I Think I'm Going to Do It...

Training Training Logs
361

Chesticles- Have to say ive been getting kinda bored with chest these days, so i played around with some different movements today.

DB press- 20/40, 15/70, 15/100, 12/120, 6/140 (crapped out early here)

Db fly (wanted to keep the eccentric movement slow and the reps a bit higher. I tend to get a little should agitation when i go heavy with flys these days, especially since my delts are still wrecked)- 12/35, 12/40, 12/45, 10/50

Incline HS press- 12/2P, 12/4P, 12/6P, 8/8P Then i fully extended my arms and concentrated on the eccentric portion of the rep, and repeated this 3x. Wreckedzors

Floor Press (hadnt done these in a bit…)- 10/135, 8/185 (Shoulder started wigging out, so i ended it)

Cable Flies- 10/40, 10/50x2, 10/60, 8/70, 8/80

Eccentric Flies (Starting the rep at the top with hands touching)- 8/30x2, 8/40

Seated Calf raises- 15/2P, 15/3P, 15/4P, 15/5P, 12/6P

Standing calf raises- 15/405, 15/450, 15/495, 12/495+2P in my hands

Followed ofc by 30min of elliptical steady state work.

Things are looking better, cuts are coming in, muscles are rounding out. I actually noticed new stretchmarks appear on my chest after todays workout (was very pumptastic). I cant say that im satisfied though. Things arent good enough. There has to be more to do, something more I can do…But we cant lose ourselves in the act, we must keep our focus on the desired product. Its like a finger pointing away to the moon, we must not focus on the finger for we will miss all that heavenly glory. (name the movie thats derived from for bonus points)

Nah fuck that noise. I dont think id have the energy to do stairs after my workouts lol. I mean, i COULD do them, but seriously by the time im done with weights im already sopping wet, and i know itll be like the front row at sea world for people around me if i do stairs. plus, Anytime around my Leg workout, something like stairs would be a splinter in the eye. Na mean?

Hey man, dropped in to check on your progress and see how everything’s been going. Training looks solid dude, and like someone else said, that weight you’ve dropped has got to feel good. Keep truckin’. I look forward to seeing what your final results are.

Leg extensions- 15/100, 15/130, 15/160

and 30min of elliptical work. Looking at what i wrote down, it does not look like my average leg day. I REALLY pushed the weigh today. I dont know why, but i wanted to. And my legs are wrecked.

Id finish a set…Shake my head and grab 2 45s…with bodyparts failing, id shake my head, “No good,” id say, “Just not enough.” Id grab more 45s. I dug deep, reaching down, way down. But i cant say that im satisfied. I pushed to failure, but…but it feels like i stopped just short of striking oil, just short of drawing from the deepest strength any many can summon. What i am, what i achieved…is far from perfection. And its that knowledge that keeps me restless. I will evolve, or i will surely die trying…

Nah, i hate my work outfit cuz i look the same. I still have wide ass shoulders and a big chest. So regardless of the fact that im down 50lbs (at 215 atm), my shoulders have not lost (may have actually gained size) and my chest is still as big. I STILL just look like a big block lol
