Basketball Game 1 hour

I wasn't very happy with my first game back since last summer but we won 55 - 52. The best news is my abs felt fine this morning.



Today's workout will be Shoulders/Traps.

You use a smith machine or freeweight?
I use freeweight, but I have to use my wrist straps. There is no fuckin way I can hold that much without them

Nice presses, YM. How many reps you want to get before you move to the 100's?

PM -

I'm using free weights too. I hear ya - I use straps as well. There's no frickin' way I could hold 365 for more than a couple reps if I didn't.

Mono -

I moved up to 105's two weeks ago (the 100's are broken). I plan on using 105's next week. I wanted to get 2 sets of 95 x 8.

MonStar -

Thanks! I'm doing the cardio to burn all the crap I eat and drink on the weekends. Lately my diet has been filled with too much beer and fatty foods on the weekends. As far as basketball goes - I just like playing.

I'm trying to keep my waist 33" or lower. In order for me to get my waist smaller I would have to totally change my lifestyle. With summer coming up I plan on cutting my gym time to three days a week with two other days for cardio or sports. I plan on doing a lot more wake boarding and spending time on the water.

Nice man. Those are some good variations(IE: cable face, db row). I will have to try them if I ever survive this tri phase training

I absolutely love these man. The only what that I do them is seated like seated cable rows except I pull the rope/v-bar attachment to my neck. They stress the hell out of your middle traps don't they?

Hey Monstar -

The face pulls definately work your back differently.

This site:

http://www.abcbodybuilding.com/exercise1.htm

has some good exercises to try. I'm trying to pick a new exercise every time I go in to keep my routine changing.

Interesting link man, I appreciate it.

So how are you liking push/pull/legs? I am doing the same split.

I'm actually doing

Sunday off
Monday chest/tris
Tues Back/bis
Wed Basketball
Thursday Legs
Friday Shoulders/Traps
Saturday - something outside (sports)

I do like PUSH/PULL/LEGS. I did that routine last year for quite a while. With summer coming soon, I'm going back to Push/Pull/Legs probably in 3 weeks.

Didn't do legs yesterday since it was 80' and sunny!!! I spent a few hours in the tire store since they broke a wheel stud off when putting my new wheels on

Oh well - the good news is - a buddy of mine called and asked to play "Let's make a deal". The deal is - I buy him a few rounds of drinks on Saturday- and he gives me a ticket to Wings game (14th row) Four of us guys are heading down a little early to get fired up before the game!!!!!

Go Wings!!

Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.
