Back - this was really excellent. I pictured Marcus telling me to get mad at the weights - to kill them - to keep lifting until I couldn't do - even - one - more rep. To never give up on the lift.
Oh man, it was great! Everything was heavy today
Wide grip pull downs, last set was so heavy I could only do 6 reps, and then RP for an additional 3 reps (not full ROM tho)
Close grip pull downs - HEAVY - on last set I just barely squeaked out 5 reps - back was so tight
Pull ups - 3 sets of 5 with body weight, then 2 sets of 7 that were assisted
BB bent over rows - worked up to BB plus 35's x 6 plus 2 RP
Low pulley rows - x 8 on the top set
Below the knee deads - 3 sets of 10, then last set was x 12 with RP
An excellent day, and a good lesson to myself that I CAN do fine in my own gym - without all the outside influences that I worried about at first (not much equipment, no spotters, no music).
THANK YOU, Marcus300!!

Working hard in the gym - and at the table haha.
I'm managing to hit every body part about every 8 days or so, but it's working anyway. Life is just busy, and then with the holidays!
Did legs on Saturday - and they're STILL sore. More on the quads, and less so for hams.
Tonight was back -
Deadlifts first, got to #275 finally!!
Hammer high rows - last set was a drop set
Hammer lat pull downs - last set was partials at the top, and then at the bottom
Cable rows - heavy, 2 sets of 6 with rest pause
Lots of abs

Bis and tris this morning...
I just realized that I rarely post arm training. I DO do it - I just don't think it's that interesting. Today felt great, with a good pump, and made me think to write it up.
Wu, then DB decline tomahawks
Close grip bench press to failure at 6, then got a few more assisted reps
Rope press downs 5 sets of 8-10, with very little rest
DB curls supersetted with DB hammer curls
BB preacher curls - also with assisted reps at the end
Cable curls - (same reps as the rope press downs)

What a week!
I did more powerlifting just to see where I'm at. The next meet is the end of January - so about 6 weeks away. Did better than expected:
Squat 220
Bench 155
Deadlift 275!
Will get back to true bodybuilding next week and hit the weights hard

Thank you for stopping by - you always make me laugh.
Truthfully tho, there's plenty of girls that lift more than me. I know that! I only can do what I can do....
But thanks!!

Well the holidays are over and it's time to get back to work - at the table and in the gym!!
Only did shoulders and arms so far this week and plan to hit the rest over the next few days. It may mean that I do two-a-days, like the old times.

Thanks for the reminder Al! I did need a lecture. Too much playing around, and not enough work.
-
12-31-2013, 07:58 AM #234
Yesterday I did back -
Deads up to 280 x 1. It's my grip that's failing, not the weight. Got to work on it.
Low machine rows, last set was a triple drop, perfect form, but not so heavy as last week.
Lat pull downs with the D bar. rest pause on the top set.
Face pulls 3 straight sets going up in weight
Machine assisted pullups, 3 sets
Machine shrugs - some guy had left 2 45's on each side, and I just barely got 6 reps, 2 sets
Great back day!

I like having "events" to set goals to a date. Just a little something extra to keep a focus.
I sign up for the cheering squad! HYN!!!

Hi GGR. That's true about using the straps to help out, but in the meet they aren't allowed, so I better stay away from them for now.
Thanks - you are officially signed up to cheer haha. I agree about goals - always think about short- and long-range goals. It helps so much!
