done for the day. this was a serious kick in the nuts session today. holy hell it was brutal. doesnt help that my training partners are little whinny *****es, so the wife and i changed the weight on every single set, so i got in even more extra training today. i have zero sympathy for fake ass quitters that dont put out. i absolutely freaking hate it. if you are sick or hurt quit, dont fucking fake it and damn sure dont put in a half ass workout. i have shit my pants, almost shit my pants, had gut issues for the last 10 years plus and almost never feel right but i get it done and then some. i have no patience for these kind of things. prime example of how to handle it. gusto came down to train. he hit absolute positive failure and couldnt even budge the weight an inch. so what do we do, he racks it, takes a couple deep breaths and finishes the freaking set. that's how it's done. you never quit and you never let your partners out do you ever. they may be able to move more weight but you still get the same amount of reps or more and you dont ever fucking quit unless you puke pass out or get hurt. then you have an excuse, but you still better finish that damn set. RANT OVER. last part, i am 270 and some change and if i am out cardioing you and you are 220 or less then you are in a serious need of a gut check. no way i should have more wind than you do

yeah i didnt figure it would be that freaking bad. he is about to get dropped off the team completely. the boss says he was fake dry heaving almost the entire time. so i said well did he bring the trash can or bucket over while he was doing it? nope sure didnt. so he was faking it completely. i have never seen a man, that allows the ladies to change and move all the weights around while he acts all dramatic laying on everything acting like he is about to die. it is actually pretty pathetic to be honest. i was changing weights as soon as i got up from doing my set so it didnt take 6 hours to get done. i have made people puke pass out and even quit mid workout but i have never worked with someone that was such a faker in all my years of training. the dropping the weights and being all dramatic really irritates the dog piss out of me to. i think he wants everyone to look over at him is the reason why he does it. i have already told him about 10 times how much harder it is when you are doing cardio and you really dont have many calories in you and what we are doing now is hard but not even close to what it is like to train while getting ready for a show. i think it's time for you to just go ahead and move close enough to hit it every day that way one i dont have to waste my time with half assers and 2 we can break each other off and turn into super mega monsters haha

done for the day. just trained with the boss today so it was fast paced smooth and no drama. it was a great session with a great pump and moved some really good weight with almost zero shoulder pain at all. i think doing shoulders first as well as flossing last night and this am helped a ton with the pain. i was 100% warmed up and primed for chest for sure. i wanted to hit an ab triset but it was crowded when we started up so i had to improvise a bit. great day now it's time for football. we also got this workout done in about an hour and a half and even had to wait a couple of times for equipment. that shows how much the fakers slow me down and it didnt impact my weights at all.

done for the day. not a bad workout at all, i hit this one completely solo, so i flew through it nice and fast. did have some issues on both the sup grip cable rows and the bent bb rows. the cable rows felt really awkward but i could feel the muscle working still and the rows haha, i have a hard time stopping short of full range of the stretch and that's what i was supposed to do. so i had to lighten the weight quite a bit to get it to stop properly. overall great freaking day and time for some monday night football.

today:
legs(secondary)
10 min treadmill warmup

seated leg curls 105x10 120x10 135x10(warmups) 150x15/6 (only took enough time for my partner to go between sets)
leg press (high and wide stance) 270x10 360x10 450x10 540x10 630x10 720x10 810x10 900x10
sm lunges 165x10/4
sissy squats 4 sets to failure rep range went from about 30 down to 11ish. i did these really quick so i lost count and didnt track it at all
done for the day. this was a very fast paced session today. we only rested long enough for my training partner to go. the only time we slowed down was when we got to lunges and that's a give me, it takes a min or so to catch your breath on those. at least it does for me. got this workout done not including warmups in about an hour and 20 mins or less. that's great timing and i did it with a client of mine's wife who was killed a little while back. she jumps in with me from time to time when we are on the same sched. it's nice to train with someone that isnt dragging ass and slowing the tempo down or acting like they are going to die. well we were both about to die on the lunges but eh, that's respectable haha. great pump and everything feels pretty good. i was supposed to do front squats and leg extensions today instead of lunges and sissy squats. i decided to give both my back and knees a break as well as my shoulder. they are sore but not hurting so i want to let them heal up a bit before hammering on them again. just a little precaution

step mill intervals 2-1 for 15 mins
done for the day. well hammering out those intervals may not have been the best idea in the world cause now i believe my legs are going to be sore haha. eh, they will just grow and seperate even better anyway. even though i hate arm workouts, this one was a pretty good one, with the normal painful ass pumps that make you want to hit someone cause they hurt so bad. shoulder got a little ill tempered on the jm presses but i just altered my arc a bit and got it working. other than that everything is pretty solid.

seated calf raise 50x10 75x10 100x10 125x10
15min step mill intervals 1-1 plus 5 mins normal. so i did these a little different today. i did the first 10 mins at 1-1, 1min wide open then 1 min to recover and then the final 5 mins at recovery speed. big kick
in the junk
done for the day. i added in a little bit of some band shoulder mobility work today to try to help out with some of my new freaking shoulder issues. it isnt as bad as it was a wk or so ago but it is still a pain in the butt for me. so back to rehab/prehabing a bit to keep it healthy and not break my good one. pretty good secondary day though, got some really good stretching and contractions in and everything felt pretty good. didnt even put my belt on until i got to the dragon rows. i do need to note that the freaking intervals have made my legs sore as crap from the last 2 days. hopefully i can keep them in more often to help enhance my splits even more and keep my cardio up high

honestly i normally dont man but i am taking a little break from 2lbs of fish daily haha and this stuff is freaking delicious. it is like pudding or rice pudding. it is an awesome preworkout meal or as a a little meal replacement when i have an urge for something sweet when i cant cheat. i have found you can do it a couple ways, you can do it with the cream of rice or with steel cut oats very successfully. both come out to the be pretty close to pudding. if you use a cinnamon or cinnamon roll protein powder, it is almost identical to rice pudding or chocolate or vanilla protein it is like straight up regular pudding. another cool thing is it is fast and doesnt hang out in your belly which makes it great for a preworkout meal

Mmmmm I need to order some protein and supps online. Hey what type of protein do you think is best? Just a simple whey isolate or a whey mix? Or something else? I know I have used the longer acting proteins as a nighttime snack bc of the slower digestion but during the day and def pre or post a short acting is best. Thoughts???

Never been a huge fan of eggnog but a simple vanilla protein with vanilla extract, cinnamon, and nutmeg is awesome

i go with a whey iso all the time. if you want an even faster release then a hydraslate(sp) is even better. i have been using two different brands that i really like: dymatize whey iso 100 and a company a close friend of mine owns called fitstrong. they are both really good mix in there great and only have a gram or so of sugar in them. i am pretty sure my buddies company has their line all over where you are also. stuff doesnt mess with my guts at all, which is the main reason i like it, but the down side is it is a tad pricey.
