well then....thats a PR. Get to pull from the floor next Monday so all hell is going to break lose

That is some carzy weight for GM! I see not just big, but HUGE dead lifts for you 2 in the future... I'll be on the look out for it too.

Back 7/21/08 at 8PM

Trained with Juggernaut

Good Mornings (used SSB) - barx10, 1ppsx5, 1pps+25x5, 2ppsx3, 2ppsx3, 2pps+25x2
HS Behind Neck Pulldowns - 1ppsx20, 2ppsx12, 3ppsx8, 4ppsx4, 3ppsx9
CS Rows - 2piesx12, 3piesx10, 4piesx8, 6piesx1
Weight Assisted Pullups - 5, 5, 5

I have no idea how heavy the Safety Squat Bar is, so that is why I listed the weight used in pies. If anyone knows, please tell me would be nice to know how much we did in GMs today...haha. Did some pulldowns to further fry the back, and CS rows was a second option, looking to do some incline db rows but they were all taken. No worries there still went nice and heavy on whatever else we did. The assisted pullups were done so that my fat ass could get a couple of reps out of my back. Switching things up, off on Tues so shoulders are on Wed.

Also, used my lever belt for the first time today and I like it a lot. Real nice and tight, keeps everything where its supposed to be

Those are some heavy good mornings! You and Juggernaut really move some tremendous weight!

[Hoomgar]

I am telling you that I can't do pullups to save my life, ask G or Juggernaut.

Trust me bro, I understand. I can pulldown a good bit too and I am only just now getting to where I can actually do a pullup. It's crazy how hard it is. I don't understand how some of these guys can strap a pair of 45's between their legs and do them! That's nutz!


An incline DB row is when you lay on a incline bench with your chest on the bench so arms are hanging over it, grab dbs and row. Can get a nice squeeze out of these.


These will be done! Thanks bro.

Thanks J, trying to get to a point to where these weights are "light" since there are people out there who warm up with what we did last night.....Its all in the name of trying to get big

These will be done! Thanks bro.

I might have to give them a try with the next go around with the GMs....I like the SSBs since it could be felt real good in the hamstrings and lower back. Also on the desent down it hit the abs nicely as well.....thanks for stopping by

***Sounds like you could use some Dulcolax bro.....

I dont even know how to respond to this, but to answer your comment no I dont. Its all about the honey clusters

Here's the scary part, I actually like doing this shit. The stronger the ab region gets the stronger I will get in turn. Which is why I use weighted exercises versus non weighted. Who knows maybe in 5-10 years when I decide to do a real diet they might acutally show

[ChandlerXJ]

Great thinking on the weighted ab work... I pretty much have the same philosophy, dont go nearly as heavy though.

Show 5-10 years... That would be killer, because you will be not just Big Wides by then you will probably be MASSIVELY HUGE WIDES ....

Yeah I usually just do it once a week, and give the abs the rest they need like all of the other body parts. Having a thick, muscled waist is a sign of power and when the shirt comes off people are shocked at what is underneath the shirt

Wow, I envy you for enjoying heavy ab work. I despise abs.... I hate doing them....your approach is methodical and effective sir. Big numbers coming in the second part of 2008.

Thats what makes it fun, the added weight. Hell if I had to do this without the weight it would be like pulling teeth. The way I approach this is to hit lower, middle and outside abs since they all fire at once when you preform any lift no matter what it is. Big numbers are needed to close out the year

[Big Wides]

So far today, through 4 meals according to fitday.com I have consumed the following:

- 2611 calories
- 84g of fat
- 161g of carbs
- 286g of protein
- 1.25 gallons of water

Still got 2 more feedings to go, will have a quart of water with each of the last two feedings plus whatever I drink during the session brings me close to 2 gallons a day

damn I'm bored at work

[JUGGERNAUT]

I can smell the Military Press

[Big Wides]

