NO BULLSHIT TRAINING THREAD..........JUST TRAINING !

[38 returns]

today was back chain

hip thrust 3 x 15
adductors 4 x 12
hoist leg curl 4 x 15
single leg curl 3 x 15
hammer seated leg curl 3 x 15

calf raise 5 x 20
seated calf raise 5 x 15

45 seconds between sets
drenched in sweat

now home for roast chicken, mexican rice, corn and greens

then a double protein shake, some fruit and yoghurt then hopefully a 12 hour sleep!

condition is improving a load, abs coming through and obliques startiing to come through nicely and face thinning out. scale showing the same weight so all good. if I drop another 7 lbs of fat over the coming 7 wseeks while my lifts improve it will have been a great 6 months back. consistency turning up eating right and getting the rest have been key for me. that and ingoring the parasite on this site as anything other than a figure of fun and derision.

I am taking 6 weeks off from lifting due to a Hernia surgery and Dr orders. I still went surfing today. I was probably in the water about an hour paddling. Again not even being a dick you are doing too much you don't need advanced lifting techniques to go beyond failure at 50 after 4 months of training.

brian my new training philosophy is what would brian think? then do the opposite. Its working well for me and I am genuinely happy. I check my temp each day (this has historically been the first sign i get of overtraining) and all is in check. This and my appettite are my key personal markers along with sleep pattern to determine how hard to push. next week will be a foot off the gas a little for 2 weeks then back on for 6

Awesome

Anyone else notice how Brian completely ignored Ro's post..?  God forbid he admits that someone else absolutely destroys him...

If its not about him hes not interested.

Chest yesterday

Everyone is upset I didn't respond to Ro post so here it is. Condition and vascularity look great as does size. Only fault I can find is you are making a bit of a face in the first pic but I do as well and worse so whatever physique wise you are killing it. Share some workouts with your pics

[wes]

You are ignoring this loser.

[illuminati]

Chest yesterday

Condition / size / balance/ shape - 👊🏻

[JackTheRipper]

when you are posting pics of your contests you love people on here licking your balls..are you any better than him?

you also think you know it all & when critical comments come along you blow a fuse bro

[Gym Rat]

Another light leg workout done. Just happy to be doing it and feeling better.
A week ago today I got out of the bed after being bed ridden (3-4 days) and not being able to walk from the disc/nerve/pulled-muscle fiasco.
(Reverse -hyper injury of peace).  Old people...

Cybex Machine Leg-Press / Calf-Press 'Supersets' (rest pause sets for both press and calf) - 8 sets
Leg Ext Rest-Pause sets - 8 sets
Leg Curls (lying) - 8 sets (Nice and light as lower-back comes into play, therapeutic blood-flow)
Rotary-Calf (only did 4 sets as some douche-nozzle parked himself near me and was talking to the side of my head as I wear sound-block ear-phones)
Smith-SQ (baby weight, 10-lb a side) 8 sets mainly for the light stretch/movement.
Dips - 4 sets



Assembling my new Shoulder machine today, gym is officially full... No room for anything else...

Shoulders,Neck,Calves:
Seated Bradford Press - 5 X 12,10,8,10,15
DB Laterals - 3 Triple-Drop sets to failure with all 3 sets of bells
Face-Pulls - 5 X 25,12,10,12,20

Great workout.........coming back from that 5 years of inactivity like I never even stopped training.

Training,eating,and resting like it`s my fucking job.

[Walter Sobchak]

Abs, calves, and cardio.

Still sore from deadlifting with the Amazons.   😳

A hearty shout out to the Getbigger who joined us to deadlift. I will let him post up if he is not too shy. Afterall he did give us a 30-minute dissertation on “RipItUpBaby’s” (?) positive ass attributes. We got some seriously demented fuckers on here.   LOL

Arms

Close grip bench (used slingshot) - 4 sets of 3 w/ 315. Felt good. (Took shoulder 15 months, finally (almost) healed (95%).
JM Press - 4 sets of 3 w/ 225
D-Bell Skull Crushers - 4 sets
Dips - 4 sets

Preacher Curls - 4 sets
Seated D-bell curls - 4 sets
Wrist curls - 4 sets

Lower back also felt great (stable leg brace when benching can affect back if injured).
Going to lighten my weights used I think moving FWD,and change some things up.
Need to listen to the signs... (injury)

Couple folks have asked "whats a JM Press". A cross between a close grip bench, and skull-crusher. (Named after Powerlifter JM Blakely who sort of made the lift popular in PL circles).
