August Most Improved Competition [ENTRY OPEN until start]

[guitarzan]

Finally worked my way up to 315 on squats, only did it twice, dont wanna push it. Probably could have got it a few more times. This makes me happy, since I've only been working legs a few months or so, recovering from herniated disc in back

Slow and easy! Work the lighter reps for higher reps or if you have access, do belt squats for a while. It will all come together!
Maybe, maybe, try Jefferson squats to see how it feels?

Edit: If you try the Jefferson squats, only use like a quarter on each end to see how it feels and to allow you room for depth. Go easy though, don't force anything.

Strange gym if you are the only one gal training. I'm sure if there were others around you wouldn't feel as "self-conscious"

There are some other women there. Just doing mostly cardio.

I incorporated Ms. Kitty's Meadows rows and they really hit the lats very well. If you get the hip on the rowing size higher it most definitely gives you a very long range of movement with a great stretch.
I highly recommend them!

That’s great! The stretch really is killer! Especially if you stick with 25’s or smaller! Kills the lower lat which can be hard to hit for some.

Leg's day -

Leg ext 3 wu
hypers 1 wu

Back squats 3 sets at 1xbw (80kg)

Leg press 5 sets

Leg ext 1 working to failure +RPx2

Leg abduction machine 1 wu 1 wo +RPx2

Standing calves 1 wu 2 wo +RPx2

Seated calves 1 wu - bleugh couldn't finish.


Couldn't finish the last set of squats. Was unsettled by a senior member right behind me waving his arms in the air while grinding his teeth.

Not much else to report. Getting more and more attracted to a gal that works full body MWF just about the hour I'm at gym. That, while another one keeps smiling and glancing at my direction quite the often. What do?


Shoulders tomorrow.

Great work! I definitely think you should say hello...maybe strike up convo after workout when leaving to maybe ask out for coffee or something.

Congrats! That’s exciting! Please do be careful! Don’t want you to push too quickly! (Btw very jealous! Miss squats sooooo much)

That's pretty much what I've been doing, been at 275 for a month or so, was getting bout ten reps with it, not straining too hard. Plan to stay at 315 for awhile. Thsnks for the advice, I'll have to look up Jefferson squats!

It really doesn't take much weight, either. I used them a decent amount a couple of years ago when something let loose in my vastus lateralis while doing hack squats in my 45° leg press.

That's interesting, I'll definitely give it a try

[hammerheart]

You should strike up a nice conversation with the ladies, but when they are not in the gym at the same time, that's kind of disrespectful, IMHO. Nothing too much, just a nice chat, maybe grab a post workout coffee or whatever y'all drink over there. See how things progress.

I guess a wee chat is nothing but never made that step, not easy for me I never know what to say. Guess I got to start from somewhere...

[cousinmuscles]

Last night's training, accompanied by the propionate demon...

Injected 0.75ml in each pectoral major (0.5ml prop 0.25 NPP) around 36h prior to the workout. Pecs were virgin to pinning prior to this. Left pec went ok but much more painful than other muscles typical prop pain. Right pec got all fucked up. Mobility issues and it seems some of the oil must have ended up in a subq little pocket. Didn't want to miss training so grinded it out but I was weaker and no PRs could be hit. But training chest seemed to reduce that pip probably due to the blood flow. Won't inject prop into muscles until AFTER training them lol. But it seems quads,glutes take prop very well. Lats and delts so and so but doable. Maybe my chest needs to get used to it.

Bb bench 120*6,5
Bb incline 100*8,7
Lying db tri extension 20x8 RP 2 RP 1
Dips +20x10 RP 0
Bb curl 60x10 (+3 rep PR), 7

[cousinmuscles]

Am also getting insane hunger pangs. My body doesn't like being at a certain bodyfat level and will turn me into an eating machine. Worst of all are breakfast and prebed meals and the last two days I've eaten probably 1000kcal above. Will use steamed broccoli at about 1lb for those meals and will try to increase cardio.

Absolutely! Don't over think it, just maybe run a couple topics through your mind ahead of time. Remember, if they are showing potential interest in you, they may feel just as awkward about initiating the conversation.
You'll do fine!

Comparing someone who's blasted grams of gear and still looks like a fat schoolgirl to a natural helps you sleep at night....

[guitarzan]

I dont think cape's leg are what I would choose to make fun of...lol
And being this is a steroid forum, I dont believe i would attack someone for taking lots of gear...just my thoughts

[hammerheart]

Shoulders last night -

Seated DB press 2 wu 2 wo
Seated smith press 2 wo + RP

Smith upright row 1wu
Lateral DB raises + drop
Smith upright row 2 wo +RP
Cable negatives

Reverse flies machine 2 wu 3 wo +RP


Some random cvnt asked me to leave while doing cable negatives - "can't you do that elsewhere" - I enjoyed taking my time to finish instead. He probably had no clue what I was doing so looked like nonsense to him. Guess some are just too vanilla when it comes to training method.

Dropsets on the lateral raises is the way to go. Can't hit side delt as hard any other way, they need more slow twitch activation.

Well Lawrence have you forgotten the long post you did ( was cleaned up and gone now) and told me the way I talked to PB and Kitty was boot licking and it turned your stomach and how your vagina hurts all the time blah blah blah. So suck it Lawrence.

You just lost your jelly donut for the day.

I also need to mix exercise up for my shoulders session. Maybe leave front delts for last as their are stronger and tougher. I don't have the stamina to hit any head with same intensity.

Arms tonight. Will focus on tris as the elbow flexors feel somewhat sore from back day still, brachialis especially.

on another formum I settled a dispute between two members going back and forth with a bench press competition

I think Hollowzues and Cape should also do the same

225 for reps, video deadline next Friday.
