What's an energy pill? You like big trucks Billy !!

b_reed23 · 04-01-2006, 01:09 AM

I LOVE big trucks!

well, just when I thought things were getting better...I am SO sick....sinuses draining really bad to tummy, also pressure in my head, ears, and I'm sore all over....hope it's just some viral thing and not the flu....everyone in the press room at work has it with the exception of 6 people

Devlin · 04-01-2006, 07:30 AM

That sucks. Hope you feel better soon

b_reed23 · 04-01-2006, 03:48 PM

feeling better today, I still have a fever, and badly stuffed up, but not feeling sick to my stomach, hopefully will back to normal on Monday

Hell no, I was a bum all day and never even made it out of my pjs.

And no I didn't go to the gym either yesterday. It was a complete day of rest yesterday. The toy has had some issues to deal with, but hopefully will be able to come out and play next week, that is if I'm not buried in work again.

b_reed23 · 04-01-2006, 10:07 PM

all work and no play for Dev..................

b_reed23 · 04-01-2006, 10:08 PM

Billie

Guess what I did this weekend? Planted some new flowers, some phlox, some verbeena, some geraniums, some perilla....ahhh, getting the pool area ready for the summer!

b_reed23 · 04-03-2006, 01:07 PM

better today! Just a tickle in my throat and a small cough

Having a good day so far...a buddy from the gym brought me the results of a benchpress comp that the Police Dept held a couple saturdays ago...and I was blown away...one woman benched 150lb...but he told me no one was impressed cause she had on a bench shirt, and wrist wraps, gloves...the works...the other 2 ladies benched 90 and 95...which is doable

THEN the group of guys told me that they wanted me to start training with them on Mondays (chest) becuase they want me to bench next time...they say I should be able to hit 100+ easy if I had a spotter with me. They seemed really impressed by my workouts, so I think maybe next Monday I may join them and see what happens

Oh...and while I was doing my skulls/dips that woman (you remember the one!!) came up to me and told me to be careful with so much weight...then she asked for a spot on Mil press...I helped her, but was a bit pissed at her concern over my...er..."bulkiness" wait till she sees me training with the guys...

This is shock week!!
Chest/shoulders/triceps

Inc. DB bench 30x10, x9, x6

/Cable x-overs 40x10, x10, x9
Dec fly 15x10, x10/DB Benchpress 25x10, x8
Pec deck DS 80x6, 70x4, 60x6 ( I think I'm starting out too heavy on this...)

front lats 10x10, x10/side lats 10x10, x8 been a while since I've done these as a SS...I like it!

Single arnold 15x10, x10/upright rows 35x10, x8 started feeling

bent lats DS 10x8, 8x8, 5x6

for triceps I had to improvise...cables were being used...but I LOVED this setup...Dips nearly killed me...I did them with hands on bench, and feet on the floor, it's been so long since I've done these that my arms were literally ON FIRE!!!! Will def. do these again soon

Skulls 25x10, x10, x10/Dips 25x8, x6, x6

O/H rope ext. DS 70x10, 60x10, 50x8

way to hit it, ms. bad-ass!

a bench shirt???? CHEAT! It's like using NOS in a car! CHEAT!

u SS dips w/ skull crushers??? U animal! Lucky u didn't find out how they came to be called that!

b_reed23 · 04-03-2006, 02:43 PM

I used a really low weight for skulls...will def. increase that next time...and the dips I used the weight that I USED to use...which was too much...lol...some adjustment will be needed, but my left pec has started twitching, and my triceps are SUPER tired...gonna be hell tomorrow...

Burner02 · 04-03-2006, 02:44 PM
