Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3

[Ender]

I also had a strong chest day today. May have been the caffeine but felt good to go extra reps then increase weight next set.

...heck of a good workout in the garage this morning. Reached a milestone wherein I was able to strip off the smaller plates and slap on both 25lb plates to the EZ bar (11lbs) and add 5lbs to all routines except the bicep curls. Here's what it looks like now:

Standing reverse curls @60 x5/8reps new
Standing bicep curls @65 x5/8reps
Standing french press @75 x5/8reps new
Standing upright row @75 x5/8reps new
Standing press @75 x5/8reps new

I've come along way since getting my arse back out to the garage to workout on a regular basis. This is what it looked like on 02/14/13:

Standing reverse curls @35 x4/8reps
Standing bicep curls @35 x4/8reps
Standing french press @50 x4/8reps
Standing upright row @50 x4/8reps
Standing press was added on 03/23/13

On 03/13/13, the Assault pwo was added which has helped immensely with the pumps. The Assault Creatine and ReCon post wo followed on 05/01/13. Its all working out very well and the benchmark has now been set for myself. No looking back, only forwards to reaching a new mark in the next 30 days.

Pump it hard today...

I had a guy come up to me today and ask if I was ok, because I have lost weight.

[icehog3]

Glad you're feeling good and looking good, Jay.

Shoulder day today, and my shoulder feels raw. I will either feel better after the workout, or be crippled.

Back and shoulders for me tonight (I hope) missed my workout last night because I was stuck on a call, hit chest and arms on Monday and had a nice workout.

Awesome!


Last week when I put up 235 on bench 3 times, I had a guy come over and tell me that was a "real lotta weight for a tiny guy"...

Karma, Jay, shoulder feels better after a hard workout...even after cooling off.

Not much the doc can do, been to see him quite some time ago. Most days it's liveable.

[icehog3]

Good luck at the doc, Jay.

Last wo was on Sun 05/26 and took a couple of days off due to the inside area of the right elbow in and around the lower bicep and forearm was sore. Was gonna wo yesterday Tues 05/29, but the soreness was still there. Anyways, needed to push through this issue this morning in the garage:

Standing reverse curls x5/8reps
Standing bicep curls x5/8reps
Standing french press x5/8reps
Standing upright row x5/8reps
Standing press x5/8reps

Didn't think I was gonna make it through the rev curls and it took through the 3rd set in the bicep curls before the right arm felt loose and warmed-up. Nonetheless, wo completed and the right arm is stiff and sore Time to hit the hot shower...

Gotta do chest and triceps today. Feeling tired so I'll have to use anger from the Red Wings elimination as fuel.
