You know you're working hard at the gym when you have to say fuck out loud many many times. Sweating too and I freaking love it!

Seems like everywhere this weather is happening. We might get it bad today. That cold front is gonna hit us tonight. Been 90s all week. Tomorrow when I wake for work will be 40s
Haircut now. And counting down hours to kill my arms tonight.
Day spent with my boy though. Should be a good one. Enjoy everyone. Stay safe

Back actually feels fairly decent. Thanks! Took another half of a Flexeril about an hour ago and getting ready to eat and crash. Want to wake up feeling fine and ready to punish my legs some!
We do get occasional earthquakes. If I recall correctly the Oconee nuclear plant a little ways up the road is built right at/on a old fault line.
We had a fairly small quake a within the last year or two. It was wild because I was sitting in my recliner and the beast was laying on the floor beside my chair. All of the sudden he jumped up and started growling and whining. Just a few seconds later there was quick rumble and it felt like recliner dropped out from underneath me. LOL, the wife slept straight through it.
That was just a minor thing, too. Couldn't imagine dealing with small quakes or larger events on a regular basis.There are 3 loves in my life: my wife, my English mastiffs, and my weightlifting....Man, my wife gets really pissed when I get the 3 confused...

Ok, Marcus called and suggested I take another 1/2 Flexeril, so I couldn't argue.

12, 10, 8 is reps....3 sets of 12, 10, 8 increasing weight on each set as I go from 12-8. Is that what you meant, or are you telling me to PUSH harder. I couldn't get more then 50lbs of 8 reps on shoulder press BB
I just listed my heaviest weight, so I didn't bombard the thread with my measly weights.

Could you have gotten 60lbs for 3 reps? Then dropped to 40 lbs and gotten a couple more reps?
I used to think I needed an exact rep count. but what that does is in your mind you don't put everything in the prior set because you know you won't get the number you think you have to get on the next set. Try this pick a weight you know you can't get 10 reps on. Do as many as you can but don't count. Increase the weight and don't count the next reps. Just go till you can't do another. Then drop the weight and don't count the reps. Go till you can't go any more.
Yes. Push harder. You have a lot more that you aren't tapping into yet. And when you do the results will come fast.Last edited by Capebuffalo; 04-06-2017 at 11:36 AM.

Yes, I know I could have lifted that for 3 reps......dang you. AWE that's what you mean by drop weights.......Light bulb went off.
for f*ck sakes.....you are totally correct. I know I more that I can give, especially if I do it your way. I have never thought of it that way.....I am such a numbers person I get fixated on it. Time to break cycles in the mind.
Words to live by "Try this pick a weight you know you can't get 10 reps on. Do as many as you can but don't count. Increase the weight and don't count the next reps. Just go till you can't do another. Then drop the weight and don't count the reps. Go till you can't go any more"
Talk about MOTIVATION for next lift......push push push

Reverse skulls I loved. Definitely a didn't feel of tightness in tris. But I only used 40s to get form down. So maybe start with 40s and go from there? I mean I figuring we are kinda close in strength. I think u have me beat though.
French press back is slightly arched. Head slightly forward. Elbows slightly behind head? Best way I can describe

Trust me. I'm trying my hardest to be ready. And getting better with eating.
Awkward with hand placement. I think I kept them on inner bend of the bar. Definitely need more weight. I don't doubt u could do 90s lol. Just like to test the waters and get my form down before hitting it completely hard.

Dang back is still being a royal S.O.B. Woke up with it spasming, so decided not to push my luck and end up with a pissy shoulder and my back giving me grief as well. Just finished rumble rolling and doing a little band work for shoulders. Will have a go at it.tomorrow night.
