Been away from the gym forn a while due to health reasons, but looking forward to getting back at it soon. Glad to see others still killing it. Hope all is well

Good to see you Phoe!

No training today. Rest day. Tomorrow I have labs and infusion. Planning on training Friday before that shit really kicks in.

 

[MattG]

Recoup day for me today. Yesterday was 9 days straight at the gym and one or two of those days i went twice...so i dont feel too bad about taking a day off.

Traps:

front bb shrugs ss with db side shrugs last sets dropsets

* not sure what these are really called, only seen a couple ppl ever do them...basically you move your shoulders from front to back at the same time you are shrugging, so that you make a complete circular motion...i really like how they hit my traps, feel different from any other type of shrug

It seems like everyone does chest and arms Mondays at my gym.

Legs for me

 

[thebrick]

Mike, I think that is true just about everywhere.

And speaking of which I trained chest today. Doctor suggested I do more of a maintenance routine during chemo so thats what I am doing. Energy and strength is just not there for a ball-buster. Still feels good though and helps keep my head screwed on straight.

Let's plan on a good week brothers.

Was just thinking about you earlier Brick.
Man I wish we had the T-bar row at my gym. Good work

For me today was chest and some arms after.

 

[thebrick]

rAJ, t-bars have been my staple for years. I had my best growth on back doing nothing but dead lifts, t-bars and pull-downs. Hard and heavy. Worked real good.
