standing calf raise 275x10(10s)x10(10s)x10(10s)/3

done for the day. holy kick in the nuts day. moved some really really good weight today and reps went up. i shifted forward a couple times squatting so i know my back isnt going to be happy. weight is progressively getting heavier and reps are going up as noted in my programming. so we are def moving up. other than my back, my nuts are still not happy but no where near as bad as it was the first week. so i am def leaning away from it being a hernia. i had zero issues on my heavy set of squats or hack squats. so it is the nuts getting crushed imo. so we shall see. great day in today.

done for the day. nothing to really note today other than i am done with pre workouts. i normally dont use any but i didnt have any coffee and i had a serving. so i felt like i was going to puke for my entire workout. not good at all. i can do them if i take them all the time but after not having one in a while that's what i get for it. christmas party tonight so i will get a little extra steak and potatoes in and watch my mrs co workers make fools out of themselves. my day off tomorrow will be much needed because it will be a much later night than usual. another productive and successful week in the books.

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

i am not a big fan of specific work and i built my best base not training them at all. all i did was hitting chest shoulders back and legs and they grew awesome. i did hit legs once a week and everything else 2 times a week. you hammer the piss out of back chest and shoulders and they get enough work just from that. now you can throw in some stretch type movements and brach work for biceps at the end of back and chest day. that will give them a little umpf and help. i am not saying that this works for everyone but it gave me a hell of a nice base and didnt beat the crap out of my elbows and bicep tendons. but just like anything else you should go back and forth to keep them guessing and progress moving. i think the longest stretch i went without any direct work at all was 7 or eight months and i added 2 almost 2 and a half inches to them. that was in my way younger days but it worked

Thanks for the info brother. Crazy how much we think alike. I trained the same way for the last year. But started having a regular arm day a month or so ago and people have made comments on how much better than look. Just hate doing arms.

done for the day. only real note i have for today is that my abs were actually sore going in to the workout. must have nailed them pretty good because they very very rarely ever get sore. knees were a tad tender also but i know that's from all the cold weather because once i got nice and warm they were good to go. great session and super nasty pump. we also added in two sets of 30 sec hip/glute/back stretches. they are called something but i cant remember haha.

You say your not a fan of arm specific days. What do you feel is the best way to train them. By far my least favorite body part to train

done for the day. nice simple quick and easy day. nothing fancy at all and i am digging spreading everything back out with this high frequency style of training. since i am not a fan of arm specific days this is one of my favorite ways to have programming setup. nothing crazy to note today. i did have a small little cheat for my first meal today. i am good shape so i dont think it will hurt anything haha. i have striated glutes and my obliques are still showing at almost 280lbs. so i say i am holding pretty solid shape lol

done for the day. not a bad session today at all. moved some pretty good weight and got a pretty nasty pump. possible hernia flared up on me again or my nuts being crushed whichever one it is. i actually had no issues at all on my heaviest set of squats today so that's also kind of strange. it is also on the opposite nut haha. idk if it doesnt fix itself or i figure out how to get the boys right i am going to be paying the doc a visit in the next couple of weeks. yesterday was doughnut sunday so since i dont log my off days. i had 3 krispy kreme doughnuts for carb fuel today. and yes they were as good as i thought they were going to be. i even had one fresh hot and ready glazed in my 3.

done for the day.. training week 1 is in the books. great week of ruthless training for sure. today my knees were a tad bit ill tempered but it is cold as hell and they were tender last night already. good day with nothing close to failure at all and at a different gym in my area. actually a gym that i trained at exclusively for a few years. not the best vibe in there any more and lots of illegal personal training going on by a bunch of hack clowns. pretty packed also which i am not a fan of at all. either way we got it busted out with no issues at all and i get a doughnut day tomorrow so a perfect ending to the week.

done for the day. nothing for the record books at all today but a great workout either way. first movement nailed the lower lats and rib meat very well but it was awkward as noted. the bent rows were really really light but my left hip and lower back are a little bit tender and i damn sure dont want to hurt it. so i opted for more squeezing the piss out of them as opposed to moving good weight and beating the area up really bad. my lats def still got beat up though. so that was a successful selection haha. great pump but i am wrecked. it was another 4am day so that didnt help any either. looked forward to a couple doughnuts on sunday's off day.
