Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Nice work, Huy. :tu

I did myself a favor putting off shoulders for a day as I got a really good shoulder workout in yesterday. Elbow and shoulder felt a lot better and I pushed pretty hard.

Just arms today, and Saturday I will take the day off the gym and go skate.

Where's Charlie, Rob, Greg and all? Let's hear about some smashin'. :D

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Wheels today.

Squats and more squats
Close stance leg press - reverse hack squats
Lying leg curls
Seated extensions

Felt a great pump. My quads were really vascular, maybe lack of water but it did look sick

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

ICD, same story. Endurance is improving, strength is not. Gotta come at some point, me thinks.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

IBD

Lots of supersets, hit everything at least 10+ reps. Awesome pump. At home now and my back is still "tingling."

Been incorporating zot curls and I love them, I love old school training.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Love supersets on back day, Huy. :tu

When I do bent over rows, I imagine lifting massive planets at the ends of the bar.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

I tried something new, someone was using the 100db so I grabbed the 100bb and used that to row.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Yeah, that balance can add something to the mix. Lats sore today?

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Always a little soreness. My damn legs are still sore and it's legs today too.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Always sore? I always hurt, but wish I was always sore. :r

Great back workout today, jumped all around the map with weights on barbell, dumbbell and t-bar rows to confuse the crap out of my back. Excellent pump still going 6 hours later. :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Very nice! Yeah, most of the time I'm somewhat sore. Chest is probably the least though.

Nice leg day. I can tell my quads are going to be sore.

Front squats (Platz squats -narrow stance, heels touching!)
Close stance leg press
Stiff leg deads BB
Leg extensions (4-5 second negatives)

Killer leg day.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Did you click those heels three times? :D

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Had a pretty full day of training.

Played some ball at lunch time - my form of cardio

Hit chest with Staci. My right elbow was just screaming the entire time, but managed to hit some decent weight

Incline DB press
Hammer strength press
Cable flies
Dips

Close grip bench and DB kick back for some tricep work. Didn't want to press too much.

Debating if I should take a rest day or not tomorrow (today).

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good stuff, Huy. :ze

I did shoulder and traps yesterday. Arms and stuff today, off day tomorrow.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good arm workout today, heavy on tris (skull crushers, cables), and moderate weight/ high reps/ high intensity on preacher curls, cable curls and dumbbell curls for bis.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

I miss doing heavy-ish skull crushers. Such a great tri dominate movement. My elbow just won't be nice when I do the movement. Nice work Tom

Quick heavy back day.

Wide grip pull down (couple negative sets)
T bar row (last set, 3 drop sets)
BB single row (did these again, my new go to)
V grip pull down - pull ups

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Nice back day, Huy. :tu

Off day for me. Getting back into a hockey game tonight for my first time since the crash.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Smashed legs yesterday. Haven't hit squats heavy like that in a while.

Back and biceps today. Strength was awesome. Kept everything pretty heavy and made sure to hit everything for at least 8+ reps. I'm still feeling jacked from my extreme dust, I could probably go back and hit the same workout AGAIN.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

EXTREME, Huy! :D

Back day yesterday, used rowing supersets for the first time in a while and just crushed it. And only used War Juice, imagine if I'd been Dusted. :r

Legs to day. Heading in soon.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good luck! Suppose to go car shopping but Im playing hardball with the dealership.

So... may head over to hit shoulders/chest

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Tore up some wheels, felt good so I added in shoulders, which went well too.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

One of those good days huh?

Truly ICD, just happens that chest fell on the real ICD.

Strength felt iffy but had a good pump and endurance was solid.

Flat bench - heavy working sets 4x5
Flat DB flies
Hammer strength incline press
Incline DB press
Dips

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Two days of pressing, so strength was all there but happy with the pump and endurance.

Standing single DB press
Behind neck OHP
BB upright row
KB side delt raise - front raise

Hit some biceps too

DB hammer
BB ez curls
Rope curls for negative reps

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good workout, Huy. :tu

I was off today, ICD in the A.M.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Push day today, flats bench, seated presses, incline, declines and cable pushdowns. Great pump on Dust Extreme and Vasky. Hockey game tonight, so I will take tomorrow off and come back with back on Tuesday. Hope to have Mesomorph by then to give that a whirl.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

I miss meso, i see it but I have too many toys right now to buy more.

I skipped legs today and joined all the cool kids with ICD.

Strength felt good, endurance was solid. Got in some good sets with 110 DBs, only highlight. Lots of reps and sets, didn't count. Went by feel.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Got the Meso today, never tried it before. I'll let you know how I like it, and send ya some if ya like. :D

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

I believe meso still has 1.3 dmaa

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

It does, that's why I picked some up.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Double today, shoulders and arms. Short but heavy. Skipped legs for today 'cause I had a hockey game later, then find out the game has been cancelled. Doh! Looks like wheels tomorrow before turkey dinner.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

I skipped legs... I almost skipped it again yesterday lol

Waiting for Mason to go down so I can hit some back

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Tear it up, Huy. I'll do legs for both of us tomorrow. ;)

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Happy turkey day.

