Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Get some Tom!
Back Squats 5x5 (working back toward my previous stall) Flat bench 5x5 Rower 2k Sprint 1x5 negative Pull-ups Spent another half hour stretching, beginning of this thread there was talk of foam rollers. Anyone using one still? Pre/post or whenever? I have a hard time justifying 50$ foam wrapped pvc pipe though, that's money I could spend on monster bands. |

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I may need a recovery day soon, Chris.
Did super short rests today....Bent over rows, T-bar rows, Pulldowns and pullups. Not very strong again, but got a good workout. Hoping the strength comes again within a week or so.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Good stuff Chris, Huy & Tom!
Back squats & shoulders today followed by a quick turn on the elliptical. Today was Day108 of SED and i'm thinking of backing it down to 4 days a week. I've reached a plateau and i think it's down to an overworked CNS, between squatting every day and DL'ing 4x/wk, benching 3x/wk and shoulder/back work plus the occasional cardio session. I'm still seeing PRs in my DLs and bench but on the whole i'm thinking that I might be able to make steadier progress across the board if i back my squats and deads down to 4x/wk and 2x/wk respectively. Thoughts? |

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I don't see how you could NOT be overworked at 108 days, Charlie, but I was here to encourage, and you my friend kicked some butt. I do think dialing it down would be wise though.
Shoulders today, they weren't strong but I did get in the groove nicely, and kept rest extra short again. Added some traps and tris in for good measure.

That's a long time charlie, no shame in your body needing to recover some.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I think I'll go ahead and go through Friday so it can be a nice, round 110 days. This was always a mental challenge for me and I feel like I've gotten a lot out of it mentally and it's time to move on and let my CNS recover so that I can lift heavier and have less worry about injury.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
And the wager is made! I'm sure I have something sort of comparable (maybe...not really)
Get some Charlie, all PR's for final Day? First time doing overhead squats, went light light. Overhead Squats 3x5 OHP 5x5 third set started feeling it in my back. May need to have a buddy come check my form Tomorrow will be heavy back squats Last edited by Sancho; 08-27-2015 at 07:24 PM. |
