Nasty, Freaky, Ugly Size

IML Gear Cream!
Today was high rep legs.

Safety Bar squat - 315*25(+5reps),315*21(+1)
Low close hack, holding stretch in the hole - 135*20, 15
Single Leg curl - 50kg*20
Lying leg curl feet together - 80kg*18, 14
Calf Raise - 80kg*20, 18, 15, 14
Drag curls - 70*24, 22, 20

The hacks wrecked my quads. Holding that deep stretch in the bottom was almost unbearably painful after rep twelve.

The legs together on the leg curl. If you haven't done those and your hamstrings are weak, especially the upper inner portion along with Adductor, try them. Those fuckers put so much tension in that area it's silly.
 
First, kiddo is out! Got her yesterday and I'm thrilled with how she seems to feel. We've set up counseling for her going forward and there are things we all have to work on to be a better family unit but, it's moving in the right direction.

Got my updates from the coach yesterday.

Going to take the weekend off and just focus on getting the stress out and food going back in regularly.

I missed four meals during the week but the stress and sleep issues really impacted my look.

Free meal tomorrow for my birthday as well.
 
Wife spoiled the shit out of me for my birthday too btw.

Bought me this duffel/lunch kit combo from six pack since my back pack from them can't hold all my meals. This one easily holds six plus all my junk.

An inversion table that should be coming in Thursday.

And, she got me the new Scott Stevenson book. Excited to crack it open and see what tricks he's put in there.

Upper loading

Lower loading

So when I have a lower loading day following a high rep leg day that involves safety bar Squats I've been pulling back the weight a tad and using that session as a "connection" day where I still keep weights heavy but I put all my focus on the stretch and eccentric movement.

I have a pretty noticeable imbalance between my left and right leg so this is one of the ways I'm trying to bring that up.

High close leg press - 14*25, 14*22 drop 10*18 drop 6*failure (no idea I just closed my eyes and died)
Extension - 130*24, 21
Lying curl - 150*22, 17
Adductor/Abductor - 130*25, 22, 20
Calf press - 300*25, 19, 18, 15

in my experience emphasis or a hold on the stretch (eccentric) motion stimulates growth and really recruits those fibers... I lol at ?closed my eyes and died"

No training the last two days

Updates sent this morning and we decided to cruise this coming week so I'm only going to go in for my muscle round days.

Comparing these updates with two weeks ago you can definitely see I'm not popping like I was so, the cruise is needed. I guess ten weeks is a bit long to blast anyways.
 
Coach and I decided to cruise in training this week.

Will only go train twice and do my regular muscle rounds on those two days.

Eat, massage gun, inversion table, rest.
 
Back in today. Felt SO fresh. No pains. Got my "switch" back too.

Bb row - 385*11, 385*10(+2)
Rack Pull - 595*10

Bb bench - I suck still 275*6, 225*10
Cable fly - 150*10
Hammer shoulder press - 270*10, 8

I'm either going to stop bench pressing or move it in my training. I've always been strong overhead pressing but flat chest, nah. Will keep trying to find the right formula.

Second post workout meal -
10oz chicken breast
2 cups rice
1oz almonds
1/2 avocado

Upper loading

Small changes. Used Different grip one arm Bb rows. Instead of holding the bar, I help the handle on the weight. By doing this and positioning my body farther forward I feel the lower part of the lat much much better.

Also did a set of DB incline. Haven't done these in months but, I'm going to try to rotate them in. Just a bitch getting them in place. I'm stronger with DB than Bb..... Pathetic. Hammer flat press I used a foam roller between my shoulder blades. Bigger stretch and keeps my chest up more so I feel the entire ROM better.

Dead stop One arm Bb rows (plate grip) - 165*9,8, 6
Incline DB - 150*10
Hammer flat press (w foam roller) - 250*10,9
Ez bar front raise - 60*12, 10
V bar press down - stack *15, 12, 9

Rear delt fly - 40*25, 22
 
Killer session. Best one I've had in a while for legs. Felt every single rep. No joint pain, just self inflicted.

Romanian split squats - 30*25(+5lbs)
Glute kickback - 70*24
Seated Calf Raise - 135*25, 23, 21

No arms today. Little elbow pain from work so I'll let em rest and hope they don't shrink.

The glute kickback is new for this rotation. I'm trying to get a stretch while the muscle is still engaged as much as possible. This is a hamstring tearer if there ever was one.
 
Upper loading

Hammer Pulldown - 450*12, 7, 2 drops to failure
Rack Pull - 135+2 orange bands *15, 12
Flat machine press w pad - 360*11, 8
Cable fly - 100*15(failure)
Cage press - 135*9, 7
Cgbp - 235*11, 9
Drag curl - 50*12, 11

Rotating in new movements still to see what I can find that's gonna work.

The hammer Pulldown is a no go. That's maxed out with a pretty damn slow eccentric.

The banded rack pull was good. Amazing tension through the lats and mid back with the bands.

The machine press was good with the pad.

Cage press is always money.
 
Lower Loading

Had a terrible headache all day. Blood pressure is good though. Think the Cialis might be fucking with me. Either way I felt like my head was going to explode so I went higher rep for legs instead of passing out.

265. Good grief monte. That is enormous. I feel huge at 220-225 at your height. Its asses like you that remind me of how small I really am lol.

Going for more or maintaining 265?
Think we're gonna just try to hang around this weight and just improve the look.

Super tight today. Knees felt like they were going to blow the fuck out of my leg. Still no idea where that pain is coming from but, I might get it checked soon.

Plus, hacks were not the best option anyways for knees. Lightened the load and slowed it on down.
