[thebrick]

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.

Hope you can get some quality sleep and get some training in brother! Busy is good though!

Just trained Calves and Chest

Added drop sets on the last set of each exercise. Boosting the intensity a bit as I finish up this M4B transformation contest.

 

[turbobusa]

Chest and shoulders yesterday. Kinda sucked as the prior datys squat workout had my left shoulder arm nerves all fucked up. Was good though to just get some some stimulation with light high rep stuff. No biggie as this passes in afew days. Tomorrow will be back/traps light and thorough. I've missed most of my upper body work since mid march. Legs not so bad.. Getting ready to enjoy those killer gains after a layoff... I'm back .................. T

 

[thebrick]

Trained shoulder and traps today. That's 3 freakin' training sessions in a row! I have not done that since pre-chemo. Its hard to keep an old piece of shit down.

Good to hear you are about to hit your stride T... summertime lovin' it!

killed my workout tonight wowsers I've definitely missed it not been able to make it daily due to the heat it's already in the high 90's and hundreds, working 13+ hours a day 7 days a week, and getting up at 4 am. starting to take a toll on me. anyways update my log in the morning.

enjoy your evening everyone.

T - must be something in the air. I've been in a mood too. Too sarcastic. Wife asked me yesterday. What's wrong with you? You in a mood? I'm not sure... maybe.... gym's been full of "kids". Schools out. 'Bout half went off on a guy in a "friendly" way couple days ago in the gym. Nobody was putting their shit back and I wasn't in the mood to be their mom because I needed a bar. Unload your 225 yourself ya inconsiderate fuck. Sometimes stirring a little shit brings a smile to my face.

Phoe, glad you got in to sling some iron. Take care of yourself bro. All that work is good but take care of yourself too. Body needs sleep to keep it all going.

Let's have a great day and make it count for something.

 

[The Grim Repper]

Everybody's back and getting their aggression on! Hit arms last night, same workout as last time, but weights were up and contractions much better and focused on many exercises. I'm connecting more also since I've been training the wife again, so many days it's two gym visits within a 3 hour span. Training her before I hit my dungeon to work motivates me to train more and I still feel the role of the 'teacher' when I grab the bar, I talk more to myself to feel and stretch and relish each rep and the steps each repetition and meal I eat moves me toward my goals.
Have a wonderful day guys, grouchy is OK, but don't let negativity cloud the wonderful window through which you can see and enjoy the world around you.

Very true Grim!

Gonna lay out today and soak up some vitamin D cutting the grass. Planning on a gun show Friday.

You guys hit it hard.

 

[Sandpig]

Back, Traps and rear delts today.

High volume with very little rest between sets.

No drop sets or anything cause I knew I had a long ass day of work ahead of me in this 100+ degree heat.
