The choice of words way really off, it said something more like "Thank you very much, talented, my dear friend."

Youre liking those Hises huh? Have you noticed any hypertrophy to the traps since you started those?

Definately some growth there. Much more defined since I started doing them. I can put more weight on using hise's rather than, standard BB shrugs.



Posted by: AKIRA

I do both a pull/push shrug. Today I did regular DB shrugs, but theyre light. When I do Hises they are around your weight.

Reason why I ask about the hyper. is cuz today I didnt seem much of a difference. This might be the glory of a cut since I was already considering skipping a workout....

A blonde decides to try horseback riding, despite having had no lessons or prior experience. She mounts the horse unassisted and the horse immediately springs into motion. It gallops along at a steady rhythmic pace, but the blonde begins to slip from the saddle. In terror, she grabs for the horse's mane, but cannot seem to get a firm grip. She tries to throw her arms around the horse's neck, but she slides down the side of the horse anyway.

The horse gallops along, seemingly oblivious to its slipping rider. Finally, giving up her frail grip, she leaps away from the horse to try and throw herself to safety. Unfortunately for the blonde, her foot becomes entangled in the stirrup and is now at the mercy of the horse's pounding hooves as her head is struck against the ground again and again. Her head is battered against the ground, mere moments away from unconsciousness when...

Stan the Walmart manager runs out to shut the horse off.

Don't know. I've never tested, although Flat bench is my achillies heel. For some reason, I can't get good numbers on it, DB bench is far superior, proportionate weight for weight. I'd say I could'nt do any better than the incline though.

TY B. I'm thinking plyometric clapping push ups might do the trick. It's damn hard to get airborn off a pylometric pushup, and to have the explosive strength do do it, may help the bench.

4.2 mile run: Time: 27:25. Last 250m was a 90% sprint, felt confortable too.

On grass, so joints did'nt take a pounding.



Posted by: KelJu

I'm jealous. I went for a run this morning and barely made it 1 mile. I plan to start running every other morning to get my cardiovascular system up to par.

Maybe in a year or so I will be able to run half of what you can run.



Posted by: AKIRA

Grass huh?

Yeah my BROOKS Beast shoes helped with my shin splints! My Tibialis(es) are sore though. I keep feeling like I have shin splints, but when I touch them (they would hurt to the touch), they dont register much pain, if any.

I did 3 miles, up & down a bridge in 30:20 total. HIIT training.

Id love to jog on the grass.

Oh and Kel, none of this shit was easy.

You gotta remember I'm about half your size! It's easier for me cos I have less muscle to carry around than you.

But stick with it, add like 10% distance onto the run each week, and you'll be flying in no time. If you could manage some form of HIIT, your cardiovascular system will be right up there in no time. You'd be amazed the difference it makes vs. steady state.

I am now an extreme fan of HIIT. When I read your workout (4.2 miles), I thought, holy shit, I did 3 miles a few days ago! I guess I am not doing too bad!

Yeah man, grass makes a shitload of difference,, the impact is far less and joints etc. don't get nearly as hammered.

I have a shin splint in one of my legs before this run, but I thought fuck it i'll ride right through it as I 've done in the past. But it did'nt really affect me at all, due to the lesser impact on grass. If I'd ran on the sidewalk or road, I'd have been in pain.

Exactly. And you've not long started picking up the cardio, so 3 miles is not bad at all. When I started I went for 3 miles, but had to stop halfway round the first 2 times, but from there it's just got faster and easier.

After starting HIIT it improved a lot.

I love my HIIT sessions! Running up and down stairs is fun! Now it's time for another new pair of shoes, I seem to burn through them every 3 months or so.

BW + 20 x 10 (Weight held overhead, arms outstretched)
BW + 20 x 10

HIIT 1min @ 12, 1 min @ 17, Repeat 6 times.

Not bad at all. Unilateral bench hard to do. Hard to keep good balance when putting up heavy ass weight. Could grasp other side of bench, but that would be cheating. Best way was to manouver so that I was slightly off the side of the bench without the weight. Helped balance.

