Hey SF,
Good lifts dude! Be patient with the cast! Come on... all in due time... you're only 20 ish... you got PLENTY of time to hit the even bigger weights. I can't imagine ANYONE would give you crap about your bench. Hell... ALL of your lifts are great. I'd like to see THEM pull a 600 dead... HA!

-Dan

Saturday Fever · 06-04-2004, 12:54 PM

Yeah, about 12 days to go before this thing comes off. Then I figure a good week or two to get used to life with 2 feet again. And then it's time to get nuts.

Saturday Fever · 06-04-2004, 01:51 PM

Well, I'm a total gimp with graphics. If someone can take this avatars original image (in my gallery) and make it avatar-able, I'd really appreciate it. Otherwise, this is the best I could come up with.

ncgirl21 · 06-04-2004, 03:44 PM

I have no idea how to do that, Jen always has to do mine, check with her though- I'm sure she'll be able to either tell you how or do it for ya!!

Saturday Fever · 06-04-2004, 04:35 PM

Thanks Andrea.

OK so it's poll time for the lovely ladies of IM! From my pics it becomes apparent I have no hair! So which do you lovely ladies prefer:

1) Short, neat hair and a trim beard.
2) Shaved head and goatee.

My hair is on the brink of needing a fresh shave, so I have to decide fast. Thanks!

shortstuff · 06-04-2004, 04:40 PM

short neat hair, it is fun to play with

Saturday Fever · 06-04-2004, 04:42 PM

Short, neat hair with a beard or goatee?

shortstuff · 06-04-2004, 04:49 PM

goatee, beard is too old manish, goatees are hot

ncgirl21 · 06-07-2004, 12:55 PM

Depends on the guy IMO. I think bald heads are sexy on a lot of guys but if their bald a goatee is a MUST. But, I'm also a fan of hair- long or short, I don't really care as long as it's pullable!!

ME Bench Day

As I am castless, I decided to return to some usual work. I'm still wrapped nicely and still cant do squats or deadlifts for another 2 wees, but I will improvise. The cast, for the record, was BBQ'd on Saturday and pictures are forthcoming.

Decline Bench (extra close grip)
45x5
95x3
135x3
155x3
185x3
205x3
225x3
255x1
275x1
295x1

3 Board Decline Press (wide grip)
315x1
335x1

4 Board Decline Press
345x1

6 Board Press
365x1
375x0

4" Decline Rack Lockouts
6 sets of 3 with 375

Close-grip Bench (no arch, no leg drive)
5 sets of 2 with 205

Upright Rows/DB Uprights Superset (supersets are for punks, these things suck)
145/70x8
165/80x7
185/100x4/3

That was that. Good day I thought. Supersets are for the birds. I don't think I'll ever do those stupid things again. Or maybe it's that I hate uprights. Or maybe a combination of the two. Who knows.

And for the record, it took me 24 minutes to get through this morning.

Sapphire · 06-07-2004, 04:54 PM

Awesome WO SF!! I am so frustrated with my bench press. I can't get higher... I am not sure what to do!

As far as your hair I say SHAVE IT!! I LOVE a big muscular HOT bald guy with some facial hair! Please see pic of my bf in my gallery.

NO full beard though... a goatee is good!

Saturday Fever · 06-07-2004, 04:59 PM

Your bench will get there. Triceps, triceps, triceps! And thank you very much. I think the general idea favors the goatee and there's a tossup about the hair.

shortstuff · 06-07-2004, 09:25 PM

Be gentle SF don't hurt that pretty body of yours so you can't dance and play

Guess what I am going to be in Roseville and Folsom on Sunday

Wish I had more time and I would totally try and hang with yah

WIll be thinking about our hans and franz though

Saturday Fever · 06-08-2004, 12:42 AM

No time? For me even? Well then I insist you promise next time we get to at least have lunch.

shortstuff · 06-08-2004, 12:53 AM

k sounds like a plan stan

I wish I could but I have so many I am going to go see it is going to be one of those trips. You should drive into the city sometime

Saturday Fever · 06-08-2004, 01:17 AM

Tell me when and it's no problem.

Have a good night hotstuff.

shortstuff · 06-08-2004, 01:34 AM

What do you mean about the triceps?

shortstuff · 06-08-2004, 10:26 AM

Wake up mister sac hottie

Saturday Fever · 06-08-2004, 10:52 AM

Morning lovely ladies!

Sapphire, strengthening your triceps will increase your bench. That's all I meant.

And good morning hotstuff, final over with?

shortstuff · 06-08-2004, 10:55 AM

Part one of the finals is over, only two more and the 21 page presentation to go.

after tomorrow I will be ready to party!!!!!!!!!! Question, do you work or go to school???

Saturday Fever · 06-08-2004, 10:59 AM

I own a company that does investing for small businesses and their employees. Sort of like 401k, but we aren't a pre-tax deduction. I am a college dropout. Went for about 4 semesters and had to heed the call of the dotcoms.

shortstuff · 06-08-2004, 11:02 AM

Oh that is cool, I know a lot of people who have they are more successful is striking out on their own. You follow to your own drummer.

But that is sweet that you own your own company. People would die to be in your position.

Saturday Fever · 06-08-2004, 11:05 AM

Squat (rehab) Day

Well, this is the recipe for about two weeks.

Squats (narrow stance)
45x3
95x1
105x1
135x1
155x1
185x1
205x1
225x1 (4 singles at this weight)

Foot wasn't hurting or anything, but I was real hesitant. Did singles with 225. Hamstrings are very unhappy about not being allowed to squat for awhile.

SLDL (high/low)
10 sets of 1 with 415

Hamstring Curls
4 sets of 6 with 250

Bentover BB Rows
3 sets of 5 with 275
2 sets of 5 with 295

Chins
2 sets of 10 with +45

Slowly but surely.

shortstuff · 06-08-2004, 11:25 AM

Your workouts are killer. I will definitely have to try them sometime

M.J.H. · 06-08-2004, 05:40 PM

Damn SF, good luck getting back to 100%. Definitely good to see you taking it easy. I have a tendency to try and fight through injuries.

Really?? Hmmm I thought bench was mostly chest....

Saturday Fever · 06-08-2004, 07:37 PM

When you bench with your elbows out with a bodybuilding form, your chest's primary function will be to get the bar the first 4" or so off your chest at which point your shoulders have reached their end position and your triceps must push the weight the rest of the way.

Sapphire · 06-08-2004, 07:41 PM

Interesting, makes sense. I did triceps tonight... shoulders too. My shoulders are sore already...

shortstuff · 06-09-2004, 08:06 AM

Morning my california hottie

How things haning over there. Oh and I so do not believe a guy like you is single. I think the girls must have something wrong with their heads over there
