I know for certain Nikki has better biceps then me.
Thanks for the comments, much appreciated.
Oh, and Aqua and Kalle are both delusional ![]()
I did train this morning, had to squeeze in an hour workout, but donāt really feel like going through it in detail.
So basically, I supersetted hamstrings and back (the back half of me will start to get hammered)
Thatās all I got for now. I only have an idea of how Iāll bring up my lagging back half, but Iāve been doing diet and training plans all day, I donāt feel like doing one for myself at the moment. So right now, the plan is more frequency ![]()
I donāt know anything about either figure or bodybuilding but Iāve really been enjoying learning a bit about both in your log. You look pretty damn amazing to me ![]()
Nikki, just bench in the power rack, you dont have to worry about getting t-bagged their with a spotter, its much safer as well.
The plan is FST-7.
Just saw the pics! Fucking awesome.
Youāre making great progress. Your wheels and arms are ridic! I agree with the other re: the back/lat work. Hammer that and youāll be golden. Tummy looks good too! Youāve def leaned out.
I always forget how young you are btw!
just had my cocoa fix.
you are looking strong and delish. you need to set us up with a sexy belt pic non?
pretty please?
Looking good girl, like some of the users pointed out in your RMP thread you need to bring up the back! If you arenāt doing so already, Iād train back twice a week. I may have missed it, but what is your training split? I noticed you group muscles together ā your back is definitely going to need itās own day. Quads are looking damn fine!
blush Thanks alexus.
Matty, Iāve been thinking of benching in there but wondering about the placement of the racks. Too high, I wonāt get the full ROM I do, too low and Iāll be squished anyways.
Eh, Iāll try it with the rails a big higher and see how it goes.
Ct, sheesh, youāre making her do FST-7? Wowzers.
Thanks Maschy, and yep, Iām a baby.
Ha N, my belt pic will be something basic, nothing compared to yours ![]()
But Iāll get it tomorrow, super sorry about that.
Itās nothing cute like bright blue ahem, just black Goldās Gym belt.
Chi, I have been training back twice a week, I do a chest/arms, legs, back/shoulders split.
However I changed that up slightly as of last night ![]()
Thank you muchly.
K, as I just said, Iām doing something new for my back.
I finally remembered the back specialization program from Thibs.
But, I had to customize quite a bit since I donāt have time to only worry about my back. Soo⦠my new program will go like thisā¦
Back width/Shoulders
Lower back/hamstrings
Chest/Arms (starting with triceps since theyāre more important right now)
Off
Back Thickness/Triceps
Legs and Shoulders (Only 2 quad movements, main focus is hamstrings)
Off
Repeat
Iāll be throwing in wide grip pull-ups on back width days and others. Basically whenever my back isnāt completely thrashed.
Today I started with back width/shoulders.
Actually, I started with a fasted walk to the gym (50 minutes with ankle weights), then started with back width/shoulders.
A) Wide-grip pull-ups
(I have to do these in the squat rack, with 1 foot resting on the bar)
4 x 10
B1) Straight Arm Pulldown
B2) Rope Lat Pulldown
C) Seated Rope Rowing
30 x 10, 35 x 12, 40 x 10 x 2
D) Straight Arm DB Arc Row
20 reps with 15s
80 reps with 10s
Supposed to be 1 set of 100, but apparently 15s were too ambitious
Hang Clean and Press
65 x 9, 65 x 10, 75 x 4, 65 x 8
Machiine OHP
70 x 14
85 x 10 rep pr
Drop set from 95 -->20
Cable Side Laterals
5 x 12
10 x 8 x 2 I used my other hand to assist
Cable Front Raises
5 x 15
10 x 8
Facepulls
20 x 15
25 x 12
35 x 12
Cable X-Crossover Fly
One set with 5 lbs
Cut it short because some stalker guy kept following me
So I went to do 20 minutes intervals on the stairmill
Did a few sets of weighted ab crunches
Iām loving the program, canāt wait to see the results.
My back felt so WIDE, I could barely keep my arms to my sides ;D
Oh and today was the first time I added hang clean and presses to my shoulder workouts (Iāve been meaning to do that for a while) and I loved them more than I could have imagined.
yeah your right about benching at the rack, it takes some getting used to. If your like me and have a rather large head its hard squeezing between the bar and the railsā¦your split looks good, your quads look good from the pics so I see why your concentrating on your hammies more. Out of curiosity are you looking to hit particular heads of the tris on different days?
nikki!ā>I spotted a vid of you --and i repeat that you are beautimus!
And QUITE strong :)!! makes me happy to read your log ![]()
Is there a reason you do your cardio before a workout?
Matty, the bar will squish my āgirlsā before my head, thatās what Iām afraid of ![]()
No, all heads of my tris will be hit each time I train them.
Aww Brute stop⦠nah, keep going ;D
Chi, 90% of the time, itās either I walk to the gym or I donāt train at all that day.
Today was lower back and hamstrings (dun dun dun)
![]()
Oh canāt forget the fasted walk to the gym, 50 minutes, ankle weights again.
Iām starting to dig this FMC. I never advised it before because of light-headedness and losing muscle thing, but 1) the new TN article restored my confidence in it and 2) I found that coffee and thermogenics before and drink 0 calorie ****** during helps a lot. I blanked it out so as to not impose my products on you guys ![]()
So now Iām starting to love it.
K, training.
DLs superset with 10 wide-grip pull-ups (foot on bar again)
135 x 5
185 x 4
225 x 2
265 x Fail
I think I did some other attempts, DLs SS with pull-ups freaking killed my grip, but I guess my lats are more important than DL PRs pout
Rack Pulls
95# x 100
Iām still doing the HS-100 thingy from Thibs hence the 100 reps. You 'member, 'member?
SLDLs (I started doing these with a deadstop if anyoneās interested)
95 x 12
135 x 10
145 x 9
Teabag whats-his-face came to say hi to me. Argh.
I guess if two people know each other as intimately as he and I though, an approach-and-wave is warranted.
Alas, I was uncomfortable SLDLāing in front of him so I left my squat rack to continue hammies elsewhere.
GHRs on Smith Machine
3 x 12
GMs
70# x 15 x 3
Prone Leg Curls
80 x 8
75 x 9

Tragic, tragic. Hammies were dead, but feeling thick. Yum
Walking lunges superset with 20 jump lunges
35# x 20 x 2
BB Hip Thrusts
110 x 15 x 3
Teabag guy came back just in time for this exercise⦠oye.
Glute kickback machine superset with calves

50 minute walk back home.
Iām quite happy with today <3
Whereās the rest of your lat work girlie? ![]()
looking GREAT girl! damn your legs are str8 diesel. =+)
Haha Bobbi, Iām just following the program, Iām putting my lats in Thibsā hands ;D
Suprisingly, my back feels pretty awesome after yesterdayās workout. I wouldāve never thunk lol
Why thank you Deja.
Nice training. DLS supersetted with pullups is hardcore. I am a little bummed to read that you donāt have a a soft spot for tea bag guy thoughāthe story as to how you two met would be so awesome to recount.
Picture it. So, how did you two meet?
Lol at encounter 2.0 w/ Mr. Teabag.
In all seriousness, looks like a pretty kick ass workout ![]()
Oh btw, ever thought of using straps so you can work your muscles without having to worry about your grip?
