A new journal (Heavy/Medium/Other)

[tucker01]

Uh Iain, take it from the biggest Buckeye fan on this board, OHIO is a tiny university in the southeastern hills of Ohio close to West Virginia, in a little town named Athens (beautiful place btw). Ohio STATE is a huge university in the capital city of Columbus .

It would be like confusing Michigan and Michigan State, or Penn and Penn State, or Georgia and Georgia State, or Florida and Florida State, or..... you get the idea.

My Bad JD, Just lazy, will not mess that up again

HIT Day 1

Total workout time: 30 minutes

Every set was until failure. When I was walking out of the gym I still had a ton of energy. Going from 10-15 sets to 4 sets per workout will be mentally challenging. As long as I get stronger - I'll be happy.

HS Incline Press
260 x 15 RP

Trap Bar Deadlift
410 x 8 * PB

Weighted Chins
bw +55 x 10 RP | dropset | bw x 5

Overhead Tricep Rope Press
150 x 17

Trunk Pulldowns (abs)
150 x 25

 

[JerseyDevil]

That's my plan for this week (not actual results - YET)

D'oh! Well you'll nail them .

My Bad JD, Just lazy, will not mess that up again

Damn, I just read my post and I sounded major anal retentive . I didn't mean to sound so harsh. It's cool Iain .

 

[Rocco32]

Good w/o there YM! You still had energy though at the end? Damn, your a machine, LOL. I might incorporate some Rest/pause and or heavy negatives at the end of the sets then.

 

[yellowmoomba]

D'oh! Well you'll nail them .

It felt good to hit my goal on the deads



ROCK - The RP is a nice change of pace. I definitely feel like I pushed myselft yesterday. My lower back is a little sore (as usual) from the deads. I'm sure I'll be recovered for my 1 set of SLDL tomorrow. I see that you are going to do a P/PL/Leg version. Good luck with it!!

Sorry to whore up your Journal YM. JD it is all good, I knew exactly what your were saying I was just playing with ya

 

[tucker01]

Nice Workout YM.

I honestly don't know if I could handle doing only 4 sets per workout. I'd feel so incomplete The strength gains would be nice though.

 

[yellowmoomba]

Sorry to whore up your Journal YM. JD it is all good, I knew exactly what your were saying I was just playing with ya

Would you guys have a cyber hug already....

As far as the workouts go - I figured I'd try it to for 4 - 6 weeks depending on my gains. If I don't gain some strength by week 2 I'll be jonesing to make a change ...

 

[tucker01]

I would just have to severely cut back in cals or I would be fat ass by 6-8 weeks. Fucking slow Metab.

As it is with my current program, I am just at maintance at around 2400 cals a day. It fucking sucks cause I get hungry, but I eat more and I get fat. so freaking frustrating.

2400 is not a lot at all ............ I prefer 3500 but I'm down to about 2600 or so.

 

[tucker01]

Oh I prefer 3500 as well unfortunately I can't afford new clothes every so often. Actually eating like that I would hit about 230lbs and stay there, weird. But I have been there done that.

HIT DAY 2

** Warmed up playing 4 on 4 full court ball for 45 minutes......I hit two PB's today I've been stuck on only doing 9 reps on my Weighted Pullups but I got 10 today



Smith CG Bench press
4 plates x 10 RP

Weighted Pullups
bw +45 x 10 | dropset | bw x 4 * PB

SLDL
255 x 10 * PB

DB Row
140 x 10 Right Arm | 8 Left Arm

Deep Squat Jumps
25lbs x 35 jumps * These are damn hard!!

 

[Rissole]

Damn your strong!! Love it

 

[CowPimp]

Wow, those pullups are impressive. I'm assuming that is a supinated grip you're using. Also, how wide are you going? I find it much harder to go really wide; I was never able to do it at home because I had a doorway pullup bar.

I just throw cardio in too

 

[Rocco32]

Great w/o YM! And congrats on the PB, that's very impressive.

 

[JerseyDevil]

SLDL
255 x 10 * PB

Awesome stuff!

 

[PreMier]

Damn, PB's everywhere. Watch out G dubya

 

[yellowmoomba]

Rissole Thanks. I've got lot of competition on this board I gotta try to keep up with the big guns around here board.

Rock I'm starting to like this "HIT" Stuff especially if I can get PB's in every post (that's the plan)

CowPimp I use a pretty wide overhand grip. I've been stuck on 9 reps for about month on both Weighted Chins and Weighted Pullups. I had some incentive yesterday since I was working out with a couple guys from my football team.

Jersey I'm trying to go up 5 - 10 pounds a week

PM Hopefully you'll see PB's in here often



I was pretty whipped last night. Today's a rest day then my third day of HIT is tomorrow. I'm trying to do three different workouts per week for a total of 12-13 sets per week.

 

[gwcaton]

Damn, PB's everywhere. Watch out G dubya

YM , good looking wo's It's great when the PB's come on a regular basis I'm sure Jake is getting his share of them too. But I don't think he is highlighting them for us

 

[Rocco32]

Yeah, getting PBs everytime like your supposed to do is pretty awesome. Sucks though if you do worse one week than a previous, LOL

 

[PreMier]

YM , good looking wo's It's great when the PB's come on a regular basis I'm sure Jake is getting his share of them too. But I don't think he is highlighting them for us

Na, I am not as strong as I was, before I got sick.

 

[Rocco32]

Na, I am not as strong as I was, before I got sick.

But your still pretty damn strong and you'll be past where you were before in no time!

 

[PreMier]

Thanks David, only time will tell

Thanks - Yeah ... I think PM is sandbagging

ROCK - It's motivation to do more every time

HIT DAY 3

I hit another PB today on my squats. It's nice to know I only have to do one set. It makes my set a little easier knowing it's one tough set.


Squats
225 x 21 RP *PB

Weighted dips
bw +45 x 16 RP

Bent over rows (underhand grip)
185 x 8
* I didn't feel a really good set here. I'm not used to this exercise so I did a set of Cable Rows.

Cable Rows
180 x 15

Upright Row
115 x 15

 

[PreMier]

Nice squats YM. How did 21 feel? When I hit 20 yesterday, my legs were almost cramping they were shaking so bad.

 

[P-funk]

I am gearing up to try 225/40

 

[JerseyDevil]

Awesome YM!

What is it about 225 guys? I would rather have a goal of 20 reps, and keep moving the weight up. 275 x 20 would float my boat .
