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

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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. yep hip is still aggervated as all hell and hurts pretty bad. i still did my standing cable crunches to open up my lower back but i kept out the reverse hypers and all the other work. the deads were def a bad idea also but eh, live and learn. i got a full day of rest tomorrow so hopefully that helps it ease up and relax a little bit. it does tighten up and hurt over to my tail bone but the biggest thing is it just wont open up and it hurts pretty bad. no issues doing cardio or pretty much anything other than squatting but damn if it dont tighten down even more so when i cool down. cant stand up for very long either or it does the same freaking thing. just need it noted and see what happens. back session was on point. got some really good work in today. back filled up with blood nicely so much so that i couldnt get as heavy as i wanted on pulldowns because it was already toast after rows. still over all very productive but slightly painful day

done for the day. crushed some serious abs today. i been trying to get in at least 2 or three nasty session a wk and the others are just blood flow and mobility working stuff. got some really good work in today and moved some pretty good weights around. the pump was really good coming out of the gate. hip is still a little ill tempered but much much better. i will probably get it nice and fired up tomorrow because i got t bar deads again tomorrow haha. that 185 cage press was a serious kick in the nuts, it is a hard movement that is a little tough to get under and moving any kind of heavy weight is even more interesting. no momentum or tempo makes it really insane

done for the day. got in a great session today but i skipped the ab work. i am a little sore and their was a whole mess of a crew around the lat pull down stations so i just did my reverse hypers as a warmup. pretty happy with how things went today, moved some pretty good weight and got a nice pump in. those t bar deads are pretty sick for constant tension across the lower lats and entire back. i am loving those bad boys and it only takes a set to get the whole back lit up. hip is better on one side but i might have aggervated the over one a little now haha. story of my life. i dont want to have to spend more time working on mobility crap before my training because it already takes 20 freaking minutes to warmup now. may have to move some stuff around and start doing some other things before.

done for the day. great session today. the pump was extra extra stupid. i didnt move that crazy of weight today but the whole goals was just to drive in as much blood as possible as fast as possible. it was very very painful for sure and i was hobbled and my legs were giving out after wards. so another successful day in. i am adding in pics below. the detail when they arent pumped is just plain silly, my side glutes are already feathered and the lines are going very deep. cant really see it in the pics but cold or just slightly warmed up is pretty nasty. i am very happy with the progress so far. i am currently sitting at 263-265 on an empty stomach right now
