I feel like a bit of an idiot asking this, but isn’t Listerine a type of mouthwash? I’m assuming that’s not what you’re using?
HAHA
Ya i have been watching him write that for the last week, and have been wondering is he rinsing his mouth out before he goes or something rofl.
Man you guys are missing out on not using Listerine pre workout. It kicks ass. Aggression is through the roof, everything moves, and you are generally ready for war. No no I don’t rinse my mouth with it. It merely makes the suspension in diesel fuel go down easier. It is only the first part of the symphony.
So your saying you drink mouthwash?
Sure do…Dr John Ziegler’s special formula. moonwalks backwards, rubbing his chest and grinding his hips with Rihanna’s SOS playing in the background [/quote]
lol…ok. I brought a bottle last week so maybe I’ll try this. How much do you take pwo? 2mL?

He’s putting up 135 for reps now. lol
Yeah boys thanks for the suggestions, I’ll probably just toy around with a little cardio, and then budget my money and eat a bit cleaner seeing where this takes me.

lol no dude. I probably shouldn’t be going over 1.5mL but it felt like the right thing to do at the time.

either its just a mark from something stupid
orrrrr
its stretch marks on my traps which would be sick.
it probably isnt but if a few days go by and i still have it i will be stoked.[/quote]
Yeah mine get worse if I do some machine calve rises. The damn pads don’t do shit when you are using the entire stack.

It all depends on how your body functions bro. I can stay pretty tight when I bulk as long as I get my cardio in but fat gain is inevitable with my makeup. Or you can be like Gerdy that can eat pretty much anything and the fucker will have abs while doing it. Throw in the cardio and clean up even the dirtiest of dirty. Example: If you are hitting up Mickey D’s get 4 of those grilled chicken snack wraps without the sauce and only eat 2 of them entirely and the rest just eat the chicken. 68g of pretty clean protein IMO. Where there’s a will there’s a way.
In light of the progress photos, I thought maybe some progress vids wouldn’t be a bad idea. I thought of this when going through my youtube account and seeing how much stronger I’ve gotten in the past year and a half. March of 2008 I had 265x5 and July of 09 I had 335x3. So in 16 months, 1 1/3 years, I increased my bench 70 pounds for reps even though it’s two less reps than before and my max is about 90 pounds more since that time frame as well.
Anyways:
265x5 3/13/2008
275x5 4/16/2008
295x5 09/02/2008
315x4 05/09/2009
335x3 07/14/2009
Enjoy haha.
Great session today

Today’s workout:
Circuit, front squats, bent over rows, RDLs (all at 135 lbs), push presses (at 95 lbs). 4 rounds, 12 reps on each exercise on all 4 rounds.
DB bench:
75x10
85x6
95x6
And that was it, since I’m runnin another fucking PFT tommorow. Just wanted to get the heart rate up and do a bit of chest. Planning on legs tomorrow depending on how they’re feeling after the running portion…
Finally stalled on my dead lift, got greedy and went from 385 to 405. Gonna switch back to some higher reps on the deads, 6-8 instead of 3-5.
Back and Chest.
Rack Chin ( switched weighted chins for these after CC said they were the greatest thing ever in the world for width)
BW x 10
BW x 10
BW + 40 x 10
BW + 60 x 9/5/3 RP’d ( felt like somebody was trying to pull my damn lats off)
Dead Lift
275 x 5
315 x 5
365 x 3
405 x BIG GIANT FUCKING 0
315 x 11
Straight arm pullover - 120 x 10
BB bench - Was a bitch and just did straight sets today, no hand off or spots, just threw couple wheels on.
225 x 4/4/6/6
no lockout, great pump, finally got the “tuck” down so my arms aren’t flared, lost some poundage doing it this way but that’ll come up quick.
Freemotion incline fly - 160 x 6/6/5
BB curls in the squat rack - 115 x 5
Weird workout, not bad. Just weird. Maybe I should have taken some stimulants or some mouth wash before the workout, picked up some more caffeine pills on the way home

LMAO! @ the constant use of mouth wash. Another GB classic I guess. What is the dosage on those JB? 200 or better I hope. I have to make mine and I can only get them up to 300mg per cap.
3rd day of DC but I’m still changing my exercise selection around so I’d say I haven’t properly started it yet.
Workout was good, but damn! My DB bench is complete shit. Still worse than my shoulder press was not to long ago. Oh well, I guess it’s just a matter of sticking with it and progressing.

The rep ranges were so different then what I usually worked with, so it took me about two cycles through to figure out what weights I needed on some exercises.
GB, 200 mg a piece, so 2-3 of those or 2 and Rockstar Blue and Im usually set.

Good to see you still hanging around man!
Hope the marines arn’t killing you too bad.
Chest/tri’s/calves
Bench: 430 x2+1
Incline: 380 x1+2
Nothing special for tri’s, great DC calves session though. I love that burn. Fellas if you struggle with calves and aren’t doing them DC style, get with the fucking program 
Hopefully I’ll have pics tomorrow.
