Went heavy since I knew I wouldn't have a lot of gas after legs/cardio yesterday. Did surprisingly well.

T-bar/Vertical bench x 3 supersets
High pulls/Precor inclines x 3 supersets
Rear delt flyes/Flyes x 3 supersets
Inclines x 2 sets & 1 drop set
Barbell rows x 2 sets & 1 drop set
Dips/Dead hangs x 3 sets

Need to take tomorrow off for a funeral and work, so I'll be back for shoulders etc on Friday.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Heavy shoulders today, super smooth and pretty strong.

Military press x 6 sets

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Good deal, Bob! :tu

Cardio today with some curls and skullcrushers thrown in for good measure.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Figured on splitting up back and chest this go-round. Walked into the gym planning to do a back superset workout. My chest cold had other ideas. Managed to get through rowing supersets, but body told me to finish with straight sets. And not a sh!tload of them. ;) :r

Barbell rows/T-bar rows x 4 supersets
Narrow grip pulldowns 3 sets & 1 drop set
Cable rows x 3 sets & 1 drop set
Rear delt flyes x 4 sets
Dead hangs

Don't feel any worse, hopefully this crud will be history soon.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Breathing compromised by this chest crud. Went in with the intent to superset, I was lucky just to get through a straight set workout.

Wide inclines x 5 sets
Vertical bench x 4 sets
Declines x 4 sets
Precor inclines x 3 sets
Dumbbell bench x 3 sets
Dips x 2 sets
Coughing fits :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

You did more than me. Been feeling off the last few days. Off the next week as I head up north.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Have fun and be safe, Bob. Hopefully you're at 100% soon. :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Chest cold has put a hurtin' on my workouts, not in a good way. Hope to be well enough to go back tomorrow.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Now that I’m back home, it’s time to get back into the groove.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Get in there, Bob! :tu

First workout in days. Almost turned around and went home half way to the gym (my breathing is still semi-compromised). Sucked it up, went in and had a decent workout. Skipped doing back today just to make sure it would go down without coughing spasms. Did chest which is much easier (breathing wise). No supersets either, maybe by the end of the week?

Wide inclines x 6 sets
Vertical bench x 3 sets
Decline bench x 3 sets (last set drop set)
Precor inclines 4 sets

That was it. Feel fine several hours later, so hope fully back will be doable tomorrow. :ze

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Did back today. Knew my breathing was still compromised so did cables first to prefatigued. Once I felt that urge to cough uncontrollably, I ended the workout. Hopefully by next back day I'll be breathing normally again.

Wide pulldowns x 6 sets
High pulls x 3 sets
T-bar rows x 5 sets
Cable rows x 3 sets

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Damn bicep tendon still limiting me. Just gonna do what I can.

Flat bench
Dips
Pushups/scapula shrugs
Seated flyes
Tri kick backs

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Good to get it tin, Bob. :tu

Breathing is still pretty limited, but did a volume day for shoulders, tris and abs.

Seated military
Rear delt flyes
Skullcrushers
Dead hangs
Abs


Skipped traps 'til my next back day, hoping breathing will be much improved by then.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Cardio and probably some abs today. Tomorrow off. Hopefully well enough by Saturday to superset back and chest. We shall see.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Legs. Been a while since last leg day. Trainer had me do a routine similar to what a friends been doing.

Squats, 3 warmup sets, 6x3@65%, 1 min rest between sets
Front squats, 6x5@75%, 30sec rest
Walking lunges, 6x5@65% per leg, 30sec rest
Hammie curls, 6x5@85%, 30sec rest
Hip adductors, 1x8@75%, 4x8@85% 30sec rest

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Good job, Bob! :tu

Hit hard cardio for 45 minutes, then added in some leg presses, extensions and hammie curls, as I missed my last leg workout with the crud.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Feeling any better? Surprisingly my legs don't hurt today. I'm sure tomorrow will be different. Always worse the 2nd day.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

I think I'm about 80%, Bob, thanks for asking. Hope to be even more improved after today off the gym.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 

Went ahead with some supersets today. Not a lot of sets, but a lot of reps and intensity. Crud is definitely subsiding, but not fast enough for my liking.

T-bar rows/Incline bench x 3 supersets
Narrow grip pulldowns/Vertical bench x 3 supersets
Rear delt flyes/Flyes x 2 supersets
Barbell rows/Decline bench x 2 supersets
