thebrick's - What are you Training Today?

[AtomAnt]

Sorry guys, haven't been on here all weekend. Friday hit Chest, shoulders and tris. Think I pulled something a little in my chest. My right pec has a tender black and blue spot. Nothing serious, so I should be fine. Saturday was a nice bis and back workout.

Today was a wicked wheel day. I finished with the stiff leg deadlift pyramid cluster and after my last rep I grabbed the garbage can and yacked. M legs are killing me.

Happy Memorial Day and remember who this day is for.

 

[thebrick]

Dang Turbo! Hope you didn't zap that shoulder too bad. Take care of that and let us know.

Atom, any visit to the vomitorium means success on the front side of the workout in my book.

Hit back today and it was an awesome one. I was sweating like a mother. Shirt was soaked when I was done. You could see my trail of sweat on the floor.

 

[tripletotal]

Holy shit, Turbo! That sounds like a pretty bad dislocation to cause that much swelling.

But...did the aquarium survive?

 

[turbobusa]

Yeah traded shoulder for aquarium sucessfully. I am getting ready for the gym.
Will go in and see whats doable. I'm rapidly turning into a mean bastard from missing my gym time... Hope all had great weekends. Have a great day and week.I'll whine back later after the gym... T

 

[Ironbuilt]

I'm on a recovery day and trying to ditch a migrane but hard to with ear plugs in and construction noise going on. glad everyone had a safe or semi safe weekend. Ib

 

[AtomAnt]

Did some AM cardio today. I am going to be doing cardio before work on Tuesdays and Thursdays just to keep tight.

I'm also going to be starting a cruise period because I keep getting recurring stomach pain and on some days have difficulty eating. Yeah, I had a few days where I was eating good, but this shit is like a roller coaster. Every day is another adventure. Oh well.....

 

[turbobusa]

Hope you and IB both rally and feel better soon. Well here is what I did in the gym.

 

[turbobusa]

whoops hit send to soon. I did super light pre ex and used hammer stuff only today. better tha nothing. Went to legs after chest hams first then 2 sets superlight 60 rep leg exts. immediatley hopped on leg press loaded very light(650) and repped out rest pause sets . Back to 1 more set of 40 legs exts
immediatly on to 1 slow mo high rep rest pause hack. Back to hammies two sets called it a day. Betcha I'm sore as fuck in the legs tomorrow . all with light wt and low injury aggravation. There is always a way..... Thanks....T

 

[thebrick]

Glad to hear from my brothers in iron today.

Hit chest. Not shabby, not great. Hard to beat old personal best lifts when the shoulder is grinding in there anymore. Still had a good one though. Getting older ain't for pussies.

 

[Ironbuilt]

. I actually did go lift and did dead lift tire change in solid traffic. Thot I'd get some but all I got was a sore back and almost ran over .. I got plugged sinuses so if u talk to me it's really me. Legs this am .

 

[thebrick]

Damn, Iron, glad you didn't get run over. I'd count changing a tire as a set.

I am on the job working all day. Got shoulder down for tomorrow.

Make some noise in the gym brothers!

 

[tripletotal]

Wow. We sound like sad bunch today! Deadlift and double KB squats up to 32kg today with a partner. Actually got some work in...gonna be good and sore tomorrow.

Hope everybody has a good, relaxing evening and wakes up tomorrow in much better condition than they fell asleep in.

Hey Brick ,triple.. No T ,,he's singing the pontoon song in the rain I think,
Man I did legs today squats , hacks, iso hammy, iso hammy cable curls( the girl in me) quad extentions , and walking db lunges . Had a strange thing happen , mid squat set on 325 I got a migrane up my neck to head , kinda woosey so I dropped the weight back to 265 so I could finish and then had to sit down. So I got bummed out after calves quick to go home where I became real edgy.. Took till now midnite to relax . Lol . Tomorrow back day. My fav..ib

Sounds like a great workout except for the migraine. Exercise induced migraines often respond well to a couple different muscle relaxers.

Dammit!!! Sorry Tri, I sure hate that for you. You can still hit upper body though?

Iron, headaches, not fun. Hope you are feeling better

Had a great shoulder trap workout this afternoon. My training partner and I were revving each other up for sure. Best one I have had in a while.

 

[Ironbuilt]

Oh man sorry to hear that Tri terror hope u can at leas hobble in to the gym
What knee ? Gas pedal or clutch knee?
Had a decent back day. Nothing to heavy because ive still got a headache that hurts more the more weight I do so I think tomorrow is get red count check like turbo said to do..maybe my eyes are worse and need stronger contact lens too
Glad everyone thus far is tossin steel no matter what. Keep it up.ib

 

[tri-terror]

Yeah man, this will give me a chance to hit chest and back a couple times a week. No deads which sucks bad but I'm going to kill chins and hammer strength rows.

Aw man TT sorry that happened . Work what you can around the injury without aggravating it. That way when you resume traing the injurred part you won't have the whole body to catch up.
Man that sucks but you will get through it, Gh Gh gh. Surgury first .
Scope or open?.. T