Shoulders....7/23/08 at 8PM in Globo Hell

Seated Front Military - barx15, 135x12, 225x7, 255x5, 275x1, 275x1, 295x1 PR
Standing DB Press - 55x12, 65x10, 75x8, 90x2
Rev. Pec Deck - 3x12-10
Barbell Shrugs - 225x10, 315x10, 405x10, 495x9, 605x4, 635x2

Good soild session tonight. Moving some decent weight on the front militaries and that PR gets me a little closer to 315, hot damn. Didnt have much of a plan of attack tonight so the standing db press seemed like a logical move after all that pressing. The shrugs were a big surprise, pleased with them and only means shit will increase from here. Juggernaut had one hell of a showing, switching up from behind the neck to front militaries with each set, keeping the weight the same for each one and hammering home heavy ass presses. I believe he said one of the sets was a PR, he looked fluid and strong as hell. Legs tomorrow.....wooopie

[Pizzalamp]

damn wides...90s on presses, and those shrugs

good job

thanks Pizza, I am feeling every bit of that session today and when I woke up it was a pain in the ass to put a shirt on. Thats quality shit there, means only one thing, gotta eat well today and growth might happen

wow i remember when i was OVER 242 eek!!!!

Here is a shocker this time last year I was about 210lbs, started to eat like a man and now I sit somewhere in the 250s. Soon to be in the 240s soon....well thats the plan at least

[LittleMan55]

295... PR... HELL YEAH! I cant wait to do seated mils with that weight... I get closer weekly, but have a ways to go. Great work as always!

[JUGGERNAUT]

So I get done doing two sets of shrugs with 5 pies a side well and tell Wides I'm gonna take a leak and come back. (In my mind I'm not just taking a leak but coming back to hammer out 6 pies a side for a PR) What do I find when I come back?...Wides has stripped both his bar AND MINE!!!!!!!!!! It was near closing so I just said F it, I'll do it next week. Wides Wides WIdes.

Ok, I know I fucked up on this one....I was under the impression that the mutant was done shrugging. As usual I thought wrong and he wanted to do a set, I didnt know. Anyway that was the only brain fart during that session, so we were lucky there

[JUGGERNAUT]

I aint bitching but two PR's in one night would not have been a bad thing... I guess I'll weld the pies on the squat bar tonight so you don't repeat your dedication to plate clean up.

Legs, 7/24/08 at Mickey Mouse's Club

Squats - barx10, 135x10, 225x8, 315x6, 405x5, 495x1 (belt added), 525x1 (belt), 545x1 (belt), 565x0 (belt, was 2" above parallel), 405x5
Single Leg Hamtractor - 4 sets 10-3, 210x3 on last set
Single Leg Ext - 4 sets 20-4, stackx4 on last set

Good session today, completly destroyed 525, 545 but had my troubles with 565. Did not unrack easy and it just felt damn heavy. However from the depth that I went down to, the coming up part was good so that is a positive coming out of that set. It taught my body to how react to heavy weights plus how to rebound into moving it. Granted it was not deep enough thats a different issue altogether but gaining a positive experience out of it makes it a good set. Then dropped down to 405 to relearn technique and get some blood into the legs. The single leg hamtractor was Juggernaut's idea dont know if its brillance or a result of being squat drunk but got the job done. Got a good feeling out of tonight, its only going to get better from here......

[boar]

nice squat session as usual. so with 565 you got it but were just did not find depth?

Thanks Jim, just trying to get up to 600lbs on the squat one day so I can get that monkey off my back. Each week things are falling into place with each lift so when meet day comes it will be a nice culmonation of all this fun work I'm putting in. Gotta attack with weights with no fear

[LittleMan55]

Freaky squating bro! Squat drunk? I think I have been in that state of mind before, usually leads to some creative/painful results... Great work at always!

