If your single you must be fighting them off with sticks!!

Oh, and Good Morning!

Saturday Fever · 06-09-2004, 10:53 AM

If I was fighting them off with sticks, they surely wouldn't be as gorgeous as you lovely ladies. But sadly, I'm not fighting anyone off, gorgeous or otherwise.

Rare Lunchtime Bench Assistance Day

Morning meetings. Yay. Here goes my abbreviated and yet insane accessory work.

6" Lockouts
8 sets of 3 with 410

BB Military Press (sitting on a swiss ball

)
3 sets of 4 with 155
2 sets of 6 with 135 (holy no balance, batman)

Bench of Death
1 set of 142 with 105 (that's a BoD PR)

Saturday Fever · 06-10-2004, 11:48 AM

Deadlift Rehab Day

Figured that since my Squat and Dead days were going to be real light for awhile that a rest day wasn't necessary. Plus, I woke up real early and was wide awake, and drinking coffee is only cool for so long.

Sumo Deadlifts
95x3
95x3
135x3
155x1
185x1
205x1
225x1 (4 sets of singles)

Foot actually started aching a bit at the end, nothing severe, just a small throb to tell me "stop."

Hypers (doubled minis)
1 set of 6

Ankle was not pleased with this. Decided to not do anything else that required stressing the ankle or pushing out on feet.

Good AMs (feet right next to each other, back arched madly)
4 sets of 6 with 155

Good day.

ME Bench Day

Well, this makes a solid week of training. I will enjoy the weekend.

Close-grip Incline
45x5
95x3
115x3
135x3
165x1
185x1
205x1
225x1
245x0 (incline eats balls

)

Dips
8 sets of 2 with +105
1 set of 26 with +40

Band Pushdowns
3 sets of 50

V-Bar Pulldowns
3 sets of 12 with 210

Rocco32 · 06-11-2004, 11:34 AM

Awesome w/o! I can't imagine doing Dips with that much weight! Hows the ankle after this week?

Saturday Fever · 06-11-2004, 11:38 AM

It is feeling better. I can walk around all day and it doesn't hurt any. It got a little mad doing deads yesterday but that disappeared quick. I'm going to leave it wrapped and be cautious for another 2 weeks since I took the cast off a week early.

Sapphire · 06-11-2004, 11:47 AM

I gotta agrre with the other girls.. I dont understand what is wrong with those CA chicks!!

You are a cutie!

Oh yeah! Hi !!!!

Saturday Fever · 06-11-2004, 11:52 AM

Hey bebe.

Actually, much to my delight, I have a date tomorrow. Must be all the good karma you beautiful ladies are throwing my way.

Sapphire · 06-11-2004, 11:54 AM

ncgirl21 · 06-11-2004, 01:15 PM

I bet she's a hottie!! Where are you taking her?

Saturday Fever · 06-11-2004, 02:17 PM

Dinner at a Jazz club type place.

They have jazz bands play and sometimes have Sinatra-style singers on a stage and it's surrounded by tables for folks eating food and having cocktails.

Sapphire · 06-11-2004, 02:36 PM

Have fun!!!!!!!!

Saturday Fever · 06-11-2004, 02:40 PM

She really is gorgeous. Stands about 5'4 (I'm 6'4

) and weighs (I'm guessing) about 110. She also deadlifts 245lb, works out in the mornings when I do and told me she started making mornings a regular thing after she saw me. Silly me. Had I any clue what I was doing, I would have talked to her much sooner.

Sapphire · 06-11-2004, 03:11 PM

Awesome!!! Have a good time Sweetie! We want all the details on Sunday!

Thats so pimp. There used to be a place around here called The Cabanna Club like that. Sadly they went under, and nothing has risin to take its spot.

Do I smell a business venture..?

Saturday Fever · 06-14-2004, 02:18 PM

Afternoon all!

So the weekend was well spent. Date went well. Ate some awesome seafood, listened to some really good jazz band. Their drummer was absolutely incredible. Talked forever. Drove to nearby Lake Oroville (which is really pretty despite the shithole that is the city of Oroville surrounding it) to watch the sunrise and left her tucked in sometime around 6:30ish.

I'm cooking dinner for her tonight.

PreMier · 06-14-2004, 05:24 PM

Whats on the menu? I hope you can cook!

Saturday Fever · 06-14-2004, 05:30 PM

I'm going to throw tritips on the BBQ. They've been marinating in Basque Norte sauce since lunch. As for side dishes, I don't have a clue and plan to scramble through the grocery store after work.

PreMier · 06-14-2004, 05:34 PM

Asparagus goes good with tri-tip. Toss some on a cooking sheet, with some kosher salt(tiny bit), some olive oil, pepper, adn then some of that stringy parmisan to melt on top. Looks pretty, and tastes great.

Saturday Fever · 06-14-2004, 06:07 PM

Hrm, I'm not an asparagus fan, but that sounds like a badass side. I'm going to give that a run.

Saturday Fever · 06-15-2004, 11:08 AM

Squat Day

Life is good. Trying out some new training ideas for a while.

Warmup Squats (no box)
sets of 3 up to 315 (all triples)

Box Squats
345x1
375x1
405x1 (no pain whatsoever)

Called squats early. No pain or discomfort at all.

Conventional Rack Pulls (plates about 8" up)
sets of 2 up to 465 (all doubles)

And that was that. This idea will work much better when I can go balls out on the squats, but I plan to try that next week.

Monolith · 06-15-2004, 11:20 AM

Nice squats!

Careful with that ankle, next week... youve only been out of your cast for what, like 2 weeks now?

Are you just using a wrap on your ankle? Ya might want to try an air cast... i think you can buy them at CVS. I used one when i screwed up my ankles a few years ago, theyre nearly as solid as a real cast, but removable. You can walk in them rather easily too. Might be good during squats, so you dont roll your ankle.

Saturday Fever · 06-15-2004, 11:23 AM

Yeah, I'll definitely play it by feel. I was happy that after about 13 sets of triples and a few sets of singles on the box that it felt as good as normal. It could be sore as hell tomorrow, so I'll definitely be taking it easy and letting the foot and ankle do the dictating.

Sapphire · 06-15-2004, 12:22 PM

What a sweetie you are...making her dinner! Very romantic, she is a lucky girl. HAve fun Hun!

M.J.H. · 06-15-2004, 12:28 PM

Good luck with that dinner, I am sure that things will go well.

Squats look awesome man, nice to see a good solid pain-free session. Probably good for you mentally as well. Rack pulls also look solid.

Saturday Fever · 06-15-2004, 12:41 PM

The dinner was good. Food is always good. We went to the movies afterwards to watch Harry Potter. I'm going to go to the movies again tonight so I can actually see the movie.

Sapphire · 06-15-2004, 01:23 PM

lots of necking going on, I take it???

Saturday Fever · 06-15-2004, 01:42 PM

ncgirl21 · 06-15-2004, 02:18 PM

Let me know how the new Harry Potter is? I always thought I'd hate those movies but my brother talked me into watching all of 'em and I actually like them.

Glad you enjoyed your date!! Do you think you'll be seeing her again soon?

Hows the ankle after this week? 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...
