Killer shoulder workout, I did a high volume lateral set and it burned! 15+ sets is rough!
Sucks about the spotters, can't you tell them "hands off"?

Shoulder workout.
Mario got held up at work so I went by myself.
Seated DB press (I cant count any of these) 105*10, 115*8, 125*4 The 2 spotter held the weights the whole facking time. When I started the 125s I literally felt off balance. It was that damn bad.
Arnold presses: 50*12, 55*12, 60*12
Front DB raise: 30*10, 35*10, 40*10, 45*10
Behind the neck military press: 135*10, 8, 6(I never do these)
DB rear delts: 15*15, 20*15, 25*15, 30*15
:sgrin: Lateral DB raise: 15+ sets of 10 reps started with 20s then dropped to 15s. A guy I talk to regularly about powerlifting joined in. Went back and forth 1 lift while the other lifts. He said it was painful but afterwards he said he plans on adding them to his workouts lol.
Thank man. Ya it was hell but damn the pump was glorious.Killer shoulder workout, I did a high volume lateral set and it burned! 15+ sets is rough!

BB military press? Tell them to hand it up and begone? ROM is another good way to make it work, but yeah, I hear you on going heavy...Thank man. Ya it was hell but damn the pump was glorious.
Man Idk I put my headphones in and wasnt expecting it. It really just turned me off doing the lift. What I might do is increase my ROM more so I dont have to use as much weight and might be able to "kick" them up. But it was damn nice going heavy like this and really feeling it.
No dumbell military press. I have people hand them to me because it is rough trying to "kick" them up. Before it just seemed like that FULL ROM was limiting my progress and growth. I mean I go 90 degree angles now.BB military press? Tell them to hand it up and begone? ROM is another good way to make it work, but yeah, I hear you on going heavy...
Very nice cooking me anything good :006:I'm grilling in the rain right now, where's my honorary Southerner award.
DAMN!!! That sounds bomb as hell! I've never heard of that before, but it sounds good as fak.sweet potato banana mash.
Dude just ask heretostudy and judojosh. They have both tried it and said it was good. Easy as hell to make and perfect postworkout.DAMN!!! That sounds bomb as hell! I've never heard of that before, but it sounds good as fak.
I dont mind it bc there is no way I can kick them up. I just wish they would let the fack go. Really dont understand how people dont realize just a little bit of assistance will throw u off.I hate it when DB get handed to you one at a time, but i think i am going to have to start doing that as well. Getting to be a pain to kick the heavy ones up.
I can imagine and pair the flavors & textures in my head and it's pre-good tasting to me.Dude just ask heretostudy and judojosh. They have both tried it and said it was good. Easy as hell to make and perfect postworkout.

It is pretty epic not to toot my own horn. I honestly got the idea from when I was a kid and went to this chinese restaurant. They would heat up a banana. I mean it was nothing special or anything but still good.I can imagine and pair the flavors & textures in my head and it's pre-good tasting to me.
If it was inspired at a Chinese restaurant then maybe you should slam that gong instead of tooting a horn :006:It is pretty epic not to toot my own horn.