1scoop CellPro, 1.5scoops Torrent, 1 scoop Iso Whey Postworkout

Soild day the rack presses were killer, forgot how they fuck with the shoulder. Oh well gotta hammer away at my weak spots till they aren't weak. Wanted to try rep outs on bench for some kicks and to see if I could get a pump. It worked, and got an even bigger one with the smith presses. I really liked the forced reps on the pec deck, added a whole new feeling to the chest. A good soild day overall....earned that right to train arms tomorrow by what was done this week.....see youse in Jersey

[Pizzalamp]

I do like it, its supposed to be 2 scoops in one serving, but I split it up. I like the formula is simple but gets the job done. Yeah I got that idea from reading the Trevor Smith stuff on Beyond Faliure Training which looks like something I might give a run with come the fall. The steep inclines are becoming a favorite since I have noticed some nice meat around were the collarbone should be

20 minutes cardio PWO so I dont die while training

Good session today, the rotation that I am doing is working, 545 felt like 525 used to. Thats a good sign I'm getting stronger. Dont know if I was gassed at the 585 set or what but it came off the floor nicely, hit the knees and all hell broke lose. Lost tightness in my form and let her go. Got a compliment from one of the respectable trainers there (one who actually trains) telling me "thats some heavy shit there, good job" after the 585 set. Made me feel good about it. Nothig was lost in that set, I twitched struggled so something got worked. Did the rest of the stuff to help get the back bigger and the dead bigger. Next few days of training are going to be a rush, but its the shit you've gotta do to gain the uppper hand.

[Pokoritel]

Nice Deads BW. If you dont mind me asking...what rotation are you speaking of?

[LittleMan55]

Great pulling Wides... on the 585, it's always important to remember that the first step to success is failure. Besides it sounds like it was a mind fuck anwyay, I do the samething when the form goes.

Nice Deads BW. If you dont mind me asking...what rotation are you speaking of?

Thanks bro, on my back days I rotate different aspects of the deadlift to make it stronger. In essance I am training the lift without doing it. This past run was Rack Pulls, SLDL, GMs, then pulls from the floor. Taking next week to do some high rep fun stuff then back at it the following week.

thanks bro, I think I was just gassed from the other 7 sets before that. Its still a win since I taught my body how to react to strain caused by an object that you have to break off the floor. Fought gravity for a littel while then it took over....haha

solid session bro. sounds like a valient effort at 585. sticking points suck. What helped my dead was doing rack pullz just below the knee. I would only pull from the floor like once a month and it would always be max effort.

Seated Front Militaries - barx15, 135x12, 225x9, 255x5, 275x2, 300x0
HS Shoulder Press - 1ppsx20, 2ppsx12, 3ppsx7, 4ppsx0
Reverse Pec Deck - 3x10

Calf Raises - ?sets x 15-10 reps

Good soild day today got some heavy weights in the hands to get used to handling the weight. The 300 set wasnt a total loss, I lost it about halfway up and Juggernaut guided it the rest of the way. It felt good to have that weight in my hands and I know that it will fall soon, then after 300 comes 315. Was gassed by the HS Shoulder Press so 4pps came down nicely just didnt go up. But if it makes a difference the negative was slow....haha. Moved onto calves no idea how many sets but the calves feel nice. Chest tomorrow in this marathon week

thanks eblnyc, gotta hit it hard and heavy to grow. I gotta keep pushing shit till I reach that next level

[boom]

Damn, props for even getting 300 halfway up, thats a lot of weight for a shoulder press. DAMN!

[Big Wides]

Damn, props for even getting 300 halfway up, thats a lot of weight for a shoulder press. DAMN!

thanks boom, felt good to get it in my hands. That freak known as Juggernaut did the 300 the same way when he attempted it, so now its a race to see who can get it done first!

Random Thought:

Looks like in October, I'll be running 6 weeks of Beyond Faliure Training. Should be a fun time, I figure I'm crazy enough to do this plus whats the worst that could happen....I finally get big?

