Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Years of practice, my forearms and wrist are strong. ;)

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Lots of weight on those wrists for front squats, Greg, probably limits most people more than the rest of the involved body parts.

Tore it up alternating back with chest today. Really strong the whole way through, though I cut the last alternations at 3 sets per body part.

T-bar rows - Incline bench
Barbell rows - Vertical bench
Cable rows - Decline bench

I have a game tonight, so I'll take tomorrow off, and hit the gym again Monday.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Huy is the wrist master. Most of the work was done while he was single. ;)

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Hahah true

Olympic lifts are so technical, if you don't practice them often, it's hard to get.
I hit legs twice a week and on the 2nd leg day, I do fronts.

Back day. Had less than an hour and that included my warm ups for deads

Deads 4x5
Chest supported rows 5x5 drop set 4 plates
Wide grip pull downs 5x8+

Hit a super set of bis: preacher curls - reverse grip curls

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Nice work, Huy. If Stacy goes out tonight you can get some wrist work in.

Shoulder day, strength was good and endurance was ok.

Hit military presses, barbell shrugs and rear delts. Saving it up for tomorrow for legs and maybe some guns.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Good pace on the elliptical for an hour. Some bench, dumbbell flys and some cable flys.

Don't know what's worse, nothing in the tank or having gas :pn

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Good gas is good, bad gas is baaaad. :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Good appendage day. Short and heavy on leg presses and curls.

Long and reppy on skullcrushers, barbell curls, cable pushdowns and preacher curls.

Games tonight, tomorrow and Friday, so done with legs for the week. :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

I had gas today, but don't care. My headphones were on, if I can't hear it, it doesn't count.

Bench day

Heavy flat bench 4x3 and then drop sets
Incline db press 4x6-8
Cable flies - presses

Finished up with some tris:

Tri set: single arm db extensions - ez bar push downs - reverse ez bar push downs

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

A bit on the elliptical for warm up. Did some shoulders and bicep work last night. Sucks that the trainer locked up all weights below 40lbs, said someone had been stealing weights from the gym. Oh well just time to adapt.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Good work, Men. :tu

So when do the light weights get unlocked, Greg? That sucks.

Off day for me, hockey last night and again tonight. Back in the gym manana.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Leg day.

Squats - working on low bar for the past 3-4 weeks. It's not easy

Squats 4x3
Pause squats 3x5 w/3 secs
Single leg presses - seated extensions 4x8-12

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Low bar?

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

It's typically used for pl. You place the bar lower, about 4-5 inches lower than a typical high bar position squat. So bc of the position you're leaning forward more than the standard upright as a normal squat.

Focuses more on hamstring and lower back but still target quads. Also low bar squat allows you to lift heavier (but I haven't been able to lol)

I don't think I've seen this technique outside the pl community. Not a pl but I just want to be well rounded and learn different techniques.

Mulas for everyone

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

I'm round :su

Did some back and tri work last night.

Wide grip pull downs
Close grip rows
Some backs machine

French press
Close grip bench
Rope pulls
Single arm tri both palm up and palm down

Wasn't paying attention on the pulls downs and somehow hit my lip with the bar. Didn't hurt but all I could think of for the rest of the night was Kevin Hearts bum bump :r:r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

:r Greg! Too funny.

Thanks, Huy, that's what I thought but wasn't 100%.

Only had 2 lines at hockey last night. so I decided to take an extra day off today. Back at it manana.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Nice to see you back and training Greg.

Taking tomorrow - Sunday off so I decided to hit a press - pull day.

Bb pendlay rows 4x5-6
Seated db military presses (haven't done these in awhile) 4x5

Close grip pull downs 3x10
Incline bb press 3x6-8

Seated rows - standing cable press 4x10-15

Finished up with some arms

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Looks like I need to be off tomorrow and Sunday too, so I am gonna hit chest / back as well. I take inspiration from your day, Huy. ;)

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Tore up the chest/back, kept weight medium and ramped up the intensity and reps.

Bent over rows - Bench press
T-bar rows - Incline bench
Cable rows - Vertical bench
Medium wide pulldowns

Probably have to take the weekend off like I said, so back at it Monday.

Lift once for me this weekend, Huy. ;)

Greg, you out again for a short?

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

No way, I'm eating this weekend. No training, just training my belly to expand for tacos
