What a day. Started at 230 in the morning, when my eyes opened, brain turned on, and both would not shut off. From there, went on a short run at a snail’s pace (didn’t want to leave the trainee), and spent the rest of the day fighting sleep. I lost around 2 this afternoon, as I was sitting in my chair, unconscious. Nice lil line of drool making its way down my chin to my lap. Not a good look at all.

It was around 3 when I came to. One Monster, a fat-burner, and a bottle of water later, I was motivated to take care of the days work, then get to the gym. Fast-forward to the gym, and my new favorite person was present. I couldn’t help but laugh as they were undoubtedly there to work their chests, as well. And yes, this would be the same person who felt I was getting too big. The looks on his and his partner’s faces were priceless, as I started my session.

16 March 2011
Morning

1.6 mile run

Abs/Lower back

Evening

Bench Press
315 x 10
335 x 40

Dips
BW x 45

I was smoked pretty good at this point. The two individuals left, shaking their heads on the way out. Fuck you and your partial-reps!!

Here’s to hoping I can sleep thru the night tonight. Pic is relevant. :stuck_out_tongue:

I get a good laugh out of it. From the moment they stepped into the gym, I couldn’t help but get a shit-eatin grin on my face.

As do I, Main.

Mmm…yesterday was pretty “off.” Overslept, then dealt with a bit of a clusterfuck all morning, then when it came time for work in the evening, I found that my body required a bit of rest. I deadlifted 405 extremely easily, however, I just did not have the drive, intensity, focus, energy to do as I wanted. So, erring on the side of caution, I cleaned up, then left. Probably a good decision, as my shoulders and chest are still smoked, then there the issue of DOMS in my legs. Had to chuckle at that one.

So today, I was actually happy my trainees did not show up, as I seriously did not feel up to the 10 hill sprints I had scheduled. With the unplanned free time, I just worked on a series of neck/back bridges, some ab work, lots of stretching, squatting, then some light work on the heavybag. Depending upon how I feel this afternoon, I will probably do the deadlifts then. I’m looking forward to this. For some reason, I’m hoping two specific dudes are present when I begin. One being Rico Suave…I just genuinely don’t like him and he provides some decent motivation; and the other one calls himself “Muscle Gains.” I shit you not. He looks the part until he takes his pants off. Huge, and I mean that to the fullest extent, upper body resting upon a laughably small lower body. The only leg-work he does are bodyweight calf-raises between his sets of triceps pushdowns. It’s so said that even a small, average-looking LT began clowning this dude. “Gains” admitted that he needed to put work in on his legs, and I told him he needs to get under the bar and squat. This was back in January. He’s yet to do so, however, he saw fit to enter the gym one night just to see “who’s in here making some gains!” Yes. His words, not mine. He instantly stole the “Negro PLEASE!” award from the sergeant major who commented about my size.

For now, it’s time to actually do some work. Gotta be just a little productive today. Until tonight, all.

247

Today was kind of an okay day. Pretty chill throughout. Didn’t deal much with the boss, as he was out on a “mission”, then just disappeared for the rest of the day. I was pretty content with laying low in my tent, knocking out some little things and fucking off. About the only thing worthy of mentioning is a proposed plan to hold a PL competition. I laughed at this because judging how a retardedly vast majority of the guys here “lift”, it’d be nothing but a partial-rep-fest.

Then, those that would actually do a full ROM rep, would only be able to compete in the bench press, as barely anyone squats or performs DLs. I offered to assist on the condition that we go full ROM. I probably won’t compete simply because I wouldn’t lose. That alone would keep others from competing. Sounds egotistical, but it’s the simple and plain truth. Besides…I think I would enjoy being a dick and making everyone do the shit RIGHT!

In the meantime, here is tonight’s work that I will pay for this weekend.

18 March 2011
Evening

Deadlifts
315 x 3 x 2 (Warmup)
405 x 19 (shorted myself on the first set)
425 x 1 (Had to make up for it, as well as make an even 20 reps.)

I was pretty smoked after these, but, I didn’t want to end it on that note. Wanted to punish myself a bit more for not doing more with the DLs.

Barbell Row
135 x 20 x 5

That did the trick. At this point, I could REALLY use my fave masseuse to walk on my back! I started to do some pullups, but my forearms and biceps rebelled…furiously. I stopped.

For now, it’s time to do some more writing.

248

so your actually stationed in Germany, then? How do you like it over there?

(enter Bre saying, " It will be better now that I plan on doing bad things to him.")

249

Hey Beast! I had to laugh at your description of Mr. Muscles with his overdeveloped upper body and no legs. Why do so many guys do that?

So glad you aren’t in that camp. Develop the WHOLE THING! I put some progress pics up tonight.

250

Nothing like a surprisingly good reminder to really get the blood flowing hard enough to send you running to the gym. Yes, with a gratuitous amount of energy, I was more than ready for what lay in store.

19 March 2011
Evening

Push Press
135 x 5 x 2 (Warmup)
205 x 4 x 3
225 x 4 x 6

Behind-the-Neck Press (done slowly)
135 x 10 x 3

Lateral Raises
30 x 10 x 3

One-Armed Farmer’s Walk (Veggie-tales sold me on them)
100 x 40m
125 x 40m
These took care of any remaining bits of energy I thought I had.

Now that this is out of the way, some replies are due.

MiM- Yep, I’m stationed in Germany, and I am really looking forward to returning. For me, it’s not as “frantic” as it is in the states. And it’s pretty there. And I’m going to have lots of good and bad things done to me, and I’m going to do lots of good and bad things to Bre. Figured I’d save her the trouble! :stuck_out_tongue:

Puff- Yeah, we have many reverse-pyramids walking about. It’s sad when you can NAME on one hand the people who work their entire bodies. Of course, this led to an argument regarding whether or not squats and the leg press do the exact same thing and are equal to each other. Low threshold for ignorance.

251

You look fucking AWESOME! I CANT WAIT TO SEE YOU!!!

Trust me…the feeling is most definitely mutual.

253

What’s the distance - and you know us Americans don’t use the metric system so don’t give it to me in kilometers - between Beast’s German location and Fook?

Like the Farmer’s Walks a lot. Haven’t tried it single arm - yet.

Puff, I LMAO at every one of your posts, I just dont comment on all of them because I dont want you to think I’m stalking you. hahaha. I think it’s about 350km/220mi; between 2 and 4 hours driving depending on road construction and engine capability.

I will make it in 2:45. It would be tragic should Fook or anyone else find themselves in my path. Like…CNN or Sky News tragic.

Puff, the single arm FWs SUCK!!! I’ll keep them in my bag from here on out. :wink:

This is an edit: My training tonight was cut short, as myself and another dude got to talking about the UFC fights, and fighting in general. Two hours later, I had to book it out of there to get food. So, I’ll call tonight a “light” session.

20 March 2011
Evening

Squats
135 x 6 x 2 (Warmup)
225 x 10 x 3
255 x 10 x 1
315 x 5 x 1
Bumping of gums x 2 hours
Sprint from gym to chow hall (100m) x 1

Tomorrow is a running morning. Let the fun begin!

Just caught up. Happy (belated) birthday!

LMAO about Muscle Gains and the prospect of a PL comp there. I have never understood why some men don’t think that leg training is important. Hello, those are some of the most important muscles when it comes to pleasing a woman. Biceps curls will do what?

I’m reading with great interest as your deployment wanes. Can’t imagine how it must feel.

Keep up all the good work.
