i am feeling like i am 16 again. with this new feeling comes a sense of controlled excitement. i have to remember what my limits are even though i feel damn good. and besides age is only a number, right?

killadelphia - thats a new one, had me cracking up. hoping tomorrow will be the day. as for the diet it is too early to tell if i am gaining weight, i avoid mirrors like the plague. i do weigh in once a week so that should give me a clue

[Big Wides]

Back, Thursday, 8/9/07...

wide grip pullups: 3 sets x 7, 6, 5 reps
neutral grip pullups: 3 sets x 5, 5, 4 reps

hs low row: 3 sets, 4piesx3 reps last set
underhand grip pulldowns: 3 sets, 210 x 9 on last set

grip issues plagued my workout tonight. its something i've gotta work on. felt pretty pumped during and after the workout. the pull-ups are coming along and it was a nice change doing them fresh.

[Toni69]

I have issues with my grip too..I have to use straps on stuff like BOR's and deads. My grip fails before anything else if I dont use straps and it is most annoying to be pumping out reps and not be done but you lose your grip. It totally screws your rhythm and your focus up.

I have small hands too..so I have to use the straps. Any X yet..Im gonna be watching your log here.

i have been informed by the higher powers, saturday. so next week will be my first full week on the X plus my normal supps. i used to use straps, however one day i was doing cleans, and failed to get a weight and was strapped in. i went with the barbell after that i told myself no straps. the chalk helps with me. i am hoping that the forearm work will help with the grip issues

[Big Wides]

bench - 135x15, 225x10, 275x8, 315x5, 225x11
pec deck - 2x15

diet:

0630 - 1c oats, 3egg whites. pak, 3 uniliver
0930 - Metrx Big 100 bar, 3 uniliver
1200 - 8 oz chicken, 1 cup brown rice, 2 uniliver
0300 - 3 egg whites, 3 uniliver
1700 - 9 oz pork, 1 cup brown rice, 1/2c broc
1800 - pump
1830 - 1930 train
1930 - torrent
2030 - 2 cans tuna, 2 slices wheat

wanted to test the pecs by throwing flat bench in at the end of the chest routine. felt good and all of the weights felt heavy. was a good session, no grip issues.

[ChandlerXJ]

wides, i gotta ask...

why the ex curls, why not BB loaded up!

I just read an article, I'll dig it up, that says the ez curls are utterly pointless.

everything else looks solid! lets see some heavy weights on the BB curls next week OW OWWW!

[Big Wides]

Last night was great, really sorry to another brother I could not move that big 475 you did bro, that shit was intense!!!!! You went from 405 right to 475 and it looked the same as your 405 on the third rep going up! Your kickin ass and taking names...

This night could not be described, it looks cool in print but until you know what we put our self through it cannot be comprehended. Unrelenting would be a start... Imagine powerlifting type of weight, way less time in between sets, high volume sets/reps for 2 hours straight and then some.

Sick ass workout....way to hit squats last.....totally killer.....I followed Machines Leg routine from his Journey a few times, and its fucking brutal....of course i'm only doing 1/2 the weight, lol, but still....squatting last is brutality. awesome work!

[Malloy1344]

BTW, sick ass Deadlift.......looks like we both pulled some nice weight this week, even though i missed on my max attempt. Next week i'm rippin that shit off the floor.

thank you Toni, your support carries more than words can describe. like all of us here, i still have a long way to go to get to where i want to be. i have learned that through the 3Ds anything can be accomplished. whether it is in the gym, at home, or through daily life activites. putting your best foot forward in anything that you do, not matter how big or small, with the right motovation, and you will go a long way not only in the gym but in life as well.