Hit shoulders and arms this morning. Cigar smoking now before the feast begin

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Earned my turkey with some heavy leg presses, walking dumbbell lunges and hammies. ICD manana.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

That a boy!

I'm so damn tired. If I train, it'll be legs. IF

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Believe it or not, I did not eat yesterday. I usually intermittent fast for about 16-18 hours 5-6 days a week. Yesterday was still my planned intermittent day but a few events that got me so angry that I didn't even feel like eating. I made a shake that consisted of oats,protein and some berries. That's all I had.

Today was legs, I was able to tell that there was not enough fuel in my body. Hit all my target but it wasn't fun. Lesson learned. Just eat, no matter how upset or angry you are.

Fronts
BB lunges
DB stff legs
Leg extensions (5 sec negatives)
Seated leg curls (5 sec negative)

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Eat, Huy. Doesn't even need to be a D. :D

Great back workout today on straight Meso. Felt like I didn't wanna train, and the gym was packed. But one rack and the t-bar set=up were both open as 90% of the kids were benching. Did some solid supersets of heavy barbell rows and medium weight t-bars. Then did a couple sets of light barbell rows to pump it up. Then heavy on the t-bars for 4 more sets with big contraction at the top. Finished off with a few sets of superwide cable pulldowns.

Love it when I am unmotivated and end up having a really good lift. Gotta say that Meso is just as good as the Dust Extreme too.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Shoulders yesterday on War Juice, smoothest pressing session in a while.

Arms today on Dust and Vasky, tore those ******s up.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Nice!

Shoulders, abs and tris. Hit some single DB OHP with 75. Only highlight. Not too much tricep flair ups, so that's a plus.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good deal,Huy! :tu

ICD falls on a Wednesday this week, I'll only be competing with the guys who bench Mon-Wed-Fri. :lr

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Off day today ... deadlifts tomorrow

Been taking Redcon1 Total War and Big Noise lately ... rly liking them!

Good work everybody ��

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Hi Charlie! :D

ICD, typical for lately. Not real strong, endurance improving. Skipped all flat movements and went with inclines, declines and dips.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

You ever say okay to a workout and half way through, you know it wasn't the best idea and want to stop but don't want to look like a pus*y.

10x10 front squats @185 w/1 min rest

Lying leg curls (single leg)
Seated leg curls

To make up for my misery of squats, I treated myself to curls hahaha
Seated DB curls
BB reverse grip curls

You have no idea how shot my quads are right now.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Killin' it on the wheels, Huy! :tu :ze

Amazing row session on Meso and Insane Veinz today. Did 5 supersets on heavy T-bars and moderate barbell rows with only enough rest to move bar to bar. Then did 5 sets of heavy barbell rows to finish. Really was in a groove today, big contractions at the top.

At that point, I felt like any more rows or cable work just would be overkill, but still had some gas, so I did seated military presses, light (155) for 100+ reps. Earned myself a day off if I end up having a game tonight, or just an arm workout if it gets cancelled.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Awesome. The both of us had a good day of training. Taking today off as well. Just arrived in San Jose so it'll be an off day today.

Enjoyed a nice breakfast this morning. Had been so long since I splurged on good food. Had 2 short stack pancakes (3 each). Blueberry pancakes and whole wheat - gotta be sort of healthy right? Lol

Going to enjoy some Vietnamese food in a bit with my family.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Blueberry pancakes. :dr

Vietnamese food. :dr

My hockey game was cancelled tonight, do have a game tomorrow, so I'll head in and just do some guns tomorrow. :ze

Enjoy yourself in SJ, Brother. :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Tore up the bis today, and did pretty ok on the tris. Surprised how strong I felt on bis after heavy rowing yesterday. Earned a day off tomorrow, gonna head to my new favorite breakfast restaurant for a Southwestern egg white omelet and some flapjacks.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

ICD, had to work around a sore wrist I hurt with a big check Friday night in a hockey game. Did some different stuff and got a good pump. Hoping the wrist will be back to normal next time I hit chest, and hopefullly on biceps day next week too.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good work, brotha!

Had planned on training at least 3x while on this 4 day trip but that didn't go as planned. Ate great, whatever I felt like I would eat. Just got back home now, debating if I should go hit some chest... maybe I'll just rest another day. :)

Mini trip over, back on the grind.

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Did you train today, Huy?

Another superset workout for back today, raised the weights on both bent overs and T-bars and killed it. Finished up with some pullups and cable rows, back fried. Hoping I can bring the pain without bringing the pain tomorrow on shoulders. :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Adiftpanda and Icehog3 II
 

Decent shoulder work out. Not overly strong, and smooth and low pain comparitively. Did 10 sets of seated military, 4 sets of standing military and finished with shrugs. I'll take it.
