Tim's Journeyman Log

[Pickle]

xoxoxox drunk? lifting weights drunk what the fuck man?

 

[El Freako]

Drunk lifting is fun. Have you ever tried the chick press?

 

[tim290280]

PV: drunk with no warmup. Don't count your chickens too soon!

Pickle: seemed like a good idea at the time.

Freako: you mean benching a chick? Yep. They don't seem to like it though, something about it being degrading

Deadlift day went better than I thought it would. Bit uninspired but I still knocked out a good few sets. Technically 5kg better than last cycle, based on the rep max calc (215kg).

C&J
40kg x2
60kg x2
80kg x2
90kg x2
100kg x2

(I should include the deadlift walk of 100kg for 15m, as it killed my grip)

Deadlift
110kg x5
122.5kg x5
142.5kg x5
160kg x10 - this was good, could have had more if I wasn't seeing stars.

Step-up
20kg x20 2 sets

supersetted with

SL hammy curl
20kg x15 2 sets

Soundtrack:

If only these guys had nothing connecting them to Nickelback.

^^Nice song!

Solid deadlift, do you use dead reps or touch and go?

 

[tim290280]

^^ dead reps. I touch and go on some reps but I try not to as bouncing starts to come in too easily.

I do my dead reps by resetting the grip every rep or two. When I have my belt on I tend to stand up between every second or third rep, so that I can get a proper breathe in.

 

[PrinceVegeta]

^^ i do my deads the same way!! and i do 40kg only because there are no heavier dumbells in my gym! buti reckon i can only do 40kg with my left and like 44 with my right, damn imbalances!

Good session man, next time kick the bar the 15 meters!

 

[Pickle]

great session timbo. 10 @160 after cj maybe i should give u more love cause thats awesome effort.

 

[tim290280]

PV: Can't kick it, it has to cross a lawn and go up an incline. Ideally I'd lower it to my shoulders and walk it across, but the power rack j-hooks were set too low for that.

Pickle: more pickle love

Bench session today went well. First bench session in awhile were I felt as though it didn't suck. Probably all the warmups I did. Did some HIIT cardio (sex), then some slow cardio (mowed the lawn), then hit the weights.

Bench
20kg x5
60kg x5

[PrinceVegeta]

Good bench sessions Timmy!

 

[Hypocrisy86]

Awesome work there tim!

 

[Skeptic]

Solid deads mate

 

[El Freako]

Good work on the bench Timbo, you're suck quotient is slowly decreasing.

 

[Pickle]

you should have more sex and more mowing of your lawn before every session.

 

[tim290280]

Bulky: Saw the video, good stuff!

PV: cheers dude. I'm glad my bench is finally showing some promise.

Hypo: long time no visit to my log, thanks

Skippy: I'm going to have to try a max once my calc max is supposedly 230kg.

Freako: less suck more blow

Pickle: can't mow the lawn everyday...... guess I could do some more chores

It was only an ok session today. Main thing is that squats didn't suck.

[PrinceVegeta]

Nice session man, lots of squats, me like

 

[_ROBERTiNHO_]

Good squatting and soundtrack!

 

[Pickle]

great effort bra. I wish ud squat fresh oneday so i could see your true strength on a lift i actually do nice snatches as per usual xooxox

 

[El Freako]

I suck at spelling your.

Your squats are good though.

 

[tim290280]

PV: squats are fun, no matter what anyone says under the bar.

Rob: I used to play that song prior to every game of footy I played.

Pickle: I'm thinking of doing a max day either after the next cycle or two cycles time. I'll do it like a contest (squat, bench, dead, OHP) so squats will be first, three lifts each exercise.

Freako: thanks. Next cycle I'm adding some boxies to get used to have bigger weight on the shoulders and hopefully that will translate to even more progression.

Happy with this evenings session.
