The Meltdown - Pylon's Journal V 3.1

[Pylon]

Lunch workout...

WU - bike, 10 min
WU - standing db press, bo db rows, hammer curls - 20s x 10 each

OH DB presses - 35s x 10 (more on this later)

BO DB rows - 45s x 10 (up 2 reps)

BB curls - 80 x 6 (up 10 lbs, down 4 reps)

pushdowns - 120 x 10 (up 3 reps)
SS dips - BW x 2

I dropped upright rows for standing db presses. I'm subbing for lat raises, and these seem a little closer to what I need to do here.

Evening workout...

bike, 45 minutes

I also decided to go with Archie's program, just because I'm used to the HIT style and I think I can get up to speed faster. But don't worry Brutus, I will use yours as well at some point.

 

[Pylon]

Morning weigh in - 260.

That was my January goal, hit a week early. Woohoo! Now to see how far I can push it before February rolls around...

 

[Triple Threat]

Great job, Py. What's the next goal?

 

[Pylon]

10 lbs lower at the end of Feb than the beginning of Feb. (The original plan was 250, but we'll see where I start out and go from there.)

Same here I just got a house down the shore time to show off this body

Py lookin good bud! Grats on hitting your goal!! Keep kicking ass!

 

[King Silverback]

Fantastic job my Friend, way to go!!! Stick to your guns BRother Pylon!!!

 

[Brutus_G]

That program looks like a pretty decent workout to me one thing i would add would be something like chins/pullups or lat pulldowns.

I'm cutting to pylon.

 

[Pylon]

Py...I am SO proud of you!! Do you know your avg Cal. intake?? I know at one point last year you had it pretty low...

Um...not really. I eat when I get hungry, but I would guess it is pretty low. But I don't sweat it too much...

How tall are ya Py? I haver started my cut once again. I feel very didcated this time, but we shall see.

I'm 6'1". I'm heavier than I want to be, but I have a pretty big frame, so I carry it ok, I think. I'm looking to get down to 220.

You'll cut when you are really ready. Otherwise it won't work. At least that's how I am.

Thanks, Bolt. House on the shore, huh? When is the housewarming party? Are we all invited?

Fantastic job my Friend, way to go!!! Stick to your guns BRother Pylon!!!

Thanks, Archie. One day, one meal, one bite at a time.

I'm cutting to pylon.

Chins would probably be a good addition, at the very least to get me off pullup welfare.

And I'm assuming you mean "cutting too", right? I mean, you'd have to be pretty big if you were cutting just to where I am.

 

[Double D]

Yeah I do feel very dedicated this time. Hell i even bought some detox things from walmart to try and clean out my system my first week of my cut.

Routine B2 - Bent Over Rows/CG Pulldowns/DB Curls

 

[Pylon]

Well there you go. But don't count those pulldowns for lats. They are a bicep lift. You know better.

Got me there!!!

 

[King Silverback]

But it does help the lats too!!! LOL!!!

 

[Pylon]

But it does help the lats too!!! LOL!!!

No doubt. I think my favorite lat move right now is the db pullover. Don't know why, I just really dig it.

 

[Pylon]

Did my cardio tonight, but only 30 minutes. I think the bearing is starting to go out on my bike. It is getting really hard to pedal, and the tension dial has nothing to do with it. I even took it apart to get inside to look for anything out of place. Nothing looked out of place, but I could feel the metal grinding while I worked. Might try to lube it or something.

Anyway, still usable, just more work. And that's not so bad, right?

 

[Double D]

Well from a person of my laziness from time to time, yes very bad.....haha

 

[Brutus_G]

lol

 

[Pylon]

Nice to see you digging into the pic vault, Brutus. Always a good time.

 

[King Silverback]

Work HARD, not LONG!!!

 

[Double D]

I like working hard, but as for hit I think I would have to pass, I can never keep my food down on it.

That means you're doing it right!

 

[Double D]

That just means its not for me. Haha...

 

[Pylon]

So, here's something interesting. I took yesterday off, clean diet but no workout or cardio, and could not fall asleep. I'm wondering if my body has gotten so accustomed to the nightly output of energy that if I skip it, all that extra energy just pools up and prevents me from dozing off. Not sure how I feel about that. Anyone else have an issue like this?

 

[Triple Threat]

 

[DeadBolt]

Lookin good py!

That sounds like it would happen...your sleeping pattern and all. Once your body gets use to something its hard to change.

Oh and you HIT guys are sick! I mean I do circuits and all but I dont think I could do HIT!

And hell yea your welcome to the house warming...probably in the spring LOL.

 

[Double D]

Nope never if I am cutting I have to problems sleeping, no freakin energy for me.

 

[King Silverback]

I have that problem too BRother Pylon, I think alot of it's mental, but I believe it's physical too, like you suggest!!!
