Yes it does. The Bench leaves that area and the Preacher curl rest comes off the bench too. I would just feel safer from injury if I did squats in a cage. Then I know if I'm lifting too much I can Drop it on the bars instead of on the ground and screwing up my garage floor.
Thanks!! |

Today was my Chest and Tri's (also a litmus test of sorts) I was pissed earlier today. Went to go pick up my new set of weights and they were out (Big 5).  I just made do today with what I had and did barbell flat, incline and decline. I really wish I had someone to spot me. I would make my gains jump up quicker , especially bench press.Barbell Bench Press 135x8 150x8 155x8 170x7(Failure Wish I had spotter, but back to where I plateued) Decline Barbell Bench 95x8 115x8 125x8 145x8 (Last one was a little tough and I was suprising how good I did this. Haven't used Barbell since High school, thus I believe this is a personal best. Will up this for sure next week.) Incline BB Bench 115x8 125x8 135x8 145x5.5 (Failure. 1.5 reps closer to back to where I use to be.) Incline Flyes 30x10 30x10 40x10 40x12 (failure, need doggone dumbells now  )Bench Dips 10x10 10x10 10x10 25x10 (Last one almost didn't make to the top, could have been ugly) V=Bar Press Down 40x10 50x10 60x6 (Failure) Reverse Grip Press Down 10x10 15x7 20x5 (Failure) Behold the power of more calories and carbs!! I was pretty happy after this workout but not satisfied. I felt kind of Blah half way through we workout. I tried "GO" for a second time and it made me feel like crap! Won't use it to workout with anymore. I'll use it when I'm getting tired at work. Tomorrow is a light day (abs) but hopefully its onward and upwards!! Thanks feel free to critique please!!  |

Yeah seems like you drop alot on those. Are they all working well for you?? Does the ALA help with the swole alot?? I love the ON Pro. Best choc. tasting protein I've tried!! How much do you spend?? I'm around 150 to 200 per month.
Thanks!! |

Yea close to what you spend. I get some things at cost, so that saves me money. I take the ALA from bulk(link I sent) because it has dextrose in it. It is just a creatine transport. I also put the glycerol fuel into the swole post w/o.
I am bigger and stronger than I have ever been. I could also attribute that to a consistent diet though. The most important supp is that Vibe, and the meta/thera/cyberplex. I have never felt so good. I take 1 oz. upon waking up(vibe), wait a bit then eat. |

Well went to the doctor for my check up and my weight on his scale is 192 lbs off 5lbs from my scale (187lbs). I guess I weigh more then I thought. But still about 14% bf. Oh well. Still that fact I lost my 40lbs from before cause I check the chart from when I seen him back in about mid september I weighed 230lbs. Today will be a light workout day (ABS) It good cause I need a light day. Work killed me last night/this morning.
Thanks!! |

Well I'm a lazt a$$. Had a hard tiring night/morning at work. I slept too long so I won't be able to do my workout tonight before I go to work.
 I'll bump my workouts down a day no problem. I'm thinking of moving my split around anyways as far as leg days and chest day. I'll do chest on Monday, Legs Tuesday, Abs Wed, Shoulders Thurs. and Back and Arms on Fri. What does everyone think about that??? Thanks!! |

Gary,
My logic behind this is to give me more of a rest between Chest and shoulders to give my deltoids more of a break. I don't know if it would be helpful or not. It's just a thought and I'll sleep on it more. Thanks!! |

Hey PM do you think i can take a look at what supps you take?
IT- you seem to have a good grasp on things, we seem to have the same goals as of right now, and we are about the same size, I will be following your journal closely. I read for bulking it is better to use heavier weights for less reps, I am now doing reps of 4-6, with weights I cant do the seventh time. Is what IT doing better or what ? |

Okay... I take(not including links this time
)Vibe by Eniva Metaplex/Theraplex/Cyberplex by body basics(synergy sport) Glycerol infusion by sci fit ALA by bulknutrition.com Swole V2 by syntrax(on w/o days) Micronized creatine monohydrate by Met-Rx(off days) Whey protein isolate. Check allthewhey.com or optimum's pro complex glucoseamine chondroitin w/ MSG Apex multi formua 3&4, 5 Flax seed oil I think thats it  Lower reps are for power. Powerlifters do lower reps, BB do higher reps. PL might be a lot stronger, but look how they look, and look how a BB looks. I keep my reps in the 6-12 range. |

Here is my workout for Back and Biceps I did on Friday. My workout was decent but problem is I did it with no sleep so energy kinda went quick and didn't do forearms like I wanted/Intended on doing. Another problem I'm having I'm not getting that satisfying "Pump" in my Biceps lately in my last several Bicep workouts so I feel like I'm kinda getting no where. I might just do Biceps to start with this week and see how it plays out. Also Still waiting on the weights for my DBs. Bent Over Rows 90x8 115x8 135x8 165x5 (failure, Personal Best by way far really pushed myself but paid for it later in the workout.) Pull Downs to Front 80x8 90x8 95x8 115x4 (failure. PB) Dumbell Row 30x10 30x10 40x10 40x10 Cambered Preacher Curls 60x8 60x8 65x8 Incline Dumbell Curls 25x8 25x8 30x7 (Failure) Hammer Curls 25x8 25x8 30x7 (failure) Please feel free to critique!! Thanks! |

hmmm dont act like that! you make me feel like a meanie now!
sorry! hehe Im just wondering why you are at the different weights but same reps. which means to me that on the lighter weights with the same reps your not hitting failure, which you SHOULD BE (not on wamup sets though). I can understand with not having the heavier weights. |