"Without plans, there would be chaos"

[Big Wides]

whatever...you got the god starter kit going it's only a matter of time...

thank you eblnyc.... your support is amazing, it makes me strive for the best that i can give with each session

[Big Wides]

as the last week on the X comes, here is what I have noticed so far:

- new stretch marks
- increased water intake (makes you thirsty)
- have gained quality weight, my food intake has increased while taking the X but my stomach has not gotten bigger
- muscle soreness two days after the session
- increased recovery between sets

weigh in tomorrow so that will set the tone for the week

[Lowdown5]

[Rage]

Nice job Bro...I'll check in on the final results...

[Big Wides]

Nice job Bro...I'll check in on the final results...

thursday is the last day on X, which is legs.... giving it the send off it deserves

[Big Wides]

back tonight, no deads since legs are tomorrow:

barbell rows - warmups, 275x3, 275x3
narrow grip pullups - 6, 5, 5
cs rows, 2piesx12, 3piesx8, 4piesx5
hs high row (lever grip) - 3 sets, 3pies+25x4 last set
rev grip pulldowns - 3 sets, 220x4 on last
pullovers - 90x8, 100x6

was disappointed in myself on the rows, wanted more weight or reps. the rest of the session went well, was soaked at the end. good pump and made sure i got a stretch on the back movements, it feels like i am losing some flexability. legs tomorrow....brings a smile to my face

[Lowdown5]

Solid day BW, give them legs hell tomorrow.

[Big Wides]

Solid day BW, give them legs hell tomorrow.

thanks LD your encouragement fuel the fire, trying to stimulate new growth i wanted to dead real bad today, but there is always next week. as for my legs go i have a feeling it will be another pillage and plunder day....

[rcrott1]

definitely interested to see what your final gains were.!

[Big Wides]

definitely interested to see what your final gains were.!

they will either be posted on sunday or monday. since tomorrow is my last day on it (thought today was but obvisouly i cant count)

[Big Wides]

legs last night:

Leg Extensions: 5 sets x 12 reps
Superset: Kneeling Unilateral Leg Curls w/ Seated Leg Curls (Hamtractor); 10 sets total nonstop back and forth x 12-6 reps
Leg Press: 6 sets x 15-10 reps, 14 plates x 10 reps on last set
Hack Squat: 3 sets x 10-8 reps, 4 plates per side x 8 reps on last set
Smith Machine Calf Raise: 7 sets x 12-10 reps

its fun leg pressing with no hamstrings. weight felt heavy at first but the body adapted to the stress. it was a nice way to end the session with the hacks. liking the pre-exhaustion work before the compound movements.

last workout today on X

[Big Wides]

last session on X, and it was a good one:

chest today:

incline - warmups, 225x9, 255x8, 275x3, 295x3, 315x1, 225x11
decline - 225x12, 275x6, 275x6
db flies - 60x10, 70x8, 80x6

wanted to do singles on flat bench, they were all taken....went into incline and it felt natural. the decline however not so natural. it was a good simple session. i believe that the 315 might be a PR...

[MassMonster]

daaaamn bro 315 incline???? i cant even do that flat you are 1 inspirationally strong cat bro...

[Big Wides]

daaaamn bro 315 incline???? i cant even do that flat you are 1 inspirationally strong cat bro...

thanks Mass, it took me a long time to get to the 315. if you honestly asked me 4 months ago if i could get it, i would have told you no. however through hard work, correct diet, and all of the other parts of this game i got it up today. just stick to what you need to do and in due time you will get to where you want to be

wow - thanks bro. we are all strong here mentally, physically, spirtuality. there are others out there who are stronger, bigger, and faster than me and that is what fuels me. the knowledge that someone out there can wipe the floor with my weights or me makes me strive that much more to get stronger. maybe its the competive nature in myself or the simple fact that i am never satisifed until i have reached a goal, then as soon as that is reached, i set another. i have been like this for as long as i can rememeber, in the circle with the shot/hammer/discus, in the gym doing endless clean and jerks, in the classroom taking notes, or just lounging my mind was always racing as to what can i do to make myself better. how to improve on what i already have.....one must always remember to never give up on your goals/dreams, because if we do then we haven't evolved from the single cell species that we once were.....
