For realz and someone clue him in to stay the heck outta PW…pwease and tanks
Had the weirdest off sesh ever for back today. No need to write it out. Tried some stuff, was heavy, did some pump work, rears, then 20 min stairstepper. Back on that horse tomorrow.
To start this whole “lose last week’s bloat” process, I had only EAAs till 3:30, at which point I had 60g of whey and a large salad. Didn’t get to the gym till about 8, before which I had more EAAs and 2 poptarts. So not too much food today. This might turn into a little bit of an off week, we will see. Im also trying use less pre-workout stims (basically down to a caff. pill) and still get the same effect. Not easy. By the end though, I felt pretty good, and I think going for pump emphasis was a good idea. Post workout weight on a scale that supposedly reads heavy was 208… water already dropping. I dedicate this workout to RV:
Thorough warmup
Decline bench
95 x 20
135 x 20
185 x 20
225 x 19 - dat pump
Low-incline bench - in the squat rack OH SUP. Hadn’t done regular barbell inclines in awhile, and these felt pretty good… tempting to add back in full time, maybe make them a primary movement once decline craps out.
95 x 10
135 x 10
185 x 10
225 x 10
HS Incline cross-body press - low rest, squeezed
1 plate x 12 LR
25 + 1 plate x 12 LR, 12 LR
Pec deck
4 sets of 15
Fixed straight bar curls - 30 sec rest between sets. Oooooof
55 x 18, 15, 15, 15, 13
2-armed cable hammers - squeezed, 45sec rest
Forget-what-weight x 15, 15, 15, 15, 15
Rope pressdowns
60 x 20
90 x 18, 15, 15, 12
Low-incline DB skulls
15s x 20
20s x 15, 15, 15, 12
Tri stretch, calf superset (4x), fin. Felt good by the end.jpg. Off tomorrow. Might do EAA fast till dinner tomorrow. Oh mai.
so many repz. what is it about fixed-bar curls? reverse curls using them feel great particularly great too…
jake, ya I know. doing them high reps, low rest like that is pretty brutal too in a pumptastic sort of way.
Update of last couple days: work has been nuts, been doing pretty long fasts, low cals, appetite has been kinda meh, sick of my own food, yada yada. Went to bed early for me last night, slept well, but was still tired all day. Didn’t eat much today either, and was at work quite late, but I came home and got my head right, then head out for some night-time legs… Inspired by a Jose Raymond / Dana Linn Bailey vid.
Warmup, stretch, ee tee cee
Leg extensions
65 x 15 + 3 bottom partials + 3 top squeezes → x2
90 x 15 + 3 bottom partials + 3 top squeezes → x2
130 x 12 + 3 b.p. + 3 t.s
150 x 12 drop 110 x 10 drop 70 x 10 drop 50 x 10. Wobbly wobbly wop.
Front squats - deep reps, slight pause at bottom, no lockout (until last set)
95 x 10
135 x 10
185 x 8
225 x 8
275 x 6
335 x 3 – silly me wearing a beater, bar slipping on my sweaty delts. Was relatively heavy tho, hadn’t gone this heavy in awhile. lolz
Leg press - top set was flippin brutal. made a friend afterwards
3pps x 20
5pps x 15
7pps x 15 drop 5pps x 10 drop 4pps x 10 drop 3pps x 10 drop 2pps x 15 drop 1pps x 20 rock bottom paused, explode. WOWEE.
Lying leg curls - my calves were cramping so hard, I guess from the other day + some dehydration… I couldn’t squeeze these hard because it felt my calves were gonna rip off the bone. Strange sensation. Modified the ROM a bit to minimize that. w/e. I was gassed anyways.
65 x 12
110 x 12
140 x 12
155 x 10
110 x 15
70 x 20
Some more 'rollin, then grabbed fuckin CHIPOTLE 5 min before they closed. Devoured it in maybe 110 seconds. Happy bug is happy.
Chipotle = happy.
IDK bout the pop tarts but I co-sign the Chipotle
I’ve been a bad boy, Hallowed… As this local burrito shop was having FREE BURRITOS yesterday (or upgrade to a BIG size for a dollar), I managed 2 burritos for dinner last night for the price of 1 dollar. Winning. Was eating with my bud and we had some candy as well. SIlly perma-bulkers.
