My Dad is from PA. I've been going to Penn State home games (dad has season tickets) every year since I was about 4. They arent the team they used to be, but I'll always be a die hard fan.

Thanks for dropping by YM. You toss around some pretty good weight yourself.

LOL, I said the same thing. It doesn't matter though, Michigan fans are always bitter. I mean c'mon.....Lions and tigers and wolverines oh my (no need to even metion Spartans).

**JerseyDevil** · 08-10-2004, 02:03 PM

You know what though? There are a lot of pretenders, but Ohio State/Michigan is the greatest rivalry in college football. I wouldn't want it any other way.

Powerwalk for 50 minutes.

**Rocco32** · 08-10-2004, 04:45 PM

Are you cutting?

**JerseyDevil** · 08-10-2004, 05:02 PM

Hey Rock. No not really. At my age especially, I feel the need to do some sort of cardio on a regular basis. Back in my younger days, I ran 30-35 miles a week. So doing an elliptical trainer for 30 minutes or walking a few miles seems like nothing in comparison.

**Rocco32** · 08-10-2004, 05:11 PM

Cool. Great pic! I've decided to do cardio on a reg basis too for health reasons.

First time trying more then 245 on incline. Did 255 x 3 fairly easy, but missed on the 4th rep. Spotter helped thru about 1" mid-way. I did lock it out on my own, so I'm giving myself a 3/4 rep

**Rocco32** · 08-11-2004, 11:49 AM

Yeah, real strong there! Some impressive lifts

**JerseyDevil** · 08-11-2004, 06:12 PM

Thanks guys. Pressing movements seem to be my forte right now. Ironic because in my first several years of lifting, my bench and incline were easily my worst lifts.

Box Squats
135 x 8
155 x 8
205 x 5
235 x 5
265 x 3
285 x 1
135 x 20
Box set to a couple of inches below parallel. Due to the width of the box, my stance was wider then what I've tried before, so it felt a bit weird.

SLDL
135 x 8
185 x 8
205 x 8
225 x 8
Wanted to try these on leg day and use them as a hamstring exercise. Just tried them for the first time in a long time on Monday, so I was happy with today's workout.

Leg Extensions
150 x 12
210 x 11
255 (stack) x 10

**yellowmoomba** · 08-12-2004, 05:06 PM

Damn I love your new sig Pre!

Not sure what you think the wink meant... but I have an idea. Nope, no 'assistance' at all. In truth my bench has leveled out, but since I'm focused on squats and deadlifts, those are going up.

They are new to me also YM. I see you have an excellent squat. I think you'll find box squats will improve your overall numbers. When you come down and sit on the box, your body has a natural tendency to relax, unlike a regular squat where you are tense the whole ROM. It's like sitting down on a small stool with weight on your back, relaxing for a sec then standing up. Really effective.

Cool! Thanks for the tip. I'll try them in a couple day!!

Bench Press
135 x 8

270 x 3
265 x 3

Close Grip Incline Press
135 x 8
155 x 8
185 x 8
205 x 8
Still a relatively new movement for me. I like these, but once I tried CG declines, I feel the declines are superior as a tricep exercise. I have been having problems with my left elbow (tendonitis), and today the CG inclines really caused it to flare up. Will be going back to flat and decline close grips...

One Arm DB Lying Extensions
20 x 12/12
25 x 10/10
30 x 10/10
35 x 10/10
40 x 10/10
Took it easy since left elbow/forearm area is very tender.

Pushdowns
60 x 12
80 x 10
90 x 8
100 x 5
