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

[Kwon]

Brian knows that drop sets, pyramid sets, forced reps, etc etc for 40 total sets is a bunch of nonsense for a 60 year old guy who has been training 4 months and lost 30lbs of fat. He is nowhere near that level he is just overtraining now.

How well do you know Brian?

youre 52??? christ i thought you were 19  or 20 the way you type
not an insult, im just shocked

Life is a Circle.

I'm as immature now at 50+ as i was when i was 12!

We all had our stiff serious professional phase between 20-45 yo

Quads,Hamstrings,Calves:
Leg Press - 5 X 20,15,12,12,12
Leg Extensions - 4 X 20,15,12,12
Adductor Machine - 2 X 30,15

Seated Leg Curls - 4 X 20,15,10,10

Leg Press Calf Extensions - 4 X failure

Two weeks ago I took a scheduled week off as the Uni gym would be closed for Thanksgiving on Thurs. and Fri. anyway so I figured it would be a great time to give my sore wrist a chance to rest a bit......PLUS,I hadn`t missed a training day in a long time.

Anyway,all was well with this so I figured I`d hit the gym the following Monday (last week).....well I had serious gastro issues that pop up every few months............couldn`t leave the house .......stayed in close proximity to the bathroom.

Had this for years as I had Colitis once all of a sudden out of nowhere, and lost 40 pounds........I`m a small guy so losing 40 pounds was quite the fucking shock.... I thought I was gonna buy the farm,but as suddenly as it came,it left.....but it took 40 pounds with in........then my out of the blue my Gall Bladder issues (glad I never got the surgery.....fucking quacks).........long story short cuz I`m a rambling fool, is that I used moderate weight today and decreased volume since its been 2 weeks since I`ve trained......but I trained hard and at a good pace.


It felt great to get back in there.......feeling OK again and very enthusiastic.

Thanks to Matt C. for typing this little missive up for me. LOL

A simple "yes" or "no" would have sufficed.

kid walks up to another kid and says 'my dad can beat up your dad'

the other kid thinks for a minute and asks,

'what would that cost me??'

Gym Rat beating Hankins?

I knocked out 5 x 10 with 120kg easy, then 3x decline 120kg x 12,12 then a full effort for about 18, then a few sets steep incline with 100kg x 12,12,10

2 1/2 weeks since last pin. Plenty of food.

Bro,I haven`t followed football in decades.

There was a time when I could tell you almost every stay on any player......those days are long gone,

I keep saying I`m gonna start watch again but I  never do.

How come you go so long between pinning? Is this just cause of the situation with your dad or do you do this often?
