DEAD-ication!

P-RR-S implements periodization. I think it's a great program, and it's well thought out. Gopro is a smart guy.

That's great you keep workout logs. I have done so almost since I started lifting again. I find it's a must, especially with P-RR-S, since you're changing parameters around so much.

Yea I know it implements it...just different paremeters then westside. I sometiems have to stop reading some of gopros works b/c they are just so overwhelming....he knows so much its like I try to absorb so much I forget how to tie my shoes.

Yea its a must with prrs....if you dont write your workouts down there is no way IMHO you can maximize your workouts week to week.

 

[DeadBolt]

dayum! PR on all but face pulls....I am impressed DB...you just keep increasing everything!

Thanks sweety! I'm tryin....I'm workin hard at it.....I guess you guys will be able to tell me if it has paid off with the pics soon!

 

[DeadBolt]

Fantastic workout DB!!!! Shame I'm not still up in Jersey, it would be a blast to workout with you.

Oh that would be great! I haven't had a training partner in ages! We would both be able to benefit

 

[DeadBolt]

Hey, Bolt! Super nice workout there

Thought you might like to see a pic of the one and only deer feeder I've ever built. I gave that to my father in-law for Chrismas in 1993. Now it costs him about 600# of corn a year to feed the deer in his backyard

Thanks bro!!

Hey thats an awsome gravity feeder there! Good work buildin that one! Ya mine nibble on the corn I put out but they are loving all the fresh produce I put out every sunday more....been a long winter they love the fresh stuff! I put tons of fruit and veggies out every sunday and it lasts them for a few days.

4-27-06 POWER Quads, Bis, Tri's

Well sorry i haven't been on much lately....been really busy. Opted to get more sleep then come here in the wee hours of the morning.

Never went to the gym yesterday...had to be at the firehouse by 6am and my gym doesn't open till 5:30. So I just cancled my circuit training and pushed everything back a day.

----------------------------------

Today was a decent workout for not getting much sleep! Not to many PRs LOL but I had some!

Quads:
Squats
205*6
2*225*4 PR!!

Leg Press
450*6
2*540*4 PR!!

Leg Ext
2*155*6

Bi's
Oly BB Curl
3*95*5

HS Preacher Curl
80*7
90*5 PR!!

Tri's
CG Bench

BB Skull Crusher
70*6
80*6 PR!!

DB French Press
70*6
80*5

All in all a good workout.

FINALLY found a good stance for my squats and I feel very comfortable squating in it so I will work with this one for a while.

Had some hand/wrist pain in the left hand....CG's really bothered it so I cut some sets out of tri's b/c the pain wasn't a good one. Not sure what it was....but I dont think its anything to worry about.

 

[Burner02]

welcome to the 2-plate club! Good feeling to get up under those plates, eh?

 

[b_reed23]

woohoo! still at least 2 PR...go DB!!!!!!!!!

oopsy..make that 4

 

[gwcaton]

Go DB !!

 

[Devlin]

I count 4 PR's and no :thumdwn: or so a very good workout.

Oh that would be great! I haven't had a training partner in ages! We would both be able to benefit

Only problem is I'm in Kentucky now with no plans to return to NJ unless it an absolute must.

 

[King Silverback]

Great w/o BRother Bolt, glad you found the right stance, thats huge for any exercise!!! I think I might nix the squats and go with Front Squats and Leg Presses for a while, what thinks you???

 

[Burner02]

I like front squats...but the weights are lighter...and I don't much care for the choking feeling from the bar next to my throat. I would do those occasionally after my normal squats, light weight, higher reps for a burn off.
Definately feel them in the quads!

 

[DeadBolt]

Burner: Thanks bud....yea I think by me maxing out 2 weeks ago I felt more weight then I'm use to so today the weight didn't even bother me...seemed light ya know!

Billie: Thanks hun!

Gary: Thanks man! I'm baaaaaack!

Dev: What I'm not enough of a reason J/K yea I dont blame ya I hate this god awfull state!!!

Arch: Thanks bud! I tried front squats many moons agop and didn't like them but I want to give them a go again! I was thiking of doing them instead of hack squats next week. I say that would be a great idea switching up squats....they are a great builder but sometimes you need different types of muscle stimulations. You could vary them all....keep them legs guessing!!!

Burner II: I use to get massive shoulder pain when front squating but I am willing to give em a go again once I get to research the form a little better.

 

[Devlin]

Dev: What I'm not enough of a reason J/K yea I dont blame ya I hate this god awfull state!!!

Sorry, but pretty much the only reason I would return to NJ would be for a death or serious injury/illness in the immediate family other than that it not happening. Now you could always make a trip to the beautiful Blue Grass State Lots of country, green pastures, mountains...plenty of places to go hiking, camping, hunting

Yea I hear ya!

Did I mention the cost of living is cheaper here? There are also plenty of jobs for Firemen/EMT/Medic's around here especially since they roll a firetruck along with every ambulance call. I understand the $$ issues all too well.

One day I'll see the area....I'm determined in my life time to visit every state for vacation.

 

[Burner02]

if I had the time / resources..I'd love to take a summer...have a convertable and just go tour the US.
