Let's talk about Feelings

ReproMan · 02-17-2007, 10:56 AM

Well, here we go again. I need to jump back on the journal bandwagon. Missed out for a month, didn't stop lifting, just journaling. Time to catch up a bit....

ReproMan · 02-17-2007, 10:58 AM

135 - 8
225 - 8,8,8

Leg Press:

Squatting feels better every week, time to bump the weight again.

ReproMan · 02-17-2007, 11:04 AM

Wootage! Still looking strong, man!

A hearty welcome back to Journal-Land

4th I think.

Elliptical: 10 minutes

RDL's: w/straps
45 - 12
135 - 8
225 - 8
315 - 8,8,8

Bent Knee Good Mornings:
205 - 10,10,10

Hypers:
BW - 8,8,8

Vomiting:
Breakfast - 1
Lunch - 1

And that's what happens when you go crazy on deadlifts after a night of drinking.

On a side note, I like cottage cheese with apples.

Oh I'm a old pro at puking. I make it outside and around the side of the building, then I let loose.

AKIRA · 02-17-2007, 03:47 PM

Again!

I remember you posting in one of your previous journals about strange coloured puke from your Pre-WO shake.

Neon green or something?

That's gotta be one hell of a sight for passers by.

goob · 02-18-2007, 01:24 PM

I'm happy.

What???? I thought this was about feelings????

Good job on hitting the gym hungover. That takes real effort.

TY, TY. I can't do that without straps however, but I'm not training to be a powerlifter.

Haha! Yeah, it was blue raspberry NO-Explode. It actually tasted better on the way up.

Thanks, I've been so busy lately, I really didn't have a choice.

Elliptical: 5 minutes

T-Bar Rows:

Damnit!! I still hate morning workouts!! I feel like I'm 10% weaker all around. Oh well, still felt like a good session.

AKIRA · 02-19-2007, 12:45 PM

Ohhh Sunday Morning...eh, might be psychological. Ive read that man's testosterone was highest in the morning....but every male Ive spoken to has said they are stronger around 5pm. Even myself.

So much for scientific data.

How do you like the Yates Rows?

katt · 02-19-2007, 12:50 PM

I'm curious on the Yates rows myself - do you feel any lower back pressure with this?

AKIRA · 02-19-2007, 12:54 PM

Techincally you should feel less. Besides the grip, the only difference is the you stand more upright.

My theory is that its all the extra food you've eaten in the day. The calories have been going in at a steady rate for about 8 hours or more, thats gotta count for something i guess.

Makes sense to me. I can't raise a smile in the morning.

I like em. They were a little awkward at first because of the small ROM, but they are pretty cool.

Yeah, I feel my W/O's are much more effective in the evening.

Like AKIRA said, I feel a lot less pressure doing Yates Rows opposed to doing standard Bent Over BB Rows.

Again, they are a little awkward at first with the small ROM, but I had to keep telling myself I was doing them properly. (And I am)

Well, I woke at 8, ate breakfast, went to the store to buy groceries, then I came home, took NO-Explode and worked out around 10. So I had a little in me I guess.

"Are you suicidal?"

"Only in the morning."