We are racing now? Hardly.... if you consider I'm 40 pounds less than you and half as tall I already won hahahaha! Nah Bro we hit new PR's together, not against each other... Let's save the competition spirit for a RAW PL MEET!

P.S. I can smell the iron chains for the benching tonight.... mmmmm chains

[LittleMan55]

Not that you arent already tearing it up in the gym... Now you let us know your going to do BFT... Oh things are getting better all the time.

for the option of whats the worst thing I'm going to get big... That might not put words on it, HUGE would be more appropriate!

Bench - barx15, 135x10, 225x9, 275+chainsx3, 315+chainsx3, 335+chainsx2, 345+chainsx1, 365+chainsx0
Steep DB Incline - 65x12, 85x10, 105x9, 125x4
Pec Deck - 4 sets 15-5

Ab Machine - 4 sets 20-5

Good quailty session tonight. Had lots of speed at 275 and 315 so I am happy with that. 335 and 345 felt good and 365 was like a Buick on my chest....doesnt matter I will get it. Moved onto some steep db inclines to pack that necessary meat on. Pec Deck to stretch shit out and some abs. I wish I had a camera for the look on the person's face when I walked in with chains. She had a look of shock and actually said "Wow, those are big" I chuckled at that and went on to bench. Legs tomorrow.....I'm hungry

[Pokoritel]

Yo Wides I tried BFT with Preacher Curls I felt like I was in a new world. I was making all these weird sounds to get the damn weight up and it was just pure madness. The craziest pump my arms ever had. Everyone was staring lol....6 weeks of that will either kill you or make you stronger. Good luck with BFT.

Wides, I think you have that miserable overly tight shirt wearing trainer at globo feeling second best to you. He was giving you dirty looks all night and throwing shit around while he was NOT WORKING/training on their dime.... You are gonna crush the 365 bench with chains in the very near future too.

You mean that seagull trainer and I are friends? Happy days are here again.....I'm glad he was giving me dirty looks means we are turning heads in there with the way we train. He can throw all he wants around makes him look like an ass (while he's trying to look hardcore). And we just laugh a lot during the sessions....my whole chest is tight as hell, good deal

Priceless....LOL


Nice benchin big man!

thanks IRBS, it didnt occur to me how much was pressed until this morning when I thought about it and added the chain weight. Its one techique that I really like and its great to add not only size but strength/speed

Legs....7/31/08 at 8PM in the place were everyone has a fucking attitdue

Trained with The Squat Monster aka Juggernaut

Squats - barx12, 135x10, 225x8, 315x5, 405+chainsx3, 455+chainsx2, 455+chainsx2, 495+chainsx1
Hamtractor - 4 sets 15-10, stackx14 on last set
Calf Raises - 4 sets x 15
Calf Raise/Leg Press Superset - 2 sets of 5, 15piesx5 on last set

Soild session tonight....really felt the effects of this week tonight. So stopped at 495 since I knew going up would have been bad. Juggernaut set 2 PRs tonight in the squat, huge congrats to that monster, made it look easy. After all of the squat stuff hit some hams and got a real brilliant idea doing the calf raises. Why not do leg presses after them, why not leg press was already loaded with 12 pies so it seemed like the logical thing to do. So that offically cooked the legs, off for the next 3 days to eat, recover, recharge. Then next week get to do some BB stuff (JOY!!!).

So my chain lady was working the front desk again, this time I came walking in with both of them on my shoudlers. She looked up, shook her head, smiled and said "So you have more of them..." I just smiled back and told her yes, and the reason is because its the crazy things we do to get bigger.

[excessive endorphins]

495+CHAINS?!

Pure madness.Maybe you & the chain lady should get acquainted? On your way out of the gym of course.

Thanks bro, I think its 545 at the top for that last set. Still 55lbs away from where I want to be without the chains, but that will happen in due time. As for the chain lady nah bro, you don't shit where you eat.

