Well got great news heavy rain and thunderstorms, possible tornadoes so off til Monday been working 5-7 days a week this weeks been 13-15 hours. So I'm heading to the house to surprise the old lady and hope to get there before she gets off to show up with some roses.

Hope everyone enjoys their weekend. Long hours so diet and hitting the gyms been out to the wayside for the time being. Still making it to the gym 4+ times a week my legs grow like trees so been skipping then when I can't make it but 4 times a week. Routine I switched up to
Day 1 chest/bi's/calves
Day 2 back/shoulders/traps
Day 3 tri's/bi's
Day 4 usually off legs if I make it
Day 5 repeat day 1 if I missed a few days in there somewhere otherwise legs
Enjoy your weekend brothers I definitely will haven't been with the wife in 2-3 weeks so it'll be nice. Next weeks looking like 90-100+ hours. So don't know how much I'll make it to the gym hoping atleast 4 days but play it by ear. I have an hour commute each way to work so that on top of 12-16 hours a day makes hitting the gm pretty difficult.

Carpe diem brothers remember there's those among us who have battled much greater battles than 4-6 hours of sleep a night and still made time for the gym even through sickness.

Miss being able to post as much.

Tricep pushdowns 20 reps palms up grip superset with 20 reps palms down grip
4 sets performed in this manner
Overhead DB extension 4x20

Brothers, I have what I think is excellent news and I wanted to share since you all have been so supportive. I got the report back on my post-surgery, post-chemo CT scan from early last week and they did NOT see anything that looked suspicious! Clean! They did see some spots on my kidney, but both the radiologist and surgeon feel confident they are blood clots from the stent I had up in there. The stent came out last week too. I go back in 8 weeks for them to look again after all the inflammation from the stent has gone away for them to be 100% sure. I'll be checked regularly for a very long time, but for now its a great start!! I am sitting here VERY relieved and with a smile on my face!

You all have been great! Its been a life changing diagnosis but I am looking forward to getting my life back together and being more regular in the gym. Planning on starting that Monday!

 

[MattG]

Brick that is outstanding news brother!

 

[The Grim Repper]

Brick, I am so happy to hear that my friend. You've given so much in the way of inspiration to so many here and I know that you'll continue to inspire and motivate those here to really live not just exist and to always keep pushing forward.

Pizza, now we're talking!

Morning AnaSCI, happy Monday!
Spent Saturday training, then training the wife (at two different gyms in three hours, ) , picking fresh strawberries and getting some much overdue soft tissue work.
Spent yesterday at the beach with the family. Had my meals with me, body's like a blast furnace right now. Tonight is some chest, calves and abs - doing more volume tonight will check in later.
Have a fantastic day brothers and sisters!

Since today is Monday, I'm heading to the gym to train arms while everyone else is doing chest.

And Brick, that's great news!

You need to try Grims supinated/pronated tricep superset since your doin arms today...i did those yesterday, badass. The weight used with underhand grip is perfect when you switch over, gave me an awesome pump! Like them almost as much as skullcrusher/closegrip superset with ez curl bar

Welcome back to the land of the living you've been missed.

Today will be first day in the gym since last Tuesday. Been running all around this state chasing work and then got rained out last Friday so headed back he for the weekend. Now gotta go talk to the boss Cuz he wants me to stay up here and work and then head off to the gym for national chest day. Yep whenever I miss more than a few days I just restart my entire routine over easier that way.

Glad to see more people posting as of late. And great to see you back too T.

 

[thebrick]

Trained chest today and I loved it. Not real strong but my plan is to keep it rolling now things have settled down. You guys should see my calendar from Jan.-May this year... ha! Nothing not doctors, now its going to be replaced by iron!

Good to see everyone! Anybody heard from Atom? Missing him checking in.

 

[Phoe2006]

Chest and bi's today killed it. Hopefully I have enough sleep tonight to make it to hit back and shoulders tomorrow. Moneys great working(being at the job site that is) 12+ hours a day but sucks for training.
