TriZZle305 · 06-09-2005, 07:21 PM

Arch angel Its been going great.. been gaining weight and size and its not even my intention so thats always good

Monkey Man Yeah but not every week.. you think i should do them every week?

TriZZle305 · 06-11-2005, 07:41 AM

First morning workout today ever.. I will post it after work..

.. also I have been developing a slight obsession with my rising weight although i tell myself constantly that it is not my goal to gain weight.. however i weigh 198 1/2 or 199 ... and i have never been 200 or above.. so i think i will eat a lot just to look at the scale..(i might have OCD, i look at the scale more than 10 times a day for the past 2 days)

Glad to hear your gaining size, your goal sounds solid, good luck with it!!!

Thanks Arch!

My Workout.. I decided that switching the order may shock my muscles a little differently than the "norm" routine.. I was absolutely correct

Hammer Strength Crunches
3x10 @ 70 Lbs slowwww
1x8 @ 70 Lbs i "cheated" i couple of these
(these kill)

Speed Box Squats
10x2 @ 225
2x3 @ 225
These felt wayy different after killing my abs and it really took a tole on my lower back... i guess from lack of remaining strength from abs

HyperExtentions
2 x 10 BW + 25
1 x 8 BW + 25
1 x 9 BW + 25
1 x 3 BW + 45 (PR never even tried to use "cadillacs" on Hypers)
How I felt after this...

I intended to do Deadlifts after these but i was incable of walking correctly because my back felt so fatigue.. so i traded them for Leg Extentions and Leg Curls

Leg Extensions
3x10 @ 195 TRue Failure,, these burned

Leg Curls
3x8 @ 110

I was a lil upset with that because thats less than i usually work out with but i just couldnt do it with 140.. it was too heavy for 6-8 rep range.. it was hurting my back a lil too..

First morning workout i think that may have contributed to some of my early fatigue but i felt like the workout was very effective.. I was walking very awkwardly and was going to call in to work but food and a HOT bath solved my back and leg problems enough to go in

Nice w/o, it sounds like you went all out.

No, just as a shocker now & then, but use like 2-3 plates!!!!!!

Seanp156 · 06-11-2005, 04:53 PM

Weighted dips with 2-3 plate, that's gotta be tough !

Michael Hart · 06-11-2005, 08:07 PM

where are the deadlifts my man? You got to pull the big weights to get strong!

Seanp156 · 06-11-2005, 08:09 PM

He always said his lower back was killed from the squats and hyper extensions so he decided against deads for today.

Well he weigh's almost 200 plus another 90= 290

He benches 310!?

Why does that seem radical,
it's just hitting the same chest from a different angle
Plus it will strengthen stabilizers he needs to boost his bench!?

Am I crazy?

i know!, my lowerback is just so undertrained it will be a while before i can Deadlift twice a week... last time i did a Dynamic Effort workout I had to hyperextentions at later time due to time constraints, so i guess thats why this time i was so knocked out from squats and hypers.. i'll definately be hitting some later this week on ME day so stay tuned

I was actually considering SLDL but i think i'll stick to Normal Deadlifts for a couple more weeks into the routine

Yeah you're crazy..

naw im just kidding, i could try it.. im usually a little tentative about loading big weights on something i dont normally do, weighted dips are new to me because i used to workout at home and the dips off the side of the bench w/ the weight in the lap suck IMO..

You don't have to start with 2plates you know?

TriZZle305 · 06-11-2005, 09:32 PM

I know.. but i always like a challenge.. Monday i am doing DE Upper so i think i will play with it and see what i can do
