DE Bench
Monday - June 2nd 2008 Chain Bench = 70x2x10. DB Shoulders = 50x8, 8, 7, 7. BB Skulls = 55x8, 60x8, 65x7, 50x10. DB Incline = 50x8x4. Pushdowns ss w/ Tate Presses = 5(50?)x10/30x5, 6(60?)x10/25x7, 7(70?)x10/20x10. DB Flies = 30x10, 35x10, 30x10. Cable Lateral Raises = 12.5x10, 17.5x10, 12.5x10. Really good workout today. My weekend was hell, so I was really happy to have a good start to the week today. I tried doing sets of 2 on the chain bench and loved it: I always seem to "struggle" on the third rep and it's almost unnecessary for me IMO; from this point forward, I'll do 2 reps of a given weight and then continue doing 2 reps until 2 reps becomes to easy, then I'll bump it up to 3 and start over with a higher weight the following week. Real good workout all around though. |

Personally, I am loving what I am doing now, the whole point being to do less per workout and workout more often. My numbers go up each session, and today for example, I squatted 330 for 4 reps, never did that before, and it wasn't nearly that taxing. I hope to hit 405 on the squat and 4 plates on the dips and 3 plates on chinups. The way things are going, it's not out of the question either. I know you could never do it cause you're a volume whore , but it's something to think about.

I've never read that article, but I'm going to check it out now and get back to you on it either tonight or tomorrow.
I was noticing that you were working out frequently but with out a lot of volume and it seems pretty cool, definitely something (yes, I know I'm a volume whore) I'd consider. I don't necessarily need the volume, I just need to be in the gym a lot or else I feel worthless and with my drinking habits the way they are, it makes more sense for me to be in the gym mid-week when I can control myself as opposed to the weekends when I can't. What exactly is your routine? How many days on, how are you splitting it up? I don't think you ever went into much detail in your journal, if I'm wrong, link me to that post.. Thanks in advance, my friend. |

The split is Push, Pull and Lower. I workout 2 days on, 1 day off and just rotate between the 3 days so that sometimes I get 3 days between the same workouts, sometimes I get 4 days, depending on where they fall. This is all I do: Push Dips 1x8, 1x4 OVerhead DB Press 1x8 Floor Press 1x8, 1x4 Pull Pendlay Rows 1x8, 1x4 Chinups 1x8, 1x4 High Pulls 1x8, 1x4 Hammer Curls 1x8, 1x4 Lower Squats 1x8, 1x4 SLDL 1x8, 1x4 Now, my numbers have been going up each session like I mentioned, I have no idea how this would effect size, but it definitely seems to be promoting some kind of strength gains. I am also on the fence about trying to cut out some calories to lose some BF, so in thinking with that, it might be good for me to continue with the low volume.

Hey Sox. How did the getting stoned idea work for you in terms of sleep? Has it improved. Note that solids (hashish) works far better than grass.

Getting stoned definitely helps, but I'm still not going to bed any earlier really.. Got up at 5:30 this morning, it's now nearly 3. That's not good.

ME Squat/Deadlift
Tuesday - June 3rd 2008 Squats = 135x5, 185x3, 225x3, 275x2, 315x1, 355x1. Rack Deads = 355x5, 345x5, 335x5, 325x5, 315x5. T-Bar Rows = 140x5, 145x5, 150x5, 155x4. Lat Pulldowns = 145x5, 160x5, 175x5, 190x4. Leg Ex = 334x8, 8, 8, 8. BB Curls = 105x5, 100x5, 95x5. Awesome workout. Another PR on the squats, due solely to less warm-up sets. Like I've said countless times today, I'm tired as hell and running on fumes, once I get this sleeping problem under wraps, I'm sure I'm going to grow in no time. The Nautilus Leg Extension machine is also no match for me anymore, which is kind of cool from what I remember last summer about it's difficulty. |

ME Bench
Thursday - June 5th 2008 Bench = 135x5, 160x4, 185x3, 210x1, 245x1, 225x1, 225x1, 225x1. Military = 95x5, 115x3, 135x1, 155x.5, 135x3, 115x5, 105x7. JM Press = 85x5, 80x5, 75x5, 70x5, 65x8. I threw in a couple of extra things as I was leaving, but this is the brunt of yesterdays workout. I was really happy with the bench; if you recall, I had suspicions that the spotter might have helped me too much last week with 250, so I tried 245 and nailed it. I needed a little help with 155 on the military press, but I'm hoping to hit it next week. JM Presses are coming along nicely as well. DE Squat/Deadlift day today.. It sucks, but I woke up with some minor shoulder pain in the same spot as the injury from a couple of months ago. I'll have to take some precautionary measures today. |

No clue.
I have no idea why anybody would feel the need to go into somebody's journal and be such a homo. It's truly mind boggling... |

Update:
So my shoulder started to flare up again last week, I didn't work out on Sunday with the mindset that one extra day of rest would be sufficient enough time for my shoulder to heal, but that's just stupid. I can't keep doing this. So for the next couple of weeks, I'm going to be doing something else. Anybody have any suggestions? |

It doesn't start acting up until max out bench/push days.. then it heals.. then I fuck it up again the next week. I still want to be lifting weights, I just need more of a bodybuilding type routine with higher reps and lower weight for the time being. I'll definitely check out DD's journal though ![]() |
