3 weeks into the leg workout. 1 inch on my legs, and 1/2 inch on my calves. my legs were definitely my weak point, and this is killing them. what are your tips as to when to raise the weight on my sets? i figured that if i am almost coming to complete failure on the last poistive reps, then i am on target. if i can do all of the positives reps without an issue, then it is time to up the weight...am i on the right track? thanks for the tips!
Keep pushing the weight up as long as that particular bodypart can handle it. Failing completely on the last couple reps of the second set is ideal keeping safetly in mind. Obviously this is easier to do on DB Curls and not Hack Squats. Keep up the good work.
I just started this idea into my training, pulling the negatives into my splits
Im not sur emy chest has ever hurt this bad in my life
im definitely looking forward to the rest
I am the man responsible for who I am. When I look in the mirror each day, I stare my creator in the eyes. I am responsible for what I have and will become, I am accountable for what I will or will not accomplish. I believe in myself, I bow to no man and my only critic of any consequence has walked every mile of this journey in my size thirteens.
last night, i got my arms MURDERED by Rage. it was evident i wasnt doin em right on my own time at the rec, cause the shit we did last night hurt like a mofo. we did one set of alt DB HRT curls, and i felt pumped and as sick as 5 regular sets of em. one of the most intense workouts ive ever done, and i will be sure to keep on spreading the good word.
Good lecture today. I managed to listen a bit while at work. Nice straight forward presentation. Very well done.
rev8ball even added a little to it.
Loved the Q&A. Thanks for having it.
Thanks bro. I'm still trying to figure out which camera crew was there filming it. Before I knew it, these guys showed up...camera..and then boom comes in over head. They were ready for this shit to go down. I was too busy talking but I think it might have been MD.

Great physique you've got there brother. It was great working with you.

I know the feeling brother. I got my back and calves killed by Rage Friday night. They felt like they were 1.5 times their normal size when I walked out of there. Definitely gonna be in my arsenal.

I got a taste of this on Thursday, and I can definitely say that you better be 100% ready when you do it... The pain is exquisite, and the science behind it is extremely solid!!! (BTW, I had a hell of a time doing anything that required the use of my shoulders for a few days... *LOL*)

Thanks mrdead for a good review of the taste you got, from what i saw via the web cast it looked like this is gonna be one hell of a workout once you get into it. Wish i had a steady training parter to do this with but in time i may find one.

Yeah, having a quality partner is VERY key with this...
This stuff is deep man. I just gotta say, I noticed you were starting the Iron Contest III and my friend and I are already getting started on your training to see if we can hack it. We did Guns today and MAN! That shit was crazy! I'm pumped to see what happens at the end of 12 weeks! Thanks for the post and the workout. VERY solid stuff.

Throw your guys' name in there! It's going to be a great contest.

Of course bro. Your a huge part of this. Get ready because Iron Contest III is starting April 4th. We have 6 pairs already that have the balls to take this on. Can you get Lacy to be a guest as well during the contest?
The HRT must have been a flash of genius, Rage. Definately an option for future splits.
