Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 - Page 345

Adriftpanda · 08-11-2013, 12:18 PM

Been out of town for 2 weeks but felt like I train better when out of town. Started to split my leg days up. Hams and quads, feels better that way for me.

icehog3 · 08-11-2013, 03:03 PM

Easy day today, arms and abs.....hockey game later today.

Two more days of training and I get a 5 day break for Shack. Feeling good, but I know the time off will ultimately be a positive.

Adriftpanda · 08-13-2013, 07:57 PM

Switched things up this week. My partner wanted to do split days. We did upper on Monday and lower today, tomorrow is day off (HIIT), and back to split training. I feel alright, gonna stick with this for a couple weeks and see how it goes.

icehog3 · 08-13-2013, 10:08 PM

Trained my whole body over 2 days (Chest, shoulders and tris yesterday, legs, back, bis and abs today), and now I get a 5 day break for Shack. Hopefully the time off is a positive, I think it will be.

Adriftpanda · 08-14-2013, 01:26 PM

Have fun Mr.Murphy! Smoke a nice cigar for me.

Upper today

Adriftpanda · 08-19-2013, 10:35 PM

I decided to kill my deads today.

8x3-4 @350 deads

That was just the highlight of my session. We did back today but went heavy enough to hit 8-10 reps on everything else. Ahhhh feels so good to be back on this 1.3 DMA stuff.

icehog3 · 08-19-2013, 11:55 PM

Nice workout, Huy.

Back to the gym after a 6 day hiatus for Shack tomorrow. Looking forward to the thrill of the iron.

Adriftpanda · 08-20-2013, 05:01 PM

I think by doing split training last week, it almost gave me a break because we didn't fatigue the muscle as much as I thought. Today I had one of my sickest lifts.

Flat bench DB 5x6 115 db
Incline DB 5X5 100 DB
Iso pec deck 4x8 with a drop set

Finished off arms.

icehog3 · 08-20-2013, 06:02 PM

Another good one, Huy!

Busted out chest today, felt pretty strong, things went smooth after a week off.

mk05 · 08-21-2013, 01:09 AM

Tried to do some squats today...it was weird. I got this very sharp searing pain right in my crotch like it was cramping or pulling. Never had that before. I had to stop immediately. I must be getting old.

Adriftpanda · 08-21-2013, 03:31 AM

Doesn't sound pleasant, Marc. Good idea to stop.

Squat day tomorrow. Excited.

Ender · 08-21-2013, 08:29 AM

I was pretty depressed having to leave Shack. So, I may have had to skip chest day on monday. But yesterday I got back to it. Legs today. So not looking forward to lunges.

Sanitariumite · 08-21-2013, 10:35 AM

Chest/triceps today. Legs/Core day before yesterday.

Recovering from surgery is a slow process, but I'm already feeling progress. It feels good to regain strength, and see some definition coming back.

Adriftpanda · 08-21-2013, 04:37 PM

Legs today. Good training, kept it to only 3 exercise, well 4, seated calf raises to make myself feel better lol.

Squats (heavy as possible) 7x4/3
Leg presses 5x10
Lying leg curls 4x10 (partials at the end)
Seated calf raises just for chits and giggles.

icehog3 · 08-21-2013, 06:03 PM

Back Day, went crazy with a couple different types of T-bar rows, got a great pump. Added in some cable rows and finished off with close grip chinups.

mk05 · 08-22-2013, 01:53 AM

tried to do some deadlifts but the celtics cheerleaders were doing a group workout aka eliptical, so I ended up just doing cardio.

There's zero overlap, I swear

I wanna go to that gym...

08-22-2013, 06:05 AM

2.5 miles on the mill yesterday, followed by arms via dumbbells...

Today I think I might go outside my comfort / knowledge zone of dumbbells and try some machines...

Speaking of machines, seems there are a lot of different types in my gym that only vary ever so slightly... do you fellas typically do a circuit of all the machines or just the leg/arm machines that you prefer?

any literature you fellas can pass a long that might make me a little less ignorant?

Are you able use trainer or staff to help you at the gym? Problem with machines (or weight routines) is that we all gravitate to certain ones and leave out the ones that don't feel right or are not fun. You want to hit all the areas, but focus on larger muscle groups at first.

Adriftpanda · 08-22-2013, 01:05 PM

I perfer to train mainly with free weights but for certain exercises or for more of isolation movements, I'll go over to the machines.

As far as circuit training goes on the machine, my gym does have a "machine circuit training" station. Consist of some legs (seated curls,leg extensions), Chest (chest press), Back (pull downs). There might be some other but I just can't recall. And yes, I do see people using the circuit station training, but not often.

Start where you are comfortable, it wouldn't hurt trying it.