45 degree situps were real tough.

My philosophy is the more the better. It's pretty much against the grain, but higher volume seems to work better for me. I seem to be able to take a lot of punishment.

The T-bars went fine, but the supine's really hurt. It was trying suspend myself at the *middle for a few seconds that ot the burn. (*Insert correct terminology wher applicable)

Posted by: Witchblade

HIIT is already really hard without doing 50 mins of weight training beforehand.



Posted by: Brutus_G

yeah man take a break then go do some hiit. its hard to go balls out when you already went hard for 50 mins.

True. But it does bring all round fitness levels even higher to be able to do it. Heartrate goes up very fast using that HIIT protocol.

Rotating push ups surprisingly hard. For those tha don't know, as you push up, you rotate onto one arm, with the other pointing towards the sky. This effectively has turned you from facin the ground to being on your side, with the free arm perpendicular to the floor:



And then swap sides on next push up. As i said, harder than they look.

Cool Ive never seen those before! I may try em as always your looking very strong man and that volume shows you got one hell of a work capacity!

I think I used 10 or 15 pound dumbbells.

If you do them, try to find DBs that have padded grips. Whether you find DBs with padded grips or not, make sure to use gloves. That is because you should have a DB in both hands while you're doing them. You have to balance on the DBs while you're at the bottom, and then you balance on a single hand when you extend the off-hand up into the air, alternating the up-hand on each rep. If you don't use gloves, the pain on the supporting palm can get pretty bad.

I called them T Push-ups in my journal.

Gotcha. I remember you listing T push ups. Probably a more accurate name.

Sound advice. I could imagine them being painful to the palm. Holding a DB in each hand is also bound to affect the balance axis - but this can only be a good thing, working more muscles.



Posted by: Witchblade

You could use hex dumbells. They're easier on the balance. I'd use light dumbells too. You won't be able to keep your elbow extended with heavier ones.



Posted by: goob

Not available to me. I'd have to buy some.

Today: 4 mile run. 28.40. Not good. Got hit buy some leg pain halfway round and had to slow the pace. If not, I'd have knocked 1-2 mins off it.
Flying for the first 2 miles.

HIIT almost easy. My cardio conditioning has improved beyond all recognition from the start of the year. Can operate for long periods at 80-90% of max heartrate without dicsomfort. Pulse comes back down really fast afterwards- a good sign of fitness level.

Much like this. I try not to bend my legs like he did. A great exersice, hits lats, triceps, obliques etc.

Brutus, scarface, TC: Thanks dudes. You guys should give the bent presses a shot at somepoint. Use Dumbbells to start with, coz you can easily get injured doing it.

You don't have to do biceps isolation work. But who knows, maybe you'll see some good growth from it. Then again, you may get nothing from it. But you won't know until you've tried!

Oh, and solid workout, man!

Felt like a change. Thought I'd go lighter and much higher with reps.
This was an ass-kicker. Make no mistake, it may not look like much, but the high reps meant a staggeringly tiring workout. Sweat was positevly dripping off me after what was, an effectively 3.5 minute plank.
Pumps were awesome throughout. Recomend a day doing something like this for anyone wanting a temporary change.



Posted by: tallcall

Sounds like you had a fun time today! I think I'm going to do some long body weight planks today.

2nd day of low carb, so stregnth was well down. No where near my best.

Sidenote: Anyone else on low carb feel MORE bloated than when not. I know it's only been two days, but this is a wierd side effect.

Later: 3.2 miles: 22:14. Poor effort, but to be expected.



Posted by: Brutus_G

Thats interesting that you feel bloated how do you feel mentally?

Not all that different. I was excpecting the ol' brain fog as you put it, but it has'nt kicked in properly yet.

Although low carb to me is about 40-100g carbs per day. I eat loads of veg - spinach, cabbage, peppers, tomatoes, broccolli etc. as part of my meals. This may up the carbs slightly - but are counted in the total.

