Welcome!

Two orals at the same time is a really bad idea. Dbol the first 3-4 weeks, then anadrol the last 3 weeks, but not together.

Posted by: the other half

jersey, why is it so bad to use two orals at the same time?

Katt told you to ask me that, didn't she?

As I'm sure you know, oral steroids are very hard on the liver. Anadrol is one of the worst. Dianabol is also. I guess if you used half doses of each then it wouldn't matter, but I get the feeling you were recommended full doses of each... OR you misunderstood your friends advice. Dbol is typically used to jumpstart a cycle because it takes injectables about 4 weeks to kick in. Anadrol is used as icing on the cake to finish out a cycle.

I suggest posting your cycle and dosages in the anabolic forum. I am no expert, and I quit doing androgens about 3 years ago, so I am rusty. Just the fact you are asking means you need to do more research and not just rely on a friend's advice. Whoever recommended Katt's cycle of primo and anavar was right on (I don't know the dosages though), for a woman.

Posted by: katt

Hey Jers...

I'm taking 5 mg of the anavar - morning & night
25 mg of the primo in the morning... I'm really thinking of upping that to a whole tab - 50 mg a day

Sorry for busting in on my hubby's thread

Posted by: the other half

how rude to bust in on my thread, id kick u butt if i thought i could.

jersey, we got our advice from the same person. but i will go and check out the proper way of taking this stack. thanks agian for the input. thats how we learn, besides the hard way.

you wanna see some shitty calves, take a look at mine. Absolutely pathetic, even when I trained them, just small, flat and God awful, so I have given up hope on them. People see my calves in shorts and think I have stick legs with this huge upper body, then I pull the shorts up past my knees, and then they're like "wow, you have got the biggest legs with the smallest calves I have ever seen"....true story

Would you rather have bulging calves with skinny thighs? I think that would look worse.

Hello there! You have a hard act to follow, Katts journal is amazing!

Sounds like your training is going well though!

Posted by: the other half

hello b & sam, thank u for coming to my thread. not quite as exciting as katt's, but i will try to keep it somewhat interesting. she really is a hard act to follow, and even worse to put up with sometimes.

had to work all weekend while she played(doing housework, and yard work that i didnt do on my days off), got to the gym this morning for a chest w/o , it felt really good, but the tri's where just a little pooped out by the time we got to them.

what is the SLDL Forza-machine? I have never heard of this piece of equipment before.

Posted by: the other half

p-funk, it is a company out of spokane, washington, and they build a line i think for power lifting and strength. we dont have a lot of their machines, but they are nice. this one u just load weights on the side and have handles to grip on the inside. it can be used either as a straight leg dead lift, or for shrugs.

Posted by: Burner02

Hey other-
just read thru this:
welcome!
Also..looks like we are similar in strength, so I'll be keeping along w/ ya!

thanks b. i work in a grocery store in the produce dept. so i m lifting all day
long. it makes it a little hard for the body to fully recoup some times.

yes sam it is like having 2 horses living in our house, and on our couches, and bed at nite, and they have to be right next to u no matter where u are.
alot of fun, but kind of a pain in the ass at times.

I can relate to that! I have a 2-1/2 year old Golden Retriever, and she is exactly the same way! If I go to sit on the pot, she comes in and drops at my feet

. I love this dog, and have a lot of fun with her, but man she can be a pain in the ass

jersey, there is no such thing as privacy is there????

this morning we got up-unlike yesterday- and went to do legs.
we are finding it impossible to get a whole leg w/o done in less than an hour.
so we just did the fronts
i had a hamstring tweak from last work out, so i was worried it would bug me.

box squats

135-10
205-10
225-10

thats the first time we have done box squats, i like the fact that u have a
bench under u for safety, i felt a lot more confident going deeper. but on my last set, i felt the left hamstring starting to tighten.

leg extensions

260-10
280-9
285-8
such a nice feeling

life fitness seated press
375-10

thanks for the concern about my hamstring sam, but katt says it is just a case of me being a whiny ass and not wanting to finish my w/o.

db, i just keep getting this little stinger in the inside of the leg, usually on the heavy set. i put ice on it yesterday, but i need to spend some time in the hottub and get katt to massage it for me. i keep telling her that she only has to massage my left leg, but she doesnt believe me.

