295 felt heavy. It just felt heavy. Eh, fuck it. I got bigger fish to fry. Next week my rep range will switch.. 6 sets of 4 reps. Maybe less, not sure.

Spider Rows were much better.

Squats were touchy and Ill explain in a minute..

Skipped hams..Ill explain later.

arms were fine, calves were fine, jesus Ill just say it.

My back isnt feeling good. Looks as if 275 is all I can conventionally deadlift right now. Hopefully not forever, but with that rep scheme, its just too much. Whats funny, is that I remember that day feeling off with form.. Well it took its toll.

Now I have to back off, but its fine, cuz my workout week is done, I am looking forward to some days off, but well see.

Shit, and I was hoping to return to at least 3 plates on each side like the good old days..
 
Just be glad you have the mentality to recognize you may have a slight injury and back off.

Lower back pain is a total bitch though, man. I get it from time to time (oddly enough its playing up the last day or two...)

Also, hope the next date goes well :thumb:

Oh I didnt know I had a reply!

Yeah well, every time I curled down onto the bench, I felt pain in my back. Felt like a charlie horse as I rolled over the bulged spot. Thats not good. I am kinda upset about it, but Id rather be upset than on a surgery schedule..

My hamstrings are sore from my conventionals...I dont know...are sore muscles considered tight? My NASM book doesnt say it specifically.. If theyre tight, there going ot be pulling on everything else, making my back more inflammed...

In any case, I am stretching the shit out of them. Shouldve seen me today... Gonna be a ninja by September at this rate.
 
how about the 2nd date?
heh... "older guys want only one thing"...
what a crock! ALL guys only want one thing....
:D

:D

I guess my 2nd date is on friday, were scheduled to see a movie. It was just mentioned, so Ill follow up.:bulb:

This girl is...nice. She is and as attractive as it is, its a turn off in someways. First off, i feel fucking really stupid for even thinking this much about this 18 year old, but I suppose its better than thinking about the married woman Ive been banging too..:hot:

Anyway, hah, some odd shit has come about..

1. I actually had a 190min phone call with her one night. Kids do this, but I remember doing it with the married chick at the beginning..
2. Her mom wanted to invite me to dinner!!!:eek2: Normally, I am all for it. I like the family get togethers and it reinforces the nice girl image. However, her mom knows how old I am, so i wonder if its dinner or an interview she wants.
3. The girl wanted to buy a new outfit for our date (shes been to this fancy resturant many times, so it wasnt like she wanted to look for the place), she did her nails (she said she never does them), and she was nervous. :shrug:

So! It looks like the girl likes me..a lot. However, I need some affection to remind me that we are adults.... A little heavy kissing can hint on how good this can be, right?

I have been getting dominated on the bench press!

Indeed you are, but dont frown, cuz, well I dont know what you bench now, so you can be bullshitting me and with my cut coming up, the bench will go down.

What's a spider row??? And French Press???

Bench looks shit hot.

Let me see if I can find pics, but youve done them before.

Spider Row = Supported Row
French Press = Overhead Tricep Extension

Spider Rows are done on this.

On a similiar subject, Spider Curls are done with your face down too. (Turn the preacher curl pad backwards, making your upper arm perpendicular to the floor.)

This is a French Press. I normally do them standed.

M.J.H. has a vid of doing a set of them in his journal with PERFECT form. :yes:
 
Yeah, a definite NO on the dinner. Waaaaaay too soon! That's a few months down the road. You haven't even had a 2nd date!!

And yes, this date = heavy kissing and that's all. Pace yerself. If you need sex get it elsewhere for now. :)
 
MJH's Frech presses they looked like a combination of OH presses and a variation of a push press. :)
 
Thanks Akira.

I understand you're reserve about this girl, it's hard to deal with the young part, but fuck it, if it seems to work, I say go with the flow.
 
like goob said.
oh..and dinners with the gir's parents are ALWAYS interviews. so what if she's a bit younger than you...treat her well, and see how it turns out.
it sounds like this isn't just somebody u wanna jump-n-dump...so be good.
Instead o dinner...how about dessert instead? Will be a bit less 'formal' and less stressful.

Hah! I can imagine that shit! "Would you like to come over for dinner? ~No. But Ill come for the Brownie Surprise."

But yeah, burner, goob, I like her. Kinda wish I didnt or something cuz what if I get hooked beofre I go to school? Its 3 hours away? Ah fuck it. Here I go focusing on the negative again. And this negative wont put on size.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHA:roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao: :roflmao:

YES ! Its exactly what I thought when I watched it! Its so funny to see me, you, and repro ALL think the same thing. You got 3 lifters all saying what it LOOKS like, youd think, if you were him, youd work on form cuz...well, how can you miss the flaws??????

