Nasty, Freaky, Ugly Size

Todays session was high rep legs to failure

Safety Bar squat - 315*25, 23, 20
Close stance squat machine - 140kg*20, 19
Sissy Squat - 2 sets to failure
Adductor - 110*24, 22
Abductor - 110*25, 23
Calf press - 300*20, 20, 18, 17
Hanging knee raise - 5*15
Cable curl - 80*15, 15, 13, 11

Back on the grass fed beef kick. Since I'm eating more red meat and, meat in general, the digestion aspect it provides is a big plus.

Oh, and I got a burger pattie press thing [emoji6]

Upper loading

Oh boy.... Tier 3 is gonna be brutal lol.

One arm Bb row - 185(+5lbs)*12,9,8,7
Hammer dip - 370(+10lbs)*10,8 360*8,7
Reverse Pec Deck - 70kg*30, 22 50kg*20,17

That's it. Feel like a truck hit me. Getting up for the third and fourth set of rows and dips was tough. Could be from the lack of sleep since work has been extremely busy and no end in sight. Could be from having my eyes almost pop out of my head during each set. Or both lol.

Very impressive numbers on the one arm BB row - I've never even tried that.

They torch my back better then anything.

The landmine in my gym is by a leg press so, I put my off hand on the leg press to keep my body locked in. If not, I have the habit of rocking with the weight and using my lower back a bunch. Staying locked in like this let's me get a huge stretch in the lat and force my chest to the ground, instead of back, when I'm contracting. Makes a huge difference.

That stretch is what most people forget and wonder why there- backs are narrow

Yes! I think that's a big reason pullups work so well for some guys.

Calf press - 8*20, 18, 17, 16, 15
Upper pump

Update sent over this morning. Weight is back over 250. This last week was very inconsistent with meals and sleep from work. Swinging from days to night and back and forth made me have some really short days so, I was eating every 2 hours until I had to fall asleep or I just passed out. On days where this is the case I'll be adding in fats from almonds to make up the calories best I can.

Back to it..... 265 is gonna be tougher then I thought [emoji1787]

Upper muscle rounds

Plate loaded Pulldown - 250*28(+20lbs,+5 reps) 270*23
Preacher shrug - 5 plates *29, 23
Dip Machine - 320*25(+2reps), 320*22
DB Incline hex press - 40's*22
Reverse shoulder press - 65kg*27, 23, 22
V bar press down - stack *22

All the Incline benches were taken so I subbed the shrug variation in for DB Rows on an Incline bench. Same muscle groups I intend to focus on were hit just didn't get the extra lat activation.
Good session. Working. Trying to bring that rear shot up!

You are correct....to get the most out of wide trip chins it is necessary to go all the way down and feel the stretch...

Some new section I get to see? Lol

 

[squatster]

Do you log every work out in your book?

 

[montego]

Do you log every work out in your book?

Absolutely. Every training session I've had over the last two years is in a log book.

Lower muscle rounds

Leg press high close feet - 14*26, 23
Cable Sldl (one leg,foot on a board to get a bigger stretch) - 50*26, 22
Split squat - 45*24, 22
Calf press - 240*24, 23, 22, 22
Bb curl - 85*26, 23

The stiff leg set up was humbling. My legs have been pretty tight the last few weeks so I really wanted to get a good stretch here. Sets stopped when I thought my hamstring was about to tear not from exhaustion lol.

Awesome pump today too. Quads looked like they had been pumped full of air.

Fucking shoulder didn't like the Incline Bb... So frustrating!

Chest supported t bar - 5 plates*9(+2), 7, 4plates *9

Trap bar deadlift - 405*15(weights fell off)

Incline Bb - 275*4(fucking wobbly and hurt so I cut it short) 225*8,7,6

Cable fly - 100*15

Reverse hammer shoulder press - 235*9, 7

Cable lateral - 30*15, 14,12

Really annoyed with the Incline. Shoulder has felt pretty good but it wasn't having it today. As soon as I untracked the bar I could tell it wasn't going to go well. Reps were going along fine despite the pain and wobbles but I cut it short and opted to go a bit lighter. Next rotation.....

Big weight jump this week. 258.0 so up 7 lbs in only a few days. I was short on time between last meal and weigh in though and have went poo four times already so, it's not accurate.

Happy my legs have grown over the last year and a half or so despite the injury setback.

 

[montego]

Consistently consistent.