Posted by: katt

oh yeah,,,, this is our workout at the gym...

I do my squats,,,, he goes to do his "oh... I have a stinger".....

I complete my sets

Then we do step ups,,,,, he says "oh....I have a stinger".....

I do mine...

whiney ass

get a freakin bionic replacement leg or something...

Posted by: Burner02

is he still spotting you on the squats? In front of a mirror? 'cause if he is...that's a smart man right there....he probably has a 'condition'...and not able to actually do the reps due to elevated blood flow in a southern male region.

Posted by: the other half

actually burner, we do box squats and i spot her while sitting on the bench.
some of the other gym members seem to have a little problem with this, i dont know why. i am a firm believer that you squat till u can't get the last one up-thats when the fun begins-

a stinger on the inside of your leg?? Maybe your balls just itch???

Hows the hammie bud? Make sure when you workout you get some extra warm up time (2x your normal amount) and stretch it out. Its hard to hit the interior of the hammie properly but try your best.

After workout do 2x normal cool down as well stretch and ice (20 minutes on 40 off 3x AT A MINIMUM!!...yes 3 hours worth of therapy) If you can freeze a cup of water in a stirafoam cup and do ice message therapy w/ it that would be great as well...just pull back the foam and rub it in the injured spot (katt could prolly get a better angle lol)

thanks db, i will let her know that it is an awkward angle for me to reach. i will use your great knowledge on the strecthing.
by the way, how the hell do u find time to respond to all this chat on the computer with all the worktime that u put in. it makes me feel like a lazy piece of shit, cause i can only FIND time to be on here for about 1/2 an hour a day.

reminds me of a joke:

Guy comes home to see his wife packed and headed out the door.
"What are you doing" he asked.
his wife responded:
"I found out that I can charge 400.00 in 'Vegas that I give to you for free!"
The guy goes inside and comes back out a couple minutes later with a bag of his own.
"Where do you think you are going?" She demanded.
"I've got to see how you survive on 800.00 a year!"

im glad your hamstring is better!

High rep leg press - thats gonna hurt!!

Posted by: the other half

actually, the worst part is trying to get out of the machine. when i get seated in it i reach up and pull myself as far forward as possible and set the seat, and after the last rep and your legs are burning it is really tough to get out of the seat because your legs are so compressed . they were a little tired yesterday at work when i was pulling pallets and unloading watermelon.
but today they feel fine.

no w/o this morning, we slept in till 6, so we will go tonite after work. that should be fun.

Posted by: Burner02

i wish we were still kids. when we go to vegas we act like it, staying out till 5 or 6 in the morning. but at home we are just old people. hahahahaha.

Posted by: the other half

thanks sam, katt never gives me any positive feed back. its always "stop your dam whinning and fucking do the weights" -"get out of their and just let me do the my set"

box squats as we do them are just putting a flat bench under your butt, so that u can go down and touch your butt, knowing that you have hit the 90% angle.

Nice front raises!

By the way, we are pretty much the same strength, but your beautiful wife has us BOTH beat.

Posted by: the other half

hey mb, i dont know if you have ever had tendonitice(sp), but i had it in the left elbow for about a year and i wasnt able to do any side lat raises or up right rows. so i did alot of front raises w/palms up. it has built a nice little ball at the front of the shoulder, but i got a cortizone shot in june, so know im trying to play catch up with the side lat raises, still cant do upright rows, they are to hard on my wrists. i think u have me beat in most areas, u throw some pretty good weights around, and without the option of cheating. of course i use the strictist of form at all time. yaaaaa.
but pound for pound both u and katt kick my ass all over the gym.

This is what it is

Bodybuilding.com - Exercise Guides Database.

But he does it a little different... he starts at the bottom and rotating to overhand when he hits the top of the movement, then it's overhand back down to the beginning. He kinda does a "circle" .... kinda, sorta... I guess it's one of those made up things...

well we had a little vacation from the gym, for the second weekend in a row.
kind of feel bad for missing so many days in a two week period, after not missing that many days total in just about eight weeks. i did manage to get off my lazy ass and go and do cardio. got in half an hour at 3.5 with level of 7. its just the start of getting ready for elk hunting. did some quick abs and a couple of biceps. nothing to really put down.

