5/31: back

low rows: 150x10, 200x5, 190x5, 180x8, 170x8, 160x10
wide grip pull downs: 110x10, 125x6, 125x7, 125x8, 150x4.5

cable lat pulls: 55x15, 65x15, 75x15, 85x15
sb bent rows 95x15, 115x10, 135x10 2 sets

yesterdays diet was total shit. I had errands to run so I ended up hitting little caesars. I was eating hot and ready on and off all day...plus crazy bread. And 2 pear/raspberry beers that night. lat hurts today. I pulled something when I was doing yoga of all things. this is exactly why I don't stretch! these are where my problems start every damn time.

I was supposed to squat today but with my lat hurting i'm probably going to shoot for tri/bi instead.

5/30 chest

bench: 115x5 2 sets, 105x5, 115x5 2 sets
decline machine: 40x15, 50x10 3 sets
cable flies high/center: 20x15 4 sets and 20x15 4 sets
forearms

Took Thursday off. Chest was tough again bc the limits my shoulder is putting on what I can actually do. The pain is more on the side delt now rather than the front head. I'm just working through it as best I can without making it worse. Cycle is woohoo very good! Diet is good. I started my new job this week. I haven't missed any meals but my timing is wacked. I prefer to eat every 2.5-3 hours, but I am waiting almost 4 in between then having to eat 2 meals at once. Seems to be ok just not what I prefer to do. They had a birthday cake for some ppl yesterday and I had to partake...being the noob you know...so that counted for one cheat. I have a pseudo date tonight so that will be another cheat.

Today is going to be back. My lat gave me some trouble this week so I don't know how hard I can hit it. If I can go balls out....you know I will- lol.

5/28 legs

seated press: 180x40 4 excruciating sets
calves in seated press: 360x50 4 sets
rd's: 95x10 4 sets ss w/
lunges: bwx40 4 sets
prone hammies: 30x20 3 sets
leg ext: 90x12 3 sets

this workout was brutal. It started with the leg press and I never recovered- lol. my lat has been hurting on and off so I am not going to do any back yet. I will do what I can with chest tonight while taking it easy on this shoulder. Otherwise the cycle is working well. Some big dude at the gym told me how good my arms look, so my hard work is becoming noticable. My diet is still very good. Only cheating when I am allowed to. This week I am hungry for a cake- a whole fawking cake...and a meat pie. You know...the frozen kind that you get in the grocery store. mmmm...such weird cravings.

Re: Hy-Maints 2014 Log

5/25 squats/dl's/light traps

squat: 135x10, 155x10, 175x6, 185x5, 195x5 PR!
conv deads: 225x5 2 sets, 245x5, 225x5 2 sets
shrugs: 200x20 4 sets, 90x20 2 sets

I was floored at how easy those squat weights were! I had 205 no problem but got freaked out. same thing w/ deads...I had more in me easily but I was freaking out bc the weight wasn't kicking my ass like it usually does.

I am going to start splitting my squats and deads up. They are getting to be too taxing on me and one ends up suffering bc I am out of steam by the time I get to it.

today my gym is closed so its a rest day for me.

temp was 97.7 this morning. same as yesterday.

looking at that session there and it is great. maybe ol guns knows a little bit here and there eh?

Re: Hy-Maints 2014 Log

not spider curls spider walks. they are a shoulder rehab movement with the bands i linked you. i am pretty sure i sent you a link to the video on them. if not their is a video of them in my log a few pages back

I watched the first video w/ the bands. Dude talked forever. I got bored

Re: Hy-Maints 2014 Log

Spider curls hurt my shoulder right now. I'm not sure if they are an exercise I will ever be able to do on a regular basis. I can't do pushups regularly bc they start to make my right front delt hurt all the time- these feel very much the same as the pushups with regard to where I feel the pressure. I will check out the bands- thanks.

Great workout! My shoulders were vascular as fawk doing those curls- even the gym owner noticed and made mention..heheheee. I am doing lots of 5# rehabbing in between all these sets for my shoulder. Its feeling better. I hope to work them directly this week. My diet is going well. I ate my 2 cheats this week, but honestly wasn't really into them. Rather than planning them I might wing it this week and wait until I am craving them. Cycle is kicking in- for real. I am looking like a fawking beast right now and am wanting to push hard at the gym. I hope this is the week to start it. No more injuries!! I am pulling back to 5 training days a week though so hopefully that helps.

I been recording my temp the minute I wake up for the last 2 days: 97.4 on Saturday, 97.7 on Sunday.

Today I plan on squatting, working traps, and deadlifting....not sure if I wanna do conv, or sumo. hmmm....maybe even just some rack pulls....not sure.

shoulder rebah w/ 5 #'ers

What a horrible workout. I only brought 1 sneaker to the gym so I had to workout in my socks...sigh...my shoulder hurt so it was hard finding anything to do that wouldn't aggrevate it. I'm not sure what I can do today. I'm a miserable fawk right now. I'm hungry, breakouts from the cycle are bothering me, I'm not seeing strength gains in the gym, I'm injured so it's even harder to make gains right now...and I really shouldn't go to the gym today bc I really need to rest this shoulder. ahhhh...fml.

Exhausted when i was done. holy hell. I'm having a love-hate with legs right now. the work is so tough, but I do believe i am seeing results. one guy says definitely, but he's trying to score a date so he's gonna say whatever. I think i am seeing definition so thats what counts and its enough to keep me going back for more.

My diet has been spot on. I'm so hungry at times though. I haven't dieted dieted in so long that I forget what hunger and looking forward to the next meal is like. lol. I even know exactly what I want for cheats this week too... a 12" spicy bmt sub with the works and an ice cream from Cold Stone Creamery. oh yeah. oh man...I'm drooling just thinking about those. I haven't had my first meal yet. I gotta go eat.

today I am doing light chest. My shoulder is still hurting, but i don't know what else to do. I'm gonna try to use light weight and ease into it.
