vary nice work there. those Arnold presses are gunna make ur shoulder explode.

Posted by: SamEaston

Big numbers in here OH - good going

Do you use DBs or a BB for the Upright Rows? I use an EZ bar and it helps alot rather than a straight bar, which i would think would make the pain worse, no?

Posted by: Scarface30

that's some strong military and Arnold pressing OH

sam, right now we use the straight bar bell, but i think i might go to the ez bar. it is alittle hard on the wrists, but i also have a hard time with the resistance going down because of the tendonitis.

Posted by: the other half

thanks scar, i like the arnolds, it feels kind of like you are cheating.
well we are trying to heal up from the snowboarding trip. my ankles and knees seem to get the worst of it, and katt was testing the theory of gravity while falling down steep hills. i think she flunked that one!!!!!!!

Posted by: PreMier

workouts are coming along well. as far as me getting back to 'there'.. yea. it took a good 3 years of solid training to get there and tons of food, so i just need to stay consistant, thats my biggest problem.

if you aren't falling down..you aren't TRYING hard enough!

ya sam, i could use the db, but we are just trying to stick to the same aparatise(sp) every workout.

Posted by: the other half

thanks jailhouse, it was a good workout. still, we just run a couple minutes short of time it seems.

burner, i fall down alot, but on easy slopes, katt falls down on the diamonds and therefor has to fight the gravity thing alittle bit more that i do.

hey b. no katt wasnt the only one falling, but i dont go as fast so i didnt hurt as much. i did take a couple of good falls where u hit your ass first and it just jars your whole insides, then your head bounces off the ground.
god i just love that feeling

I loved you while you where here OH.

I dont even touch skullcrushers anymore the only way i can work triceps is DB over head extensions, dips, and tricep pushdowns.

Posted by: goob

I hate those days when it just dose'nt work for you. Total opposite of the gems of days, when you slip into turbo mode all the way through and cannot be fazed.

Posted by: JailHouse

Nothing to be upset about there. Looking really strong.

Posted by: the other half

BRUTUS, im not to worried about dying just yet, we still have to many bills to pay before she can get rid of me for good.

i like the overhead ext. also, but they seem to hurt the elbows just as bad.
lately the db kickbacks seem to be working really good for me.

GOOB, i dont usually have many days like that last one. i just think it was all the bad food, liqour, and crazy sex.

ya thats it, thats the ticket.

JH, thanks bro for the support. next workout will be better.

alot of times when i stall on a weight i just get pissed and tell my self that i will not lose the next time to a piece of iron. kind of force an attitude and it seems to work most the time, but on that workout, i lost.

have you ever tried any ofthe positive reinforcement type 'exercises'?
its kind of a conditioning skill. Picture in your mind, your being strong, unstoppable, etc. When you do this, snap your finger or give a slight tug on an ear lobe. (its like a pavlov theory) keep doing this...
eventually, if you aren't 'feeling it', do your thing ( tug of ear, snap, whatever) it will trigger that unstoppable feeling and refocous to the task at hand.
give it a whirl.

Posted by: katt

I can totally take care of the slapping....

Posted by: Burner02

I like a little slap-n-tickle myself...now if only I can find a 'katt' for myself...

Posted by: katt

Didn't you say that you had a girlfriend?????

Or you could just sleep all day.

Posted by: the other half

hey TT, hows it going.
actually the have one and a quarter and two and a half pound magnetic weights that you just slap on the end of a barbell. works pretty good.

and yes, i could just cuddle up with these two furry creatures laying at my feet right now and just take a 4 hour nap. but the down side is that they wont help me get my chores done when we wake up.

Posted by: the other half

my bad, on the weights question. we do have db that start at 2 and a half and go to 55 lbs. in 2 and a half pound jumps. then after that it is all 5 lb jumps.

or someone could hire that kid out of colorado that was the second string kicker and he could do a job on randy moss.

Nice WO OH. Lots of volume, my sort of stuff. Nice squats & deads, Good work!

Posted by: JailHouse

Lots of heavy compounds there. You should be sore head to toe tomorrow.
I don't have a favorite team for the bowl this year.

Posted by: the other half

thanks goob, and jh. i think the hot tub will be getting used after the super bowl tonite. a little liquor, hot tub, i will be asleep in ten minutes after getting out.

i dont really know who im going to go for today either, i just want it to be a close game. maybe going down to the last posession of the game.

Posted by: Scarface30

excellent workout OH. all the leg work and then move on to shoulders

shoveling is definitely underrated as a form of a workout, it is ridiculously tiresome!

thanks, we had to make up the workouts, we will see how tired the shoulders are tomorrow on chest day.

shoveling is a bitch. but we drive around and some people dont shovel and their places look like crap. plus its pretty cool how high our snow piles are.

That's pretty bold to do squats and deads in the same workout!

Posted by: the other half

bold or stupid?

Posted by: JailHouse

I think this will be a good game. Last time they played giants did good the first half, so they know what they got to do and theres a lot more on the line here.

Damn straight. I popped a rib.

ouch that doesnt sound good

Posted by: DOMS

Actually, it sounded like "Pop!". If you were in the room, you could have heard it.

