I don’t hate training arms, but my elbow does 
Theres only a few moves of each part(tris/bis) that don’t irritate things.
Embrace it!!
I remember doing an experiment and cutting out dairy for two weeks and then wheat. Wheat I was gassy and dairy made other things happen :sadface:
But get rid of my curds n whey?!!
nice bench PR’s Owlie!
and I eat a slice or 2 of bread a week after workouts. Nothing to get my panties in a bunch.
My I suggest you embrace your inner sistard instead? 
another woot owl shirt today. http://shirt.woot.com/
nlmain, you are right, sistard it is.
deja, love, love, love this owl, it looks ferocious!
MIM, I have not had any chronic elbow problems yet. Sometimes when my tris are really pumped/swollen my elbow will twinge a bit if I go for an extra set kinda like telling me “no don’t take it there…”

strong bridges Owlie
how were those bb bridges and thrusts…look like some good work, but I haven’t gotten the nerve to do them in the gym yet.
i just tried those for the first time too–the bridges and thrust–total porno in the gym moves.
I’ve only done them with 95# though. how do you like me? do you feel like they are worth it??
I was tentative to do them as well, but once I got some weight on them, I didn’t really didn’t feel so silly. It was nice because I could use lots of weight for reps since the ROM is so short. I felt they were effective and will help with glute activation and explosivity (is this a word?) if I continue to do them. My hamstrings are still sore from doing them Monday and I didn’t even squat heavy. I think I may be coming down with a touch of the flu or something though so that may be the cause of the soreness.
Those are some strong bridges and thrusts!!
I still haven’t tried them - seriously, my hamstrings cramp-up when I just do hip thrusts with BW, so i’m clearly not ready…
Lol! I do GMs for stretch too! Its a multi-purpose exercise…
Great work as always!
sorry you’re feelin flu icky… but i hope you get it out of the way before Halloween comes!!
i’ll give those thrustin thing another shot,word
Still not feeling 100%…
Was supposed to deload deadlifts today, but got carried away and just ended up doing some really shitty sub maximal singles…ugh, never again!
Chin ups:

Deadlifts
135x5
185x5

My head aches and my face is all red and I feel hot. Took my temp multiple times and it was normal though. Its like my body wants to get sick but I refuse to let it…ugh TGIF, let me sleep on it…
I am so impressed with all those chin-ups.
Get some sleep! Get better!
Take your vitamins!
