Striving for Elusive Lean Gains (LG Mass)

RR - Chest/Abs:

DB Incline Press:
WM 25sx10
35sx10
40sx8
45sx8
50s-left arm couldn't do it.
45sx8

Bench Press:
115x8
105x9
95x10

DB Flyes:
2x15x12

Weighted Decline Crunches:
bw+20x12
bw+25x12

Cable Crunches:
3x120x10

Notes:

It took me forever to find out what I could do on the Inclines. I think I could have done 50s if I had started out with them. I think the next cycle will be much better since I'll be familiar with all the exercises.

I was so completely dead when I got around to the bench... :mad:

DB Flyes were a lot tougher than I thought they'd be.

Workout length: 45 minutes
 
Nice w/o buddy! Yeah, it takes some trial and error the first time through to get the weights you need and it'll be easier your next time through :thumbs: You and Gary had pretty much the same w/o today :D

Upper body workouts are decent but I just love the leg workouts! They're the most fun workouts now that they're feeling good. I wonder if the leg workouts will help speed for sprints. It'd be a nice side benefit for basketball :D

This is finals time, and I have had a few setbacks in terms of the amount of work that I need to do. I'm not sure if I'll be able to workout until Saturday.
 
Just came browsing through here and thought I'd say good job. It's nice to see more new members(me included) take themselves seriously with their goals :thumb:.

Thanks Sean! I appreciate it.

I just need to finish this last week of projects, papers, and finals then I'm done until I decide to subject myself to more of this stuff (grad school...). :rocker:
 
RR - Bis/Calves/Abs:

Bis

Alternating Dumbbell Curls:
2x30x8

Standing EZ Bar Curl:
70x9
65x9

Concentration Curl:
2x10x15

Calves

Calf Raises:
2x55x15

Sitting Calf Raises:
2x45x10

Abs

Kneeling Cable Crunches:
2x120x12

Notes:

RI was about 90 seconds.

I don't see much benefit to doing cable curls and an EZ bar is better for my wrists, so I went with that as a substitution.

Concentration curls were done sitting down on a bench. Very difficult.

Concentrating on working the ab muscles as much as possible with the crunches, felt great!

Calves feel good, 10 hours since the workout. I played an hour of tennis and shot hoops for an hour as well. Legs are really improving! I will stay with a higher rep range for the calves, but I will keep increasing weight.

Workout length: 35 minutes

Looks good buddy. You just gotta tailor the exercises to fit what works for you! I didn't like cable curls before, but now I'm starting to like them, but I also see what your saying. Nice w/o!

All clean foods. Since that was a workout day and I did two hours of exercise on top of that, I think 3800 wasn't too high.

I think I've increased my metabolism from when I started in January and February. Back then I was making solid gains from only about 2500-2700 calories per day. Right now that level is needed for maintenance.

Thanks Pylon!

I finished my last final this morning and played 1 hour of basketball this afternoon. I got elbowed in my forearm this Sunday when I was playing 21 which gave me a nice bruise and some pain over the past day or so.

Tomorrow I'll be resuming lifting :D

Working out in a new gym on campus as the other is unavailable. This is my first workout in 2 weeks due to graduation. This really kicked my ass today. My arms were very tired afterwards.

Notes:

I'm in Atlanta for a few days. Today's workout was done in the gym at a friend's apartment where I'm staying. They have DB's up to 45lbs so it is much better than your typical apt gym :D I didn't have the equipment to improv a shock workout so I figure a bit more RR sould be fine to shake things up :D

Machine Curl had a very limited ROM and felt like the machine wasn't constructed well.

There was not anything available that I could have done dips with, so bench dips were substituted, though they were far too easy (I can't figure out how you could do weighted bench dips...where would you put the weight?)

Pushdowns were done on a Lat Pulldown station as opposed to a cable crossover station.

RI was about 90 seconds.

Workout length: 35 min
 
Great workout and way to improvise Morte. That's the sign of devotion and intelligence :thumbs:
