HAHA love the pics! I wish my gym had dumbbells that went beyond 125. Apparently they seem to believe that anything over that isn't worth having because no one would really use them that much.  ::) :(

Bi's

Very cold here again today, rode the bike for 10 min to help warm up a bit.

EZ bar curls( 3 sets 12 reps to warm up, used about 60-70 i think it was)
Alt DB curls (2 sets 10 reps with 45's)
Alt DB curl Drop sets (2 sets started on 45 for like 8 reps then did 4 reps on 35's then same on 30's)
Alt DB curls/Hammer curls (2 sets 6 reps/6 reps)
DB Concentration curls (2 sets 8 reps using 30's)

Just felt a good pump on the DB's today. The gym was quite busy but i had a rack to myself so i just kind of stayed there and blasted my Bi's and music at the same time ;D.

Legs

Squats (3 warm up sets then 3 work sets 12 reps with 70kg)
Leg extentions (3 sets 10 reps)
Leg curls (3 sets 10 reps)

Wanted to just sit in the squat rack for a bit today and get a feel for it. Moved up from 50kg to 70 kg so i felt pretty good about that...slowly but surely :).

Yeah i don't know, there are 3 racks in this area of the gym....guess they try to spread it out a bit :-\.....I'll worry about it some time in 2078 once i get to that end of the rack ;D.

AHAHAHAH! whatever you douche, I'll give you 6 months til you're shopping on the other side of the rack for heavier weights. I wonder why they do that too though because our gym does it as well.

lol yeah i know what you mean by that...like when you spend 5 mins walking around the gym looking for that other 45 db or something ;D.

Yeah i am actually very happy with the gym I'm at atm, feel like I'm really starting to see some growth. Even some people at work that I haven't seen in a while said they think I'm looking bigger. That kind of thing always makes you feel good 8). Decided I'll wait a month and post some progress pics etc, I hope there will be a decent change ;D.

Haven't posted my workout for a week or so as not much has changed. Feeling great though and will post again next week once i push the weight up again. Think I'm going to enter the MrGetBig for some fun and motivation. I'll keep on bulking for the next month then give myself about 8 weeks or so to drop the bodyfat a bit. Not going to try to get shredded or anything 8) but I'll just cut some carbs and add some cardio and see how i go ;D.

Oh McDonalds  ;), We tend to call it Maccas for short, i think you guys call it like Micky'Ds or something ;D. Had a tripple cheese Burger and a shake, i think it was all the fat in it that made me feel so crap :'(.

Yeah I'm gona go in it and see how i go, I don't want to slow down my mass building too much so I'll keep bulking for a month or so just add some cardio in the mornings or something. I know I'll get smoked and have no shot at winning but i like the push it will give me to keep eating clean and push myself in the gym. All for the fun of it, i may even get some posing trunks hahaha.....actually i may have to think about that one ;D ;D ;D.

Chest day..........

Flat BB bench press

1x100x15
1x140x12
2x190x10

Incline DB press









Wait for it......











BOOOOOOM BABIEEEE



Well i was pretty pumped anyway  ;D.

1x60x12
1x70x10
1x85x10
1x85x9
1x85x8

I just felt real good on the 70's and thought well why not go the 85's instead of the 80's as I felt really strong today! 85's were a good jump from my last workout where took it easy and still did 70's. Seems my body may have just needed a little break to come back and keep the progress rolling 8). Very happy though ;D.

Dips
1x27
1x25
1x23 then pushups to failure

As icecube once said, "Today was a good day" :D.
