Sapphire said:Hey DB!!
You are doing great!! Don't be discouraged.Eating clean is HARD! BUT you can do it!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was away and eating clean was tough, so much junk and good tasting stuff BUT I only ate chicken, fish and greens, and 1 piece of toast and egg whites for breakfast.

Oh man I love the stuff..but I can't even say I like it anymore b/c I never got to taste it LOL.CowPimp said:Haha! Tiramisu is awesome; Riss must be a very powerful presence to detour you from some finger licking.
At least I'm not the only one LOL...its not easy but Im gonna try my best.Rissole said:Hahahaha.... Thats great DB. I remember feeling that way when i was on diet with GP... ahhhh i'm turning into a freak, i even remember writing that in my old journal. That is the kind of comittment that will get you to your goal though buddy
stick at it
<------Yes it is my eye![]()
I can se your point...but your grip is gonna wear out WAY before your back...does youtr gym have a gravitron machine? I started out on that. I did my sets of 10 and decresed the resistance until I was able to do BW..then like Arnold said..I would do BW until I could get 50 reps out. (my goal was 50 reps or more within 5 sets) THEN..I would add weight. I also swithc up..some weeks, I do added weight..others I just do BW for reps.DeadBolt said:Whats up bro...glad to see ya around these parts. I think b/c my back isn't strong enough to handle that kind of weight during apull up all other muscles are incorporated. Sorta like when you see a kid benching with to much weight..he uses every msucle in his body to get the weight back up.
I do not use straps anymore. I use to use them for shrugs but no longer. I need my grip strength to increase but direct forearm work never helped so I eliminated straps to try to improve it. My back is at the point that my grip strength is holding it back but I don't like relying on straps.!

My regular pull ups are lacking again..so I am doing the ewighted supp. grip pull ups with my WG pull ups..to bring them back up.
what is your form like? Where do you look, when u are doing the pull up?
Is your back arched? looking up? Squeazing the blades together as you come up?
You aint kiddin...that felt like an intense cardio LOL. My heart was racing the entire time!rock4832 said:Damn that's a good w/o Dead! I bet that was tiring as hell LOL!
I know the feeling...I have missed 3 riggin days in a row now...I need to win the lottery....DeadBolt said:Well today no gym!![]()
I have to much stuff to do....
Tell me about it! I am about to leave for the funeral now...only like 7 degrees outside!!!!! We have to do like an hour and a half event thing at the cemetary...just our uniforms so its damn cold out. Hoping I don't get sick. I put an exra pair of sox and some thermals on. I can't afford to get sick.Burner02 said:I know the feeling...I have missed 3 riggin days in a row now...I need to win the lottery....
Thanks man....the weight is coming down but so are my lifts slightly. Can't wait to start my bulk again...march 7th is coming even faster then march 6th LOL. I'm dying to eat more food!!Burner02 said:nice WO! especially @ 169lbs!
well, if u ever have to go out like that again..an old trick I learned in the military: wear panty hose..they will keep your legs warm. (don't let your friends see tho)

Nice workout DB !DeadBolt said:Thanks man....the weight is coming down but so are my lifts slightly. Can't wait to start my bulk again...march 7th is coming even faster then march 6th LOL. I'm dying to eat more food!!
O hell yea panty hose work wonders LOL. A few of my guys did that and I've done it when I went hunting. I just don't have regular access to them heh! Thanks for the tip though.
Psst...your a freak!!!! LOLgwcaton said:Nice workout DB !
you mean my lifts are supposed to go down when I cut ?
Ah yes , that makes sense. Your wo's are intense thats for sureDeadBolt said:Psst...your a freak!!!! LOL
I unfortunatly have gone to a level where I do not have enough energy to really increase my strength lol. I am not really looking for strength right now though...simply using my workouts as an intense cardio...so there are very little rest intervals between sets. I feel this is why I have lost strength...my muscles are not trained for endurance. I expected my lifts to go down so I am not to worried....the lack of carbs really kills my lifts. I'll do fine on one set but then the next I have half the energy.
Yea I try heh...I only take maybe 30 seconds rest between sets. I keep em movin fast! Once the comp is over and my bulk starts I'll go back to a standard p/rr/s routine with PLENTY of cals to go around heh. I think my strength will do just fine then.gwcaton said:Ah yes , that makes sense. Your wo's are intense thats for sure![]()
well..actually u do..DeadBolt said:Thanks man....the weight is coming down but so are my lifts slightly. Can't wait to start my bulk again...march 7th is coming even faster then march 6th LOL. I'm dying to eat more food!!

No mom lives no where near me and girlfriend lives like 30 minutes away...on such short notice I didn't have a female who could provide me with any LOL. And I wasn't about to go to the store at 6:30am for panty hose....Burner02 said:well..actually u do..
your mom live close? Your girlfriend?
or...get a list of things on a piece of paper that YOU need from the store. Make sure leggs is one of them. Get the 'egg' act natural @ the checkout stand. Make joke about almost forgetting them..again...GF is gonna kill you...
(this is just an idea..I've never actually deployed it...duno if works or not..)

"because I am a drop sexy man, hunny...."DeadBolt said:People I talk to look at my forearms, hands, and arms and are like eww why do those things show like that.

Max 30 seconds rest in between sets! Gotta keep the heart pumping! Great intensity man !!
I tried to follow the rep range week or p/rr/s...6-8/8-10/10-15. I think I accomplished my goal...somewhat. I will aim for better weights and rep ranges from now on. Overall really solid w/o...veins are really showing now. Got em going from the shoulder clear down to my wrist. Little ones in my shoulders are coming out as well. I am enjoying the look LOL.
Calves and abs were an experiment today. I superseted them all the entire time. Here is what it looked like: (I don't know the names of calf work sorry)
standing calf raise
kneeling cable crunch

crunch on bench with legs upright

Those were all doneback to back...0 rest in between. Really had the heart rate going and sweating up a storm. I enjoyed it. I did so many b/c I had so much energy it was insane. I finished my bi/tri workout in like 20-30 minutes so I still had a ton of energy left over.
If I don't end up doing anything tonight I may go back to the gym for some more cardio but I'm not sure...if so it will be low intensity. Thats if none of my friends make plans. So odds are I might be LOL.
