Uh strength is doing alright I dont think I lost too much if I did it was only on pressing, Ive lost about 20lbs so far, which i guess is good considering its day 21 ha
Don’t worry man, you have good traps, I just interpreted something as you weren’t happy w/ them somewhere, probably just made it up in my head. I should probably accept one of these days I’m not gonna reach your size without gaining a ton of strength too… but rather then train PLerstyle I’m just going to opt for seeing where added bodyweight takes me. How did you train when you built your initial size/strength anyhow? Got me wondering
That’s some solid lifting. I didn’t know you were that strong lol.

I also suck at dumbells
Unfortunately, no vids with the mystery man himself (for privacy reasons). I did take one pic I may post.
Anyways, I’m about an hour out of Boston on my way back. I had an incredibly fun weekend. Here’s what I did Sat morning with BONEZ. I was pretty hungover and got madddd overstimmed as we were driving to the gym, but I got over it and we had a good session. I just followed his lead.
Incline DB curls - alternating
20s x 12
20s x 12
30s x 12

Bar + 35/side x 12
Bar + 45/side x 10
Bar + 25/side x 15
Meadows hammer curls
40s x 12, 10, 10
Overhead cable curls - on the pulldown
4 sets supersetted with tri pressdowns/extensions to warm up. Did a few extra sets of rope pressdowns
Plate loaded dips - awesome machine

Jesus I second that.
Bug are you still tearing it up man??
JM
Hall-hall – ahh boo, thank you! that day was the right combo of great lighting and leanness, so to improve my t-nat E-credz, the pic stays. Bonez def has some 'mazin forearms.
Aggar – ha, they were not strict dude. Form was really good till about halfway through the 50s, then I sat up a lil more into it. 60s were the same way, but since BONEZ was doing them, I obvi was gonna do them. Curling strength doesn’t really matter though… mine has always been good, and my arms still suck so w/e. Probably leverages and tendons and stuff like that.
jskra – ha, thanks dude! they def have come along nicely over the years without too much stress. yours don’t look too bad either. big delts look awesome (I mean like monster cannon balls).
Oregand – and many thanks to you as well my dude! each avatar you look bigger and bigger, keep that shit up!
Big JM – first off, congrats on your show! you looked seriously awesome. But yeah, I’m back to killin it. Been an interesting summer, life and training wise, but now I’m in a new city (Boston) with a big boy job, and just getting into the swing of things. Expect big things from me this winter. 
Had a great back amd bis session tonight. Couldn’t help but think as I was walking home how much BS I hear from people that are “too tired” to lift because of work. Give me a break. Some professions I understand, but if you work a semblance of regular hours and are just making excuses… you will get no sympathy from me.
Thorough warm up. Cute female gym employee was joking with me about my poptarts. she wants it. 
(jk).
Deadlifts – liking the way they are improving each week. First work set was a little slower than I wanted, but each one got easier and easier. Awesome.
135 x 5
225 x 3
315 x 3
405 x 1
455 x 3 x 3 – like I said, last one was the easiest. 2 weeks ago I did 405 x 3x3 and it was a similar level of difficulty.
Pullups – these have been feeling great after deadlifts. Consciously flaring lats while going up and down.
BW x 12, 10, 9, each set supersetted with rope straightarm pulldowns. DAT PUMP.
Seated wide neutral grip cable rows - meh, not great. Pulldowns were taken.
3 ascending sets of 12, 10, 10 reps.
One-armed bent-over cable rows – simulates a DB row. Nice squeezes.
4 sets of 10
Did 2 sets of pulldowns but my lats were too pumped to feel them.
3 sets of 15 band pullaparts - FOR DA REAR DELTZ.
3 sets of 15 rear delt fly masheeen.
Wanted to do inverted BW rows but everything was taken, so did 3 sets of 15 wide grip chest supported t-bars, focusing on the top-half ROM, squeezing rear delts. Only medium effective. Will not do again.
Lat stretch. Pain.
Rope cable curls – not hammer style, would still partially supinate each rep. Were decent, but prob won’t do again.
5-6 sets of 15, 15, 12, 12, 12, 10 or so.
Fixed bar curls
65 x 12, 10, 10 (low rest)
Preacher DB hammer curl - one arm at a time, no rest, back and forth, back and forth
22.5 x 15 LR, 12 LR, 10 LR, 10 LR
Bicep stretch.
Leg press calf raises, 5 sets.
FIN. About an hour 45. That was fun.
Stealing this workout, minus your calf raises. You can keep those.
Why wouldn’t she want your poptart. U r amazin
is dis yo daddy
^
lulz
strong back session Bug.
God, why are you so beautiful bug?
sex
Pretty hawtsexiluvin chest and tris session. Went with my gut on some things and just had fun, as I’ve been doing. Also, I weighed in around 215 post workout.. dunno what that’s about. Probably just bloated from a solid day of eating and fluid intake. Might throw up a pic later to evaluate if I’m gettin fat.
Thorough warmup (PVC back, IT, glutes, pec, band work, etc). Let the carbs (poptarts) go down. 
Bench felt very very good today. I could tell from my first warmup set it was gonna be good. Setup felt good, weights flew up until the last warmup, but I knew that shit was in my head. Det, can’t thank you enough for the direction you’ve given my bench!
Still 5/3/1’ing it kinda. Bumped my working max 10 lbs instead of 5 like a boss.
Bench press
bar x 8
95 x 5
135 x 5
185 x 3
---- 5 week!
215 x 5
245 x 5
280 x 13 - LOL. I coulda gotten another easy, maybe 2. Had someone keep an eye on me, but no spot or lift off. That’s probably a PR of some kind. 315 x 10, here we come.
225 x 5 paused
Incline DB press
70s x 10
100s x 10 - a little bit uncomfortable, and didn’t feel super strong, so just stopped.
Close grip decline - cuz Evan did them. Slow negatives
135 x 8
225 x 8
275 x 6 drop 135 x 20
Machine flies
4 sets of 12, squeezed obvi.
Should have done a chest stretch, but I didn’t because I’m stupid.
Rope pressdowns – god I love a good tri pump.
5 ascending sets, pretty high rep (last one I got maybe 12).
Standing one-armed overhead DB ext. / Cordova ext. superset – Did them kind of weird thought; I’d do one arm DB extensions, then same arm Cordova, then other arm. Rest was almost non existent. this was seriously awesome, I recommend.
20 x 12 / 30 x 10 LR
22.5 x 12 / 30 x 12 LR
27.5 x 12 / 35 x 10 LR
27.5 x 14 / 35 x 10 LR - goddddddd yes.
V-bar pressdowns - trying to spread apart the bar at the bottom.
4 sets up to the stack for a controlled, but tough 10.
Tricep stretch.
5 sets of calf raises, then 10 min of stair stepper.
Yes yes yes yes yes. Will probably take tomorrow off if I can force myself so that I can do some laundry tomorrow night and kill legs on Thursday.
omg pix plz
