Oh my, I don't think so PreMier. Unless it was a manly reaction out of fear that I might be stronger than him.

Yeah, I saw that about the car accident. It sounds like you are close to them.

NG - I don't know why I go so fast. Impatience probably.?!?!?!?
I am setting just about everything on that one too. How is the carb cycling going for you? Are you increasing your number of highs every week?

X Ring

I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother. Hope things workout for the best for both of you.
Awesome work ethic, keep on rockin!! I'm looking forward to the rest of this phase as well as the next one

calalily1972

Sorry to hear about your grandmother

I get my workout done in 1 hour too. Now tomorrow and next week...........that's when it will be a little bit longer

CourtQueen

Thanks all - Looks like grandma well go at any moment. We don't expect her here for too many more days. I just hope that it is sooner for her sake.

It feels like it has been a very very long week. I was not completely happy with this workout. I lowered way too soon on some of these and I just didn't have the motivation to push myself. I felt weak before I even did anything.

Playing a tourney tomorrow so not sure if I will get 6B in tomorrow. I most likely will do it on Sunday. Not sure because that won't give me an off day until Thursday.

I look forward to a good night sleep tonight.

X Ring

yeah 6b kinda kicked my ass today, keep it up and good luck in your tourney

CourtQueen

X - I certainly don't look forward to that one.

I forgot to mention that I'm getting quite the callouses on the hands.... So much for turning a guy on with soft hands.

Novo

Hello! I hear you there ... nasssty isn't it? And only going to get worse in Phase II with chins back in - I've actually seen mine getting better across Phase I whilst not chin'in!

I actually try and resist shaking hands etc, to avoid that whole "ewwww, what the hell are those rough growths on her hands" reaction. Mmmm, PRETTY girl?!

Best of luck with this week CQ

CourtQueen

Thanks Novo!

Well, took 2nd in yesterdays tourney so after 9 games I didn't quite have the energy for my 6B workout. I'm going to be moving everything back a day and do 6B tomorrow, then take a day off and resume the schedule on Wed vs my normal Tues.

My grandmother just passed away. I'm very greatful that it did not take any longer. Much to do today and I would like to just have a nice quiet off day and do the simple things in life.

nikegurl

So sorry about your grandmother. You're in my thoughts.

If you want to achieve things that others can't...

You have to do things that others won't.

PreMier

Yes, sorry to hear that But she is in a better place away from the pain. Good job on the tourney too!

I'm so sorry to hear about your Grandmother! She is in peace now.
Sorry sweetie

Sorry to hear about your Grandmother. Hope all is well

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.

CourtQueen

Thanks everyone. We are happy that it happened so fast and I do believe she is in a better place.

Ok, I decided to just skip 6B and move right into 7A so that I can get my schedule back. I now have a feeling that I know what you experienced NG.


7WG Pulldowns: 100x9x9x7 90x8x6 80 x8x8
7ug Barbell Rows: I started with 90 and that was pathetic so
80x6 70x8x7x8x8x8x8 (set with curls)
7Seated Leg Curls: 180x9x9x8x9x9x9x9 (the new machine)
7Barbell Curls: 50x6 40x7x6x6 30x9x9 (this is pathetic, I would think that I would have been able to do more at 50 by now )
7Seated Calf Raise: 145x9x9x9x9x8x8x8 (w/shrugs)
7Cable Hammer Curls: 30x8 20x8x8x7x7x7x6
7Barbell Shrugs: 90x9x8 80x9x8x8x8x8

probably about 90 minutes
I went in feeling pretty tired and had to concentrate to get through this and try and keep the weight up. But once I was done it was a big relief and I amazingly have a bit of energy tonight. However, I don't look forward to tomorrow

But all is good. I'll do it.

Novo

Of course you'll do it, noone doubted that Just think of w/o 8 one set at a time, it keeps it manageable that way. "Just this set, and I'm done", "OK, one more set", by the time your body realises your head is playing games ... you're through!

Come on into Phase II ... the water's warm. Week 1 is lovely so far

PreMier

Good workout CQ Alas.. phase two is but a week away for me.

Thanks Novo, I'm so ready for II.

PreMier - I can't wait to see your last part of I.

Ok, today I got thru my first two exercises and really thought there was no way in hell I was going to finish. My body was definitely feeling done at that time but somehow I got thru it. After my body was completely..... ass to the grass TIRED (not sleepy tired).

7BB Squats: 135x8x8x8x8x8x7 125x8 (set with Military Press)
7Military DB Press: 35x8x7x6 32.5x6 30x6 27.5x7x6 ( )

7Cable Crossovers: 40 x8x7 30 x9x8x8x8x9(set with vbar)
7VBar Pressdown: 50x8x8x6 40x8x9x7
THen I thought I was truly truly done
7Incline BB Press: 70x6 65x6 55x8x7x7x7x6 (set with ext)
7Leg Ext: Sissy Squats (these are frickin HARD) with 10lbs 8x8x8 ext. 90x8x8x8x8 (not full rom, short concentration because my knees haven't felt the same since doing these)
This just sucked ....
7DB CG Bench: 65x7x6 55x7x7x7x6x6


Well, Sat and Sunday is it. I'm not even going to think about it. I can't even think past it. TP should have had fricken triplets, psychotic pain loving too smart for his own good male.......

PreMier

That workout looks great! Doing it all at once like that definately has its down side. Today for me(6) was a serious PITA. I will probably toss down 5k cals(a day) this weekend just to help prepare for next week.

I had a blister on my finger after this....

The first two exercises were tough as hell to get through but after that every thing seemed fine.

Bummed I missed 8b ....
Mother's Day I couldn't get a moment to myself and then I got the stomach bug.

So today I started Phase2....

3 Incline DB Bench: 35x8 40x6 x3 35x3
3 BB Bench: 95x6x6 85x6

Do we have to do pics? I thought we only had to do the beginning and end. The 4 weeks ones only if we wanted to.

I might do some tomorrow morning but the farmer tan is horrid...

Nice workout as always, CQ! Yes...post more pics.