I actually had tendonitis in my elbow from vball back in high school and wasnt allowed to do lateral raises for like 4 weeks (like that stopped me!). But when I did them, the pain was just phenomenally bad! Im right there with you. It SUCKS!!

Yes, there are very few exercises I can cheat on.

Just a little window shopping. Just looking, no buying! Haha!

So get this. I went to the HAIR SALON last week with my girlfriend! Katt wanted me to tell you!

I think she might be hinting that she wants you to join her! Haha!!! Sorry

katt finally started to get her first pain from lifting, and i was like "welcome to my world". she doesnt have tendonitis, but just some shoulder pain.

ya, window shopping is ok, but i get in trouble for leaving finger prints on the glass all the time.

and as far as the hair saloon goes. she doesnt want me there for fear of me taking a pic with the cell phone. and using it agianst her.

I think we all can agree... Tendonitis sucks!

ya know jersey, it would be so bad if u could at least use it for an excuse to get out of doing housework, but no. i even told her that it hurt to push the vacuum, and all she said was, ya fuck head use your other hand. she is so brutal sometimes

Type it into a text or Word document first, then copy/paste it here.

Posted by: the other half

thanks triple threat, but easier said than done. i am about the most computer illiterate person you will ever come across, and katt doesn't want to show me how to do all that stuff, because then i will never get off the computer

Posted by: Musclebeach

Nice WO!!!

Haha... I can understand about the hair salon... I imagine I would catch hell if I were to take a pic there. In fact, if I stop posting on here for 2-3+ weeks, you will know what happen and should probably begin looking for my body clutching a cell phone.

I like the quote! It is SOO true!!!!....

"Its not about how much you can benchpress, it is about how much it looks like you can benchpress!"

LOL!

Posted by: SamEaston

Katts just full of good ideas huh!

Hows the tendonitis coming along? I feel for you buddy, one of my friends got tendonitis while training for henley a couple of months back and her physio told her to take 3 months off - no kidding and no cheating. It honestly took her that long to recover. I hope yours isn't as bad as that!

Posted by: the other half

sam, that is why her thread name is "willing to try anything once".
the down side is, i am the test subject most of the time. thats ok, im not dead,YET!!!!!
mb, i like that quote also, but i dont live up to it to well, my flat bench has been a mental block for all of my lifting years. someday i will get there.

I was asked this in one of my classes just a few days ago "How much do you bench? 400?" Oddly I get asked that a lot, but I cant bench anywhere near that much.

GREAT WO... I like the Incline CG Bench.

done that...2 heavy DB's starting to dig into your legs...and then your mind starts thinking: Man..this is some Heavy mutha flubbing weight!

Posted by: the other half

thanks mb. i dont like doing the dips as the first exercise, but katt wanted to do them, so i made her do them with weigths. thats a first for the incline close grip. it was ok. hoping to do better next time.

burner, how are u doing? another thing that will put a stop to your w/o is hitting your nipple with a db. makes you want to scream, MOTHER FUCKER THAT HURT!!!!!! you can ask katt, she did last.

Ouch!

Mine are all strapped up and out of the way when i go to the gym!!

I got this new top not long ago, which had a built in bra. Great idea, no? Well, i thought so, but then while working out, noticed that people were kind of staring at me, at my top, you know. I thought, it's okay, its a nice top, they obviously are appreciating the fabric or something. Only after wearing it a few times did i realise that, after working up a sweat, my nipples became really obvious through the material.

I looked like i was smuggling peanuts!

sounds like the new definition of "eye candy"!!!!

most guys dont mind that kind of a flaw in a workout outfit.
at least it isnt a real bad fashion statement.

the rest of it will be tonite after work. i dont do well with lifting after work.
partly because of the different crowd and also because i had to work all day.
but we will get it done.

