Evan's Training

This log is an inspiration to me. Keep up the great work.

6.18.11

Cardio

30 minutes steady state elliptical
Car Push Intervals
5 pushes, 20 seconds all out, 2-3 minutes walk rest

Foam rolling + stretching

Finally I am able to get out and do car pushes and have a friend of mine who likes doing them. Love these. Theyll get much tougher as we increase the cardio.

God damn…that is all. lol.

Absolutely ridiculous working weights, Evan.
Keep killing it man, you’re a beast.

Jas and PB: thanks for the comments guys, appreciate the support.

Blaze: ya, I went into today’s session and felt like going for it…since my training partner was there, he pressured me to try 5 plates, so I did and it was a success lol.

Insane day tho, almost collapsed after the leg press Dropset.

Sweet! Cant wait to see em. Insane is right, hahaha.

I’d venture to say you had 1-2 more with 500 bro! Impressive work

You using wraps or sleeves there?

Thanks PB!

AJ, I use sleeves, love them. With three knee surgeries and no natural cartilage, gotta keep em’ warm somehow.

Ahhh, you got the inzer ones then. I was honestly just hoping you used wraps so I would feel better about my squat.

Thanks bro, appreciate the comments.

I have been dieting for my first bodybuilding show for 3 weeks now, and am currently 18 weeks out, sitting at 211 lb.


Here’s a pic I also just snapped…really need to bring out that quad separation!

I just use sleeves as well.

@ AJ: ya, that’s what I’ve been doing too…I’m thinking about ordering wraps though and giving them a try.
