More Betterness!!


I actually had a shot of that last night. I NEVER drink liquor. Went down pretty smooth too. I might just have to pick myself up a bottle for the house. You know, just for emergencies. :)

If I drink Patron someone is getting a beat down. Not from me being a dick, but sooner or later someone else will and my tolerance for idiots evaporates on the second shot. Bourbon such as JD? I'm all laughs and a total puss.


I'm not a fan of stairmills for some reason. I like the treadmills much better. Maybe it's just too much for my old ass to deal with perpetually climbing up a set of steps but the tread I can hit for a solid 60 minutes. Or as long as the MMA vid I downloaded lasts :)

Looks like you're doing good on the dips ReproBro. It really is cool as hell to see you making progress.

Im not either. Though I wont exclude it totally from my routine, I see that the only thing its good for is a burn.
 
I can hit the stairmill for an hour now I just usually cut it short because young Rob is with me. Treadmills are too boring to me and I don't run because of my knee, one false move and I'm on my ass. Ellipticals are too easy no matter what level you put them on and the cycles just hurt my ass. I actually sweat on the stairmill, it's the only challenging piece of cardio in the gym. After a few weeks your legs don't burn at all, mine did at first when I wasn't used to it, now I just sweat buckets.

Just switching shit up, being in a caloric deficit and all I know I'm not going to make any strength gains but at least I can improve my endurance. Thanks BC.

Back Squats: (2:00)
45 - 12
135 - 8
225 - 10,10,10 PR

Bent Knee Good Mornings: (2:00)
205 - 10,10,10 PR

How about that shit? Reps were up all over the place. I wasn't even going to go but I got bored and had perhaps my best session in ages. All the other shit I've been doing carried over. Awesome.

Weight was 201 and I'm usually 5 lbs heavier in the evening. Means I lost another pound or 2 and I'm setting PR's. Very happy tonight.

Fuggin cool who ever it happened. Just a thought ... :thinking: ... could it be the warm up that walk gave you?

Perhaps, either way I was pretty stoked. I liked working out after 7 too, the gym was pretty dead.


Those are strong GMs. I fall on my face with 135

Thanks man, they are a lot easier I believe with Bent Knee, but I feel they are more effective because of how much more weight I can handle doing them.

Very strong! I don't even do them :(

I used to hate them until I found out there was a bent knee variation. I saw a video of a powerlifter almost jumping while doing them and I thought they look pretty friggin cool.

Tuesday 8/14/07

- stretch

BB Bench: (1:30)
45 - 12
135 - 12
225 - 10,8,7

Standing Military Press: (1:30)

115 - 10,9,8

Incline DB Press (2:00)
80's - 5,5,5,5

Tricep Pushdowns: (1:00)

150 - 12,10,9

Dips:
BW - 11 (failure)

Welp, these numbers haven't changed much or at all really in a long time which is a good thing actually. Just looking back at this journal I haven't done Flat BB Bench in months and it's holding steady, even in a caloric deficit, and even with only one day a week devoted to upper body so my lower can catch up. It's getting there.

I also saw that I started at 203lbs, most likely dehydrated in the morning and now I'm less than that at night after a day's worth of meals. I'm making extremely slow progress on the cut which seems to be working perfectly in regards to maintaining strength. At points I feel like I'm wasting my time because progress is so slow, but the numbers don't lie. I even got derailed there for a little with the diet and still managed to maintain the lost poundage.

I'd have to say I'm pretty pleased with myself and even more pleased I've been journaling. Well worth the 10 minutes a day I spend to log it. :)
