Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II

Hope the back feels better tonight, Huy.

Congrats, Greg, and good to see you back here.

Back day today, heavy Barbell/T-bar supersets, followed by cable pulldowns (wide) and cable rows (narrow). Ended with some extreme stretching.

[Adriftpanda]

Good job Greg. Glad you're still training.

Back felt so much better today. 2 hours of foam rolling helped a lot.

Even went in today to hit shoulders and tris.

Nothing impressive, just moderate weight. Didn't want to push my back to the limits, so I settled for seated military press instead of standing OHP.

[icehog3]

How the hell do you foam roll for 2 hours?

Glad you're feeling better. I have shoulders tomorrow, maybe I better put on the foam.

[Adriftpanda]

It helped that I was watching a movie lol. I just laid on it half the time anyway. That counts right?

Took yesterday off. The weather (I know your weather is far worse) did not motivate me to leave the house.

Ended up napping with Mason for a couple hours. That's a win itself.

Hitting back today. No deads though, still don't want to aggravate the lower back.

[icehog3]

Hope it goes well, Huy.

Wheels for me, leaving shortly.

[Adriftpanda]

All the gains, brotha.

Back today. Trained on a 18 hour fast. The pump was real.

Ended up doing deads. Didn't go too heavy. Hit working sets at 315, no chalk or anything. Used double overhand grip, rather than over under grip.

Deadslifts
Seated row (v grip)
Pull ups
Seated machine row

Hit some biceps. Went heavy, felt like it was going to burst lol

[icehog3]

Nice, Huy, glad the back held up.

Two days off (yesterday and today) for the first time in a while, back at it tomorrow.

[Adriftpanda]

Sunday off from the gym but still hooped.

Had lots of cake

Chest yesterday - hit 2 plates for my working sets. Felt good, moved everything nice and easy.

Bench
Incline DB
Hammer incline
Weighted dips

Wheels today.

[icehog3]

Nice, Huy.

Chest for me today after a late hockey game last night.

[icehog3]

Good chest day, strong on the presses, lots of gas even after late night hockey. A good day.

Back tomorrow, already counting rows in my sleep.

[Adriftpanda]

Few good days in. Debating on taking tomorrow off.

Shoulders tomorrow, if I'm not too lazy.

[icehog3]

Back Wednesday, shoulders yesterday, arms today, wheels tomorrow. And then it all begins again.

Enjoy the day off, Huy, I am envious.

[Adriftpanda]

Nope, went in for shoulders.

Wheels today.

[Adriftpanda]

Quick wheels, followed by carne asada tator tots. They were execellenf!

Squats
Leg press
Stiff leg deads

Some abs. Strength was good, can't complain today.

[icehog3]

Wheels today as well.

Chest day is tomorrow, on a Monday. Gosh Dammit.

[Adriftpanda]

Fasted cardio today (my bball game)

Followed by some hippie acai bowls bc hey, that's what fancy OC people do on Sundays.

Eff me. I just want some eggs, bacon, and spam over rice.

[icehog3]

Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Bacon and Spam.

[Adriftpanda]

Chest just happen to fall on ICD... luckily I go at the perfect time, after lunch. Nice and empty.

flat bench - kept it simple 225 for working sets
flat db alternating presses
cable flies
weighted dips - probably my favorite

Did some triceps to cap it off. Had a good pump.

Going to send you some new samples, Tom.

[icehog3]

Thanks Huy.

I had to jumble the order I wanted to do my exercises in a bit, but was able to keep moving and got a great lift in.

Back day in about 15 minutes.

This is just like a Bill Withers' song, Huy....."Just the two of us, you and I".

[icehog3]

12 sets of free weight rows of different types, 4 sets of pulldowns, 3 sets of cable rows, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree.
