KEEP KILLIN THAT SHIT!!

[connstellation]

Thank you for all the encouragement. APPRECIATE THAT SHIT!! Hopefully Ill get farther this time around, before taking myself out for a while.

Hows training?

KILLIN THAT SHIT!!

No problem. It sucks to be injured and not be able to do what you want to do. Anyone who trains through the pain is cool with me.

Training is FUCKING AWESOME! I made a modification to my diet this weekend and the effects seem to be extremely positive. I am preparing to crush my opposition on the obstacle course the next time around.

What do think about superpump250 ? That shit really gets me dialed in

What do think about superpump250 ? That shit really gets me dialed in

The super pump was pretty good. I need about 3 scoops though to get decent energy from it. Ill be going back to the anabolic super fuel shortly. That shit gives me the best adrenaline/energy and muscle endurance. Pump is pretty damn nice too. I only need one scoop of the super fuel. So one jug can last about 2 months. Super pump lasts me a few weeks at best, and still not as potent.

3-17-09 Tuesday Biceps and Hamstrings

Time constraints. One possible PR today. I think. Trained biceps today cuz its the only main muscle I can train that doesnt really interfere with chest work. Which I will likely hit thursday. Biceps felt good with not much strain. So the rest definately helps all around. Still a little lighter from missing some meals the past days. Arm measurement still at 18 1/4 though, and overall just appear a little leaner and more striated. Seem to still have most of my muscle weight.

Started doing the incline DB curls recently, and I like them. They are stricter which should be beneficial for size, along with some of the heavier less strict sets. :

(187lbs before meals and water)

Alternating Dumbbell Curls:

35x15
60x21 (Possible one rep PR. Unsure)
75x7

Incline Dumbbell Curls: (both arms at same time)

50x17
60x8
65x6

Dumbbell Hammer Curls: (one arm at a time like always)

70x15
85x10
70x12

Standing Barbell Curls:

135x21
165x4

Double Bicep Style Cables Curls:

90x36 (Possible PR. Dont usually go this high rep for this set)
110x15
110x12

Leg Curls:

132x20
165x15
187x10
209x8

Ran out of time

Do you still do weighted hyperextensions to help thicken up the lower back ?

[Walking Beast]

Do you still do weighted hyperextensions to help thicken up the lower back ?

Unfortunately no. I would be though. My gym doesnt have a HE bench. I do weighted back extentions on a machine, with the stack for sets of 35. Not the same though.

KILL THAT SHIT!!

[ChromeHearts]

I never get that feel off the machine with the weight plates.


Weight hypers holding plates help.


Ill probably never do deadlifts again. I tore muscle once and strained it another. I just don't feel like pushing my luck like that.


My lower back is genetically not good or something. It actually impedes my squatting b/c my legs are fine but my lower back has a hard time supporting the weight.


Ah.........Fun times.

That sucks about the squats. Can you do it using the Smith to be safer or does it just hurt all around regardless of what you do?

I have similiar problems. I think I was born with a slight crookedness to my spine, or so said a doc. At the base. Now with the ruptured disks and other fun things, I have no plans of going back.

I re-killed my shit so many times trying to get back during my initial injury stages. So thats why I eventually took the 2 year lay off. Even now my lower back is bad.

3-20-09 Friday Chest,Shoulders,Quad,Hamstrings (15 mins cardio)

Since I took thursday off had to get legs in with chest and delts. Chest strength was pretty close, only few reps off from best, on first two main sets. Muscle endurance was shit though. Was using random spotters which is never good. Also chest already looking and feeling smaller to me. Though Im slightly derranged as well. Just a little.

I skipped free weight for chest last week, did machines, so that threw me off. I will do free weight when I can, to work around the back injuries.

I was going to include calves, rear delts, leg presses, possible core work into the routine as well. However my entire body was cramping up by the end. Front delts, chest, hamstrings, and lats. With the lat cramping it can lead to me pulling out my back again, so thats why I backed off toward the end. My leg routines are mainly mantenance for now anyway, so not much of an issue.

Ill try and hit free weight bench on thurs of next week and get my reps closer to where they were prior with 225.275 and 315. My chest seems to deteriorate rapidly the moment I stop free weight benching and switch to machines. Same thing happens when I try to cut the volume when workiing around various injuries. The volume was lower and weight was lighter and more high rep overall. Its better then nothing though.
