Oh wow, that are some crazy stats. I have a question on why you use a rather loose form on barbell rows, are you trying to involve as much muscle groups as possible? I’m not suggesting you to clean up your form, just wanted to hear out why you do them that particular way. [/quote]

I do it because Im a ego lifter and I enjoy making progress despite the form.

I also think the added weight from doing rows, and the looser form which involves more lower back is good for my deadlift. And bcause Im not deadlifting right now, I can use the extra lower back work.

just wanted to have one of those workouts that I used to have whern I first started where I just beat up everything in one workout

paused incline bench, locked out all reps
135x2x10
225x5
295x7
295x6

standing no leg drive barbell presses
135x10
185x10
225x4

incline dumbell fly
25x10
45x10
70x2x10 easy

machine shoulder press
135x10
225x10

side lateral drop set of like 29 total reps with like my
1x???

Flexing in the mirror I realized if I wasnt so fat id have a decent physique, at least other than calves. Pretty jacked up upper body today.

I need to keep working on calves, rear delts, triceps/biceps, and upper chest. Once I bring those up Im one year long cut away from a bodybuilding show. that is if I find a way to brain wash my self into not caring if I lose strength/muscle.

Well duh! strength like that doesn’t just mix with the fat… a meganewb v-diet log could be epic.

Only problem is t do the V diet costs like a few hundred dollars to t-nations bank accoount.

I have always in the back of my mind wanted to do it tho…

Its witer now so im thinking about losing some weight (cardio is easy when its cold out :slight_smile:

But thats really just to improve my chinup more than it is for fat loss by its self.

Im gonna do the V diet at some point tho. Its to tempting not to.

Ya hes had that name forever and just now decided to post out of boredom it seems.

Id like to see what he has to say on allot of the bullshit on this site. But I doubt I could get him to waste his time on here.

He reads the forums all the time tho, I found this site because of him.

Today was back day but I wanted to switch things up

low rack pull
135x3
225x3
315x3
405x3
495x1
585x1
635x1
660x1

shrug
up to 855x2, would have done more but the bar kept hitting the rack at the bottom of the of the shrug. Either way they were good reps. well i got them up pretty high anyway.

rows
8x10 light rows

rear delty flys
4x?

calf raises
?x?

Im pretty happy with that low rack pull, when i had 700x4 dead I did rack pulls from that exact height and wasnt to far off from 660 if I remember right.

Gonna go try and find the reps/weight in my log.

605x2 PR form felt off, they were probably high, all though they would have passed in some federations. But on a better day I could get 3 to solid depth.

Im not saying they were high, but they could have easily been lower.

Rack pull, same height as last time when I hit 585x6
315x3
405x3
495x2
558x1 straps
635x5 PR! straps
