oh lawd. First 4 reps of 335 was mad fast. last one was slower because grip was slipping and the uni gym chalks sucks.

Happy Leap Year Day!





Overhead a funny conversation at the gym today

27 02 2012
scroll to bottom if you don’t give a shit about my training.
Squart:
100×5
135×5
155×5
180×5
205×5

Ate 300 cals yesterday. 205 was harder than it should have been, but reps were still fast. Need to keep chest up when coming outta the hole.

Bench Press:
105×5
115×5
135×5
145×5
165×5

top set sucked ass. first 4 reps on 165 were fast as fuark, then hit the pegs on the way up which made that rep harder(read wobblier) than it needed to be. +5 friday. did 20 pullups before benching and i think the small back pump may have helped keep stable.

Rows:
95×5
115×5
135×5
155×5
175×5

fuarrk back pumps.

Here’s a conversation i heard while rowing:

Guy 1: Dude i go through 5 lbs of muscle milk, 4 lbs of whey and 1lb of peanut butter in 3 weeks.
Guy 2: Cool dude, you’re finished your cycle right?
Guy 1: yea, started PCT today. using clen as PCT.
Guy 2: Have you ever heard of tren?
Guy 1: Yeah, GNC has it. That shit is dangerous.

Funny because guy 1 was squatting 5 plates ATG for triples O.O




Sex, Drugs, Rock and Roll

24 02 2012

Squat:
100×5
135×5
155×5
175×5
205×3
155×8

top set was fast as fuck. it appears that not letting my back round gives me more speed.

Bench Press:
95×5
105×5
135×5
145×5
165×3
135×8

top set woulda been faster if i had someone help me unrack the bar. Im sure i can manage next weeks 165×5, but i might need to grab a spotter to help unrack, since im losing a bit of tightness from a fucked up bench height. The lower setting is at 4 board height, and the higher setting is a little higher than lockout so i look weird as fuck(no surprise here) getting the bar outta the rack.

Barbell Row:
95×5
115×5
135×5
155×5
175×3
155×8

Fuarrk back pumps. lats = destroyed.

need to eat more so i can win 165 and 170 bench next week.

Squat:

135×5

145×5

145×5

Press:

65×5

80×5

95×5

120×5

Deadlift:

135×5

185×5

275×5

325×5

Couple of guys from the PLing team were there today and one of em said “good set” to me after i finished my 325 set. For about 30 seconds, i felt the glory of being recognized for something, then returned to the feeling of solitude and hating everything/everyone around me. Also some angry Indian guy was scowling at me the whole fucking time. I hope he wasn’t serious… I am a homophobic… Aced my organic chem test. did ok on my math one. wayy too many problems for a 1 hour test.





Made a bet with a guy on BB.com

20 02 2012

The bet is that i need to bench 2 plates by april 15th. On Friday, i tested max, and i hit 190×1 but failed 200×1, so im assuming 195×1. Started Madcows since i DONT want to lose $50 for not adding a measly 30-35 lbs on my max which i think is completely doable.

 

Squat:
100×5
115×5
135×5
175×5
200×5

new form feels much better. tried to be as explosive as possible like fuzzy told me to do.

Bench Press:
95×5
105×5
115×5
145×5
160×5

loll. 145×5 felt heavier than 160.

Row:
95×5
135×5
145×5
155×5
170×5

done pendlay style. pretty nice pump tbh.

Back Thickness – Barbell Row
TT: 155x20RP

forgot straps. woulda had more if grip didnt suck.

Deadlift:
275×5; 315×3; 340×3

easy. imma pull mid 500s by the end of the year so that my deadlift will be even higher than my squat+bench.





My bulging biceps

13 02 2012

are nowhere to be found… yet.

Biceps –Incline DB Curl:
TT: 35s x 24RP
LT: 30s x 26RP

Forearms – Reverse Curl:

Thick, Solid, TIGHT

11 02 2012

Chest – Smith Incline Press

TT: 150 x 21RP

LT: 145 x 17RP

Shoulders – Seated DB Press

TT: 45 x 20RP

LT: 40 x 20RP

Back Width – Underhand Grip Pulldowns

TT: 165 x 23RP

LT: 160 x 21RP

Back Thickness – Deadlift

TT: 240×3; 275×3; 315×3

added weight and reps on smith incline. kinda lold at shoulder presses. hit 13 before failure on the first RP, and my rep range on those is 15-25, shit went down fast on those though. Dont know why but i hate pulldowns. ill still do em, but im gonna look for a better exercise than pulldowns once i can rotate lifts. Thinking either chinups in the 10-15RP range or rack chins. But i feel like rack chins are for fat people :/ Deads took 2 minutes lolololol.

 





BRO STYLE

8 02 2012

Biceps – Incline DB Curl:
TT: 30s x 27RP

Forearms – Spider Curl:
TT: 40s x 18 SS

Triceps – Smythe RGBP
TT: 145 x 25RP

Legs – Squat
TT: 155×3; 195×3; 215×3

Sticking with floor deads and squat with a 5/3/1 rep scheme, deload those when needed. Takes 2 weeks to complete a cycle on those lifts instead of 4. Doing curls real strict and seeing what happens instead of using momentum.

Gonna get 16+ inch arms by the end of the year.
