Title: B's Loggg
Post by: lubawyb612 on July 28, 2007, 11:07:29 PM
Hey whats up everyone?  Ive only been a member here for a few weeks.  Until now Ive only looked around finding some great information.  I thought it was time to make my first post.  Ive been lifting for about 5 years now.  I started to love being in the gym as a little stress relief from being a Biology Major. Currently I'm about 6'2" 240 lbs.  Not really sure about my %bf and never had it measured but Id guess it is in the low teens which is def higher than it has been in the past.  Ive hit a bit of a plateau and figured it couldn't hurt to start posting my workouts and get some feedback.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Criticize away please!

Smith Machine Incline Press 135x10 185x10 225x10 (did these using only bottom 2/3 ROM,wider grip than Flat Bench,slower rep speed)

I took yesterday off.  Started this morning at 5 AM with 60 minutes on the elliptical followed by some abs. I'm not sure what the first exercise I did for abs is called.  Making use of a flat bench and large exercise ball.  Kneeling on the bench with my feet,shins, and knees supported by the bench.  Placed the ball directly in front of me with my hands on the ball.  Rolled the ball out away from the bench extending my body into a "Superman" position.  At this point my forearms/elbows are supporting me on the ball with my shins still lying on the bench. Then I roll the ball back towards the bench into the original position.  I completed this movement for 3 sets of about 25 reps.  Anyone know what these are called?  I really like these for a good core workout.  I then did 3 sets to failure of hanging knees raises.  I decided to quit after this movement as my abs were feeling pretty tight.  They may not have been fully recovered from a heavy ab workout 3 days ago.  Tonight will be Back/Shoulders/Traps

Extentions        4 sets of the stack? by 10 reps/set
SLDL on bench  4 sets 135x10

so I dont know how to show my calf workout in the standard formart so Ill just explain.  I picked this up from a buddy and it absolutely kills me.  Load the seated calf raise machine with a 45 35 25 and 10 pound plates. Start with ten reps of this weight.  Have your partner strip the 10 lb plate.  10 reps at this weight and so on down to just the 45 lb plate. No rest while changing the weight. Holding the weight at the high point.  Deep stretch for each rep.  I do 3 sets of this. One toes pointed straight, one toes out,one toes in.

Standing Calf raises 3 sets of 225x20 toes straight,toes out,toes in

Bench Dips 3 sets til failure * **these were performed with resistance provided by partner pushing down on the shoulders during postive portion of movement***

BICEPS

Preacher Straight Bar Curls  3 sets until failure  **we did these with a light weight 90lbs.  Resistance was provided on the negative portion of the movement by pushing down on the bar. Tried to hold the negative portion for as long as possible***

Incline DB Curls  40sx10 50sx8 55sx8
One Arm Calbe Curls  60x10 70x10 75x8
Hammer Curls (across chest)  25x10 30x8 35x8

 so some of this workout was unconventional.  What do you guys think of the "spotter provided resistance" for lack of a better phrase? Ever use it?  I used to do some of this back in college.  I saw a lot of the teams using this technique in their weight training. I know they do these exercises for a different purpose but I think its a good way to mix it up every once in a while.  Just a thought!

Just out of curiosity...I'm taking another vacation next week.  Unlike my last vacation, I'm taking time away from the gym this time.  So since Ill have off all next week, would it be okay to sort of "overtrain" for this week?  Maybe hit everything twice this week before I leave.  Just a thought.

** the other day my lifting partner and I decided that each week we would lift one body part twice.  Placing it on the first and last day of the split and alternating which body part from week to week.  The second workout will be drastically different from our normal routines, using hgher reps ranges and fewer overall sets.  No real logic to this but just a way to change it up and see if we get any kind of response to this training.  The following was the 2nd chest workout of the week**

CALVES
so I dont know how to show my calf workout in the standard formart so Ill just explain.  Load the seated calf raise machine with a 45 35 25 and 10 pound plates. Start with ten reps of this weight.  Have your partner strip the 10 lb plate.  10 reps at this weight and so on down until there is just the 45 lb plate left. No rest while changing the weight. Holding the weight at the high point.  Deep stretch for each rep.  I do 3 sets of this. One toes pointed straight, one toes out,one toes in.

**so tonight I started to notice Im starting to feel a lot better in the gym.  Ive been really concetrating on my nutrition for the past 2 weeks or so.  The reason I say better is because I had been going through some health issues most of the summer where I would sometimes get pretty dizzy half way through a workout.  My workouts were suffering pretty bad.  I almost developed a fear of this dizzy feeling and didnt want to push myself too had.  Doctors didnt help much saying they couldnt find anything.  Im at about 3500 cals with 325 g of protein with varying amounts of clean carbs and healthy fats.  Next week Im going to reduce the cals to 3300 or so**
