working sucks dude...i agree :)

nice numbers though...nothing to shake a stick at.


btw...next time you try max bench...there is a post in monsta's journal about warmups...i think talo posted it...i used it a few weeks ago when i did my max and i think it worked out real well...

That is definitely a good post on warm-ups. It should help you out when you go for a max bench. Good luck. :weights:

Saturday May 10th/2008

Squats (volume)
- bar x 5
- 135lbs x 5
- 175lbs x 3
- 195lbs x 2
- 210lbs 3x8

Done and done. Wasn't sure when I started cause I worked all day again but it wasn't as much ladder climbing today so I felt better.


Bench
- bar x 6
-135lbs x 5
-175lbs x 3
-195bs x 1
-215lbs 3x3

Very happy that I finished this. It was a slow grinder for the last reps but I got it. Score.

Pull-Ups

bw+25lbs 3,3,2
bw x 6

I just did as many reps as I felt were very good quality and then stopped. I like this method better.


Dips

bw + 35lbs x 7,6

Ran out of time. Gym closed. I failed anyways. Oh well.


Calf Raises
no time


Hamstring Curls
no time

Well this day felt much better then last day. A little bit less intense work today. Not as much ladder climbing. Bench and squats were confidence boosters.

Oh ya, I looked for that warmup section but I couldn't find it. I found some sweet vids of Monsta lifting mad weight but no warmup stuff. If someone could link me to it that would be swoot. Thanks.

IronWorker

Thanks Pity. That looks alot like what I use already. The only real difference I see is that I don't do two sets of those lighter weights.

Nice work on the bench and squats. :weights:

Thanks widdoes! I appreciate all the encouragement.

IronWorker

No problem. Keep up the good work.

way to finish your workout I-dub. i know that was a great feeling.
