Went to the gym last night............. a few things made this workout not one of the greatest.
We've been going almost right after work, and the gym is like a crazy house of complete ignorant idots! Do people not have any gym edicate anymore???? No one racks their weights, people butt in front on the equipment, and omg, I've seen people do the most rediculous things on/with the equipment too. If it wasn't so freakin' annoying it could be funny. Kids everywhere while their 'fat' parents make some kind of effort to............ well, I'm not sure what? People staring like they've never seen a women bb before........ Last night, one guy was acutally popping his zits in the db rack mirrors................grossssssssssssss! I'm thinking to go back to our regular time, later in the evening, so the gym is quiet and only the hardcores are there. Ok, there, now I've vented. Thanks for listening!
So, worked Arms and Chest............
Incline Press 3/4 plates x 12, x12, x10
1 plate x 10, x10
Bench Press 1 plate x 12, x12, x10
1 1/2 plates x 10, x 10
Chest flys 30lb db x 12, x 12
35lb db x 10, x 8
DB Curls 25 lb db x 15, x12
30 lb db x 12, x12
BB Curls 30lbs x 15, x15
40lbs x 15, x12, x 12
Scull crushers 40lb BB x 12, 12
50lb BB x 10, x 8, x 8
Tricep pushdowns 70lbs x 12, x 12
80lbs x 12, x 10

BTW, does anyone have any idea how to work with an elbow/shoulder injury to reduce pain.............. I'm finding that wrapping my elbow really restricts my movements and my right side is not developing like my left................ What does one use to work through the pain................ hummmmmmmmmmmmm.

 

[docdoom77]

Just all the usual stuff. ice and heat. take it easy. massage helps.

 

[gettinthere]

I got a perscription for an anti infalmmatory (pills) as well as a topical cream with the same painkiller/anti inflammatory ingredients. I'll try the cream tomorrow at the gym. fingers crossed.

PS, changed my avitar.................. Ronnie is king! lol lol

Friday........... Leg day!

Although I went to the gym and worked legs, I went lighter than normal. I'm taking antibiotics for a 'digestion issue' and I'm pretty low energy today. I drink so much water, but I know I'm dehydrated somewhat. Has anyone else taken antibiotics during a cycle and if so, what did you experience? I'm a little concerned.............
So,
Standing Calf raises (on Smith) 2 plates x 18, 15, 12, 12
Sitting Calf 1 1/2 plates x 18, 15, 12, 12
Squats (on Smith) 1 1/2 plates x 12, 12, 12, 10
Leg Press 3 plates (per side) x 12, 12, 12, 10
Seated leg extentions 70lbs x 10, 8, 8
Hamstring Curls (seated) 70lbs x 10, 8, 8

I'm starting my third week on my cycle, and it really sucks to be sick. Such bad timing! I'm on the mend now, so I hope to make up some gains. I have kept with my diet for the most part and have noticed a decrease in body fat........... that 'tire' around the middle is getting less, but not quite gone. My vascularity is coming along, which I absolutely love! No sides so far! I'm thinking of upping my var to 40mg ed but maybe should wait to finish these damn antibiotics. Feedback on that issue?????

 

[gettinthere]

I went grocery shopping yesterday.............. actully, I should call it 'protien' shopping. lol Bought 6kg of chicken breast, and 1.5kg of whey protien isolate. As well as my usual cottage cheese, eggs and the rest of my list. I'm set for a while in the protien department!

All my symptoms are about gone except the cough. That bugger is hanging on for dear life.

 

[gettinthere]

coughs can do that. Seem to last forever.

Been a crazy few days. Sorry for not posting............. I'll catch up this weekend

So, heading to the gym soon......... Leg day.

Worked shoulders and back on Monday, chest and arms on Weds. Good workouts.

I've finished my antibiotics so I've upped my var to 40mg ed. Still no sides.
Well, none that I know of........... has anyone ever had var cause diarrhea as a side?

I'll let you know how my leg workout goes. Should be good.

[gettinthere]

today is friday which means leg day We are planning on going to the gym later tonight, so I'll take my camera and try to get some 'action' shots.

 

[gettinthere]

so, my workout was one of the biggest let downs of the week. Shit, I hate a crappy workout. I know we all have them, every now and again, I just really hate it. I did manage to get a few pics though.

Heres one on the sitting calf........... only two plates here. I ended up doing a few with three (but thought I was gonna die!)

 

[docdoom77]

Sorry to hear it. It sucks, but I'm sure it'll go better next time.

 

[gettinthere]

Thanks Doc. I'm sure it will go better next time. It's been a rough week, so I'm not really surprised. We all go through it, I suppose.

 

[gettinthere]

monday was back and shoulders. It's weds. now and my shoulders still ache. Good workout! Being Weds. that means Chest and Arms. Got a great pump in the arms tonight. Again, good workout. This is making up for Friday's dissapointment. lol

 

[docdoom77]

Arms are looking good. Forearms are looking very vascular. Good work.