Posted by: SamEaston

Rib-popping?? Bleedin 'eck, you wanna watch out at your age

OH - im not surprised you were wiped out after that workout. Sometimes when i have to combine two body parts like that, i give it hell for the first lot, then by the second lot i just couldn't care less.

I think an hour of weight training is a max for me - any more and my body just shuts down

Posted by: the other half

hey sam

i was actually pretty suprised, it only took us about 1 hour and 15 minutes. not bad. the gym was pretty empty, i thought it would be packed with the game on today.

well we are off to eat, drink and be merry, and watch the game.

Posted by: the other half

well im a little sore from the workout yesterday, but had a good day in all.
great football game, alittle food, some drink, and then the hot tub at the end of it all.

todays w/o
flat bench

alright so here is the kicker.
**** that is when i dropped the weight on my chest. and not a controlled drop, but a drop from 3/4 extension. so katt and i picked it up and put it back on the rack and fininshed the set.
the pride was a little hurt.
then i went to work, and thats when my chest started to hurt.
went to the dr. after i got off, nothing broken or cracked, just bruised. but still he said to take 2-3 weeks off from any heavy lifting.
i think that tomorrow is gonna really suck.

Solid benching OH. Your chest must have been fried like a Southerner's roast Lizard sandwich.

on monday i dropped the barbell on my chest while doing incline with 185.
i use an open hand grip and it just fell from about 3/4 extension.

so the lat pull down was the only thing that seemed to pull on my chest and i didnt want to take any chances of doing more damage.

Posted by: the other half

hey B and sam, not a really hard workout, but at least i tested the waters to see how my chest was going to take the workout.

good idea goob, we did spend alittle bit of time checking out hedo 2. that would be a kick in the ass (and maybe something more) but you have to be really secure with who you are and your patner. still a possibility.

hawiia would also be really good brutus, katt has been there, but i havent.

today we are going to check out nigrel, in jamacia. they have some couples resorts and we will also check out what they have for staying out side of the resorts. fun,fun, i cant wait to go.

Don't pooh-pooh that. I popped a rib doing RDLs a couple of years ago and I still feel apprehensive sometimes.

i think katt was more paroniod today than i was. she felt bad last week, thinking that she could have done something to stop it from happening.

Posted by: Triple Threat

I think being a little hesitant on the benching is normal. At least you got back in there. Now to work on improving your spotter's technique.

she has lots of great techniques.

That's why you have to wrap the thumbs around the bar.

Seriously though, fantastic work there OH. It's funny how the last workout of the week has the potential to either be fantastic, because you know you're off the following day, or absolute crap because you're so tired from the weeks workouts! It's a real toss of the coin for me.

yes TT, but there are those things that they call airplanes!!!!!!!

thanks scar. we just started a new program today. so they are going to drop alittle bit.

hey B

it is still going to be along the same lines of what we were doing.
chest/tri-back/bi-day off shoulders/abs-legs2 days off. and cardio at least 3 days a week. but we are going to the 8-12 rep range.

dont worry brutus. i just had to throw some fun out there. i didnt even think about the color of my pr's until goob said something. and here i was all proud of myself and he ruined it.

Posted by: the other half

got a couple of hours to kill between work and doing cardio tonight.

so here's todays workout.
incline db press
60-10
70-10
80-9

db bench
65-10
75-8
80-8

l/f cable cross overs
42.5-8
42.5-5
35-8
ok, that sucked. its a new set up at the gym, and the weights are really heavy. everybody that has used them,say that they cant do anywhere close to the weight that they did on the last machines.
s/s
diamond pushups
10/10/10

db overhead ext.
80-10
85-10
90-6

l/f pushdowns
70-10
75-9
80-6
fuck

dips-bw
got 2 but i could really feel it in my chest muscles. i think that just about hurt worse than when i dropped the weights

db tri kick back
35-8
37.5-8
40-6

Posted by: Scarface30

very nice workout OH

incline and then flat DB press must have been killer!

as for the new machines, I noticed that too in my gym. I also noticed that on the machines that the weight was heavier the 2 pulleys at the top were spaced closer together than the pulleys that the same number of plates on stack seemed light. if my physics stands correct, pulleys spaced further apart make the weight seem lighter...mechanical advantage or something of the sort.

forgot to post that we did cardio last night.
45 minutes on the tread mill. its one of the new ones and it has different pics to show your progress. so i put it on the one of a mountian. and after 45 minutes i had went 2.7 miles and climbed over a 1000 feet in elevation. pretty cool, but i only got half way up the mountian.

tonite was just a regular treadmill. 45 minutes.
less incline and i kept my heart rate at about 125-130.

Posted by: Pylon

Nice work on the cardio. What other kinds of pictures does it have?

Posted by: Gazhole

Looking good OH

You don't seem to be missing a single damned beat in here.

Also, dont worry about the difference in machines - the same thing happens to me on the 3 lat pulldowns i use in the various gyms. As long as the intensity of the lift feels the same, its all good.

Bloody annoying though.

how are things py?
it has a picture of a track, a walking trail, and then just the basic bars that light up.

it pretty cool, but i like our old ones better, they have a built in fan at the top of the machine that hits you in the face, if you are tall enough.
