Compadré!
Our stats are very similar. Same training age and aprox. the same numbers. May I ask how old you are? |
|
Nice workout you got going on there! And an hour of cardio the next day?... yeah, you deserve a day off..
|
|
So how are you liking those supersets? How long are you going to do them?
|
|
Hey man, thought I'd drop in by. Some good training ideas in here - like the Incline DB/BB superset. Sounds tough. My sorta thing.
That core set sounds pretty brutal. Do you rest inbetween each exersice? Or is it a each to each followed by a rest period job? |

Great workout! Love these superset combos you are throwing in. Continually challenging, must also raise the heartrate right up.
I figured that you'd have to take a decent RI inbetween those sets, as those 3 exersices in succsession must be realy brutal. Especially the volume. |
|
ok, so I did a set of 3 back to back today...
I thought I was going to friggin die.. I was breathing so hard.. I have total respect for your workouts now.. |
|
Great workout. I love you're supersetting style, do you feel like it is more effective for you than the conventional reps/rest/ repeat style?
Some great ideas in here. Whats a hammer stregnth pulldown? |

Bit of a hairy pussy too....
|
Lol, reminds me of when i was walking home last night.
There was this cat on a wall, and i called to it as i walked past and made to stroke it, but it hissed and ran off. My immediate reponse was to yell "Well fuck you, i never get any pussy anyway!". I sure hope the chinese girls walking 20 yards behind me didnt speak good english... |
|
It'll be worth it. We'll get IM members to send you packs of salad dressing.

![]() As long as you have "Free Gazhole" parties, im on board. My girlfriend will require some persuasion though. ![]() |
|
Speaking of barfing, great session!
How are you finding the supersets? Are you doing them with no rest, or with an RI in between exercises? |
|
Agreed, sounds like a really productive session. With these supersets, how long are you in the gym for?
|
|
Really interesting setup to that session, i like the rep ranges and the movements you're supersetting together.
Pullups and Supines on the same day is brutal enough, let alone SS them. Good job! Your Biceps must feel like theyre ready to burst ![]() |

|
DOMS's right. That workout was fucking insane. Even i would not attempt that, and I like pain. Great job.
|
|
Awesome work V. I have a vision of you swinging about on monkey bars when I think of the 'chins ladder'. What is that? Also, outstanding rowing.
|
good luck with your bulking, i think winter is a good time to start a bulk too
|
the supine rows are awesome ! i never knew about them until now.
|
|
you do some pretty crazy supersets bro, very nice indeed.
the supine rows are awesome ! i never knew about them until now. i have no way to do them at my house though, damn good luck with your bulking, i think winter is a good time to start a bulk too ![]() |
|
Ditto. I'm just thinking of revising my workout too. I've been at the same thing for 3mo now. Probably high time I swtiched it up. Like the idea of those supine rows (maybe with a weight on my chest). Thx for sharing.

Hey Vortrit!
Im seeing these 'ladders' in every journal i look in. I think it's time to get me some of those! Your workouts are really nice - great numbers! ![]() |

Vortit's really small. He carries a ladder around to be able to reach the bars on the pull up station....
I don't think you'll need one. |

Nice PR on the weighted chins mate - they're always a sticking point for me.
Onwards and upwards though - you'll be hanging small children off you while doing them soon, just like Double D!! |

Don't know if you recently listed them ,but what are your current goals?
|
|
Mostly just to bulk up right now and gain some strength and mass. Both of which are going well. Nothing too fancy.
|
|
Thats good. Simple with alot of hard work and understanding is all you ever need. I wish i understood that about a year ago.

great workout vortrit!
I love doing T-bars, haven't done them in a while, so I decided to throw them into my new split. |
|
shit man, you got some crazy workouts in here! a DB bench burnout in the middle?!...INSANE man
|
|
Fuck Yeah! Those DB Bench burnouts sound killer. How do you find the energy to do that much?
|
|
I don't know. My workouts have always been pretty intense. Plus, I try to eat a lot before I go lift.
|
|
Yeah, I suppose a LOT of carbs before would help.
I take it you stop eating 2 hours before? |
|
Actually, no. I eat all the way until the time I go to the gym. Maybe 1/2 hour before I go in.
|
|
I can't workout well on a full stomach. Just dose'nt work for me, I always give it 2 hours before any exersice.
|

how'd you feel going to inclines after all that benching? I'd be fried by then..!!
|

I feel overall I've been making really good progress. Six months ago I couldn't even do 4 x 10 bodyweight dips, and today I did 4 x 10 weighted dips.
