today

chest/tri/calves

10 min treadmill warmup (change of pace and need to let my abs heal)
roller work
db press 25x8 40x8 55x8 70x8 90x8 105x8 ds110x8ds 80x16ds 60x14 (happy with that)
bench press 225x5/5 (45 sec rest working explosiveness and speed)
assist machine dips ss x8/4ss
peck deck fly ss ss105x10 ss120x10/3
cross arm cable tri extensions 100x10 80x10/9 (100 was to heavy for 10sets for sure)
seated calf raise 50x10 75x10 75x25/4 (4sec hold at the bottom each rep)

done for the day. day two of early morning wake up haha. i am still sick as a dog and even though i am sleeping even shitter than i usually do and getting up butt crack early with no napping i am actually staying strong and my body and joints feel really good. another day of getting stronger with more endurance with each successive set. i should have went heavier on the flat bench but i played it safe with less than 60sec rest between sets. i was literally coming off the bench i was moving the weight so fast. 2 sec pause on the chest each rep on every set and it moved faster each set. crazy in my mind. good day in and out and i dont have to get up early tomorrow. so we shall see how weds and thrus goes.

done for the day. been a rough last couple of days. i am sick as fuck again. so i feel like dead animal ass haha. christmas eve and christmas day both i was a hurting unit. also the last couple of days i have eaten anything and everything i wanted to. it's all good, unlike stupid people that dont eat the way they are supposed to, you need more than 2 days to put on any actual weight unless you body is all jacked up. so this am empty stomach i stepped onto the scale after doing some serious eating over the weekend and i am only up 3lbs. 271 on the dot and i have been floating between 265 and 268 and if i were a beating man i would say those 3 are actually poo and water haha. as for todays session it was slow and crappy but i did hit some really good weight. back feels good and other than being sick as a dog i am happy with today's numbers and work. pump was extra stupid from all the additional sugar too.

done for the day. nice easy fast paced number 2 leg day for the week. kind of weird but i am not losing strength as my sets progress i am getting stronger. so i started with 90 and it felt heavy as shit and i thought damn i am going to have to do my sets with only 90lbs. so then i said screw it and went to a hundo. did it and the first one i was like damn that was more brutal than what i thought and i may have to drop back down. then set number 2 was easy and it got easier with each progressive set. no additional rest time or nothing. we where busting them out with i would say about 45-60 sec max between them. so that's not it. i am perplexed because it is happening on back and chest as well. just a little side note on this for those reading and following along.

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.

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.

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

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
