If you can do all those pullups, I would try adding some weight and doing smaller sets, i.e. do bodyweight +10lb x 6, 6, 6. Could jump up your back strength pretty quickly.

Thanks for the tip Stencil I normally do them with 20 lbs between my feet but I had Hernia Surgery 13 days ago so I'm on a "limited workout" for the next three weeks. My doctor recommended that I only do 1/2 the amount of weight this week and slowly add more resistence every week.Stop by anytime

6/28/04

Over the weekend I got a pretty good workout outside. I'm installing a "dry well" where I'll drain my laundry water into instead of my septic field (since my septic field is smaller than it should be.) I dug up a 5 ft x 5 ft x 5 ft hole. The worst part about it was I had to dig through a bunch of roots so I used a couple different shovels and Sawz-All. It took about 4-5 hours. Now I have to hook up some pipes, fill in the hole with "washed rock", drill some holes into the side of my house and hookup my washing machine. This should take another 4-5 hours. Fun .. Fun!!

......

I plan on hitting the gym today for a PUSH workout then on Tuesday and Wednesday (pending the delivery of rocks) I'll finish up the well. Thursday will be an off day then I do Legs on Friday. I'm going to skip my PULL workout since I'll be shoveling about 8 tons of rocks on Tuesday and Wednesday.

YM ... whaddup?

I still you're consistently lifting. I read you had surgery ... how are you feeling? If you're at the gym, you must be feeling pretty good.

Workouts are looking solid bro, keep it up. Back workout really looks good. I see that you're doing a ton of pullups, have you ever considered strapping some weight around your waist and doing them that way? Whole new exercise.

I'm sure YM has added some weight ... that is where I got my inspiration from to add weight to my pullups. I recently did a personal best of 100lbs for 3 reps.

Hey NT and Monstar.....

Things are good. Just getting back into the swing of things again. I'm still only 17 days post-op.

I have used weights before with pullups. I'm on a restricted workout for a few more weeks (Doctors orders). My cut hasn't completely healed from the outside so I know know there is still a lot of healing to do on the inside. The doc used 5 layers of stitches to tighten up the hernia. I'll probably just stick to pullups for a few more weeks then gradually add weights.

NT - 100 lbs for 3 is GREAT!! Good Job!

Monstar - I'd like to add Deads in my back workout soon too!!

Good to see you guys stoppin' by!!

I just got done moving 9 tons (inch size) rocks to the side of my house so this will count as my back/bicep workout! That's a lot of shoveling and wheelbarreling. I'm doing some landscaping.

It took me from 4:30PM - 9:30PM (with a 1/2 break for dinner.

Damn I'm wiped out!!

Time for bed.......Tomorrow is an off day. I have to finish my project.

I hope you switched hands with your shovel, or at least favored your weak side, or else one of your lats is gonna end up huge!

July 6

I took the weekend off from the gym. I've been getting the 'outdoor wokouts' in. I took down a 50' tree in my yard over the weekend. Lots of chain sawing, chipping and hauling wood. My back, shoulders, bis and legs got a good 10 hour beating over two days. So today I'm going to do a Chest / Tricep workout to get back on track for the gym.

My repaired hernia is feeling much better. It's been 3 1/2 weeks since surgery so I'm almost ready to start hitting the "heavier" upper body workouts. Squats and Deads are going to have to wait another two weeks.....