VERSA GRIPPS I cannot wait...hope they come in today $$$$$$$$Since confession is good for the soul, it's my turn.
My workout was so incredible and productive for me yesterday (praise Versa Gripps) I rewarded myself with some cheat eating as well. Tacos......and lots of 'em!!!
Will double up on this morning's cardio session.
I will completely attest to the amazingness. P.S.: I made it again tonight, but this time did the microwave route and just mashed them.I can imagine and pair the flavors & textures in my head and it's pre-good tasting to me.
Reminds me of the bananas served at brazilian steakhouses, damn tasty:It is pretty epic not to toot my own horn. I honestly got the idea from when I was a kid and went to this chinese restaurant. They would heat up a banana. I mean it was nothing special or anything but still good.
How did it compare? The microwaved mashed version and the oven bowl version?I will completely attest to the amazingness. P.S.: I made it again tonight, but this time did the microwave route and just mashed them.
The bananas contributed to it pretty much the same, since I used the microwave for the banana the first time. The potato was good, but I definitely prefer the taste of a sweet potato from the oven, seems to overall hold a much better flavor. But, like you said previously, sometimes, particularly post workout, spending an hour waiting isn't ideal.How did it compare? The microwaved mashed version and the oven bowl version?
ZING!!!Took 1 Adderllin today and Im facking pinging off the walls lol. Will def just do half a tab twice tomorrow. This should last me a while.
Freaking delicious!!!!!! This is now one of those go to meals. This and my banana pancakesDude just ask heretostudy and judojosh. They have both tried it and said it was good. Easy as hell to make and perfect postworkout.
Haha glad to hear man. I will def have to try those banana pancakes.Freaking delicious!!!!!! This is now one of those go to meals. This and my banana pancakes
Did someone say bananapankes :eek5::stickp4:Haha glad to hear man. I will def have to try those banana pancakes.
Man Im itching to lift. Will do some cardio tomorrow and then hopefully arms. Mario has missed most of the arm workouts so I doubt he is missing on purpose. Not sure if I want to do an all out death set for arms. I must say I have been contemplating a superset version of it :sgrin:
What are these? Sounds interesting. Gotta try these if they are what I think they are :thinking:Bent over hang curls 3 sets
Basically u bend over and with ur arm perpendicular to the group u curl the DB up in a scooping motion. 1st time doing them not sure if I like them.What are these? Sounds interesting. Gotta try these if they are what I think they are :thinking:

They sound like Arnold Curls. He used to do his concentration curls just bending over, as oppose to havng the elbow settin agaisnt the kneeI thought that was just a variation on concentration curls... If i'm understanding you correctly.

Yes this is what Im talking about. Didnt know the name for them. Def was able to use quite a bit of weight. Which kind of made me 2nd guess if I was doing it right.That's exactly what I was thinking.. I love them
Not a problem glad I could help.Sounds like a sweet excercise Gotta try them during tomorrows arm routine :thumbsup: Thanks for the clarification!

Great workout, 405 x 18 is pretty awesome. You've got great grip strength there. Have you ever tried Captains of Crush? I bet you could close a level 3.Back workout weighted in preworkout 227 with everything on. Can u say under 225?
Deadlifts decided against maxing today. Rep out with 405. Got 18 reps which is honestly disappointing in my eyes. Wanted that nice even 20.
Pull ups 10, 8, 7 (improved)
Bent over rows 225*10, 275*10, 295*8, 135*25
Hyper extension with DB lat flyes 20*10
Took a break because I was feeling sick. Decided to go up front and ask how much the bars could handle. This was because Milas(I think) said he said a guy snap a bar with 585. The FC employee didnt have an idea, but he didnt sound confident in the bars lol. Also saw a guy I went all through school with. Talked to him a bit as I cooled down.
Bent over rows 135*25
Ok bare with me on this explaination. Lat pull downs super set with seated cable rows. 8 sets of each. 10 breathes in between each set. Weights were 70 for lat pulldowns dropping weight after every 2 sets. Weight for seated cable rows 100 for 4 sets and then 85 for the last 4. Def brought on a good sweat and pump.
Thinking Im going to go out for a little bit tonight. Honestly dont think I will stay out long. Probably wont know too many people and Im not in the mood to deal with drunks.
Ehh I have done close to that after maxing/heavy rep out with 550. My grip def didnt give it out lol it was my back being tired/cardio. U dont understand how taxing it is. Nope but Id sure as hell try if a set were put in front of me lol.Great workout, 405 x 18 is pretty awesome. You've got great grip strength there. Have you ever tried Captains of Crush? I bet you could close a level 3.
I haven't seen anyone snap a bar, so not me, those things can hold a good bit of weight. They can hold more than I can lift, that's for sure!
I'd say not to worry about snapping a bar, if you did that talk about a beast story to tell!
Great workout man, good volume for sure.
I don't think it'd fail like a snap, I think it would bend and fail.It was 2k1s who saw the bar snap.
The guy that snapped the bar was maybe 1.5 off the ground when it broke. It splintered. He wasn't hurt at all. I know some of the bars on the squat racks are bent. The gym let him keep it as a souvenirI don't think it'd fail like a snap, I think it would bend and fail.
I'll have to google snapping bars, see what I can find on youtube or something...
