Does anyone have Debussey old workout it he posted it here, a strong mofo no doubt.

great lifts alex - over 100kg on military press is insane for me - I only manage 80
-
Some nice numbers there - good lifting.

Very impressive but you dont find it overkill doing both of those in the same workout? I do one or the other

Totally... military really hits my front delt and seated press, if I position correctly seems to hit the side as well but the benefit is probably not worth it... especially followed by lateral raise; I was on a roll more than anything and regretted as soon as my eyes opened this morning :-\
I heard people taking "adequan" for joint pain; seems somewhat extreme as the main usage is for equestrian needs... another Palumbo shenanigan...

If Palumbo is recommending it, probably means its very unhealthy for you.

Good point; many mentioned deca is awesome for joint pain... thing it's not like I've agonizing for years or anything... back yes, shoulders/elbows/knees no...
My soul hurts a little sometime thought :(

How's your bench?

no homo??? ;D
Jesus Alex, strong boy indeed

All the way a stong dude I guess cutting his hair was the key, the reverse of Sampson and Dehlila.
-
I laugh at myself looking at the type of shape I was in last year:
-
You're not very strong for as big and stocky of a guy as you are. Your legs look puny. Why don't you focus more on your lower body? Also your form on your lateral raises is terrible and you're using way too much weight. If you can't get your arms to 90 degrees from your torso you're not working the full range of your delt.
-
Nice lifts bro, good numbers. I hear ya on the joint pain being 33 myself. I take Glucosamine every day and it actually works. I can notice a big difference when I stop taking it.

I've been doing a shitload of cardio latley... about an hour after my weight workout treadmill or recumbent bike and then I LA Boxing workout at night. But I've been getting stronger in all my lifts since like 5 years.
Lateral raised I hit this morning 50x8 ...I could've had maybe 2 more if my buddy was yelling in my ear.
Upright rows 155 x 10 ...felt light today
Deads I'm weak 365x4 (i'm 6'2")
I haven't done any free weight pressing in about a year because my left shoulder feels funky from a hard fall while snowboarding ...but I can do the whole stack for around 6-8 reps on my last set on shoulder press, seated chest press, and incline press machines.
Hammer curls 65s x 6-8 depending on day
Seated row pulls ...whole stack for around 10 reps

Yeah my old man and this guy I work with have started taking it recently and both say that they notice a huge difference in how their joints feel. Shit really works.

Good stuff man, especially upright and lateral. These are good lifts, especially for a long armed frame....
Can you comment on doing cardio after your weights versus early in the morning like more say is "best"?
-
I lift weights in the morning and do cardio right after because I like having more energy and power for lifting. Once I'm spent on the weights I hit the cardio where you don't need as much energy...it's more willpower and perseverance, as lame as that sounds it's true.
I don't believe in the theory of doing cardio first thing in the morning vs. at night. I subscribe to the school of thought total calories in vs. out ...doesn't matter time of day as long as it's done but I don't eat complex carbs after 7pm. I think people make shit too complex with working out.
Do any type of cardio that gets your heart rate up...who gives a fuck

all placebo for me :(

Alex you are a strong fucker. My shoulders were always my strongest part. I get my strength back in them the fastest too. Even at 50 I take a few months off and I come back in 30 days doing 225 for seated reps. I like doing the uprights with dumbbells. I can get a better range and you really feel it. Also with the front raises. I was taught way back to use the dumbbells but make sure you bring your fist in so it goes even with the center of your chest. Of all the shoulder exercises I like the upright dumbbells the best. The barbarian brothers always said I was the only person who could keep up with them. We would do side laterals together. Start at 60 to 70 lbs. Do just 4 good reps. Then move down the rack at 5 lb intervals till you hit the 5 lb dumbbells. You go non stop with no rest between sets and you increase the reps as you go along. And you do it to your own feel. So when you are at the 30 lb dumbbells you might be doing them for 12 reps or so. Well when you get down to the little 5 lb dumbbells you are doing around 20 reps. But they feel like they weigh a ton. People used to see us when we were down at the 5 lb and would think we were playing around or joking cause we could barely get them up. It is a fucking killer workout. You will have a hard time sleep and even holding your arms ups. I had okay shoulders.

"How much ya glute-ham raise?"

Awesome stuff Keith. Yea my goal is to eventually play around with the 70's .. 4-6 solid reps. Same here my shoulders were already there when I was born; I can't evne prioritize them otherwise they overshadow my physique like right away and make my arms look small...
Do you still have that wide collar flahsdance shirt? ;D

i worked up to 52 pounds side laterals, 6 good reps, only thing thats buggin me my wrists give out, i keep the dumbell hanging with my hands, cant keep it parallel to the wrist, but it shouldnt matter that much. i work the arms just as hard as delts, delts are overpowering the arms from the front, not from side, but i aint gonna train delts less because of that, fuck it!

You know whats funny is I started wearing my shirts like that after hanging around the twins. I would go out and buy and 6X or 7X shirt come home and tear out the neck. For some reason I liked it. Plus I was nice and tan and had some muscles. Now I cover as much as possible.

if your soul is hurting you maybe you need new sneakers.
Good weight my large and charismatic friend
