Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II

[icehog3]

Kick some butt, Bob! :box:

Where is Huy??

Did legs yesterday. Underestimated how much cycling 3 days before and again the day before, for 60 minutes +, would affect my endurance. It wasn't pretty, so I just went heavy and got out.

Leg Press x 5 sets
Hammie curls x 4 sets
Quad extensions x 4 sets

Yup. That was it.

[Chainsaw13]

Hit up legs today as well. Had to temper it so as not to aggravate my back. So I went heavy.

Leg press, new pr of 800 for 4 reps.
Weighted walking lunges
Hamstring curls
Hip adductors
Calf raises
Cardio

Tried some Bulgarian split squats but the back wasn’t cooperating.

That's what I'm talkin' about!

ICF yesterday. Hit the presses from the 4 different angles, and then finished off with some vertical bench and flyes supersets.

Need to work around my work schedule next week to get it all in, so I am just going to go in and hit cardio and core today, then back tomorrow.

Whaddaya think Huy is doin', Bob?

Witness protection?

Back day!

Cardio

[icehog3]

Could be...

64 minutes of cardio and another 30 of core. Back manana. Good lift, Bob.

[Chainsaw13]

It as until I pulled something. Big time pain behind my left shoulder. Ugh one step forward, two back. Thought the massage I got today worked that out, but nope. Oh well, I’ll live.

64 minutes of cardio? Nice job. I can’t ever get myself to do over 45.

Hope the massage did the trick for good. Freaking injuries, I hate 'em.

I need to find another way to ramp up the intensity of my cardio without adding more "resistance"....don't want the cardio to be muscle building or too fatiguing, just want the cardio vascular workout....I do plenty of lifting for the former.

OK, time for back!

[Chainsaw13]

The massage helped some other things but not this new pain. Ibuprofen helps some.

Just cardio today. 4 miles in all,3.1 running. Longest distance I’ve done in a long while.

[icehog3]

Hope the new pain ain't long term, Bob. Nice work on the cardio.

Threw some shoulders in with back again. All in all, a really solid workout.

Barbell rows
T-bar rows
Wide pulldowns
Dumbbell rows
Seated military press
Rear delt flyes
Dead hangs

Arms, traps, and some cardio and core tomorrow.

Huy is closing on a new house, so I give him a full pass. Now, going forward....

[icehog3]

Arms and abs today. Skipped cardio because I've got legs tomorrow, and didn't have a great leg day last time after hard cardio the day before.

Cambered bar curls x 4 sets
Zottman curls x 3 sets
Olympic bar curls x 3 sets
Preacher curls x 3 sets
Cable pushdowns x 4 sets
Skullcrushers x 3 sets
Close grip bench x 3 sets

[Chainsaw13]

Nice one Tom.

Saw the chiropractor today out my back. As I thought, something with a disc in my neck causing it. Got adjusted and been icing it which has helped. Told me to lay off upper body for a while. So legs it is.

[icehog3]

You should have Tom Platz legs by the time your doc tells you to go back to upper body work, Bob!

Leg day for me too....wish me strength.

[icehog3]

Crushed it. Best leg workout since I started training again after the injuries.

Front squats x 8 sets (heavy)
Leg press x 5 sets (heavy)
Quad extensions x 4 sets
One legged standing hammie curls x 2 sets
Prone hammie curls x 3 sets

Working all day tomorrow so I will take the day off of everything. Back for ICT after that.

[icehog3]

Chest Thursday, pressing from all angles and flyes. Lots of volume and a good pump.

Back Friday, started with heavy T-bars, Olympic bar rows for volume, some cables, and then back for a couple T-bar / Barbell row supersets to crush it off.

Shoulders and arms today, legs tomorrow, then off Monday.

Bob, hope the back starts getting better soon.

[Chainsaw13]

Me too Admiral. Me too.

[icehog3]

I'm crippled.

Front squats (heavy) x 8 sets
Icarian leg press x 3 sets
Freemotion squats x 3 sets
Cardio (Precor bike) x 40 minutes

I don't know how I am gonna teach PE all day tomorrow. I think I best start drinking heavily now.

[Adriftpanda]

Okay. This last couple weeks hasn’t been easy but I still managed to train when I could.

Back to schedule.

Only had about 45-50 min.

Hoping to hit legs tomorrow. Good job guys, thanks for picking up my slack.

[icehog3]

Good to have you back in our CA gym, Huy.

Put off cardio until tomorrow as my legs are still sore as **** after Sunday's workout.

[Chainsaw13]

Got back in to do some cardio. Just 45 mins on the treadmill. Better than nothing.
