Brother Andalite, thanks for the compliments!!! I really don't do DC exclusively, so I try to mix certain styles into my own, but I appreciate the advice!!! Nitro abs are a crunch machine that you sit in and pull in, hope that helps, LOL!!! Great lifts in your vids too!!!

Congrats!! 4th is really good, and that was your first contest too, wasn't it? I trained on a powerlifting style routine over most of the summer and I must say I loved it. I have gone back to a bodybuilding style focusing on compound lifts just because I need to gain some size first. I am interested in some powerlifting down the road. I haven't started a journal yet, I plan to but I only joined today and today happened to be a rest day.

I dont get how you dont yak after doing something like that



"Strength is the product of struggle"

"Your greatest challenge isn't another person. Its the burning in your lungs and the burning in your legs, its the voice in your head screaming STOP you cant do anymore. But you dont listen. You push harder and you start to hear a the whisper of YOU CAN. You realize you are not the person you thought you were is no match for the person you are."

Thank you Brother Andalite, it's a mix between DC and Mentzers theory, just my own twist of things, LOL!!!

oh...the negatives on this are amazing, no? i used to do Yates Rows before...wow....the good times lol

Yes sir, Negative work is Incredible!!!

wow

Thank you!!!

ive never actually seen a nautilus loaded press...but damn: the weights are amazing!

I'll try to post up a pic, thanks again, appreciate that!!!

No, it's a preacher curl using the opposite side, place your arms on the flat side of the bench!!!

by "Skullcrushers/CG Press" are u referring to JM Presses?

great workout on the whole

keep it up sir!
No, those look interesting though!!! I do skullcrushers until I cant anymore, then using the same weight, I instantly shift into CGBP, try them, they are a Intense exercise!!!

Yeah, it seems like abs are always the easiest part to leave out. The rest of your workout is looking intense as usual.