A year? How much of a loss have you made in that time? And was it fast at the start?

No veggies are great and i don't care what anyone says about ketosis I'm gonna eat my dam veggies lol. I bulk and cut low carb man i don't get much in the way of sides unless cals are very low but i don't lower them to low any more now i just run more or swim.



Posted by: Scarface30

very nice workouts the past week in here goob!

once you up the carbs, the strength will be back to the 'ol goob!



Posted by: tallcall

Are you doing anything in the way of refeeds?



Posted by: AKIRA

Youre cutting too? I just had some pizza on this workout day. Whats funny is that I still wont hit 3k calories.



Posted by: katt

I can totally feel your pain.... my first week of cutting and loading in the vege's also (I love love them!!!) I was in misery,,, so bloated.. but this week doesn't feel too terribly bad.

Is 40-100 considered low carb... ???? Do you know what is considered no carb? I thought it was if you were taking in less grams than your bodyweight... I could be really wrong here.

Fair point. They have virtually no cals anyway. Just don't taste that great.

Nice one Katt. You put my mind at ease, I figured the veg might well be responsible for bloating ( i was fairly loading them on).

Not sure about exact numbers for low carb. I hope you are right in you're bodyweight idea.

I read somewhere <20 is no carb. (almost impossible to achieve)
<60 is low



Posted by: katt

Below 20 is no carb... I don't know if I could do that one....



Posted by: goob

No, it's a little extreme. And you could'nt have any veg really, as that would take you above 20g.


Today: 4.2 mile run. 30:34. Very poor. No energy to push myself, infact all i could do was keep an easy pace. This low carb stuff, is playing havoc with athletic performance. After I was finished, I almost felt ill. I've never felt like that after that run before.



Posted by: Brutus_G

Id stay above 40G so you dont enter into ketosis. Yeah 100g or lower is def low carb unless of course your naturally a lean bastard then you low carb it with 300g lol.



Posted by: Witchblade

Sounds like you need more carbs on your workout days. You shouldn't feel like that so early in your cut.

Nice clap push-ups. 5x10 is damn good already. Rosstraining(.com?) offers lots of cool ideas for explosive training and cardio.

Done. Hit around 50-100. On high carb days, it works out at about 300- 500g.

Plan is:

Day:
1) Low
2) Low
3)Low
4) High
5)Low
6)Low
7)High

Not noticing too much, but it has only been 8 days. On a side note, no 'brain fog' or anything else. Mentally alert and happy, physically, stregnth is down and endurance not quite as good.

One workout day must suffer low carb. I will maybe have some sort of light carb snack before on that day. Will try to workout on high carb days to minimise loss of stregnth.

I'll check that site out. Thanks Witch.

- never stand still (walk between sets too)
- momentum is allowed
I might well try that. My sort of challenge.

I think you need to give yourself a decent stretch - especially the lower legs before running. Hell, I give myself more of a full body stretch before running, than I do before lifting. Concentrate on the lowest - calfs, shins and ankles. Done right, and you'd have no problems.

Yeah. Compared to the Decline presses, I dont get it.

I know his vertical push strength is better than his horizontal push strength, but that would be the reason why Id incorporate MORE horizontal strength exercises.

I know there are pushups in there beyond belief, so maybe goob's goals arent for getting that bench = or > the military press's strength.

To be honest, everytime I look at your workout goob, I always look first to see if your bench has gone up.

The extra set was because despite the (no) rest intervals, I felt my shoulders could o an extra couple of rounds. The weight being lighter than usual.

There's no way my bench will be going up during this low carb cutting phase. Once I get where I want, I'll start to work on it properly, but for now, pylometric pushups and variants will take it's place.

Bingo. Either pause for 5 seconds, or 20 at max.

Haha, truth is I'm a lousy swimmer. I used to be great, but not anymore, technique has all but gone.

Ever try doing weighted planks? Me and another trainer use 3 plates and go for 30secs, then drop a plate and then another 30, etc.....all the way down to bw for 30.