Ok do you guys come back to your last week's entry and think of what to do next?

Well, since my back has been touchy, I am thinking about caution, but this is my last week. My plan was to do 6 sets of 4 reps with heavier weight, but I cant go that much heavier! I mean, I dont know, but thats the point. I am going to just have to have a screwy day and stop when I feel pain.

Get ready for some odd looking set numbers..:banned:
 
I reckon you go for a random day. I do these once in a while. Basically, you go in without a plan, and just do what the hell you feel like, throwing in more unusual movements into the bargain - like squat presses.

Random workouts can be a lot of fun as a one off.
 
Great Day

Active Stretched

*I am going ot jump in here and describe this. This is the heaviest Ive gone since even way before my injury. This is with perfect form, all the way down, no straps, no belts, just pure, raw....FEAR. Yes, I was scared shitless this whole time. 335lbs? It was easy, but form was starting to fade. I saw a little bending over and my core was no longer tight, so fuck this, 335lbs is good for me! Not bad for a guy with herniated disk. ;)

I wonder if I am in a great mood today cuz of how I woke up. I got one of those alarm clocks that can play CDs, so last night I thought, "hmm, why not wake up to the Real World by Matchbox 20?" I love that song and whatdoyaknow, I woke up smiling. Ever fucking done that? I am sure its not often..

Anyway, it wasnt too much of a surprise that I was spent when I got to shoulders. I was going to do 6 sets of 4 reps of 185lbs. :laugh: Yeah keep dreaming dickface. :grumble:

Rows and Presses were a bit heavier with 8 reps instead of 10, but I didnt touch the rests.

No pain today. Thank fucking god. :bow:
 
oh and since when did you get so strong on your lifts? It seems only a couple of weeks ago you were afraid of this and scared of that, and now all of a sudden you are like superman in here. Is there something you wanna tell us? Are you on a cycle?? :D

But seriously, there is some good stuff going on in here lately, keep it up man :thumb:
 
good job on the lifts!
oh...it's a mental thing why you woke up the way you did.
U have to tell yourself to get up in a good mood. Do what you have to do to prep the night before...4 you...the thought of waking up to a good tune works.
If u dread having to wake up...then that's the kind of morning u are gonna have. if u go to bed knowing that you are going to wake up with energy and enthusiasm...then you will. Set your mind and achieve it.

heh...only u woulda gone the route of the brownie surprise answer... :)
Ok...so if u like her...then explore it. U may get his by a bus tomorrow...don't waste a moment on a 'what-if'...
u may think it's BS...but take it from someone who nearly had his life force prematurely separated from his body...don't waste an opportunity.
(and get pics)
:p

To tell you the truth, this was the first time I went to the gym thinking of getting some numbers, not worry about reps, have adequate (jesus christ, sp?) rest, and focus on form. Ive just always held back really in the light of fear, but today I wanted to do my best before I do this cut.

If I started to feel pain at 185, I wouldve stopped. I did this until I felt pain or fatigued, whichever came first. I wasnt going for a max, but while were on that, the max in my sig is bogus Id say. I dont remember how low I went and if I used proper form.

Ive always had the strength just not the will or the balls.


Burner
Thats really good advice, man. It really is and yet, I am a "what if" thinker. I just always want to be prepared for the worst, but I then tend to focus on it. Its really shitty.
The happiest moments of my life were of times when I wasnt thinking. Now if I can just get to do that more often!
 
it's a matter of 'training'. I was listening to a cd, and the guy makes a point. You have to train yourself to be a winner, as well as you have to train yourself to be a loser. Might as well train to be a winner.
It takes a while.
your car has a cd player...if u spend more time there than other places that u can just listen to things, (which is what I do) get some self-motivational cd's form the library. (I've been doing this for a few months now.) so..instead of cranking up the tunes, thinking u are a rock star...enroll into 'mobile U' and make the most of your time.
I listened to a great course by Zig Ziggler, Anthony Robbins, Craig Forte.
maybe get those or things like it...and break your current mind set.
Trust me...it helps. Oh..and it's not a quick fix...it's something u work on...continually.

so...u CAN do that more often. U just have to retrain your thought processes...
 
oh and since when did you get so strong on your lifts?

He's even stronger, he just doesn't know it.

I'd say the bench number in his sig is bogus too. Only I think it's higher. I met up with him and spotted him when he hit that, and it was all chest and triceps, using perfect "bodybuilding" form. A little technique and that number is closer to 400.

Strong ass mo-fo.