Posted by: the other half

well we finally found our way back to the gym. a nice little break i must say.
our plan is to go with lower weights and higher reps, till we go on our hunting trip in october. and also we have three weeks to get some serious cardio in, or our butts are going to be dragging.

we arent taking any thing right now, no before w/o drinks, creatine,dhea, nothing. so i noticed a little bit of a difference in the energy level. but still got a really good pump. feel like im still retaining the mass that i got from the cycle.
well cardio tonite. fun,fun

i hold it with my arms crossed in front. when i start to get tired i get that little lean going and then i try to control it by holding the shoulders up and thats when i get my bicep cramps.

am doing good, sir! getting all ramped up to get serious again...
hhmm...cant' say I've ever hit the nip....but it doesn't sounds like a great time.
Worst thing I ever did w/ a DB...was with a 120...was getting set. (had spotter get it into position for incline DB press) it moved out a couple inches...and put one helluva strain on the shoulder I've had problems with...so had to somehow...bring that weight back down without:
1) dropping onto floor
2) dropping onto face

managed to avoid both...

Posted by: SamEaston

That's funny!

Guess that superhero training is really paying off huh!

Posted by: the other half

i try not to grab the 120 lb. db to start. that is usually a sign that something is going to hurt no matter what u do.

well we did 30 min. of cardio on the stair climber. i like that machine.
it is the only one that gives me the same feeling of hiking in the mountians.
yesterday i took about an eight mile hike, with my backpack, rifle, and pistol.
had to check out a couple of the hunting trials for next month. legs felt pretty good at the end of the day, but the back was a little tight from the backpack. less then 3 weeks till our trip. cool.

Posted by: the other half

i really wish katt would let me sleep in once in awhile.
today w/o shoulders
db press
50-12
55-10
60-5
ok, so im supposed to be doing set of 12, this isnt cool.

side lat raises
20-12
25-12
27.5-12

front raises-palms up
22.5-12
25-12
27.5-12

incline rev db raise
15-12
17.5-12
20-12

hyper ext.
45-15x3

shrugs
320-12
340-11
360-10

i have to get past the pyscologiacal part of this. you add 4 more reps to each set and it kicks your ass.

Posted by: Burner02

yeah...but you're happy seeing the results of being drug out of bed and 'forced' to the gym?
Your delt W/O was better than mine!

So...when you were out in the wilderness...all alone....did you see Big Foot?
'Cause...that would be cool...
:P

well i didnt see bigfoot, but at one point i was walking and got a pretty go whif of something nasty, either there was a bear close by or something dead, which would result in a bear being close by. thats the one time u dont want to see them.

Posted by: the other half

well burner, i havent taken any time off for the last year and a half. just a few vacation weeks and hunting trips. if i missed the gym for a couple of months i would really struggle. i think im to old so my muscle memory doesnt work any more.

Posted by: Burner02

it still works...just a little slower than it used to!

yeah...I'd prefer to not meet up w/ a bear in the wilderness....

i lose my grip on the weights because i have to move my fingers to count.
but yes i find that 12 and 15 do get a little tedious. but gotta do it.

Posted by: Burner02

heh....I had a friend go to the gym w/me the other night...did our own separate thing....but after I finished, I helped him do his delts.
He started on upright rows. I tried them again...and the anterior delt screamed HELL NO! so, I put it back down.
THen...he made the misstake of asking me if I'd help him do some negatives w/ it...
heh...he doesn't know me too well...I'm the perfect a--hole workout partner.
He started his set...got his first 4 or 5 out without stopping...then he started to pause at the bottom.
"UP!"
"I SAID UP!"

he was still kinda getting his wind...so I helped him bring the weight up...and he resisted down...tried that resting at the bottom again nonsense...

"UP!!!!"
again pulled it up.

on the third rep like this...I heard him explaim under his wheezing breath:
U.....<gasp> mother....<wheeze>...fugger.....
"UP!"

Four good negative reps; just as he asked for. Which, I reminded him as he looked at me with those...if I could lift my arms...I'd slap you eyes...

I mena...pppffft....he wasn't wimpering...no spittle was forming at his mouth....he still had juice, man! I was easy on him!

If you worked out at home, you wouldn't have to get dressed. Then you could do sets of 21.
