Hello everyone! Hopefully none of you are still in food coma!

Back to the grind today!

1.3 scoops of goodness and I was pounding the weights.

-Energy was great for the whole exercise. No tingles this time, but I also had a big breakfast

Thanks for all your hard work on this log!

 

[slayer01994]

no tingles was probably from the full stomach. Take on a empty stomach the effect will be a lot stronger.

Dang must of had a good day with the PR. And have you seen the new dumb and dumber to?

 

[jayo84]

Not the new one no. Thanks for all the replies. Yeah I have been really pushing myself lately. Its starting to show in the form of some muscle pain, and wrist pain, but nothing too bad. just a a little discomfort.

No workout today. Day off. Hopefully hit it hard for a chest day tomorrow.

 

[slayer01994]

I think if I tried to preform the volume you guys do it would kill me. Great Looking Workout. You are making Menace Nutrition proud.

 

[slayer01994]

Really! volume is crazy! But so is our pwo! and those Pr's nice!

 

[wmihm]

I think if I tried to preform the volume you guys do it would kill me. Great Looking Workout. You are making Menace Nutrition proud.

I cant speak for jay084 but I typically rely on a quote i once read to use as some motivation to preform at a level that i would not typically expect. "if you really want something you will find a way, if not you will find an excuse."

 

[slayer01994]

I have tons of motivational quotes I go to when I'm having a bad day or not wanting to workout. It keeps me going!

 

[jayo84]

rocky YouTube videos help me lol.
and today was the absolute most rediculous work out ever more to come in a little bit

 

[jayo84]

This workout is not for the faint of heart!! I absolutely crushed myself!!

Driven helped me stay powered up for this 2hr and 15min workout! I have never gone this long.

At 1.5 scoops I got a crazy good workout

I really feel like 1 scoop is not enough. I don't know if I am that much of a junkie, or perhaps the blend is a little off.. I wonder what It would take to measure the content? Maybe a good idea for menace?

None the less, this was an amazing day!

Standing Barbell Curls (Close Grip)

[Rocket3015]

You are kicking butt young man!!

 

[wmihm]

I really feel like 1 scoop is not enough. I don't know if I am that much of a junkie, or perhaps the blend is a little off.. I wonder what It would take to measure the content? Maybe a good idea for menace?

I think I would agree with this statement. I have noticed that when I am taking the 1.5 scoop I get everything I need but with one its just not getting it for me either. Us being junkies could play a part in it but I would think it would still be noticeable mabe.... As long as the 1.5 scoops work I say we keep it up!!

 

[slayer01994]

Killer workouts in here! 315x3 on squat and 305x6 on deads! nice!

 

[jayo84]

Killer workouts in here! 315x3 on squat and 305x6 on deads! nice!

I never done kettlebell only workouts, and I must say OUCH!! I am at a new level of hurt!

I was impressed how I had enough energy to keep going through a grueling cardio/strength workout!

 

[MultiVitamin]

Steady hitting those PR's man!!

 

[slayer01994]

I wonder how many PR's you've hit on this log?!

 

[jayo84]

A LOT! LOL

I usually conclude my logs with beginning stats versus ending stats!

 

[jayo84]

Yesterday's workout was less than stellar. It was one of those days. I slept terribly due to being so sore from a new kettlebell workout that I did Monday.

The only muscle group not sore was chest and triceps. (or so I thought lol) I went hard on chest Saturday, so I didn't expect as much.

I was tired all day Tuesday, and 1.3 scoops of Driven was the only thing keeping me going to the gym.

Workout

DB Chest Press
8x30lbs
8x50lbs
1.5 x 90 lbs, wasn't there for me. Since I hit chest hard Saturday, no surprise I couldn't max out
8x75lbs
4x80lbs done

Incline Press
8x55lbs
8x60lbs
6x70lbs with slight bump on left arm to start. still good for me!

Incline DB Flyes
8x30lbs+8x center press
8x35lbs+7x center press

Cable Cross Over
8x30lbs
8x32.5lbs
6x35lbs

Dips
8xBW
3x45lbs felt massive failure, so called it a day.

 

[MultiVitamin]

[slayer01994]

Still a great workout even with no PR

 

[jayo84]

you'll get it next time man. not every day can be a PR day

Very true!

Still a great workout even with no PR

Thanks man!

I was back at it today fellas! Shoulders day was pretty good!

Forgot to mention I was shown a new curl to build peaks! Was rough! Its an isometric exercise where you grab 2 10lb dumbbells and hold them in the up position points the inside part of wrist toward yourself, and flex your bicep as hard as you can for 6 seconds for 6 reps and 2 sets. I was shocked how much my biceps were hit, and forearms as well.

 

[Rocket3015]

That is a large volume of work, how many calories a day you shoot for ?
