**Marcus's HIT Dungeon**

Wife massages back? I don't think I've ever heard that before. You mean that stuff actually does happen? I'm gonna have a sit down with my wife tonight.

Yeah but like I said, she might as well not.. I can't feel a damn thing. Was going to buy one of those seated massage chairs but those can't seem to get it done either.

[Igifuno]

Yeah, I chicken'd out. She made me dinner, so I figure I better not push it.

Tell her you've got a kink in your neck and you wish someone could massage it.. That's a pretty obvious hint. Lol.

[Igifuno]

So I will be taken a day off today and doing leg day tomorrow! Doms in quads and lower back will make it a poor workout so I'll rest up, eat and maybe have a bath, do some light cardio on stationary bike, and foam roll today.

Way to keep in motion on your off day KJ. I've been slow moving the past few days and feel like hell this morning. Id like to say I'll get in there today but not sure. Taking out the trash last night felt great actually. Lol.

trying Igi... Long way to go and a lot of fat to drop but I'll get there.

So I threw this out there and she rubbed my neck for about a minute and then said she would schedule me another massage (I just had one less than a week ago). Neck/Back rubs and BJs are about the same these days. They rarely show up, and when they do, it's only for a minute.

No love. Haters gonna hate.

Lmao.. So you get a professional session out of the deal?! I'll take that!

[-KJ-]

So something has come up tomorrow and it means I've to hit the gym early. I'm not a fan of eating within 90minutes of workin out so I'm thinking carb meal before bed then hit the gym on an empty stomach with BCAAs?

Opinions?

Hit chest this morning and did some supersets, started with incline flyes and went straight in incline press with DB's. Went really well but still suffer with my cuff that's why I was doing supersets to bring the weight down but try and keep the intensity up there.

Chest was pumped really good but I am sure I am losing size in the upper chest area due to not being able to push beyond failure. Its just how my body responds I need to do it and I am getting frustrated about my chest workouts.... ergggggggg going to make my legs suffer for it tomorrow

Will catch up with the thread later on, just been busy guys

Sounds good Marcus. You know yourself better than anyone, get the cuff right first and then I'm sure your upper chest will explode.

Exactly what I've being doing lately, I warm up with chins, only 3/4 Reps a time!

[-KJ-]

Stationary bike workout seemed to help my legs recover a bit today.

Ready for legs tomorrow morning.
Thinking of doing the following:
Extensions
Lying curls
Leg press (quad focused)
Standing curls
Lunges
Calf press

Wow..... All week I've been putting in 12 hours or more at work. This shit is tough...... My gym isn't 24hrs either which doesn't help.

On the bright side..... I've earned a nick name already lol! "Captain America" bahahahaha

Suits you well..

Couldn't stand it anymore and hit the gym today. Felt alot better toward late afternoon so I bundled up, sweatpants and sweatshirt, hooded up, gloves, didn't touch my face or speak a word the whole time in the gym...wiped down all equipment before and after - hit legs and did everything 'backward', so to speak... calves, hams, quads, then abs/obliques... pretty decent session for being out for 5 days and just getting over being sick..

Glad you're feelin' better Ig...

[RipOwens]

Had to get a new phone so I disappeared for a few days but hit legs yesterday and went high reps for a change, which really has me hurting today. Also plan to add squats to every leg routine pretty much from now on.

Thx Rip. Glad you're back. There was a thread a couple days ago where guys that trained differently had a high rep squat contest. Not sure if you saw it but it was pretty interesting.

[almostgone]

I'm running a couple of days behind on my lifts. Had to work over...maintenance being shorthanded due to the snow. I have got my lower carb and higher carb meals laid out and gave copies to my wife. That will streamline things a tad. Will be back at it lifting today.

[-KJ-]

So got up this morning early, quads are still tigh, legs are off until tomorrow. I want my legs 100% for the workout!

Nutrition is good though, basic for now. 2/3 carb meals a day, high protein, moderate fat just below maintenance. In another 7-10days I can adjust. Starting like this gives me plenty to change when plateaus hit.

Being sick in pct ig how has it effected you?
Are you totally over it now

[marcus300]

Going to hell in 5 mins. It's legs and I've not done them for ages due to my lower back. Going to make myself suffer so much.

This is the mindset I had but it will be waiting until tomorrow.. Let us know how it goes big guy

[satisfaction1822]

Gyms been good for me recently, joined a new gym that's a dungeon so my workouts changed a lot, and I'm def feeling it lol. Goals for ATM is to maintaning my weight and lose fat.(been working my ass off this year, so I'm gonna travel around this summer) I've also been hitting squats 3x a week heavy/rep/exsplsive days. Been feeling it nice thanks to advice kel gave me for my knee.

Haven't eaten well over the past few days, lost 4 lbs and feeling a little deflated. I'm confident it's just the lack of food and gym time and I aim to bounce back.

Definitely bad timing getting sick at the beginning of pct. Have to fight harder now.. So be it.

Nothing wrong with that. Just bounce the order around. First, middle, last, etc. Don't be afraid to skip squats every now and then if your back needs the break.

[RaginCajun]

my groin is still sore from monday! my chest is just starting to get some soreness in it. can't really grip too well with the tendinitis so did machines and cables in a semi-HIT way. i didn't rest long and did a lot of negatives.

kel, what type/brand of DMSO do you prefer? not sure if you mentioned or i could have missed it.

How was satan today? Did you tell him hello for me?

I started with hack squats this time around thought I wouldn't pre exhaust. Warmed up really well with plenty of high reps sets and I felt like a god. Started to add some plates and it was easy I destroyed them. At the point were your mind tells you to stop and rack the weight I said to myself "carry on you cvnt its the only way to be bigger than anyone else" so I dug down deep and carried on until I felt my throat open up and was on the verge of being sick, I rested at the top for around 5 breaths and carried on until I got a leg tremble then I knew I was in trouble so I racked it and fell off the hack squats and started to stretch my lower back out.

Then it was squat time, absolutely destroyed them, it some heavy weight and all the way down took me to being sick again but I managed 3 sets of serious hardcore squatting.

Leg extension full stack plus I added a plate and I pumped them out clean and controlled, the whole gym was watching me grunt through 3 sets. The pain was intense and kind of made me feel really unwell but a nice burning sensation with deep hot pain which was nice in a strange kind of way.

Lying leg curls - again hit some serious weight and also stretched my hams out between sets

Calves - which made me walk like a cvnt

Seeing that I missed legs last week and its been nearly 2 weeks since ive done them I was fully repaired and very strong. I was amazed with the power ive built up using pre exhausted but its does bother me with my lower back, so next week going back to pre exhaust and see what comes of that.

I slapped the devil with a right hook and then followed it up with a left upper cut, he was over and out but he did say I will be waiting for you next time

[Fllifter]

I hope that SOB is ready for another beat down later today I'm coming to get him.
