630x4, nice Curt!!!!! That was one leg at a time right?? LOL

 

[Curt James]

^^^^ lol Don't I wish.

Not especially deep but respectable, imo. Was nervous about adding that extra 90 lbs.

That is a huge jump, nice numbers for real.

^^^^ Could be a... pharmaceutical psychological response. I started a Halo Extreme cycle just days ago. Believe I'm highly influenced by just that psychological confidence of taking a serious supplement. The product couldn't have kicked in that quickly. Doing just two capsules per day while I've read again and again that three caps is the so-called sweet spot.

We'll see what results I get. I've loved Super DMZ Rx and Cyanostane Rx was a solid supp as well.

Whatever the cause, a 90 pound jump is huge. I love SDMZ, need to try Halo and Osta soon as well. Getting ready to cruise on my TRT dose for a couple months, need all the help I can get.

I'm pretty eager to try the new DMZ formula to compare it to the old, as well as the Osta!!

I'm taking two caps of Halo Extreme per day right now and will be taking Osta Rx in four weeks.

Should be good!

The weights are going up.

Have a good weekend.

Thank you. You, too, omerta!

Always impressive leg press numbers!!!

I'll have to take a video next workout. Never confident with my depth, but it's not as bad as I've seen!

 

[Nightowl]

Curt,

wow nice on the leg press, the numbers are great! I will be in the gym with workout buddy tomorrow. Looking forward to easing into the cusp warm ups again. Screwed them up something bad back through my tennis days. freakin moon balls!

Will press one leg at a time and try to increase my workouts this week. Will think of you!

 

[Curt James]

^^^^ Was doing two leg leg presses and my knees are paying for them now. lol

Have a great week!

 

[Curt James]

Started a cycle of Halo Extreme recently. Showing strength gains already.

Weight was 204.2 lbs. wearing a t-shirt and heavyiron-worthy jeans shorts.

BP was 125 over 82 earlier tonight.

Gears!

Whatcha dosing it at??

 

[Anabolic5150]

Happy Memorial Day!!!!

 

[Pittsburgh63]

Happy Memorial Day Curt!!

 

[Curt James]

Gears!

Whatcha dosing it at??

Two capsules per day. One bottle is enough for two caps e/d for four weeks with a few caps left over. I've read several times that three caps is the "sweet spot".

 

[Curt James]

Happy Memorial Day!!!!

Same to you, good sir!

 

[Curt James]

Happy Memorial Day Curt!!

Thank you. Hope yours is a good one!

[Anabolic5150]

Nice leg press numbers, how's the shoulder? Jacked my right one up today doing shoulder presses on the Smith. Not too happy but the wife says its probably just a strain.

 

[Nightowl]

Curt,

My little one said, that is awesome! I must agree with her on that. Nice movement and form is there...how much... 630lbs! Oh, I will have to take a pass on that, but I will let my workout buddy know this, she'll love it. I cried at 270lb...knowing in months I will be able to, if I practice. I may not be able to walk all that great though.LOL

 

[Burr]

Curt, are you wrapping your knees when you do leg presses? I wrap and belt, I use to do 1400 plus my fat ass girl friend on top of the machine.

AH, life was great BUT always WRAP!! From the bottom outside over the top pulling the knee in!!!!

Have a Happy

Shoulder's good, but I skipped rotator work today. Dumb. Hope your shoulder is just a strain.

I'm sure slower form, deeper reps at 500 lbs. could work just as well or better. But it's fun to add plates! Do you have a set of weights at home for your little one? I have to buy a weight set for my nephews! I wish I still had my concrete set from Sears. What memories!

Was watching YouTube vids of wrapping techniques today. Never have wrapped, but realize it's the best advice.

Have a Happy!

Squats 135 X 6, 155 X 6, 205 X 5, 5, 210 X 6
Incline db bench 45's X 8, 55's X 6, 65's X 5, 5 (very low incline)

That's it. Short and sweet. Was happy with the 210 lbs. on squats. Most weight I've done for reps in a very long time.

 

[x~factor]

That Leg Press was crazy!!!

 

[Anabolic5150]

Shoulder's good, but I skipped rotator work today. Dumb. Hope your shoulder is just a strain.

Feels much better, doing my rotator work daily. At our age we have to take as much precaution as we can. We get hurt easier and heal much slower then those damn punk kids!!

Nice, short session. Sometimes those are the ones that do the most for us.
