Better the devil than goob...

Bakerboy · 04-07-2007, 09:52 PM

That looked pretty damn tough! Good going goob.

goob · 04-08-2007, 07:33 AM

Thanks BB! Those woodchoppers were a fun suggestion, I'm going to work them in from time to time.

Sounds good. I'll stick to the current plan of 1.5 - 2 hours.

I have noticed a dip in performance if i go too soon (1 hour), but sometimes at 2 hours, I'm flying.

Thanks DD. Yeah, as I said I had to sit down for 4 minutes after them because my back was so stiff and sore! Could'nt really move.

I think this, combined with my inability to walk in any sort of co-ordinated manner after leg day, is making people think I work out drunk.....

Double D · 04-08-2007, 10:13 AM

Yeah no kidding. The big thing about bulgarians are the stability! The 80's I was using was easy, but I am not used to 1-legged movements with the exception of lunges. But they are superior to any other squat imo. Especially for an athlete!

Pretty good for an early morning workout. Push is my weakest day, I think. Only Second time doing gorilla's. My arms could hang their all day if I wanted, but my abs were starting to burn by end of 3rd set. Shoulder was sore when I tried to hang straight armed, so had to pull myself up a bit to maintain the hang.

DOMS · 04-10-2007, 10:18 AM

Nice workout, man!

I'm going to sound like a n00b, but what are Gorilla Hangs?

Oh, and how are you liking the Hise Shrugs? Are they working for you?

You're about as much a n00b as Bigdyl is straight......

Gorilla hangs were sort of like this. In fact I'm not even sure they are an exersice. I may just have invented them, while thinking I was doing something else?????? The way I was doing them, was to hang like that, and bring your legs straight out in front so you were hanging like an "L" shape, if you were looking side on. Hold your legs out like that for 23" seconds. Might try the proper way next time, but that way worked abs well, especialy combined with the dragon flags.

Hise shrugs are one of my favourites at present. It's the lift I can stick the most weight on. Plus, I like how they work your core, just due to the amount of weight you are holding up.

I think what you're doing are called Hanging Leg Raises.

I like them too.

Do you pause at the top for 2 seconds?

Damn it. I knew it was wrong!! There goes my hopes and aspirations for being remembered for inventing an exersice. The 'goob crunch'....had a nice ring to it.......... (Does sound suspiciously like a low cost breakfast cereal...)

Between 2-3 seconds at the top of the lift. Today I was raising and lowering slower too, taking 1-2 seconds to raise, and about 2 to lower.
Seemed to give it more bite....

You've got to love the bass playing! So good, that it even sounded like he had delay effects on it, when it was just his skill. Cool.

fufu · 04-10-2007, 11:46 AM

Yeah, I thought it was a neat little clip.

I like John's falsetto.

Yeah. Have heard his solo albums are brilliant, but have'nt actually heard any of them.

fufu · 04-10-2007, 11:49 AM

I have them all, my favorite music. I could send you some if you like.

DOMS · 04-10-2007, 11:49 AM

I did a search on Google for "good crunch", and I got the following. It's looks pretty yummy.

BigDyl · 04-10-2007, 11:51 AM

That can't be a legit meal....

DOMS · 04-10-2007, 11:52 AM

It's a cheat meal.

Cool Thanks. Might take you up on that sometime. If you've got any recomendations, I could stick some on my next download list.

Don't think I'll be digging into that 'tasty' meal anytime soon. Not with the way Vioepe is looking at me from the packet. It's unsettling.

I'm not surprised. It's all natural. The number one additive to nearly all mass processed foods is salt.

I actually laughed out loud at that....

Sounds like it was written by an ex - girlfriend.

I did a search with 'goob' in google, there's some wierd stuff going about with my good name. Adds to the mystery.......

goob · 04-12-2007, 06:24 PM

Deadlifts (Wide stance)
185 x 4
185 x 4
185 x 3

Pull - ups (Med/ Wide Grip)
BW x 8 (x 3)

T-Bar Rows
140 x 6
150 x 6
150 x 6
150 x 6

Bent over rows
110 x 6
110 x 6
110 x 6

Tricep Ext
65 x 6
70 x 4
70 x 3
70 x 3

Not bad. T-bar's felt good. Ass-kicking painful type of good. Hopefully get some Doms tomorrow, which I take as a sign of a good one.

Not a typical goob workout, in that the volume was low. I usually have at least another 4 exersices in there.

goob · 04-13-2007, 01:58 PM

4.2 mile run. Time: 35 minutes. Left thigh and knee still fucked. Cannot hit above 65-70% of max running speed. Not good. Still, you've got to work on these things, I'll do another one over the weekend.

goob · 04-14-2007, 12:52 PM

Std. Squats
160 x 8
190 x 4
190 x 5
190 x 6 PR

Bulgarian Squats
27.5 x 6 (BL)
30 x 6
35 x 6
35 x 6
35 x 8

Leg Ext
150 x 8
150 x 8

(Turbo mode)
Leg Press
420 x 8
500 x 8
550 x 8
(No rest)

Straight arm pulldowns
50 x 6
60 x 6
65 x 6
65 x 6

Ass - kicking workout. A wierd thing happend after Leg Ext. Went into this bizarre turbo mode. This was like supersetting on grade A crystal meth. Started on Leg Press and did super speed reps, pausing only long enough to change the weight. Straight arm pulldowns were the same.

It's curious, I 've never really tried this before, and I don't know why I did it today. Felt great, but destroyed me after. And doing it on the same day as Bulgarian's was unexpected. I think I'd usually need a superstegnth NO product to repeat this.
