LOL - Actually, I went to your journal to make sure. I said something to TP in the forum on that. It should be worded differently. I totally didn't read it that way......
Oh well, it was a nice easy day at least You are doing awesome Novo! Stop scaring all those boys out of the gym now. ![]() |

You described it perfectly in the TP forum, that was my interpretation exactly. And while it seems stupid now, knowing what was meant, I think the wording was fuzzy. Which is odd, you know, being the legal sort ... you'd think he'd be rather pedantic about expressing himself more carefully
![]() Digging myself a dangerous hole here? maybe so, but I'll risk itI'm trying a new attitude at the gym CQ - it's called Bite Me and I'm now TRYING to scare the boys! Bastards didn't want to play, so now I'll blody well give them a reason! Glad you had a good weekend chicky! |

![]() Ok, maybe I just haven't had the privilege of reading enough weight lifting literature which gives dropset definitions. BEGESUS SMARTASS |

so, on my way to the gym and there is a suv in front of me with the company logo "Twin Peaks". I had to laugh. I couldn't figure out if that was a sign enforcing the fact that I should continue down the road to the gym or to think twice about it and possibly just head back to work...... I went to the gym..... Deadlifts kicked my ass
Today Back (+ denotes the dropset) 3 WG Pullups: Assisted (-10 from last time) x6 + 8 (w/+40%); x6+7; (add to +)x5+6 3 CG Pulldown: 100x6 +75x9 90x7 + 60x8 90x7 + 60x8 3 Deadlifts: 135x6 + 75x9 135x6 + 75x7 135x6 + 75x7 (This plain wore me out.) 3 1 Arm DB Row: 40x9 + 22.5x9 40x8 + 22.5x8 40x7 + 22.5x8 (right) 40x6 + 22.5x6 (left just last set that left couldn't keep up) I'm thinking of doing legs tomorrow and shoulders Sat. I just don't think I can do shoulders after today..... |

6/9 I had absolutely no energy and going into week 4 of this 2nd phase just was horrible. Doing dropsets in this way just about killed me. I had to drop my weight on everything in order to get the 1/2-1/3 reps in...
Incline DB 40x7 1/2sx6 20x10 40x6 35x2 1/2s 0 20x6 35x6 1/2sx3 17.5x Flat BB Press 85x7 1/2sx8 22.5sx8 (I used dbs here for the drop) 85x4 1/2s0 22.5x6 75x6 1/2s4 22.5x4 Low xover cables 30x8 1/2sx8 10x8 30x8 1/2s0 10x8 30x6 1/2s0 10x8 Standing Calf 180x8 1/2sx8 90x10 180x8 1/2sx8 90x8 165x8 1/2sx8 90x8 Skipped Seated Calf Well this was the only day I got in for Phase 2 week 4... I don't know how the hell you guys do the drop sets this way with the partial reps in between.... I hated it. I felt like I had to drop the weight significantly in order to get through 3 working sets this way. I proceeded to get a triple whammy after this.... First a cold, then Aunt Flo, and the some stomach virus..... And of course the need to throw a bday party in the mists of it all ![]() |

Hi ya'all!!!
I've been really bad about getting my butt in here. With the big brother watching at work these days I've thought it best to post here at home..... however I never seem to get on at home. Ugh - I just got back from a volleyball tourney in the mountains.... YIKES - not enough sunscreen. More motivation to get in the gym though. I refuse to look my age As I posted in the TPPT program I'm done. I will post the last workouts that I did in Phase 3 but I hate Phase 3. There is no way I can get those workouts in because they take me way too long. And Nike/Pitboss..... Manhattan Beach here I come end of July officially. I'll drop you both a line because we all have to get together!!!!! More to come.... I MISS YOU ALL TOO... And Novo, I can't wait to catch up on your journal, funny woman. ![]() |
