I had another crazy weekend with horrible diet and other unmentionable bad things. Woke up early today and had breakfast. I'm about to leave to the gym for back day. I'm not expecting any thing gr8 for today.

JailHouse · 11-12-2007, 08:44 AM

BACK/BIS

LAT PULL DOWNS
-100X10 (WU)
-140X10 PR+5 REPS
-140X8
-140X8

SEATED CABLE ROWS
-170X10 PR+2 REPS
-170X10
-170X10
haven't done these in a while

DB CURLS ON INCLINE BENCH
-25sX10
-25sX10
-25sX10
really felt these

BB SHRUGS
-135X10
-185X10

Never done these with out a smith machine

LOWER BACK CRUNCHES
BWX20

these were nice

-ROTARY CUFF WORK

This work out was better than I thot it would be. The gym put the mens scale in the main lobby for some strange reason so I was fully clothed when I weighed my self, I'm sure that made a difference big time.

katt · 11-12-2007, 09:31 AM

Nice weights on the rows! Those curls on the incline bench are my absolute favorite! You don't need much weight to feel the stretch !

Thanks katt. Stretch is the perfect word to describe the feeling those incline curls give.

goob · 11-12-2007, 12:57 PM

Sweet wo JH! Those Rows are incredible! Great job.

Brutus_G · 11-12-2007, 04:28 PM

Good stuff love those DB curls good pump and stretch!

JailHouse · 11-12-2007, 08:58 PM

Thanks alot guys. I felt sick like shit right after my work out and then for the rest of the day it just got worse. Im gunna try and go to sleep here soon and get a good 12hrs of sleep. Holfully ill feel better tomorrow morning so I can destroy my legs.

JailHouse · 11-13-2007, 12:27 PM

Still feeling sick as a dog today with a sore throat. I called off work and took off from the gym. So I'm really itching to get my legs done

.

the other half · 11-13-2007, 12:36 PM

just kick it at home all day long then, when the time is right go destroy them,
but if you dont feel good dont do it, especially a sore throat, sucks trying to breath when you are fried from doing legs.

Kick back, mash some green into a brownie, yoghurt etc..., eat you're ass off and sit watching good movies.

Isn't that what inpromptu ill days of work are for?

On another note, I've just realised I've taken more days off work because I could'nt be bothered, or wanted to do something else, than I have for actually being ill. Probably in the ratio of 4:1. Mad.

Brutus_G · 11-14-2007, 01:31 PM

yeah thats the thing about front squats its a bitch to hold that bar for the high reps lol.

goob · 11-14-2007, 02:07 PM

Fuck nice squats there, ill or not!!!

I'll second this.

JailHouse, do you hold the bar Olympic or bodybuilder style?

JailHouse · 11-14-2007, 03:15 PM

Thanks guys. I hold the bar with my hands shoulder length and elbows straight out, I'm not sure what style you'd call that.

That's Olympic style. I prefer bodybuilding style. That's with the arms crossed in front. I think it's more comfortable.

JailHouse · 11-14-2007, 03:35 PM

Huh I'm trying to picture how that would work? My problem with Olympic is it puts a lot of weight on ur wrists.

Then try bodybuilding style. Here's a pic:

JailHouse · 11-14-2007, 03:46 PM

Sweet! Ill give those a try next time. Thanks.

DOMS · 11-14-2007, 03:50 PM

You're welcome. I've read up a bit on the different ways to hold the bar, the only difference seems to be preference.

I tend to tilt my elbows up a little to make a cradle for the bar with my delts.

Rubes · 11-15-2007, 02:37 AM

nice job on the front squats. have to agree with DOMS on the way to front squat its less stress on the wrist

goob · 11-28-2007, 04:54 PM

Hey JH? Where the fuck are you?

JailHouse · 12-26-2007, 09:36 PM

Whats up guys. Sorry for being mia for the longest. lots of bs has been goin on, my old computer took a shit on me, and I sustained a rib injury. I just got a new comp for xmas so thats been takin care of. but as far as the rib injury its kept me out of the gym for almost a month, I think ill be ready to go back in a week or so.
