Deads ReHab...

DeadBolt · 07-13-2005, 11:57 AM

Today was a damn kick ass day!!!!! I have been eating an insane amount of carbs all day logn before my cut just so i can get awsome w/o's LOL.

Also got some chalk for my deads....that shit is awsome!!! Last week I used straps and barely got 265x6 on my rack deads. Today that was cake! It helped on the rows as well!

Back:
Rack Deads
225*6
245*6
265*6 PR

~~could have gone 285 but I'll save that for next week!!!! The chalk did WONDERS!!! I never once second guessed my grip with it I was so surprised!

BB B/o Row
105*14
115*10
125*10
135*8
~~haven't done em in a while so wasn't sure the weight to use. Next time I'll warm up better and start heavier.

HS High Row
140*15
180*10*2
180*8

CG Cable Row SS'ed w/ Stiff Arm Pulldown

Overall a DAMN good w/o!!! My back was TOAST after those supersets! My back was just so pumped the entire time and my bi's were strong through the begining but died out fast with all those rows. Come time for hammer curls I had shot my load already LOL! Very pleased with todays w/o!

Thanks for the kind words bud!

Never done DB skull crushers? They are pretty good. Any form of pressing movement or tri movement that is locked into the same plain of motion kills my shoulder. So I cant do BB presses of any sort or anything like that. I need both hands to be able to move freely. Give em a try one day...just keep your elbows tucked in and pulled back. Start light they are harder then most think.

Yea I am ussually pretty good about pulling with the elbows and I didn't even feel my bi's during the back w/o till my last few supersets when I was so tired. Those damn BB curls on an Oly Bar really fried me out. Especially with those forced reps and slow negatives with the 85!

FishOrCutBait · 07-13-2005, 12:18 PM

I got ya on that, bro! Slow negatives just BURN em... So how are you?

Seanp156 · 07-13-2005, 02:26 PM

Nice looking back/bi workout there Deadbolt. That routine looks like something I'd like... I never actually done rack deadlifts before, I'm thinking of maybe switching over to them for a bit... I got a question though. On rack deads, do you move your legs much since the ROM is decreased, or do you move you legs like you would during a full dead and go just until you hit the rack?

Archangel · 07-13-2005, 10:04 PM

Awesome w/o's BRother Bolt!!! Hows the shoulder now?

Heya bud glad to see ya in here!

Yea that w/o wasn't planned at all...I just went in and made shit up as I went along LOL.

Its good to switch up your deads every so often. Really keeps the weights growing. Like now I'll switch over to full deads starting next week I think. As for moving your legs. Id depends on where you set the rack pins at. I set it at just below my knees so there isn't much leg work. So when you start your legs are just slightly bent. Just grab the bar and give it hell like a regular dead. Be sure not to lock your legs out to fast otherwise the weight will overwhelm your back and you'll fall forwards. Just keep it all one constant motion and you'll be fine. Then on the way down just keep it to a controlled drop but don't let the bar slam to hard into the rack. People really hate that LOL. Once you set up the rack and get into position its pretty simple to see how you are going to be moving with you legs and back and everything. So just set it up and you'll realize the ROM and the technique pretty much.

Heya brotha!!!!! Shoulder is doing good! Much better then last week. It was burning during that back w/o LOL but its just because all those sets had very little rest in between them.

DeadBolt · 07-14-2005, 09:46 AM

Well yesterday I worked later then ever LOL. Went in at 2pm didn'tget out till 12am!! All the drivers called out sick so I was the only one driving....had patients all backed up clear across the map.

I slept in nice and late today b/c its my day off!!!!!!

My body is so sore though its crazy. That back w/o nailed me hard!! I wont be going to the gym till like 3 today so I have time to rest up. Guess I'll just go do all my errands before the gym today.

DeadBolt · 07-14-2005, 10:32 AM

Just read this in my email thought you guys may like it (AA, Riss, Fish):

Does evil exist?"

The university professor challenged his students with this
question.
"Did God create everything that exists?"
A student bravely replied, "Yes, he did!"
"God created everything?" The professor asked.
"Yes, sir," the student replied.

The professor answered, "If God created everything, then God created evil since evil exists, and according to the principal that our works define who we are, then God is evil."

The student became quiet before such an answer. The professor was quite pleased with himself and boasted to the students that he had proven once more that Christian faith was a myth.

Another student raised his hand and said, "Can I ask you a question professor?"
"Of course," replied the professor .
The student stood up and asked, "Professor, does cold exist?"
"What! kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you never
been cold?" The students snickered at the young man's question.

The young man replied, "In fact sir, cold does not exist. According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is in reality the absence of heat.
Heat is what makes a body or matter have or transmit energy. Absolute zero (-460 degrees F) is the total absence of heat; all matter becomes inert and incapable of reaction at that temperature. Cold does not exist.

We have created this word to describe how we feel if we have no heat."

The student continued, "Professor, does darkness exist?"
The professor responded, "Of course it does."

The student replied, "Once again you are wrong, sir, darkness does not exist either. Darkness is in reality the absence of light. Light we can study, but not darkness. In fact, we can use Newton's prism to break white light into many colors and study the various wavelengths of each color. You cannot measure complete darkness. A simple ray of light can break into a world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you know how dark a certain space is?
You measure the amount of light present. Isn't this correct?

Darkness is a term used by man to describe what happens when there is not light
present."

Finally, the young man asked the professor, "Sir, does evil exist?"

Now uncertain, the professor responded, "Of course, as I have already said. We see it every day. It is in the daily example of man's inhumanity to man. It is in the multitude of crime and violence everywhere in the world. These manifestations are nothing else but evil."

To this the student replied, "Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it does not exist unto itself! . Evil is simply the a absence of God. It is just like darkness and cold, a word that man has created to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil.

Evil is not like faith or love that exist, just as does light and heat. Evil is the result of what happens when man does not have God's love present in his heart. It's like the cold that
comes when there is no heat or the darkness that comes when there is no light."
The professor sat down.
The young man's name .........Albert Einstein

DeadBolt · 07-15-2005, 05:14 PM

Heya fellas thanks for stoppin in!!!

I did legs and shoulders yesterday but didn't write anything down. They wer ebot half asses b/c i couldn't do a full fledged delt w/o b/c I didn't wanna hurt it and legs I had to much work to do last night so couldn't afford to get tired.

Did some DB MP's, side laterals, front raises, b/o rear delts, leg press, leg ext's, llc's, and sitting leg curls. Nothing crazy.

Washnight was horrible. Cleaned the basement out...had to lift the OLD cast iron lockers out of the basement and into a dump truck. We worked non stop for 3 hours. I am so damn sore right now its crazy. I don't have much time to post right now or visit journals but tonight I will. Gotta run yall!!!

PS: FISH!!!!!!!! You beast you LOL loving the farmers tan!!!

	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...
