Yeah, different things seem to work for different people, Jim....I went through some of my old stuff, and found I already tried the Shock Therapy....it didn't do squat for me.

So far, White Flood, NO Explode and Na No Vapor ( with very limited use so far) seem to work best for me.

Good chest day for me.

Moved up 10lbs on my 5x5 (145lbs now). Did 3 sets of inclines for the first time since my injury (2 x 10 @95, 2 x 8 @105). Did DIPS (185x10, 200x5, 185x5, 185x6, 185x6 ... something like that).

Then I killed my triceps doing some standards (skull crushers, overhead rope extenstions, rope press-downs) and new ones (I don't even know what they're called

).

No cardio today ... I felt like just lifting. Probably go in tonight and play RB with Dr.MS.

I don't know that anyone would risk taping the Admiral on the sly like that.

Ever fell like you left something at the gym?
Like you didn't get it all?
Worked my azz off.
A gazillon reps, some sets to failure, good weight (for me), short rest between sets, etc.
Spent an hour-ana-half toiling with the iron.
Should have been whipped.
Maybe I need to go back after dinner.

The Professor · 03-17-2009, 08:00 AM

Back from a "back day" at the gym.

warmup: rope crunches, high rep/light weight t-bar rows (1pie x 30, 2pie x 10)
close-grip t-bar: 10, 9, 10 @ 3pie
hammer strength plate-load pulldown: 2 x 8 @ 250lbs
bent-over barbell rows: 1 x 10 @ 135lbs; 2 x 6 @ 200lbs
dumbbell rows: 3 x 10 @ 100lbs
shrugs: 135 x 10, 225 x 10
reverse shrugs: 135 x 5 (my ass is too big and I was drained)

I thought about doing some deadlifts to finish things off; but I was just wasted by the end. Maybe I shouldn't have done all of this on the day I'm planning to do a ton of yard work.

I love days like that.

Lift as often and as heavy as you can?

Seriously though, I came into lifting later than most, and with the initial aim of losing weight rather than gaining mass or strength. The best thing you can do for yourself is go, consistently.

I'd recommend Starting Strength, by Mark Rippetoe and Lon Kilgore. Great basic workout program, intended for novices. That is, if you don't know what you are doing.

Give him some too...

Seanohue what works best for me may not work best for you but I hit the weights 3x a week

1-day Chest, biceps, triceps
1-day Legs and Calves
1-day shoulders and back

but I'm sure some of the monsters on this thread will chime in soon with their better advice.
