done for the day. man super setting arms with calves and abs was a kick in the nuts. body doesnt know where to send the blood haha. the pump was absolutely silly as it always is with arms. this is a great way to save time in the gym also and still be able to move pretty good amounts of weight around as well. happy with today's session and got it knocked out in around a little over an hour with two training partners. so my abs are wrecked, arms are wrecked and calves are a little bit angry. something that is pretty note worthy is that my cardio recovery time is pretty freaking sick now. the 1-1 intervals dont get my heart rate above the mid 150s and it comes down to upper 130s during the minute of medium steps. so we are going pretty freaking well. hip is still pretty angry but popped on my doing the hanging raises and opened up after. so maybe i got it opened up and loose again and it will calm down a little bit. may need to do these a little more often just to open up a bit more

done for the day. still having a smidge of an issue with my freaking hip. it isnt anything bad it is super annoying and a pain in the ass to get opened up. funny thing is i got it opened up on the last set of squats and it locked right back down as soon as i started up the stiffs. the wonders of my training life haha. pump was a little bit silly today. the leg press filled them up super quick and then the flexing was bad after the upper work. all in all a very good pump session today.

done for the day. rough getting out of the gates this am. my allergies are screwed right now so i got some hellatious sinus pressure kicking. so doing any ab work or anything bent over sucks ass. i did get some pretty heavy work done and felt pretty good other than my face pounding. little bit of a shoulder issue going on but nothing silly, it is just a little tight and tender. pump was pretty nasty today and i sweated something fierce from the pump juice. now i do need to note that my low back is a little bit angry along with my hips. idk if i am sleeping funky or from the weather shift but neither are very happy at all. that is one of the reason i have been doubling up on the reverse hyper work. well it could be the added in deads and other low back work i have been doing on secondary days. i just thought of that haha. i got more coming this week as well

done for the day. not the best leg workout at all. woke up with my entire postier chain and hips being tight and tender. so i knew going in that i wasnt going to be good. the squats were really really bad. i couldnt open up until about 3 sets in and it still felt off, so i went very very easy so i didnt pull or tear anything. dont know where the issues came from but just an off day going in. still got a decient pump and workout in but i was not happy with the end state at all.

done for the day. great session in today. i did a little ab warm up before doing my intervals which was a change up of pace. got a really good pump and tempo going today and had to mentally check myself on weight i was using. i had to pull back just a smidge because today was a pump day and i kept climbing up higher and getting near and to failure a couple of times. so the drive and motivation is def there. the pump juice is kicking wide open.

done for the day. day started out like ass. big old lady was toweling down the cadilac step mill and i was like sweet, my back isnt going to be all tore up after cardio. wrong answer her big ass was toweling it off before she got on and hung off the machine wasting time and not doing dick. i will admit i do get irritated when i dont get to do what i want to, but if people are actually doing work and using it properly then it doesnt bother me as bad. it is more of damn that sucks and not angry type deal. anyway, had to use the one that bends you over and rocks back and forth every step waiting to tip over on my big ass haha. didnt bother my low back to awful bad though luckily. quads hams and glutes are a little tender and i have zero issues with the knee, so all is good with the wheel. i will say they are a bit tender and tight but not to bad, just enough to let me know i did work and my cals are just about right.
today was again my least fav, arm day. pump was stupid painful as always and moved super fast. the boss was there cracking the whip on me so we got it done in about 35 mins total. those ez bar curls with 20 sec rest were freaking brutal after all the other work.

done for the day. stupid sick pump that made my legs buckle today. quad calf and hams included. on the set of leg presses with 8 plates i had my right it band tighten down on me so i adjusted my foot position and finished up strong. could have went a bit heavier but better not to push and tear the piece off though. this tightening was nothing like last time it got angry. i have full range of motion and can stretch and flex the quad. no swelling at all and it didnt and doesnt hurt now so i am not worried about it, it could have been loose of focus made me shift pressure to the wrong part of the foot and it made it tighten up. anyway, silly workout today, that broke me off and i feel freaking tired but awesome.

done for the day. i woke up this am with a little tender hip and tight low back, so i knew going in today was going to be lots of grinding. that's why i jumped on the stepper to warmup a little more. first rounds went really good and strong but when i rolled into the damn rack pulls it went south. again i knew it was coming because my hip was pissed at me. first three rounds went up fast and easy. i put 405 on the bar pulled the slack back and sat back and my low back said if you pick that up we are going to be taking a break for a couple months. so learning my lessons over the years of being jacked up for being stupid, as soon as it didnt feel right, i dropped down 40lbs and went to work. it felt heavy as hell but i got it ground out. when i was resting between sets i had an epifany(sp), it is the damn heavy ass banded squats from the weekend that zapped my pulls today. eh, no worries, i still got a nasty pump and had a silly workout either way. i am happy with the progress

another great session in. moved some retarded weights around and i know i couldnt have went any heavier at all. no way, those bands are adding a boat load of extra tension for the full range of motion. i have def got a shit load stronger also because i can generate some serious speed even with the pauses for the entire movement patterns. so when we get back to normal slow grinders i know i can add a hell of a lot more weight on. everything feels awesome and healthy, and i am looking nasty. the pump juice again is making me sweat like a hog and i am still not cramping at all, so it is not effecting my hydration at all.

done for the day. got me a pair of the intermediate grip force grips. they are supposed to target the arm muscle and forearms more when training. well the freaking work big time because i couldnt move no where near the normal weights that i do and iwth the addition of pump juice extreme i had a painful pump in the entire arm after my first super set. so today was a brutal painful but productive session. the pump juice even carried over to calves and they were tore up after the first set. got this one knocked out in just over an hour. again the pump juice makes you sweat like a freaking hog but no cramps or anything like that at all.

done for the day. killer leg pump today, moved very fast and moved some pretty good weight. no failure at all today but that was the goal. everything feels pretty solid. blood work is back and everything is essentially normal with no follow up bloods required by the gov. so it's good enough for gov work so it must not be that bad. i see the doc near the end of the month so i will most likely get the cholesterol lecture then and probably will be given more meds(i refuse to take haha). any way one thing i need to note and not brag but i am in some damn damn good shape right now. my cardio conditioning is really good, all 6 abs are now visible all day long, obliques are in, hams and side glutes are feathered. so i would say i am under 10% right now at just around 265 give or take a pound or 2. i am going to do up a log on iron forged nutrition's syntherno black here next week and i will do a couple pics.
