The Creator's tales of pain

[The Creator]

So I have been flirting around with the idea of doing the NPC Washington Ironman in October of this year. I have really been wanting to compete again and I think I might do this show. Any input is appreciated.
Here is the guy that took first in light heavies:

and here is the guy that took second:

Judging by these, I think I would more than hold my own.

Today I did a light upper session and it felt real solid.

Incline bench smith: 135x15, 135x15, 225x12, 225x12, 205x12, 205x10, 185x12
T-bar machine: 3 platesx12, 3 platesx12, 3 platesx10, 3 platesx10, 3 platesx10
Dumbell fly: 50x15, 50x12, 45x15, 45x12
Wide grip chins: bwx10, bwx10, bwx10, bwx8
EZ bar curls: 80x15, 80x15, 80x15, 80x12, 80x12
Triceps pushdown V bar: 170x15, 170x15, 170x12, 150x14, 130x15

I really like supersetting on these days because I really dont bullshit at all and I hardly do any sitting around. I really get to sweating and get in the zone with a great pump.

that pump is undeniable..
high reps, awesome weight
bet the blood flow was magnificent
keep up the poundage in the gym man... kill those weights!

 

[philosopher]

If you really wanna do it than why not. But you have to be 100% sure. otherwise you cant focuss enough.
Nice session M8, keep up the good work

 

[h0ke]

Good to hear that u are maybe competing. I saw ur "old" pics and u looked great!
Some strong pumping there buddy. Good Job.

 

[ironheart]

would be awsome to see you compete, and i'm sure you'll do well if you decide to go for it.

Well went in today for my light leg day and found out that the gym was closing early for employee apprecation night (hey thats me!) so I only had about a half hour to bust out a workout. Nothing worth posting really. Just did some giant sets and beat it up as best I could! Heavy upper tomorrow!

 

[Mikew]

Good luck if you do decide to compete. From what I´ve seen so far it seems you have a good chance.

 

[miamiracing]

[The Creator]

Mike: Appreciate the support my friend!
Miami: Oh I gots it poppin today bro!
Hi 5: Thanks man!
Anabolclitty: You better hope you never have to stand on stage next to me son! I will bring the pain to all the weaklings who dare to be compared to such a statuesque physique that I would present on the day of judgement. I expect you to be there to gloss my ass for the ironman as I was there to gloss yours last weekend!

Alright gang, today was heavy upper and I did things a little different. Instead of supersetting my whole workout, I only supersetted arms and took time for the big bodyparts to do them seperately. I allowed no more than 90 seconds rest inbetween sets.

Bench Press: 135x10, 185x10, 225x9, 245x7, 275x3, 275x3, 245x6
Wide grip chins: bw+25x7, bw+25x7, bw+15x7, bw+15x7, bwx+15x5
Standing barbell press: 145x7 145x6, 145x5, 145x5
Bent over rows: 275x10, 315x8, 315x8, 315x7
Close grip bench press: 205x8, 205x7, 205x7, 205x6, 185x7
EZ bar curl close grip: 120x8, 120x8, 120x6, 120x6, 120x5

Really felt good today. Didnt really notice anymore energy from not supersetting except for a little extra gas at the end for arms. The whole session took about 60 mins.

 

[PrinceVegeta]

awesome strength all around and great choice of excerises!! great stuff the creation!

 

[Rocky]

Session looked strong. Good choice on the supersetting the smaller muscle groups at the end!

 

[Daniel Andersson]

Strong looking session Creator

 

[knight_rider]

awesome creator.........but if i was to be picky, try and organise your supersets so that if your benching, which is a horizontal push, your then doing a horizontal pull such as a bent row.....there was a study which a dude one a nobel prize for in which he discovered how when you work one direction the opposing muscles relax and stretch giving a strength advantage etc..........something along those lines.....so wide grip chin/military press is a good coupling etc

 

[The Creator]

Prince: Thank you my friend!
Rocky: I took your advice!
Dan: Appreciate it buddy!
Knight: That is interesting and I can definately see how that would be advantageous. Thanks for the advice and I will have to see how that works!

Just finished up a heavy lower. I dont know what it was but I had a very good pump today and a gang load of energy.

Squat: 135x10, 225x10, 315x9, 335x7, 365x5, 365x4, 335x5
Sumo deads: 315x7, 315x7, 315x7 (still learning the motion)
Leg press: 20 platesx10, 20 platesx10, 18 plates x8, 18 platesx8
Calf raise on leg press: 5 platesx20, 5 platesx20, 5 platesx20, 5 platesx18, 5 platesx15

So thats it. Got in and got er done. I was pleased with my weight and reps on squats. I am definately getting stronger here. This was only my second time doing sumos. I really like how they feel in my glutes and hams which otherwise are hard for me to isolate. Light upper tomorrow.
