Just got done with my first week. Man... haven't felt this good in a very long time. Although my legs feel like jello, it's well worth it.

Keep it up, Huy.:tu

Was able to train my bi's heavy and hard today with no pain, so thank you to Moses for recommending the WOBENZYM N, and to the makes of the Cho Pat brace, looks like I am out of the woods (knocks on wood).

Glad to hear it, Son. :tu

Today is my day off in the new DC regimen, and I am fighting the urge to go train. If nothing else, the new routine has me jacked up mentally. Feels like it's getting results physically, too.

First "repeated" workout today since starting the DogCrap program, and I was able to beat my previous workout, which is the goal. Added 15 pounds to incline bench and got the same amount of reps in the supersets to failure. I know eventually it will have to plateau, but right now it is motivating, fun, and providing good results.

Another success on a repeat. 10 pounds more on seated military press today and got the reps. Really having fun with the DC right now.

Hit my DG goal on bench press today, but it was tough. I will need more energy next BP day (2 weeks for flats) to make the next one.

Feeling great!

Tom, you take any pre-work out stuff? I started taking Jacked 3D and it has really helped me focus.

I do, Huy, I mix it up to keep from getting "used to" any one. My current rotation includes:

Jack3d
Hemo-Rage Ultra
White Flood

I have also had good luck with 1MR.

My buddy gave me a sample packet to try. White flood is disgusting.

It ain't about flavor, my Brother, it's about results. ;)

Did you have the lemonade? It is very strong tasting. The fruit punch is much more palatable.

Yes, it was lemonade! Yuck.

I know that different supplements work differently (or don't work) on different people. White Flood has definitely been one of my most effective pre-workout supps, Huy. If you get a chance to sample the fruit punch, you may be ok with that.

While I love that I found a great tasting, high quality whey protein (ON Gold Standard Rocky Road), in general I don't decide on what supplements to use based on taste, but based on results.

Yep I totally agree, Pops :tu
Although if I find 2 supplements that work the same for me, taste wins every time.

Leaning out right now. I've found that different foods at different times really makes a difference in fat loss.

Lean summer Christos coming, we can rock the sleevelesses at Shack. :r

Good back workout today, hit my goals+ on my DC stuff (T-Bar), added some volume work, and was so gassed I could barely grip the bar for my stretching.

Steak and eggs after the workout, thinking some salmon here in a bit.

starting doing supersets this week...

today was curls with triceps overhead extensions.
dumbbell bench press with bent over dumbbell rows
squats into shoulder press...
goblet squats. (you hold a dumbbell like an oversized goblet and squat)


then while waiting for the woman
upright row into shoulder press
reverse curls into triceps extensions

trying to keep the heart rate high to burn more fat. Any suggestions/tips on super sets would be appreciated.

icehog3 02-04-2012 02:21 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 
I dig those supersets, Bao, I was doing a lot of them before I started the DC program, and I will go back to them again.

For a variation, try doing supersets 1 workout for the same, rather than opposing, bodyparts.

i.e., Pulls up to failure immediately followed by bent over rows (adjust the weight for fatigue).

Incline dumbbell bench straight into dips.

Etc....

I like the sets you are doing, I just change them up sometimes (to two exercises for the same bodypart) to keep mind and body fresh. :)