Totally forgot to post up last night’s training, prob because it was quite forgettable. I was at work pretty late for a friday, stressful day in general, and was feeling “blah” and had a hard time getting into it… didn’t really at all, but got some blood in at least. Been kind of a “meh” week of lifting… Will play it by ear, but may take a couple days off (or more) after today. Being tired, plus having painfully sore muscle groups (legs and chest) takes it out of me I guess? /whine
Warmup
Seated DB laterals warmup - 3 sets of 25 with the 10s
Standing rear delt DB flies
15s x 25
20s x 25
25s x 20
30s x 15
35s x 12
Seated DB laterals / front raises / press triset - started feeling a little more alert
8/8 LR/8 with the 35s
Standing military press – dunno what “got into me”, but it seemed like a good idea at the time
95 x 10
135 x 10
155 x 10
185 x 5
3 sets inverted bw rows.
Some one legged calf presses, some more shoulder mob stuff, and done. w/e. Gonna hit arms in about an hour, then go into work for the rest of the day.

I just went to Chipotle so much last year that they started giving me my meals for free a couple times a week lol.
Jeesus dude on what planet is that fat? Looking hyooge and shredz.
i want to be fat like you
Looking good man if you brought your traps up a bit though it would make a crazy diff, rear delts look pretty good and triceps look thick
Fack if that is small and fat i dunno what the hell i am but i want to be that small and fat. Isnt mexican food the best. I can only eat in when i am in Cali. Its authentic their I am spoiled. I like going to the places that are the size of a closet and they only speak spanish. I make some delicious mexican though to tide myself over in between trips their. (end hijck)
Looking pretty damn awesome. x2 on the traps.
Lol, thanks for the compliments guys. This is a good pose for me.
Aggar, spar, thanks guys for your input. Regarding traps, I think it?s the pose/lighting combo that makes them look nonexistent (they are completely in shadow, and spread), but traps are IMHO one of my thicker/stronger bodyparts, especially from the rear. Of course they could always be bigger though. 
Crazy arm workout was crazy. Stimmed up, fasted, but motivated. Good combo.
Quick warmup, I was already sweaty from the stims and the walk over, ready to kill it.
Cordova extensions / Cable OH extensions ? this was a nice combo; hit the lateral head, then pump up the long head
30 x 20 LR / 60 x 20
40 x 15 LR / 90 x 20
50 x 15 LR / 110 x 16
60 x 12 LR / 130 x 15
EZ bar low-incline skullcrushers ? pumping these out like a man possessed. During the middle of the 4th set, seemed like a good idea to start doing the meadows-style skullpress hybrid thing, lowering the bar very slowly to my mouth, then exploding up.
60 x 18, 18
80 x 14, 10? switch to 10 reps of the other style. Subsequent sets were doing them Meadows style.
90 x 15, 15, 15
V-bar pressdowns
100 x 15
130 x 15
150 (stack) x an easy 15 drop 110 x 12ish drop 70 x a lot
Standing one-armed DB curls ? aka sex in the gym
20 x 15 LR
25 x 15 LR
30 x 12 LR
40 x 8 LR
Cable 2 D-handle preachers . . . sorta mimics the 2 DB preachers
5 sets, last one quite heavy and a drop set.
DB hammers - i was doneski
40s x 10 LR
55s x 10 LR, 10 LR
2 quick sets lat pulldown OH curls to finish, then sat on the floor for awhile waiting for my heart rate to come back down.
Time to crush some work.
lean and mean. back thickness looking awesome. arms definitely seem to have an increasingly thick look from behind… unlike mine which still fail!
Back and tris are looking thick man. Going to be pretty damned impressive when you aren’t small and fat anymore lol.
I didn’t mean they looked small by any means but if they were even bigger you’d look freaky-er
I think you’d look 78% more swole if you got a tan. Just sayin’
‘omg bug you’re so big/swole/jacked/thick/huge/etc’ lol
ryanxcbg-wtfever sounds like a faggot.
i liked the part where hallowed posted.
keep it up man. party time soon
