TT and Stewart: Yes he does. He drove me to 20 reps squats, and has motivated me to deadlift more. I concede before we start, he has super pull strength.

I think I have him on push strength though, although his DB inclines kick ass .

You got me on the push exercises for sure......... The REAL competition is to "do one more than you did last time"

8/29/07

BB Incline Press
135 x 8
155 x 8
185 x 6
205 x 5
225 x 7 (and a 1/2 )

Smiley because my elbows still hurt, yet I increased over last week.

CG Bench
135 x 15
155 x 15
175 x 13

Worked in with a buddy, who was doing high rep CG's. What can I say? It's good to feel that lactic acid build up sometimes.

HS Shoulder Press
100 x 8
190 x 8
240 x 7
r/p
240 x 3
r/p
240 x 2

Pec Dec Flyes
105 x 12
135 x 10
150 x 8

Iced each elbow 15 minutes and took 800 mg Advil.

Yeah, pains hurt.....

funny,, every time I see your journal I think of the movie "coyote ugly" because the gals name is jersey... haha

I think I've watched that 10 times or more,,, along with "save the last dance" ... my hubby always says... my gawd, are you watching it again???" hahahahaha

That pains good JD unless of course its elbow lol maybe you should stop all upper push movements for a week then come back.

My vote is you take a shot of epinephrine and demerol and get after it!

But really, you should consider dropping weight (considerably) and increasing reps (considerably) and take it moderately easy for a week (at minimum) or two. Just something to consider.

Very profound Katt... I have noticed that .

Brutus and MB: Yeah, I know. I took off a week while on vacation just 2 weeks ago, but the elbows still hurt. If it doesn't get better in the next week or two, it is a hiatus for me.

8/30/07

Rack Pulls (mid shin)
135 x 5
225 x 3
275 x 3
335 x 3
365 x 2
410 x 1 PR

Added a whopping 5 lbs to the bar. Didn't want to repeat the ugly 425 x 0 incident last week.

45 Degree Leg Press
320 x 6
410 x 6
500 x 11 PR

One rep increase over last week

Wide Lat Pulldowns
75 x 15
120 x 15
150 x 8
165 x 8

Had to cut it short tonight. Short and sweet, happy with the PR's.

500 on the leg press?? Do we get to see pic's or what?????

Come on..... I did pic's .... so can you.. really

I have never seen JD..

Everytime I think of him, a little red devil pops up in my head..

Gotta agree with that. A shot of demerol and it's lights out.

The old timers should remember I used a flexed arm shot in my avi, but with my face cropped off.

My bf is too high to post current pics. Not a bb'er, more a weak powerlifter.

Oh yeah, I officially announced in Stewart's journal I will hit a 425 conventional deadlift by the age of 52.... which in my case is 12/24/2007.

Haha........I used to know the feeling JD! You are the man, no matter how you feel!

What are your arms measuring? Look like 18-19.
