I had a chicken bbq pizza a couple of weeks ago for a cheat. It was fantastic.

We're getting a new NYPD (New York style Pizza Delivery place) near where I live, I can't wait! That pizza is so good - it'd make for a very nice cheat meal!

Well! Looks like I was over shooting some shit today, eh? I wanted to do 6 sets of 3 reps on some heavy weight, but its not time for it. :shrug: Shoulda known!

Even my DB Rows sucked a bit. My left hand kept losing grip, but I guess it was a good grip workout! :callme:

Cable rows were too light. DB Presses were just right.

Close grips were fucked cuz of fatigue.

I knew I was screwed before I got on the eliptical. Taking another ephedra right before cardio on an empty stomach is a recipe for disaster. In fear of my LIFE, I decided to stop.

Doing some evaluating today on the squats. Eh, not too shabby. I thought it was a bit light for the rests, but ok. This wont be my template anyway.

Lunges were tough.

Calves were really tough. Might be too heavy.
 
Fat Bar Static Holds; 185lbs for 4 sets, 31 s, 21s, 21s, 18s
Wish my gym had a fat bar. I've never seen one. It's just a big fat bar I guess, right?
I think OH days are more least favorite.
OH days... hmm... :thinking:... thx for the idea.
I did the dead and squats numbers before my disk herniation.
:eek:Shit! Have I not read far enough back in your journal? When did that happen? How serious is it? How can you still be doing monster ATG squats? WHY are you still doing monster ATG squats!? Back herniations are crazy-serious, no?

First time Ive had one. Good stuff.

How long are your workouts?

My workouts last 1:30 or less. Usually 1:05-1:15.

How am I doing the squats? VERY CAREFULLY. As far as my numbers go, Ill go so far to say they were made with BAD FORM too.

Kinda weird...I go lower than I ever did before and my numbers arent too far off despite my injury. Just goes to show you that going down all the way wont cause problems. :yes:

Shoot. I can't get all the way down any more. I'm trying to switch to an extra-wide power-lifter(type) stance, to reduce lower back & knee sheering forces. I can't go wide and deep (flexibility? hip design?).
 
Oh, well, my last journal entry is GONE!

Not much to say. Bench can go up easily if I want to keep those rests.

DB Rows were kinda tough, but I only have one more set of DBs to go. :lifter:

Those DBs sure fired back during the presses. :pissed: Guess I wont be so strong after benching eh? These will remain until I get them.

Cable Rows can go up.




My last journal entry had me Conventional Deadlifting 275lbs, DOH, for the same volume (no straps!). GMs were 135lbs for 4 sets of 6. Yeah...thats about right. :thumb:

Another sharp pain felt near my asshole in my 225lb warm up. :scratch: Went away when I slowed the reps down. DONT BOUNCE FROM THE BOTTOM! Anyway, who knows why I gave up, but fuck it, this is my first 5x5 with this weight in a while.

Unilateral was too easy.

Calves, fuck em.

I did a moderate cardio pace today cuz I want to get some wind built up in me.

My cardiovascular is weird (or maybe I am going to be the first one to put it out there). Ill warm up, get a good pace started, but then ill run out of breath on maybe the first 2 sets. However, on my 2nd exercise, I am never running out of breath. Same thing for cardio...ill warm up, then star the 'run' but be in bad shape after 5 min...however, if I hold out, my "second wind(?)" kicks in and I can go on forever. :wits:

Pullups werent too easy. Neither were the OH presses. These weights have to go up though since I did them. Its weird though cuz the rests were too long. I guess the strength wasnt there. :eek2:

My chinups caught up with me. :pissed: I kinda called it though. :doh:

My Standing BB presses were prolly the most satisfying as I felt the workout itself. Leave it to lighter weights to do it. I had planned a=on 135lbs but the failure with the chins recommended otherwise.

Threw Hises in cuz, well, as far as accessory work goes, Id like to have bigger traps (and calves) than anything else. My grip during this program will be aided by straps so thats out and my arms are already big so fuck them too. :paddle:

OK! There are my 1st week's numbers. I am going to do an Alternating Periodization program. Next week I will decrease the intensity, then get back to the numbers. Bench, Pull ups, deads, and squats will be the exercises for the numbers.
 
Thanks guys. Yeah, one week will be all out and the next week will be moderate.

I was going to workout this morning, but I coudlnt sleep cuz of 2 performances I had to do today. Ive got one more to do in front of the faculty. Not sure why the teacher is putting all of us through this. I can tell people are nervous about their next performance thats in front of the faculty (actually anyone can come see it) cuz they are forgetting their lines CONSTANTLY and that just shouldnt be happening NOW vs. the beginning of the year. Even my scene partner forgot a line. I didnt. ;)

Ive got the rest of the afternoon to relax and I am definetly not going to the gym at this fucking hour on a monday. But maybe later...

FUCK CARDIO

I used a bunch of single legged RDLs to warm me up today and I wonder if that was such a good idea..

DB Romanians were easy, but my grip was failing...and it was my right hand! :eek2: Thats right Mr. Smiley, I didnt get that shit either.

Glutes were still hard, but at least this time I was able to complete a full set scheme.

Leg Curls were a bit of a joke. I aimed low, but this was yet another new machine. Cybex Eagle? Eh. Anyway, I could hardly keep balance after all these hamstring workouts.

I just couldnt go 3 days in a row without working out, but I HAD TO. I was pretty fucking useless, but I still got some shit up. I even forgot my water bottle. :lame:

DB Presses were ok. Id say they were tough, but I was in no shape today and I still got them up, so this was too light.

Rows were light too.

Dips and Inverted Rows were all I could muster. :cry:

Felt pretty :thumb: today. 40lb Lunges seems pretty light, but my cardio has been flawed..but what really got me this time was the BURN. Metabolic work anyone?

Leg press was a 2nd verse that was the same as the first. Burn Burn Burn

Calves burned too. :lol:

Well today was a lot of fun...

Has anyone tried this shit? Its not as easy as it seems. I got to 16 reps on both the chins and the pulls, but dropped to catch a breath. Next thing I know, I cant get past 5, then 3, then 2! Good Shocker!

OHs arent really a priority, but I still didnt want to go easy. :shrug:

The scaptions....:mad: God damn. Burn city, but damn did I look good doing it. :flex: WITH 30lb DBs! :tomato:

Close grips were ok. Curls I knew were going to be hard considering the pulls.
