    Ok, back from Christmas ritual @ sister-in-law's house. Not nearly as many people as usual, so I didn't scream like Homer Simpson and run through the nearest wall.

    Got legs in earlier and they are nuked. Only had a few twinges in the hammy and glute, so I may have caught that in time. Just need to improve my flexibility and mobility.

    Crunches - ~ 150
    Leg extensions- 2 w/u, Work- 20+ reps, rest pause, 9+ reps, rest pause, 4+ reps. Slow 10 count hold on the partial reps.
    Hack squats - 2 w/u, Work- 10 reps, rest pause, 5 reps.
    Reverse hacks - 1 w/u, Work- 10 reps.
    Leg press - 1 w/u, Work 1 (feet wide) - 12 reps, Work 2 - (feet narrow) - 10 reps, rest pause, 5 reps.
    Standing calf raises w/ double pump at the top - Work1 - 12 reps, rest pause, 6 reps, rest pause, 4 reps. Dropped some weight. Work 2 - 11 reps.
    Seated leg curls - Work- 12 reps. Was hesitant to do these, so I just straight set them.

    64 minutes total.

    I hope everyone is as miserable as I am. I think my belly is going to bust. I’ve never had a honey baked turkey before. Damn. Chocolate pie and apple pie. Collard greens green beans stuffing mashed potatoes fried okra. Merry Christmas you hard hitting crew.

    Pretty good video, although it's a year or so old? :
    https://youtu.be/esxaLZoSSRM

    If you don't want to watch all of it, check out the bit @ around the 19:56 mark. Shows Nick Best, his wife Callie (Marunde) Best and their children. Think it's really cool how the whole family is into fitness and lifting of one form or another.

    Alittle bit of HIT was on the cards

    Shoulders

    Plently of RC stretches and working of the cuffs

    seated side lateral machine
    3 warm up sets - needs this to get the blood flowing and went with higher end reps
    2 working sets- higher end reps but did this very slow time under tension because my left RC was feeling it
    1 working set to failure - went well and felt really good. When I stopped I stood up and my shoulders felt like huge boulders so I was smiling.

    Viking standing shoulder press
    2 feel sets - again went slow until I found a nice groove with my elbows slight closer together
    2 working sets- to failure and down to halves and quarters

    bent over laterals over an incline bench
    2 feel sets -
    2 working sets to failure- nothing specila here and didn't really feel it so I moved on and did some face pulls

    face pulls
    2 sets higher end reps

    machine shrugs
    2 feel sets slow and controlled
    2 working sets to failure

    I know this is unusual but dropped in some triceps

    single arm cable pushdowns
    2 working sets to failure plus 2 drops

    seated French press single db
    2 sets heavy arse weight to failure

    machine dips
    2 working sets to failure

    Chilly this morning. Had a few snow flurries, but nothing to amount to anything. Shop thermometer was reading 29°F.
    Got arms done and will post up this afternoon when I get off of work.

    Took me and hr and a half to find a gym today that was open and that was good. Eventually found one and hit chest hard and fast.

    Concentration curls - 1 w/u, Work 1 (L)- 7, drop, 4+. (R)- 5, drop, 3, drop, 3. Work 2- (L)- 6, drop, 3, and 7 forced reps w/ slow 5 count neg. (R) - 5+, drop, 3+, drop, 9 (should've rest paused this one).
    Triceps pressdown w/ straight bar - 3 w/u, Work 1- 7+ w/ slow 10 count hold on partial. Work 2- 5, drop, 3+ w/ slow 10 count hold on partial. Work 3 - 5, rest pause, 2+ w/ slow 10 count hold on partial.
    Close grip bench - 3 w/u, Work 1 - 6+. Work2- 7 reps.

    I dropped weight between most working sets. 44 minutes, but a lot of unilateral work because of the cheap @ss, dime store left arm.

    Legs today for me. Well, sorta. Think rehab.

    5 minutes on stationary bike.
    Extensions: Multiple sets of moderate to high reps with drops
    Sumo style dumbell squats (wide with light dumbell)
    One leg eccentric leg curls
    One leg stiff leg deads with light dumbell
    Calf crap.

    Better than nothing!
