New Shoes: New Workout Plan:thumb:
so I just bought a new pair of shoes to workout/start running in. they are very comfortable with good ankle support and decent arch support which were the 3 things I was looking for.
Under Armour ® in Canada | Men's UA Proto Evade™ Trainer | 1096002 | I got them in red, white and black. I chose Under Armour because what the shoe person (I dunno what you'd call them ) I was talking to told me was that they are a very reliable brand, and they were actually better priced than the Rbk or the Adidas pairs I was looking at.as for the new workout, I kind of took the idea from Westside with a squat day, deadlift day, and bench press day, but with only 3 full body workouts a week, instead of the DE/ME days twice a week (time constraints were a factor). so here they are: Squat Day Squats 5x5 Seated Cable Rows 5x5 Hang Cleans 5x5 Dips 3x10 Hyperextensions 3x10 Bench Press Day Bench Press 5x5 1-Legged RDLs 5x5 Standing Military Press 5x5 Split Squats 3x8 Pullups Target # Set=20 RDL Day RDLs 5x5 U/L Lat Pulldowns 5x5 Rack Pulls 5x5 BB Rows 3x8 DB Snatch 3x8 I'll also be adding in some core and static holds too. so how does that look? does anyone think that doing rack pulls on the day RDLs are done could be a bad idea? |

I plan on keep at those weights for a while even though I was able to get 5x5 on all of them, just for forms sake. also, my goal with the 1-legged RDLs is to be able to use a BB instead of a DB sorry I've been slacking on the journals everyone ... |

Nice.

Wait a minute ... 1-legged DL's?? What do you do with the other leg??
Oh and unilateral lat pulldowns are brilliant. I was doing them for a while and i thought they were much better than bilaterals. So Scar, hows tricks?? You having a good summer?? |

thanks DD! good to have to back around again
thanks goob, I find they hit the hams/glutes better than regular RDLs and also are great for balance too. Quote:
summer is going really well so far. the job is great, have been learning a lot since I started. all it's been though is work/eat/gym/sleep - nothing else. but I'm makin' money so whatever! lol how's everything going with you? ************************************************ Fullbody B - 06-11-'08 Squats - RI 2:00 155x5x5 Seated Cable Rows - RI 2:00 127.5x5x5 Hang Cleans - RI 2:00 80x5x5 Dips - RI 1:00 BWx3x10 Hypers - RI 1:30 BW+25x3x8 Cable Crunches - RI 1:00 125x10 130x10 135x9 |

..soooooooooo
let me RE-introduce myself. I hope you guys still remember me ![]() summer was just way too hectic and I was unable to get to the gym regularly, and then just the past 10 days I had a 3rd year geology field school, traversing through rivers and brooks mapping rocks. it was a blast, minus the crappy weather! anyway, new routine starting up soon with the trusty old upper/lower split. here it is. Upper A a) Bench Press b) Supine Rows Incline DB Press T-Bar Rows Bentover Laterals Upper B a) Push Press b) Pullups Dips U/L Pulldowns DB Snatch Lower A Back Squats a)step-ups b)box jumps calf raises Lower B RDLs Rack Pulls Hang Cleans Hypers throwing in planks, cable crunches, and farmers walk in there too. I have a rep and set scheme set up also, but I am just too tired to type it all out right now. in short, I am going to be starting out with the supersets 5x5 for one week, then 3 sets of 5x5 and 2 sets of 5x6, then 3 sets of 5x6 and 2 sets of 5x5, then all 5 sets of 5x6. that sort of thing. off to bed soon, I'll be around like old times soon enough. |

yeah...my numbers...they're pretty lame... First workout in a long time and here it was. numbers are slack...aside from the pullups and push presses which was still around par ![]() Push Press @ 85lbsx5 1:00 RI CG Pullups @ BW+25x5 1:00 RI Push Press @ 85lbsx5 1:00 RI CG Pullups @ BW+25x5 1:00 RI Push Press @ 85lbsx5 1:00 RI CG Pullups @ BW+25x5 1:00 RI Push Press @ 85lbsx5 1:00 RI CG Pullups @ BW+25x5 1:00 RI Push Press @ 85lbsx4 1:00 RI CG Pullups @ BW+25x3 1:00 RI Dips @ BWx3/10,8,4 ![]() U/L Lat Pulldowns @ 25lbsx2/10 each arm ![]() DB Snatch @ 20lbsx2/8,8 each arm stretched. walked to and from school - 20 minutes each way. so...I'm weak...well, I felt like a weakling. I don't think it has as much to do with being away from the gym for 3 months as it does me being currently sick . last week was my 3rd year field school, and we were actually traversing in rivers (only waist deep) but it rained on us all week, so we were cold, wet and tired...perfect recipe for getting sick. anyway, I only did 2 sets on the last 2 exercises because I was getting light-headed and quite dizzy (due to the cold) and almost passed out.and I would like to thank yellowmoomba for the awesome idea for the first part of my workout |

How'd you like the supersetting? It looks good to me.
It's good to see someone else doing DB Snatches. It's a great exercise. |

hey Py.
yeah, thought I'd better get in shape for it! Quote:
I have never done DB snatches before, and I like more "power" oriented lifts like hang cleans, the push press, so I thought I'd give them a try. today's workout...

so today's workout doesn't look like much, but my legs are telling me a different story!
Back Squats - RI 2:00 135x2x5 145x3x5 Lunges - RI 1:30 BW+30lbs x3x10 each leg 12" Box Jumps - RI 1:30 4x8 Seated Calf Press - RI 1:00 90lbs x3x10 stretched. walked to and from school - 20 minutes each way. so, like I said, doesn't look like much but my legs are tired as hell! there was absolutely no way I was going to superset step-ups (which I couldn't do because there was no box at the right height) and box jumps, my legs were dead! so I resorted to lunges and box jumps separately. another thing, I went light with the squats because before when I did them, I'd only go parallel. I thought this time around I am going as low as I can, which wasn't quite ATG but was a fair bit below parallel. I noticed it takes a lot more out of your legs with less weight, but I also seemed to get more power from that low too. |

RDLs - RI 2:00
155x5 165x3x5 175x5 Hang Cleans - RI 2:00 75x5 80x4x5 Single Leg RDLs - RI 1:30 BWx2x10 BW+15lbs x2x10 Farmers Walk - RI 1:30 2x70lb DBs - 4x20m forgot to stretch. had to scrap a few ideas I previously had. for one I wanted to do hypers, but the hyperextension thing was being used, so I resorted to single leg RLDs which after regular RDLs pretty much fried my hams and glutes. I realized I can't do rack pulls because the safeties in the squat rack only go down as far as 10cm above my knee cap, which I don't think would be very useful in doing rack pulls. still happy with this workout. |

Can you stand on something so the bar will be lower on your leg?

thanks man. I'm a big fan of the O-style lifting. gets the heart rate and gives you one heck of a workout.

I could have used a squat rack, but I definitely would have lost either the bench or the rack as I was using the other. so I resorted to DB rows which went over decently. |
