Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II

[icehog3]

Gonna take today off too, feel crappy (cold), overtrained, and crappy (beer).

I'm still waiting to train vicariously.....wassup, Fellas?

[Adriftpanda]

What a weekend... ate like ****, drank like I was 21 again

I needed to burn a few of those off, so hit legs hard today

Squats
Leg extension - bulagarin split squats
Single leg presses

Hope your cold gets better brotha

[icehog3]

It's gone, Huy, played hockey last night, felt great this AM.

Two days off the gym was just what the doctor ordered, high volume chest day, got lots done and a wicked pump.

Incline bench
Vertical bench (plate loaded)
Flyes
Decline bench
Dips

[Adriftpanda]

Good stuff, sometimes taking 2-3 days off is what is needed.

A little quickie today, couldn't do much as the racks were being used. I'll catch up on legs another day.
30 min on elliptical
dumbbell press hit 90's for sets again, that felt really good. On the flip side it felt like my hernia was going to pop out.
dumbbell incline
Flat and incline flys
Dumbbell pullovers

On an old man note I got a friendly call out by one of the kids.

He was trying to bench 275, said if he could do it I should give him a job.
The little guy between my legs said pssshh show him up, you used to set that.
The old man between my ears said you're gonna hurt yourself.
The old man won
To the kids credit he got it up. But I kind of feel bad, the kid was arching and was rolling to one side, could have hurt himself I'm surprised coach didn't stop him or told the spotter to pull it off him.

And it's hella humid in the gym today.

[icehog3]

Smart move, Greg....and sounds like the kid would have got the red light in a competition.

Back day today, and I'm fairly tired this morning after second night of hockey in a row. Oh well, adapt and overcome, right?

[icehog3]

Pre-fatigued with wide grip pulldowns, 180, 200, 220, 220, 240, 220

Barbell rows 225, 265, 265, 225
Cable rows 240 x 4 sets

Figured better to go pre-fag and hi reps than to try to go too heavy when I was half gassed. Actually got another great workout.

[Adriftpanda]

You said pre-fag Hehehe

Press day with some flies

Ohp
Flat bench
Incline db press - db side felt raise
Seated fly machine - side felt machine

Smart man to wait for Tuesday for pressin'.....

[icehog3]

Shoulders today. Kept the reps high, but tried to up the weights. Short and simple...

Seated military press
Barbell shrugs
Dumbbell shrugs

Arms and legs tomorrow, time to get some Wheaties.....

[bonjing]

Back and tri's tonight. I had nothing in the tank, tried heavy weights but couldn't push out complete sets.

[icehog3]

We need some HGH, Greg!

[Adriftpanda]

I need some rhino oil

Back yesterday.

Deads
Single arm seated row - pull ups
Pull downs

Some aaams

Someone asked me what crossfit gym I go to... he was ignored

[icehog3]

Rhino Oil? Can't get a boner?

[Adriftpanda]

Easy, old man.

Legs today. Decent.

Fronts
Hack squats
Lying leg curls

Finished with some rear delts

[Adriftpanda]

TGIF. I need a cigar

Decent chest day, strength was iffy but felt everything

Flat bench
Plate loaded chest press
Seated cable flies - cable press - Held a nice contraction 10-15 seconds after my set

Finished with a super set of arms

Seated db curls - over db single arm extensions
Over head rope extensions - bb curls

[icehog3]

The "old man" took a day off. BTW, I have no need for rhino oil, young man.

Was supposed to be chest tomorrow and back Sunday, but looks like I am gonna be hung up Sunday so looks like the supersets may come back tomorrow.

[bonjing]

Quickie gym last night. 4 sets complexes, and some neck work out; I always feel awkward when I do the neck. Notice that my wrists are pretty weak when doing front squats.

[Adriftpanda]

Years of practice, my forearms and wrist are strong.

[icehog3]

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.
