Why don't you cut out the preworkout cardio? You're doing 15 reps...also your pre/post workout nutrition, imo, sucks. You'd probably feel less tired if you gave your body a leg up in recovery.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

That has been going away since I started doing vacumns with my ab training but I need to improve on it in any case. Could you explain the reverse crunches to me?

this is how you do them:
1.) lie down on a bench and get in the position as if you were doing knee raises
2.) start doing a leg raise (or a knee raise - depending on which one your talking about)
3.) your supposed to do knee raises till your trunk and legs are at 90 degress...now instead of stopping at 90 degrees, i want you to lift them till you cant lift them anymore...so thats like asif your curled up in a ball...
4.) once you've reached that position, "uncurl" yourself slowly and lower your legs...till you hit the END position of the leg raise...now this END position of the leg raise is your STARTING position of the reverse crunch....
5.) if you want to get a little adventurous, then do a reverse crunch and then at the top position thrust your feet out and maintain your entire bodyweight on your upper back without injuring your neck..so its like your ENTIRE thoracic cavity and legs are PERPENDICULAR to your bench and the only bodypart which is toughing the bench are your arms and upper back and neck.....then at this position try to thrust your legs even higher while maintaining the perpendiclar position and bring them down while maintaining the same perpendicular angle...

Well, damn, I'm glad I didn't say anything private in that private message

Thanks for the description....as great as weigthed ab pulls and stuff like that are it seems to have drawbacks after a while. I definitely need more variety in ab work .

i've changed my 10 rep mesocycle exercise selection...

here it goes:

1.) Smythe Machine Squats and if in Week 2 i feel confident, then i'll chage them to free weight Squats
2.) Romanian Deadlifts
3.) Flat Dumbbell Bench Press
4.) Incline Barbell Bench Press
5.) Dumbbell Rows
6.) Lat Pull Downs
7.) Machine (not smythe) Shoulder Press 2x15
8.) Preacher Curls
9.) Decline Tricep Extensions (Skull Crushers)
10.) Tricep Push Downs

lets see how today works out