I figured I'd post up what I eat on a "strict" day and a normal meathead day:

"Strict Day"

Meal 1 - 1 cup oatmeal 8 egg whites mixed in the oatmeal
Meal 2 - 8oz chicken, 4oz carb
Meal 3 - 8oz turkey, 4oz carb
Meal 4 - 8oz chicken, 4oz carb, 4oz veggie
Meal 5- 8oz beef, 4oz carb, 8oz veggie
Preworkout - CellPro/Torrent/Whey/Poptart
Postworkout - Same as Pre
Meal 6 - 6 whole eggs, 2pieces Ezikeal Toast, glass of milk

2 gallons water

Meathead Day:

Meal 1 - 6 eggs, cereal, shake
Meal 2 - 10 oz beef, 6oz carb
Meal 3 - 8oz fish, 6oz carb, salad (all mixed together)
Meal 4 - 10oz chicken, 6oz carb, if there is any cake/goodies laying around the office I will sample some of them to ensure its ok for human consumption
Meal 5 - Eyeball portions of meat, carbs, veggies (normally ate in a large bowl)
Meal 6 - Something that is due to expire since its been in the fridge for close to a week (whatever size it is I eat it. Hate throwing food away)
Meal 7 - Peanut Butter Vanillia Real Gains Milkshake, Whatever cookie I can get my hands on

2 gallons of water

Note: The Meathead days dont happen that often, I eat this way as a reward for training hard so it doesnt happen often, maybe once every 6-8 weeks

The squat is a very tricky exercise, takes a while to find a groove but when you do, look out it will come back stronger. The diet for me has come a long way, and this is what works for me since I dont feel all that bloated with the carbs, plus the rabbit food helps. Its a ton of protien there also no matter what the day is, gotta repair and get bigger

I look at your meals and have to admit to not eating enough.

According to some I eat enough for a family of 4....not always a good thing. Plus I may eat more but you outlast me in the sessions.

the mad scientist with the diet triple extra wides..i like the legs sessions..chains and all! growth is on its way...

Just trying to get bigger by some sort of demented method. Be it messing around with the diet or throwing in chains to make it more difficult...all in the name of getting bigger

Decent night didnt go crazy with the weights kept it all good. T-bars felt damn good real soild in the movements. The weighted hypers were a good idea figured had to make it a little challenging.

what is the jailhouse t bahs? sounds badass. like the weighted hypers that sounds pretty hardcore.

[Big Wides]

what is the jailhouse t bahs? sounds badass. like the weighted hypers that sounds pretty hardcore.

Jailhouse T-bars is when you shove one end of the bar in a corner, load up the other end with pies and row with a v-bar handle under the bar. Its a tbar row however its eaiser on the nuts since the odds of the barbell smashing them Jailhouse style is minimal. Yeah the weighted hypers were brutal but a welcome change

Shoulders.....8/6/08 at 8PM

Trained with Juggernaut

Behind Neck Jerk (snatch grip) - barx10, 135x5, 185x5, 225x5
Front Push Press - 255x4, 275x3, 315x0 (missed at lockout)
Rev. Peck Deck - 4 sets 15-8, stackx8 on last set
DB Press - 65x15, 75x12, 90x8
Clean Pulls - 135x3, 225x3, 275x1

Soild session today, felt strong in the push press and pissed I missed the 315 could not lock it out. There is always next time. The DB presses shocked the hell out of me and the clean pulls seemed like a foreign exercise to me. Thats the rust. Juggernaut did very well tonight with everything I threw at him. Once he adapted to the crazy lifts he did them with zero effort. Legs tomorrow

Thanks eblnyc, this is a laid back week with training, keeping the reps high to give the CNS a break. I am slowly progressing towards where I want to be, it just takes time and hard work

[LittleMan55]

Great shoulder work wides! I need to start doing the push press again. I used to love it when I was still playing ball in college. The lock out at the top was always fun! Keep pounding away at the weight bro...

thanks broc, just trying to keep up with the freaks out there. the lockout has been a pain in my balls for sometime now, i dont think i am getting enough legs into it. its all good though, worked on getting hip speed down last night and it worked

It is a tricky lift for sure. If your timing is off on any part of it a lot can go bad quick!

wow wides, those snatch grip jerks don't kill your shoulders? i think that would just tear my own shoulders to pieces...Strong as hell on them though.

i hate not being able to lock out a heavy push press or jerk, it always feels like i'm gonna black out lol.

