Jersey's "Me Too" Journal

JerseyDevil · 10-06-2007, 06:37 PM

10/6/07

Squats
135 x 8
155 x 8
225 x 16 cowabunga!

TT if you see this, you inspired me bro. Probably would have stopped at 14, but in the back of my mind I wanted to catch up with you

.

Deadlifts (35 lb plate's)
115 x 8
185 x 8
255 x 5
335 x 3

Really think using the longer rom is the ticket for me increasing my deads. Much harder then using using 45's. I will do this for at least 4 weeks, then try regular plates.

Alt DB Curl's
20's x 15
25's x 15
30's x 15

Elbows still borderline. Easing back using high reps.

Elliptical Machine
Cardio program, 30 minutes

Brutus_G · 10-06-2007, 06:43 PM

Good man hitting that cardio and those 16 rep squats!

yellowmoomba · 10-07-2007, 09:49 AM

Double D · 10-07-2007, 10:10 AM

Incline Bench Press
135 x 8

185 x 8
205 x 11

DB Bench Press
50's x 12

100's x 8

Wide Front Pulldowns

.

90 x 15

Mow grass, hike with dog in park for 1:10 minutes.

Legs are feeling strong YM. I finally got over the problem knee. Learned not to go heavy on squat, just higher rep stuff... and my thighs are getting bigger

Brother JD, Fantastic w/o's my Friend!!! I DEFINATLY see 20 reppers in your NEAR future!!! Glad your elbows are feeling better, I'm easing into Flat Benches slowly myself w/my shoulder an all!!! Keep it up my Friend, inspiration all around!!!

yellowmoomba · 10-13-2007, 06:55 AM

Taking some time off ?

PreMier · 10-13-2007, 11:34 AM

Triple Threat · 10-14-2007, 08:13 AM

Maybe he just got a little busy with life.

JD

PreMier · 10-17-2007, 07:38 PM

i know your logging in, and reading.. whats the dealio

Triple Threat · 10-21-2007, 06:58 PM

OK, JD, I'm getting back in the posting saddle. You coming back soon?

katt · 10-22-2007, 09:04 AM

Maybe he took another trip???

JerseyDevil · 10-22-2007, 07:27 PM

Thank you everyone for your concern.

Elbow pain just got to be too much to bear. Working out sucks if it is always painful. Decided to take off as much time as it takes. Not sure if I will ever be able to hit it hard again, but I think I will

.

I still do lower body, squats and deadlifts, but nothing that involves bending the elbow.

Been very busy lately and kinda depressed to post. Selfish of me, yes. Thought maybe it would be a good idea to take a break from IM and hardcore working out. You know what I mean?

yellowmoomba · 10-22-2007, 07:55 PM

Good to see you are OK

Squating and deads ARE hardcore lifting

Rest up! I'm about to take a week off too pretty soon. A week or two off would probably be good for most of us .....but we are too hard headed to do it.

Take it EZ..................

PreMier · 10-22-2007, 08:29 PM

i took 2 years off.. but hey its good to be back, there are a lot of great people here and a lot of good support

I know exactly what you mean... sometimes you just want a break from it all.

Brutus_G · 10-24-2007, 02:41 PM

NOOOOOOOOOO don't leave me. Hope it gets better JD i know how much that shit can suck especially when you've been in the iron game as long as you have.

Archangel · 10-27-2007, 05:56 PM

Take care BRother JD, I am having to let my journal go for a while, life has decided to get insane for now, but I will be checkin in when I can to cheer you on my Friend!!!

I made an appt with a orthopedic doc next week, but you know how that goes. PT or reduce the weight used. We shall see though.

Tonight I did do:

Bench Press
135 x 8
155 x 8
185 x 12

DB Incline
50's x 8
70's x 15

Squats
135 x 10
185 x 10
225 x 10

Front Pulldowns
90 x 8
105 x 8
135 x 8

DB Curls
20's x 10
25's x 10
30's x 10

... and at the moment, elbows feel good.

Brutus_G · 11-01-2007, 08:17 PM

Hey buddy you just keep those elbows good and healthy no one who matters will call you a pussy since you'll still be squatting, dead lifting, pull ups, and so on.

PreMier · 11-01-2007, 10:40 PM
