Well although I beat previous numbers (barely) it was a shit work out. I had to have my blood work done today at 8am. So they said I could not eat after 9pm day before. I pack some milk,mrp and some energy stuff to take right after I get out of the office. So I show up 10 min early not even open yet, lo and behold I go to get my driver lic. and I forgot it at home, on my copier/fax machine cause the doc needed a copy of it. Drive home 20 min. get back to the office and now there are 5 people ahead of me:wtf: So finally they call me, had me sign something and never even asked for my Lic. just typicle shit that happens in my life:biglaugh: :jester:

Lookin' good in here ese!

Got a few questions:

1. For your biceps workout at home (Thursday), do you have any heavier DB's? 40 RP is a hell of a cardio workout! :D

2. Do you feel as though you could squat more weight if you kept the SLDL's last in your workout? It doesn't matter where these two exercises fall in your workout, but IMO squats are the "king ding-a-ling" exercise for the day!

3. You're a big guy. For hammer strength equipment or anything barbell for chest, do you feel more benefit doing upwards of 20 RP compared to doing 11-15 RP heavier? IME, anything with DB pressing is awesome at 15-20 RP. What are your thoughts on this thus far in your training?

Definately NOT a shit workout bro! You must take into account that you're already lifting a lot of weight, so you're at the point to where either a weight increase OR rep increase (even 1-2 more reps) is tremendous progress. Remember that if you "max out" with a weight and cannot increase your total amount of reps, that you need to DUMP it for another exercise.

Yea i have heaver, but they make my arms hurt:biglaugh: I suppose I could go heavier

After doing squats, man I'm like done, I dont think I could do sldl after them.

You know I sorta flip flop on these, I think there are benifits to going higher reps. On the hammer mach it is very new to me but my plan is to get them to a 11-15 rp. I could probaly go heaver on the barbell chest work, but In the past when i try to start going heaver I start to get sloppy. This program sorta prevents that from happinig

Thursday--home

Back Thickness
1 x 12 x 225
1 x 14 x 225

O.k. so I was looking at how I was doing skull crushers and form was way off, it was a combination of crushers and c.g. bench press
so I switched to an e.z. curl bar and had better form lowered wieght. Also switched from t-bar rows to bent over b.b. rows for 2 reasons 1 didnt feel to safe since I'm using a regualr b.b. w/ one end against the wall felt like it was going to slip and crush a nut( after seeing the results of my blood test test levels I can't afford to hurt the boys) reason 2 didn't feel like I was getting the range of movement I should have w/ the 45's on one side. On a good note got aproved for h.r.t. and was very very surprised at what would be perscribed.:jester:
