This Is Why I'm Hot!!

Burner02 · 07-30-2007, 09:33 AM

Hey B!
how is the dog? did it make it?
Guess I need to read more...you moved?
What kind of job are you looking to move into?

b_reed23 · 07-31-2007, 03:58 AM

the dog died...instantly I guess, it ran out of nowhere into the road...no collar, no tags...

Fitgirl70 · 07-31-2007, 07:12 AM

I'm sorry about the dog sweetie! I hope you're doing okay?

katt · 07-31-2007, 08:03 AM

I feel sorry for the dog, but there was nothing you could do...

That happened to us also, a while back, but with ducks.... the mother was taking her "line" of ducklings across the highway to the river,,, well, I came around the corner and "BAM" there they were - no time to swerve or stop.. I cried for a long time after that happened.

Burner02 · 07-31-2007, 10:01 AM

sorry that happened, but it at least it sounds as if it did not suffer.

b_reed23 · 08-01-2007, 01:41 AM

the only things that suffered were my car.....and my ego

got to the gym today...

inc. Db Bench 20x15, x6, x4
assist. pullups -90x8, x4, x3 I need these with a wider grip that normal....I think my arms are too short to use the pullup machine

h.s. mil. press 35x8
upright rows 35x8
rope curls 70x8
rope pressdown 60x8

I've decided to do my abs 2 times a week...one weighted, one non-weighted...

leg raises x10, x4, x3

20m walk, 1.10 miles

Fitgirl70 · 08-01-2007, 07:55 AM

Nice workout B! Oh speaking of pull-ups, I have a question. Can someone tell me what the development differences are between a close grip pull up and a wide grip pull up, please?

Don't think your arms are too short sweetie, mine are short too.

I've been doing assisted pullups too, but I didn't know why my trainer was having me use the inside grip instead of the wider one????

Oh -- uno momento! Maybe the shorter arms is why I'm doing a closer grip???????

DeadBolt · 08-01-2007, 08:56 AM

Different grips activate different muscles in the back. Wide pullups gear more towards width narrow grip gear more towards thickness (thats getting really crazy though) For the average person just trying to stay fit it is just a good change of pace to keep the muscles growing and progressing.

B hows it going?!?! Killed a dog eh...eh it wasn't your fault cheer up! I run geese over all the time in my truck. They are like roaches around here and destroy our cars!

Looks like your kickin ass in the gym!

Burner02 · 08-01-2007, 11:37 AM

yeah...but she wasn't actually AIMING for the dog...geese killer!

but yeah...what DB said. Just try varying your grip every here and then...or every set you do.
I've started wide, then brought them in, then went wide again...

DeadBolt · 08-01-2007, 11:44 AM

I mix it up wide under hand BB row and close grip overhand pulldown has given me to the best results! When I was aiming for some width I was doing everything widegrip and underhand and it did wonders...could really see the difference! But now one widegrip underhand and one close grip overhand is a nice even mix that gives me great results!

b_reed23 · 08-03-2007, 02:36 AM

you guys are great! I ended up with $1400 of damage to my car!

!!!!!!!!!!

to answer DB...I use to do underhand grip all the time with rows and pullups, but for the last 6-8 month I've been having pain in my wrists when I do it, so I've avoided it!

I did 45 minutes on the bike yesterday, 8.7 miles! I worked legs today, will post workout later
