1/28/04 Back/Rhomboid/Bicep

Ok.. today was not a good day. The first part of the workout kicked ass! But... then this guy came and started talking to me. God he talked so f'king much I wanted him to die! He was like a fly on shit, so f'king annoying. Took up a bunch of my time, and I didnt get to do the rest of my workout, because im on a strict schedule.

Back--
Pullups
3 sets 10reps per set

Lat pulldowns(Super wide, bar has handles on very end)
3 sets 12 reps@140Lbs

Bent over barbell rows(using reverse grip)
1 set 20 reps@95Lbs
1 set 15 reps@135Lbs
1 set 10 reps@185Lbs

Bent over 2-arm long bar rows
1 set 15 reps@90Lbs
1 set 15 reps@135Lbs
1 set 10 reps@160Lbs

Seated cable rows
1 set 15 reps@120Lbs
1 set 15 reps@140Lbs
2 sets 10 reps@150Lbs

Lat pulldowns(straight bar, reverse grip)
3 sets 10 reps@130Lbs

Rhomboids--(this is where said dipshit started buggin)
Shrugs
1 set 15 reps@135Lbs
2 sets 15 reps@225Lbs
2 sets 10 reps@315Lbs
1 set 8 reps @405Lbs

That is all I was able to get done, normally I would do behind the back shrugs on the smith machine too. And dont forget Biceps... Would normally get to work them out. Im soo pissed

Dont like headphones. They are hella annoying. I have a really nice pair that are like DJ ones that cover your whole ears, but thats for when I want to enjoy music. I will just need to tell him to go away next time something like this happens.

Thanks for stoppin by

I usually try and avoid this by looking down at the ground and not looking at anyone. If they keep talking I just start my next set and not even listend to them.....I guess I am a jerk

The workouts have been regular(Slight exception for today). I have been on the 3 on, 1 off, 2 on, 1 off. Split for a while. I had a meeting with Ron and he said I needed to change my routine, thats why it has changed mid journal. Also I have quit using a weight belt per info I learned from Vanity and Mudge. I am still in the learning phase of BB. Have been serious for about 5 months now and I am seeing great gains. I believe that I have a lot of potential. Thanks for dropping in

No shit bro, i know exactly how you feel. I'm at school, so every 2 min. some dickhead comes up and asks me "can i work in" or "how much you got left" or "wow, your pretty strong".

So what i do is ignore them. I have headphones on, so even if there are standing right in front of me, i keep my head down and pretend they're not there.

If they keep talking, i just throw a weight across the room and scream as looud as i can.....this method usually works well



You're a funny guy, Sully, I like you. Dat's why I'm going to kill you lahst.

Hey Premi! I didn't know you had a journal! Still reading through it but looks great! How is your split working for you?



I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

2/2/04 back/rhomboid/bi

Today was a good workout. I have also increased my meals... I was finding myself getting hungry shortly after each meal. So the "Mudge Meal" now contains 3 cups cooked brown rice, and 3 large chicken breasts, and 1/2 cup spaghetti sauce. That should put them over the 1k calorie mark. I also ate some leftover shrimp from Sundays party. 1/2 pound to be exact

Lat pulldowns(Super wide, bar has handles on very end)
4 sets 12 reps@140Lbs

Bent over 2-arm long bar rows
1 set 15 reps@90Lbs
1 set 15 reps@135Lbs
1 set 10 reps@160Lbs

Seated cable rows
1 set 15 reps@120Lbs
1 set 15 reps@140Lbs
2 sets 10 reps@160Lbs

Lat pulldowns(straight bar, reverse grip)
3 sets 10 reps@140Lbs

Rhomboids--I am going a bit lighter, because I feel I need to increase grip strength. Therefore no wraps)
2 set 15 reps@135Lbs
4 sets 15 reps@225Lbs
2 sets 10 reps@315Lbs

Bi's--
Lying incline DB curls
3 sets 10 reps@35Lb DB

Two of my buddies that I train with have crazy over active sweat glands. I have never seen a person break a sweat while wakling down the street in 10degree wheater. So you can imagine what it looks like when they workout....lol.....One warm up set and they look like I do at the end of a 2hr. workout!!!

2/3/04 Legs

Well, went a bit lighter again on legs. Didnt want the extreme pump in my lower back again... needed to finish the w/o.

Legs--

Leg extensions
1 set 20 reps@70Lbs
1 set 20 reps@90Lbs
1set 20 reps@110Lbs
2 sets 20(18) reps@120Lbs

Squats
2 sets 10 reps@135Lbs(warmup)
2 sets 10 reps@225Lbs
2 set 6 reps@ 285Lbs

Front squats
2 sets 10 reps@135Lbs
2 sets 10 reps@185Lbs

SLDL
2 sets 10 reps@135Lbs
2 sets 10 reps@225Lbs
1 set 10 reps@135Lbs

Standing calf raises
2 sets of 225Lbs 50rep sets, 10 slow controlled reps, 10 bounce/fast reps-repeat

Donkey calf
2 sets 185Lbs go till burn(Roughly 20 reps)
4 sets 225Lbs go till burn(" ")(man.. theese fried my calfs today... Could hardly walk!)

Also I mentioned yesterday that I was increasing my diet... well I did yesterday, but not today. I found it VERY hard to keep the food stomached. I almost lost it more than a few times. And I couldtn even drink a protein shake before bed because I was so full, I was almost puking. I did however change it a bit... Its now only about 2 1/2cups rice instead of 3 and I also eat 2 1/2 chx breasts instead of 2.

Also my biceps are sooo sore. They havent been sore in months! I could hardly brush my teeth!

Oh yes.. I always hit parallel and usually lower. I am very anal about it, because I see so many kids that never even get close.

What do you mean? The meals yesterday contained 3 cups cooked rice, 3 large chicken breasts, 1 cup spaghetti sauce, and 1 apple. After the third meal I could taste it in the back of my throat and was constantly burping it up. Each meal contained roughly 1200 cals. So I have lowered the amound of rice and increased the amount of chicken in them. I just finished the first a bit ago. Feel fine.
