am doing good, sir! getting all ramped up to get serious again...
hhmm...cant' say I've ever hit the nip....but it doesn't sounds like a great time.
Worst thing I ever did w/ a DB...was with a 120...was getting set. (had spotter get it into position for incline DB press) it moved out a couple inches...and put one helluva strain on the shoulder I've had problems with...so had to somehow...bring that weight back down without:
1) dropping onto floor
2) dropping onto face

managed to avoid both...

SamEaston · 09-20-2007, 11:08 AM

That's funny!

Guess that superhero training is really paying off huh!

the other half · 09-20-2007, 09:51 PM

i try not to grab the 120 lb. db to start. that is usually a sign that something is going to hurt no matter what u do.

well we did 30 min. of cardio on the stair climber. i like that machine.
it is the only one that gives me the same feeling of hiking in the mountians.
yesterday i took about an eight mile hike, with my backpack, rifle, and pistol.
had to check out a couple of the hunting trials for next month. legs felt pretty good at the end of the day, but the back was a little tight from the backpack. less then 3 weeks till our trip. cool.

the other half · 09-21-2007, 08:59 AM

i really wish katt would let me sleep in once in awhile.
today w/o shoulders
db press
50-12
55-10
60-5
ok, so im supposed to be doing set of 12, this isnt cool.

side lat raises
20-12
25-12
27.5-12

front raises-palms up
22.5-12
25-12
27.5-12

incline rev db raise
15-12
17.5-12
20-12

hyper ext.
45-15x3

shrugs
320-12
340-11
360-10

i have to get past the pyscologiacal part of this. you add 4 more reps to each set and it kicks your ass.

Burner02 · 09-21-2007, 09:08 AM

yeah...but you're happy seeing the results of being drug out of bed and 'forced' to the gym?
Your delt W/O was better than mine!

So...when you were out in the wilderness...all alone....did you see Big Foot?
'Cause...that would be cool...
:P

well i didnt see bigfoot, but at one point i was walking and got a pretty go whif of something nasty, either there was a bear close by or something dead, which would result in a bear being close by. thats the one time u dont want to see them.

the other half · 09-21-2007, 09:36 AM

well burner, i havent taken any time off for the last year and a half. just a few vacation weeks and hunting trips. if i missed the gym for a couple of months i would really struggle. i think im to old so my muscle memory doesnt work any more.

Burner02 · 09-21-2007, 10:28 AM

it still works...just a little slower than it used to!

yeah...I'd prefer to not meet up w/ a bear in the wilderness....

i lose my grip on the weights because i have to move my fingers to count.
but yes i find that 12 and 15 do get a little tedious. but gotta do it.

Burner02 · 09-24-2007, 10:20 AM

heh....I had a friend go to the gym w/me the other night...did our own separate thing....but after I finished, I helped him do his delts.
He started on upright rows. I tried them again...and the anterior delt screamed HELL NO! so, I put it back down.
THen...he made the misstake of asking me if I'd help him do some negatives w/ it...
heh...he doesn't know me too well...I'm the perfect a--hole workout partner.
He started his set...got his first 4 or 5 out without stopping...then he started to pause at the bottom.
"UP!"
"I SAID UP!"

he was still kinda getting his wind...so I helped him bring the weight up...and he resisted down...tried that resting at the bottom again nonsense...

"UP!!!!"
again pulled it up.

on the third rep like this...I heard him explaim under his wheezing breath:
U.....<gasp> mother....<wheeze>...fugger.....
"UP!"

Four good negative reps; just as he asked for. Which, I reminded him as he looked at me with those...if I could lift my arms...I'd slap you eyes...

I mena...pppffft....he wasn't wimpering...no spittle was forming at his mouth....he still had juice, man! I was easy on him!

If you worked out at home, you wouldn't have to get dressed. Then you could do sets of 21.
