Killing season will begin shortly... Well no work... Just hanging around

Training was phenomenal. A couple guys who haven't seen me since I have been training in the AM were asking me what I have been running...I laughed because I am making progress twice as fast as them and they are on tons of shit. Either their shit is bunk or they don't know fuck about training and eating..

Forearms, bis and back
Reverse BB Curls (20-30RP) went up 5 lbs: 14+7+4 (25rp)
Preacher Curls (15-20RP) up 5lbs: 9+5+2
Underhand Lat Pulldown (15-20rp) 12+5+3
Meadows Rows 5x6-8 up 10lbs all sets hit 7 reps
Free motion 1-arm pulldown widowmaker
1-Arm Cable rows WM
Spider Curl WM

I squatted today for the first time in a bit, hit 455 for 10 then some banded leg presses followed by extensions. Damn works and academic schedule are killing me but it will pay off in the end.

Hope everyone is well.

Nice HellB! big legs come from hard work!..
I'm on my way to leg work in a sec myself. I would like to add some hatfield
bar squats with no wt but thinking I better hold back as they just now allowed me to add in 1lb dumbell in my shoulder rehabb. I'll hav eto get it all off exts presses and maybe some hacks. Hams will be all machine work as I can not stiff leg at all yet. Don't want to get gready and pull tndons trhough the sstainless bone anchors.Would turn the solid tendon into confetti.
So have to be happy I can even train at all at this point and amp up the stimulation through alternative means.Have a great day guys... T..

Hellbilly, well right now work isn't killing me because i am FURLOUGHED... but school is still a bitch.

Awesome Turbo! Love seeing that you are getting back into you groove.

Legs for me as well fellas

Seated Calf Raises 4x10-12 did a real deep stretch and contracted at the top
Seated Leg Curls 1x15 and 4x12 got a nice pump going thhere
45 degree dual contraction reverse GHRs (15-20RP) went up 5 lbs 10+5+2
Hack Squats went up 10 pounds on all sets 1x10, 1x8, 3x6 and one WM then i dropped it down and ddid as many rep as could and then did partials until I could move
Finished with one long set of leg extensions 12 full reps done nice and slow then kept going up by 10 lbs doing partials until I couldn't do any more then rested about 15 seconds and went all the way down the stack doing partials

Legs are soooooo freaking sore. I ate everything in sight when I got home. Made stir fry (right there is 75g protein and 75 g carbs), then had 3 cups of rice krispies with protein powder milk then a quest bar then a banana and yogurt...at that point I felt kind of full lol

Ok I've been trippin but still hit the gym regularly. Lol
Leg day today and really was a solid good time and amazed myself on let extentions of all things how my knees werent feeling the usual stress and so they grew dam nice . Ive really changed up the movements and sets which I think is what I needed for some confusion. Angled leg presses went up to the usual 10 plate a side before I dropped setted three more sets then on to trying to get the water outa my calves so I see some definiton .it sure bugs me so I'm mixing dandelion tea cold in my preworkout bev to piss between sets ..
Glad to see all is here and ok too..

Last night was back. Almost carbon copy as week prior with some small exceptions...like upping the weight on every lift some by 25%! and adding exercises.

Went something like this:

Reverse-Grip Pulldowns 4x10 (increase weight every set - IWES)
One Arm DB Rows 4x10 (IWES)
T-Bar Rows 5x15,12,10,10,8 (IWES)
Barbell Rows 3x10
Seated Cable Rows 3x10 (IWES)
Deadlifts 3x10,6,3 (IWES)
Hypers 3x10

Rest was kept at 1-2 min.

My strength is increasing daily. My bodyweight is increasing. kCals have been reduced by 20%. Read that again...
I can chalk this up to cleaning out entirely, my receptors and adrenal cortex were fried. Everything is better right now performance, sleep, growth -100% cleaned out.

Miller time.**

** 2 scoops hydro whey, creatine, gatorade (Cutler and Centopani's "no fancypants" choice of carbs. LOL)
BED. Did my impression of a rock in bed. Nice, rested and I earned this day off today.

Another day in furlough-ville... Went and got my bloodwork done this morning and the nurse had all these training questions for me cuz "it looked like I workout" lol I essentially gave her a free workout consultation... I dunno, when shit is shitty, it feels good to help out others and brings me up a little bit

Flat neutral DB Press (15-20RP) up 5lbs 12+5+3
Scoop Flye WM 23reps

Hey guys! Made it back in town last night! Had a great time in the sun! Ate too much, got too much sun, drank some tequila. It was perfect. Did not touch a weight the entire time. First week off I have had in 6 months so I didn't feel guilty.

THANK YOU ALL FOR THE BIRTHDAY WELL WISHES! Time goes too damn fast! But! I might have been the best looking old sack of shit on the beach LOL!!!

Good to see everyone is hitting it hard!! I couldn't stand it anymore so I trained legs today. Chest is on the agenda for Monday! I'm ready!
