Lift With Intensity

Lookin forward to the killing tonight. Are you walking around like an old man due to the lower back soreness?

Starting like five finger death punch. Going to have to add a bunch of their songs to my ipod. Starting with this one. Thanks to you and CB, you’ve got me hooked.

N, no way! Not me!

Herc, yeah man, today was rough. I would bend down to pick something up and quickly turn it into a goblet squat to save myself from face planting into the deck. 5FDP is pretty solid lifting jams man, for sure.

Sheiko #37, week 2 day 3

Going into this, I was not looking forward to the pain, but soon welcomed it once I found my groove.

Your arms are looking pretty jacked in that squat vid my man… Noooooooooooice!

Sweet tats’ brah. Embrace the guido lifestyle homeslice!

guido?? LOL!!!

glad training is going well lately…ride it out fwiw!

Greg, thanks man, that’s a big compliment coming from you, Mr HugeArms McAbz

Phlegms, I need a few spray tan sessions before I look like a true guido. And my hair’s too light.

MiM, I dunno…wtf? And I plan to ride this wave all the way to the beach!

Surprisingly, I’m not completely thrashed and murdered feeling today, so that’s a plus. But there’s alway later this afternoon and tomorrow… Off day (scheduled) today, but I MIGHT hit some traps/delt/arms later. Might.

I once dated a guy who I had nicknamed “The Blonde Guido,” so they do exist…

What’s on the agenda for tomorrow? I’d say hit that upper body sesh tonight if you’re feeling good. Gotta capitalize on those days when you feel strong, meng. You can rest when you feel thoroughly smashed, no?

LOL, ok, well then they exist.

Today and tomorrow are techinically the “weekend off” lifting, since I started this cycle on a thursday rather than a monday. If I’m feeling up to it later, I’ll hit that session up. If not, I might just move Thursday’s session up to Wednesday? Or, I’ll just be a lazy ass and eat/rest for 2 days and continue to LWI Thursday with Week 3.

We shall see…

Well, I decided to lift a bit last night. Fueled by a belly full of pasta, I decided to get a little pump flowing.

Done.

Off today, starting week 3 tomorrow. I got a friend of mine to start Sheiko yesterday. He’s the guy that trained with me on Saturday to get some pointers on it. Well, his text last night was “That was brutal. I took 2 min breaks from first round of bench to squats, but by the time I got to second bench set I was dizzy and out of breath. Took a 10 minute break and resumed. Squatting after benching and benching again is just plain brutal”

Cue evil laughter

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Why do you hate your friend?

On the squat vid, hard to tell with the way the camera cut off, but it looks like your knees are shooting out over your toes. If that’s the case, stick your ass further back on the way down, like when you grind on gregon at the club.

He’s wanting to hit some certain numbers after plateuing (sp?) for a while, and I told him Sheiko will make it happen so he’s all over it.

I don’t think my knees are getting too far out front, but I’ll try to take a vid from the side next time for clarification. It’s hard to get good side vids in my tiny gym. And L.O.L. @ the mental cue for sitting back. I’ll DEFINITELY do that next time :wink:

Elmore, thanks brah!