Great work

They really dont kill them that bad, I mean there is no pain just when it comes down it kinda crashes hard on my neck. Which is why I switched to the front to try and move some weight. It was a struggle and in the best efforts of not hurting myself or having the weight come back on my head I decided to rack it.

[excessive endorphins]

Ah the glory days of 225x15 btn pushpress.Now THAT did a number on my shoulder.Shit 275 wides?! Thats my goal for a single

I have no idea where those reps came from, I just got under it didnt think about it and went to town. 315 has to fall sooner or later in one of the shoulder presses.....be it seated, standing, or push pressing....gotta add another exercise to the 3 pie club....one day

[ChandlerXJ]

I got the eating down, it's going good - keeping it clean but lots of cals...

I got the training somewhat down - DC is nutty but I'm really loving it so far...

Wanted to see what we could do with fresh legs on the leg press. Well after loading it two pies at a time we worked our way up to 12pps (total 24). Did it for reps and called that exercise done. Moved over to squats and sank as deep as we could, held it for a one count then came up. This is going to help a lot in the hole and with the squat in general. Moved to do some hammies and calves because like everything they need work

Awesome work Wides. I'm sure unracking those 24 plates as equally as pleasureable as presssing them!

I like the pause squats idea too! Solid work.

[ChandlerXJ]

Wides have you ever done DC?

[Big Wides]

Great leg day bro! 24 plates is moving some serious weight. Eating to get big is diffcult, especially if your doing it clean!

Tell me about it, the leg press felt heavy at first but found a groove and pounded it out. The thing with the eating is that I am due to go food shopping, so I have really no red meat to eat....thats were the calories are.

Awesome work Wides. I'm sure unracking those 24 plates as equally as pleasureable as presssing them!

I like the pause squats idea too! Solid work.

Thanks Jim, felt good and the pause squats were even more enjoyable since it required full out brute meathead power to get out of the hole. Teach your body to strain and it will grow and get stronger

Wides have you ever done DC?

No I have not, to me it seems real complicated and I can't grasp the concepts of it.

If ya don't mind me asking-How much protien/carbs are you taking each meal/each day-do you have any recommendations??? I just started eating bison-nice and lean...but not as available in my market.

[Big Wides]

If ya don't mind me asking-How much protien/carbs are you taking each meal/each day-do you have any recommendations??? I just started eating bison-nice and lean...but not as available in my market.

I dont really keep track of each meal as to the macro breakdown. By 3:00PM which is my 4th meal I try to have around 2000-3000 caloires in me, about 200-250g of protein and roughly around the same in carbs. I generally shoot for on a daily average about 3500-5000 calories, protein ranges from a minium of 300-450g a day, and carbs are dependant on what I am training, but I shoot for 450-600g a day (this includes Torrent). Its a lot of eating but its worth it in the end

As for suggestions, I would shoot for at least 1.5-2g of protein per BW, carbs (depending on how sensative you are and goals) would be 1.75-3g of carbs per BW. Diversification is paramount, with carbs go for some sort of veggie at each feeding along with the normal carbs you eat. Protein gotta have some form of red meat in there, its the best way to get those cals up. Shakes are good if your in a bind, I currently only take Torrent PWO as my only shake so I eat 6 whole food meals/day. Expirement with what you have around you and what is available, but I tend to eat to the size I want to be....

