wouldnt be a big deal if it were actually people doing work. it was unfortunately the wanna be punk ass power lifters that just take up space. very sad group of dumb asses that think they are awesome with less than a thousand lb total. yeah they are monster power lifters. smh

I know who your talking about those power lifters that put 5 plates per side and then I'm not sure what they are doing with it. But their knees never break a 45. Not ever even close to a 90.

hell no man. these jack asses dont even half ass that much weight. they will do that with 225-315 and scream slam it down and then wait 10 mins to do another half ass single or double. it is comical if your not waiting on the rack. they really do think they are all that and something special but i have seem women come in and do much more weight and reps they do at half their body weight

done for the day.followed my programming setup today the way it was supposed to run and just went with much higher reps to protect the pec. yeah the pump was insanely stupid. actually pretty happy with it because it did tighten up with the pump a bit but no cramping or really bad feel going on. still wont try to push the weight at all for a bit but i can damn sure get some nasty work in anyway. that was a silly one haha. i tossed in the muscle round on the incline because that's the movement i tweaked it on and it still felt good. i also had to stop on machine press last week and didnt this week. so making progress is good.

done for the day. nice easy day in the books with a good pump and no issues. got my blood work back yesterday and it is not optimal at all. so i will be making some diet changes dropping some weight and lowering my cal intake for a month or so. nothing to crazy but damn if getting old doesnt suck ass. i had never had my levels jump up like that in only a little over 20wks. all good though i have topped out at 291 and coming back down for a little bit will prime me to grow even more once the mini diet is done. that's the plan at least. the new additional supps should bring me back into good ranges though. it does suck ass to have to pull back when it;s going so well though.

I love the candidness of your log.
Pulling back will prime me for more growth, and then...it does suck ass to pull back. Your the man brother. Positive views but genuinely honest!

in my wise old age haha, i have now figured out that if i want to be around and keep doing what i enjoy i cant push the envelope to hard. that and i also know that you cant gain or lean out when your body is done or getting messed up. cool thing about pulling back is that even though my insulin sensitivity is pretty good now it will be even better when we get done with the mini diet. sucks ass that my levels got dicked up faster than they have in the past but i will chalk it up to getting older.

done for the day. short and pretty sweet today but not lacking in the pain and pump. no issues going in or finishing up at all other than not being able to bend my legs when the prowler work was finished. great session. i am also already down 2lbs in one day, so this mini diet is going to pull some weight quick. should be nasty.

My hams hurt just reading this.
Do you have a weight number to reach or a time frame, or is it just til the bloods get back in check?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
no weight number at the moment. we will go 4-6 weeks and then retest and if we are back in range we will fire it back up. if not we will keep going down. should be more than enough time to get back in range though. i have to go make a dbl red donation here shortly as well. which should also help, even though my rbc and hemocrit where just a little bit out of range. still need to keep those numbers down

done for the day. pretty good day in today and moved some pretty good weight. a little bit of tight bicep issue going on but nothing serious but notable. i did run into one of the older bodybuilders in my gym that i havent seen in a few months. he walks over and asked me how much i weighed and was blown away by how much i had grown since last time i saw him. another reason it sucks to have to pull back haha. just another mental note of you cant gain forever and stay healthy and functioning properly for long periods of time. all in all a great day in the books

For the lighter weight work up sets, do you move the weight slower and contract harder? (Make the weight heavier than it is) or is it just to warm the muscle for the heavier working sets?

no not really slower. i fire it up explosively on explosive movements and hold the contraction for a sec or 2 then slowly lower the negative. when the weight gets to heavy to hold the contraction for at leas 1/2 to 1 sec i will not increase the weight any more. so in other words when form starts to compromise i will stop. also when i say explosive, it is also controlled and not jerky or crazy
