good stuff man, why three different presses though?

Ursus · « **Reply #2 on:** July 26, 2008, 11:55:39 AM »

last set was just for a pump very light no real effort or care for fun.

seated presses are higher reps. done them for a change instead or arnold presses.

8 sets of DB incline with the 121's?? or am i misreading?

Ursus · « **Reply #8 on:** July 28, 2008, 01:45:19 PM »

nope you are right. was only low reps on purpose. Sets of 3 then a 6 to finish off

I done 6's with 265 very easy paused as i am still getting back from a injury. Playing it safe just. I caould do 12 paused though better safe than sorry lol.

I done a single just with 295 as i am doing a PLing comp on september 13th and dont want to disrupt my size training by changing to PLing again so i throw a heavier weight in at the end of the benching so i get a feel for it. Friday it will be 300, next chest day 305 etc.

By comp time i should be doing highish rep sets 8-10's with a similar weight plus a heavish single of 335-40ish end of workout.

Most i ever done was 5x5 with 305lbs all paused. Then i hurt shoulder. This was at the start of April

MisterMagoo · « **Reply #11 on:** July 28, 2008, 02:01:55 PM »

okay so you did 8 REPS with the 121s, right? not like, 8 sets of three reps? i'm just trying to figure this out.

either way, good luck at the comp.

Ursus · « **Reply #12 on:** July 28, 2008, 02:05:25 PM »

well 7 sets of 3 then a set of 6

Back biceps

weighted chins 60lbs 5 sets Then tried a heavier one at 100lbs v easy. Vid below
Deadlifts 320lbs 3x5 very slow and light. tring to rehabilitate back
weighted pull ups 5 8 sets only with 10lbs
barbell rows 5 sets 180lbs
cable rows 3 sets

Biceps
No idea the reps or weight just pumped...kinda got bored then stoped.

Today was a weird day i had a sharpish feeling in my tricep when doing barbell rows etc maybe just a trapped nerve so cant complain too much. Not too pumped as today was fairly light etc.

First vid is chinning with 100lbs attached very sorry about shit quality
seond is a warm up for dead...so i can moan about my height look how low the bar is lol

Ursus · « **Reply #18 on:** July 30, 2008, 02:29:08 PM »

wraps will be on the way soon man! good shit btw! I have everyone's wraps and I'm sending everyone extra for their patience.. .work has fucked up my check for a month straight..paying me under 200 bucks for 100 hours worth of work each week so when I finally got my check corrected all of it went to bills and i'm having to bum gas money which is why they haven't left yet bro but they'll be on the way very soon once I get paid again. I can't wait to see what you can do with a litlte extra stabilization in your workouts! Keep it up big'n!

Extremly hot and humid today also so all in all was a good day, great pump, everything was light

Ursus · « **Reply #23 on:** August 04, 2008, 12:10:24 PM »

&0lb DB seated pressess/s side laterals 20, 20, 15 v easy

Very pushed for time so i done th ebasics today and threw in a little pumpy thing at the end

Pleased with the 225lb standing press v pre exhaused. Squats tomorro cant wiat back feeling much better time to just get through it hopefully. Been a long long time since i trained properly.
