CourtQueen's TP-PT Log

[CourtQueen]

LOL - Actually, I went to your journal to make sure. I said something to TP in the forum on that. It should be worded differently. I totally didn't read it that way......

Oh well, it was a nice easy day at least You are doing awesome Novo! Stop scaring all those boys out of the gym now.

 

[Novo]

You described it perfectly in the TP forum, that was my interpretation exactly. And while it seems stupid now, knowing what was meant, I think the wording was fuzzy. Which is odd, you know, being the legal sort ... you'd think he'd be rather pedantic about expressing himself more carefully

Digging myself a dangerous hole here? maybe so, but I'll risk it

I'm trying a new attitude at the gym CQ - it's called Bite Me and I'm now TRYING to scare the boys! Bastards didn't want to play, so now I'll blody well give them a reason!

Glad you had a good weekend chicky!

 

[CourtQueen]

Yes you are!!!! TP is going to get you for that one.

I knew how to do dropsets...

 

[CourtQueen]

Ok, maybe I just haven't had the privilege of reading enough weight lifting literature which gives dropset definitions. BEGESUS

SMARTASS

 

[CourtQueen]

so, on my way to the gym and there is a suv in front of me with the company logo "Twin Peaks". I had to laugh. I couldn't figure out if that was a sign enforcing the fact that I should continue down the road to the gym or to think twice about it and possibly just head back to work...... I went to the gym..... Deadlifts kicked my ass

[Triple Threat]

Dont worry...your secrets are safe with me.

About as safe as an 8 year old boy alone on a camping trip with Michael Jackson.

Much like a cuddly lion cub turns into a vicious lioness, our Novo has changed from a meek lifter to a hard-core bad-ass. Well done!

These dropsets SUCK

 

[CourtQueen]

6/9 I had absolutely no energy and going into week 4 of this 2nd phase just was horrible. Doing dropsets in this way just about killed me. I had to drop my weight on everything in order to get the 1/2-1/3 reps in...

Incline DB 40x7 1/2sx6 20x10
40x6 35x2 1/2s 0 20x6
35x6 1/2sx3 17.5x

Flat BB Press 85x7 1/2sx8 22.5sx8 (I used dbs here for the drop)
85x4 1/2s0 22.5x6
75x6 1/2s4 22.5x4

Low xover cables 30x8 1/2sx8 10x8
30x8 1/2s0 10x8
30x6 1/2s0 10x8

Standing Calf 180x8 1/2sx8 90x10
180x8 1/2sx8 90x8
165x8 1/2sx8 90x8

Skipped Seated Calf

Well this was the only day I got in for Phase 2 week 4...
I don't know how the hell you guys do the drop sets this way with the partial reps in between.... I hated it. I felt like I had to drop the weight significantly in order to get through 3 working sets this way.

I proceeded to get a triple whammy after this.... First a cold, then Aunt Flo, and the some stomach virus..... And of course the need to throw a bday party in the mists of it all

 

[CourtQueen]

Ok, I did do a small workout last Thursday and then it was volleyball on Saturday
So, back in the gym today..... Finally.
Phase 3 Week1

Incline BB Press 70x9 75x9
Standing BB Military Press 65x7 65x7
WG Dips Assisted x8 x7
CG Bpress 70x9 70x9
Squat 135x9 155x7
SLDL 90x9x9
BB Row 60x6 60x6 (Is this supposed to be upright?)
Chin up Assisted x9 -10x6
Standing DB Curls 15sx9 20sx6
Superset Cable Curls/Reverse Cable Pressdowns (are these supposed to be singles?)
30x8/40x7-6(r-l) 30x6/30x9
Superset Standing Calves/BB Shrugs
180x8/80x9 180x9/90x9

I went to the gym twice today. I did the chinups and the supersets afterwork and everthing else was during lunch. Just ran out of time. I was pushing 50minutes on that first part.....

There it is. I don't look forward to doing measurements in the morning but will.....

 

[Novo]

I missed you! Glad to see you're still alive and kicking CQ, hopefully feeling better

 

[Var]

Nice to see you back, CQ!

 

[Novo]

She came back She went again Novo and Var missed her ...

 

[PreMier]

I miss her too

 

[nikegurl]

me too. me too!

 

[CourtQueen]

Hi ya'all!!!

I've been really bad about getting my butt in here. With the big brother watching at work these days I've thought it best to post here at home..... however I never seem to get on at home.

Ugh - I just got back from a volleyball tourney in the mountains.... YIKES - not enough sunscreen. More motivation to get in the gym though. I refuse to look my age

As I posted in the TPPT program I'm done. I will post the last workouts that I did in Phase 3 but I hate Phase 3. There is no way I can get those workouts in because they take me way too long.

And Nike/Pitboss..... Manhattan Beach here I come end of July officially. I'll drop you both a line because we all have to get together!!!!!

More to come....

I MISS YOU ALL TOO... And Novo, I can't wait to catch up on your journal, funny woman.
