done for the day. had to get in really early today due to the mrs sched. it was a hell of a good strong workout today and everything feels pretty freaking good. i am actually really surprised at my strength considering all the traveling i had to do this week and being dehydrated most of those days. no sled work today due to inclimate weather. i dont think it was really needed because the pace today was nasty and i was wasted by the finish and border line cramping at the end. so another great day in the books with some really great progress.

done for the day. i am toast today. this was a great super fast paced kick in the nuts session. got great pumps and felt strong for the duration of the work. no real issues at all to note other than elbows getting a little tender during the db rows and glutes still being a touch sore. other than that feeling great and looking awesome. i can really tell i put on some good quality muscle this off season and i am holding onto everything really well at this point. i am super happy with how well everything is going even though i have broke two toes and smashed the crap out of a finger. i was kind of nervous my back would get ill tempered from those regular heavy squats since i havent had any graton work done in a while but it is holding up great. even while traveling. so all in all good to freaking go.

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's
for all you that are and have been following along and know me, you know i absolutely freaking hate fish. i eat tilapia and orange roughy and i hate that and drown it out in mustard. well i found a new one that is actually really really tasty and i dont even have to put mustard on it. i added in some cod into the protein lineup and it is crazy good. it has no fish taste to it whatsoever and the texture is on point. all i have been doing is putting a sprinkle of lemon pepper on it and it';s spot on. so anyone that is like me and hates fish but needs to get a meal or two in of white fish, give some cod a try. hell i am going to keep it in year round now i believe

done for the day. i was out of town today and i dont drink a ton of water while traveling esp due to the location we went. there is absolutely no where to stop to piss, so i dried my big ass out big time. so not the best setup going into the workout but damn if we didnt blow through and get some really good work in. the pump and tempo was straight up and on point. i even moved some pretty good weight around even being cautious from being dry. i am done traveling for a bit i hope, so no more sched changing as of right now. back is a tad bit sore and legs are tight. other than that we are humming along like a well oiled machine.

done for the day. in and out in just over an hour today so we were absolutely flying. great session, not to happy with strength because it petered out really quickly but the pump was really good. my shoulder did get a little bit fired up doing the dips but it opened back up after a set or two. the it band was very angry after yesterday's intervals. so i did a lot more rolling on it today and i cut my speed down a smidge. i did add an extra session in this week that i didnt have to since it's a 7 day split, so that could be why it got aggervated. either way we are good to go.

today:
back/chest (special session)
10 min treadmill warmup
sm rows ss 5sets of 10ss (no clue on the weights, i just did what the other guys were doing)
incline db rows (for low lat and low trap and rhombs) 60x10/5
v bar cable pullovers ss 4 sets 10 reps (same here, it was pretty freaking heavy though)
med grip lat pulldowns for low lat and low trap/rhombs) ss 4 sets of 10
machine incline press ts 4sets of 10ts
side chest press for inner chest ts 4sets of 10ts
flat machine press ts 4 sets of 20
incline fly (this was a unique crazy move i have never done before) 25x10 x10 30x10 x10
posing for about 30 mins
done for the day. killer day today. for one i got a cheat meal and 2 i got to hit it with an olympia competitor and his coach. so i just followed direction, did the weights that they did and kicked a little bit of ass haha. it was a volume day for them so i would consider it a secondary pump day. so pretty close to on line with my setup. got some new and very useful posing tweaks to help tighten and show my flow a little bit better. i am very happy with my conditioning running through with them with my posing. pretty crazy how much more detail can pop when you just tweak something you are already pretty good at. another great day in with a bit of learning. so i would say all in all i am moving along with myself and my knowledge and experience base.

even with today's cheat it only put me 100g of carbs over my daily totals haha. so that is only an addition of 400 cals into surplus. this could be good or bad but hopefully it will trick my body into thinking it isnt starving
