuff creator! i like how you explain the exercises at the end! otherwise i would have been saying 'how do those smith benches with the stop go'.......im going to use the 'stop' when i do hammer chest press, mainly because its got a shit range of motion as it is, so trying to stop before the machine is more trouble than its worth!

keep up the good work, do you do the close grip pulldown, overhand?

 

[The Creator]

Prince: Thanks bro!
Prize: I really appreciate the compliments and support!
Mike: Thanks my friend! I really like supersetting. Besides the obvious crazy pump, i just really feel like I am in the zone when I rest less and just jump from exercise to exercise. I actually find I move more weight!
Knight: Thanks for the compliments! I use that v-bar for my close grip lat pull downs and so I actually grab it from the side but I guess you could say it is overhand. I always do my pull-ups overhand though. I think they are more commonly refered to as chins.

Great sessions man. Legs looked superb - bet those high rep lunges blew those legs up.
Upper body session is beastly. great power.

 

[PrizeFighteR]

Those BB rows are fucking awesome. Those lunges ain't exactly "light"

 

[The Creator]

Rocky: Thanks brother! The lunges sure do get the blood flowing!
Prize: Appreciate it! I love me some heavy ass rows!

Looking great man.. Are you going to post more pics at the new weight? Looking strong in your spilt today..

I just switched to UP and LB split like yourself.. The whole once a week wasn't working for me. I like the idea of having different rep ranges and weight.. Best of luck

 

[PrizeFighteR]

Damn good work Creator! Get those pics up

it took me a week or so to get used to but I love it.

looking good Creator, glad the posing went well, i cant really get upto much posing in my gym, its the wrong scene for such acts of self-appreaciation lol!

 

[ironheart]

great session m8. keep ut the good work

 

[The Creator]

Jockster: Thanks a lot man! Yeah I am going to try to get some pics taken friday after a heavy upper day if I can drag a training partner to the gym with me.

Prize: Thanks brother! I will get them taken and up asap!

Knight: Yeah I feel ya on the posing. My gym really isnt the place for it either but I've been working out there for a while now and I work there so pretty much everybody knows that I am a bodybuilder and bodybuilders do some weird ass shit like get in their underwear and flex in front of a mirror!

Iron: Appreciate the compliment bro!

Well nothing too special today for light legs. A lot of burn but thats about it.

Unilateral leg press: 4 plates x25, 5 plates x20, 6 plates x15
Smith lunges: 135x25, 155x18, 155x15
Stiff leg deads: 185x12, 185x12, 185x12 (Very very slow!)
Leg extensions: 115x20, 115x20, 115x20 (Again, extremely slow and controlled. Waned to scream because of the burn :crymeariver
Calf raises on smith: 205x20, 205x20, 205x18, 205x15, 205x15
Decline sit ups: x20, x20, x20 (Extreme focus on eccentric movement)

Like I said before, I am very pleased with the way my legs are coming along. I mentioned in my intro to my log that my main goal was to improve leg size this year and I think I have been doing just that while maintaining decent seperation and detail!
Tomorrow is heavy upper and I have plans to take some pumped up pics afterwards so make sure you check back tomorrow to see The Creator like you have never seen him before!

 

[PrizeFighteR]
