Gender:  |  Day Four ARMS! 177lbs A1-Barbell Curl 85 A2-DB Curls 30 B1-Preacher Curls (EZ Bar) 75 B2-Hammer Curls 30 C1-Weighted Dips BW C2-Standing Triceps Extensions (DB) 55 D1-Close-Grip Bench 115 D2-Skullcrushers 75 I went a little lighter on bi's today because I wasn't sure if my forearms could handle the weight I did before, so I just played it safe today. I love the D1,D2 combination, it really got the job done. I couldn't add any weight to the dips because the weight belt was unavailable (whatever that means  )My arms were just about ready to explode, the pump was nuts. Everything seems to be going well so far. Leg day will be the test of my might  |

Gender: | This workout was supposed to be sunday, but I couldn't make it. So I did it today. Day Six LEGS 177lbs A1-A2G Back Squat 115 A2-Leg Press 200 B1-Machine Squat 360 B2-Stiff Legged Dead Lift 135 C1-Deadlifts 225 C2-Calves - This was by far the most ridiculous leg workout of ovt thus far. It took everything out of me. I tried to do calves but my legs were shaking so much I couldn't do anything. I know the numbers aren't very impressive but this is pretty much what my legs can handle. A2G can probably go up to 135...but everything else is going to be hard to do. Maybe in 2 weeks or so I will be able to pump the numbers up a bit. I definitely put alot of effort into the workout though, my legs are by far my weak point so I'm really focusing on building them up fast. |

Gender: | Day One Chest/Back (workout done yesterday) 179lbs A1-Bench Press 185 190 A2-Dumbbell Pullover 80 80 B1-Incline Bench 135 140 B2-Incline Flyes 30 30 C1-Lat Pulldown 150 150 C2-DB Rows 55 55 D1-JS Rows 135 145 D2-Seated Cable Row 125 125 I've posted weeks 1 and 2 for easy comparison of my progress. 180lbs is just around the corner! I'm starting to get stuck in flat bench..after 2 sets I tried to up it to 195, got one set out, went to 200 got half the set out, and went back to 190. Next workout I'm going to try pyramiding 180, 185, 190, 195, 200 and then the next week try 185, 190, 195, 200, 205 etc... Other than that nothing new to report. |

Gender: | Day Two Shoulders/Traps 179lbs A1-Standing Military Press 95 105 A2-DB Front Raises 10 10 B1-Arnie Press (DB) 40 45 B2-Side Laterals 15 15 C1-Bent Over Laterals 30 35 C2-Hammer Strength Row 180 180 D1-Power Shrugs 225 245 D2-Close Grip Upright Rows 95 95 Again I am posting weeks 1 and 2 for comparison. My hip flexors were screaming after the I put the weights down on Militaries and the Bent Over Laterals (curse of the OVT leg day?!?  ). I cannot weight (haha) to break the 180lb mark  . Other than the immense pain in my hip flexors after releasing the DB/BB and my amazing use of puns...nothing new to report ;) |

I kinda planned for a drop when I switched the exercises, just to get used to them, but unfortunately the drop has been a bit higher than expected. I planned this block for 5 weeks to compensate for a possible drop in week 1, so expect the numbers to go up when I post my next leg workout ;)...I hope | |

| Kane, dont worry so much about the wieght drop, focus on getting your form down. I'm going through the same thing right now, i havent done any squats at all in over a year, A2G's are amazingly hard to do. Lookin good though, good wieghts keep workin hard bro. |
