Gentlemen,

I'm back. I miss Rock, RG and all my other buddies

The Goal is 195lbs.

The diet comes from Dr. Pain and the wonderful mod's at www.fitnessandbodybuilding.com

Same thing every day:

The Workouts generally come from Fitchick

178lbs this morning

Warm-up:
2-3 sets of lat pulldowns
Hypers

1. Deadlifts - 5 sets
140 x 12
190 x 10
240 x 8
290 x 7
310 x 4
All double over hand. Nice smooth and easy Happy I would like to start at 225 next time, and make the increments smaller.

4 sets - 8, 8, 6, 6
100 x 8
120 x 8

4 sets - 10, 8, 6, 6
300 x 10
330 x 8
360 x 6
420 x 7 PB
WHOA, that felt unbelievably easy today! They must've oiled her down or something Happy 'bout time

4. One-Arm DB Rows:
4 sets - 8; 8; 6; 6
80 x 8
85 x 8
95 x 6
100 x 6 PB
Left felt slightly weaker, but still squeezed out all full reps Happy

5. Stiff arm pull downs [was supposed to be Wide-Grip Face Pulls]
3 sets- 12, 10, 10
120 x 12
120 x 10
130 x 6---> 90 x 12

We don't have a cable machine with any adjustible pulleys, and there were no boxes avaliable to stand on

Are you going to continue to decrease the overall volume over time or are you going to keep with the 20 sets?

Fitchick regularly gives me some cool things like one arm SB flat press (free arm staying up in the air.)

Nice numbers on the deadlifts

I just checked our your gallery and you look quite a bit bigger than 173lbs, how tall are you?

Thanks man. I'm just under 5'10" Wish I had one more inch :|

I"m about 179 right now.



Posted by: Seanp156

That's weird, I'm exactly 5'10 and I look a decent amount smaller than you. Although most of the pics in my gallery were taken when I was about 164 or so. Also, you're more cut than me as well so that and being a little heavier probably explains why you look bigger

How long have you been BBing for?

What should I do for legs today




WORK THEM!


Last Monday, LadyD, Dr. J and I did something fast and ...e....well...not too easy


0) W/U ...thorough!

1) SLDL's, 10-12 sets, becareful here, you had a hard back day, just mid to lower shin, (we use quarters for gr8ter ROM) concentrate on the contraction by queezing under your butt (glute/hamstrindgs) ....not the erectors, moderate w8, moderate reps

2a) Leg extensions, 25, then, 35, then, 45, last set 55 reps
2b) Front 1 and 1/4 squats, go down, come up 1/4, go down, come all the way up = 1 rep, 4 sets, 6-8 reps

3a) Seated leg curls. 3 sets, 12 reps
3b) Seated Calf, 50, 75, 100 reps LadyD did these at a plate, Dr J and I the first 2 sets at 2 plates, then a plate plus a quater...nice BURN!

4) Free Motion calves or equivalant....4 sets 15-20 reps

90 x 12---->70 x 50
85 x 12---->70 x 75 omgosh burn and cramps
80 x 12---->40 x 100 no cramps, that last 10 were SLOW and rough; but full.

4)Standing Smith Calf raise Was supposed to be---> Free Motion calves or equivalent....4 sets 15-20 reps
315 x 20 PB
365 x 14PB I had a 15th in me, but the machine was hopping around. I should have racked extra 45's on the bottom.
365 x 12
255 x 25

GREAT work out

Your right side is more used to working, your left side works with more INTENSITY to lift the same weight. Its all about intensity dere brudda.

Posted by: maniclion

The left / right thing could be that you had been using your right arm to compensate for the left in the BB exercises so that when you got to the one arm curls the right was worn out more than the left. I notice when I do BB bench my left tends to lift hire than the right shifting the load, that's why I've made it a rule to start with dumbells for the first 2 or 3 exercises and exhaust each arm seperately then blow them out on the BB exercises.
