That was very good of you to eat the Bannana Split. It would have been gone in less than 5 secs. here in the house.

PreMier · 05-05-2004, 09:53 PM

That is to be expected. You were on vacation, and now just getting back into the swing of things. Just keep up the bulk, and I am positive that strength will be up in no time

JLB001 · 05-05-2004, 10:16 PM

ok....You can have bad lifts for this week only! Next week....Must be better!

Ya know what I hate about switching gyms? (not that I do this often, been at the same 24 hr fitness over 2 yrs)

Is that the weights always seem so damn different! When I had my trainer and was training at a different gym, my lifts were alot more. Now, I think they are like shit! Craig says it has to do with the pulleys and stuff. But damn, db are db...right?

Hey GW, looking good in here! Good luck with the Bulk, I always have mental problems with bulking but I'm staying with mine this time. (Need to make it cleaner though

) Just trying to get an idea of your workouts. What are your Rest Intervals and are you planning on doing higher reps for the bulk or is that just getting back into it after 2 weeks off?

Rock,

I'm just getting back into the swing of things for the first 2 weeks and then i will get seriuos. This is my firsttime for a bulk but i will probably do 5 sets with reps running 10 , 8, 6. 4 and the last set I'm kind of up in th eair but at least 10 maybe a few more. I really like to pump up the muscle on the last set.

My rest intervals this week have been virtually none but when I get tothe real stuff I will probably do at least 1 minute between sets and several between exercises. How are your rest intervals ? I need to check out some of the other bulking journals in the next few days to get a better idea .

What are your Rest Intervals and are you planning on doing higher reps for the bulk or is that just getting back into it after 2 weeks off? I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...
