    Straight Bar push down 1w/u 2F 10,8 reps 1W 9 +3F +2N

    Decline Skull crushers 2F 1W 7 + 3F + 2n

    Cable cross the body 2f 12,8 reps 1W 8 + 3 F DS 4 DS 1.5

    Eazy Bar Pull down Rev Grip 1F 12 reps 1W 9 DS 4

    Biceps

    Eazy Bar curls 2F 12,8 reps 1W 6 DS 4 +2n

    Incline DB 1F 1W 8 then switched to Alt arms all out don't know how many

    Hammer Bar Curls 2F 12,8 reps 1W 7 DS 4 +1N


    Did some forearm work and was done. I think I am on the edge of getting this. I am so taxed at the end of the last few workouts. Today I didn't even do any cardio. It's almost like I am doing cardio while I am working out.. I am out of breath after my working sets and sweating like no tomorrow. Just wondering is this right for HIT? I am working at a pretty good fast pace.

    Well congrats Bod - your blue buddy(Productive)!!

    Nice session there - make sure you throw in more compound movements especially for tris(CG bench is a must imho) lying tri ext palms facing(both are mass building ex's! Your tricep is 3/5ths of your total arm(but looks even more than that due to how big and wide your long head gets)! CG bench press will help with any chest pressing movements geared towards a much stronger bench as well as puts those slabs of meat(as The Big Man would say)

    ??? Cable cross overs for tris?!?!

    Alright I'd appreciate some of your guys' advice on how to properly structure a leg routine.

    For the last year or so I have had my legs split up into two separate categories; quadriceps/hip flexors/adductors one day and hamstrings/gluteals/calves on the other day. I'm sure it probably sounds completely moronic, but for a period of time it did achieve it's success in getting my chicken runner's legs into something not so pathetic. Now I need to get it right as I try to slowly work into HIT. My only concern which lead to that type of set up is that I have a rather difficult time activating my quadriceps in back squats. My previous gym had a hack squat machine so it gave me a handicap and nullified my poor mind-muscle connection. Now I don't have one and I've been failing miserably. Having a day solely focused to mostly quadriceps and the rest was just hip therapy and increasing mobility.

    I just recently recovered from a meniscus injury and I have been trying to slowly work in some light leg extensions and lunges. What should I do about my squats? I have yet to try out any front squats, but I'm planning on practicing to get the hang of those. Just had some difficulty with bar placement and rolling forward in the past. I'm very hamstring dominant on any squatting or pressing movement. I'm thinking I'm probably not setting something up right?

    Thanks Nach just seen that, heck yea.

    I will add more in. CG bench next week also. The cable cross the body. Pretty much is with your arm in front of the body pulling the cable down. Arm is at 90 deg angle. With your forearm on stomach. Hope that makes sense.

    Also going to add in the other movement you said. With DB's right?

    Thanks for the advice man keep it coming! I am looking for anyway to get bigger,stronger and faster. Will use what you said.

    Yes it's with DBs - lying tri ext(palms facing - since Marcus mentioned this to me my tris have widened and just got bigger & fuller) you can even do it on a slight incline(1 notch up) it helps me with my shoulder...

    What was meant to be chest yesterday turned into back and chest was done today.

    Went to another gym today had proper heavy dbs. So set myself to hit a new pb on incline and flat db pressing. Was really happy to push the weight and expose my body to a new weight.

    Did the usual warm ups and started with the heavy db pressing managed 8 reps hard fought and then the second set managed 6 reps was seriously hard did one drop was spent.

    Then on flat with the new weight only squeezed out 4 reps was wrecked. So dropped back the weight and managed 8 reps with 2 negs and one drop set.

    Then flies supersetted with kk side db crossovers.

    Alright guys and gals where is everyone at tonight?? I need to see people killing the workouts. I need to read about the pain. Fxk lets get it...

    Arms are still full from today. Legs, well they are pretty much fxked. I look like a cvnt walking around at work. tonight. That's okay though, as long as they grow. Trying to decide on what to hit tomorrow. Arms are going to be pretty sore I am thinking. So back will be out along with chest. Might give shoulders a go. We will see.

    Oh man, the debacle with the hacks and reverse hacks last night wrecked my legs. Very sore, but mobile. May possibly hit arms tomorrow. It depends on how well I recover.
    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...

    I LOVE master chef. I actually wanted to go on it lol. I'd get destroyed though..... I swear those cooks get better every week. Almost like they're given lessons while on the show. They just develop and get better every week.

    Do you lock into your squats with bracing and breathing, is your pre squat set up on point?

    These are extremely important if you want to make the most out of squating

    Low pully hammer

    High pully hammers

    Dorian style deads

    Hypers to finish.....

    Ok finished the hypers, got extremely light headed. Then basically fell to one knee. Gave it 30secs to a min tried to stand back up....same thing dizziness and right back down. Found a seat and sat for 5 mins.

    Any ideas? Hypers and all blood rushing to my head?

    Just at the end. I was thinking it was deads into the hypers.

    I've gotten dizzy on both before....but never like this. I thought I was going down.