Face Pulls - 4 sets 10-8, 200x8 on last set
Wide Grip HS Pulldowns - 3 sets 8-5, 3ppsx5 on last set

Felt damn good to use heavy weight again after a week off it. The 585 set moved 1" off the pins, struggled a bit knew I wasnt going to lock it out so I let it down for safety reasons. It was a great session though even with the miss, the weights were moving real nice off the pins for both Juggernaut (who had 2 PRs tonight) and I. The other work was for some upper back stuff since the lowers were a tad fried. Following this session up with some Animal Max (Van) and 5 whole eggs.

Working on that piss poor bench tomorrow

So all of those numbers posted there its the bar weight + the chains so the weight actually lifted last night is higher than what is posted....

Tell me about it, if I hit 540 for 3 I know for a fact you hit way higher numbers than me on any given day. A pull from the floor day soon is gonna get nuts I think. Also, think of it this way, you were holding 630 with no straps..... "Vice Grip Wides"

Back.....8/11/08 at 8PM

Trained with Juggernaut

Rack Deads - barx8, 135x8, 225x5, 315x5, 405+chainsx3, 455+chainsx3, 495+chainsx2, 545+chainsx1, 585+chains (630 total weight)x0
HS High Row - 4 sets 15-8, 5ppsx8 on last set
Face Pulls - 4 sets 10-8, 200x8 on last set
Wide Grip HS Pulldowns - 3 sets 8-5, 3ppsx5 on last set

Felt damn good to use heavy weight again after a week off it. The 585 set moved 1" off the pins, struggled a bit knew I wasnt going to lock it out so I let it down for safety reasons. It was a great session though even with the miss, the weights were moving real nice off the pins for both Juggernaut (who had 2 PRs tonight) and I. The other work was for some upper back stuff since the lowers were a tad fried. Following this session up with some Animal Max (Van) and 5 whole eggs.

Working on that piss poor bench tomorrow

thats a hardcore pulling session. like the ridiculous grocery bill. that will probably hold you over for a week.....

thanks Pizza, figured switch it up try something different to get dormant fibers involved. Was a little weird balancing on the bench but all in all good pushing was done

thanks boar, was feeling real good during that session. Gotta work with heavier than normal numbers to get those big pulls down

Bench....8/12/08 at 8PM

Trained with Juggernaut

Bench - barx12, 135x10, 225x10, 315x8, 365x2, 385x1(easy), 405x0.5 (went halfway up and stopped), 315x4 paused for one count on chest
Decline - 135x15, 225x10, 315x4
DB Flies - 50x12, 70x8, 90x5

Standing Calf Raise - 8 sets, did the stack for 5 out of the 8 setsx15-10

Decent session, nothing to write home about, gotta get that bench up but that will come with time and consistancy. I think moving the bench to Tuesday will allow the needed work to get done. Off tomorrow then more fun stuff come Thursday

My bench has gone way down. Not sure what gives? Those are some serious numbers on the bench their bro. Looking forward to Thursday!

HAHA no pullups, no shit....everything was a challenge after that session. As for your bench have you switched up from barbell to db? Have you switched it from flat to incline? How much volume are you doing? I mean the bench is a tricky lift, let me know what you've been doing recently and I'll see what I can suggest.

thanks eblnyc, heavy is the only way to roll....keeps the vanity assholes off your ass plus it builds a nice physique as well

Another day in Hell

Pulldown Abs - 5sets 30-25
Landmines - barx15, 1piex10, 1pie+25x4 (story to why)

40 minutes cardio

So I am doing landmines in the corner, and its clear as day there is no bar up on the rack so that I can do the landmine properly. So some brain surgeon takes a bar and does some sort of lift. So as I am in the middle of my set as I twist to the side where the rack is, Mr. Brain Surgeon has racked the barbell, so enter hand and wack. Luckly the only thing to happen was a cracked fi
