Dude you are the king of the WOD
I've heard good things about M140 too. That sounds intense.
Enjoying your log DW.
Those were done standing?
Thanks for following
Hell yah ..you know despite all the volume and frequency of workouts I am recovering very quickly...The diet is so synergistic to the program and you are in a sort of hyper recovery mode like they say.
Yah it's murder
The principles are solid for sure. The plan is really good overall as it does really make efficient use of your nutrients. I am actually at a point where I can feel my body hardening as I take in post workout nutrition... it's pretty fuggin awesome.
Reading between the lines. Yah you know what this means. It means everything they say about the program is on the money. As time goes on your body just becomes more and more efficient. The training frequency looked daunting at first but now I just recover so fuggin fast. I guess that's what hyper recovery is. It's very important to get this right as the whole program revolves around this.
Got me firing on all engines I'll tell you. I don't ever remember recovery like this and I'm on an extremely high frequency with lots of volume and the intensity is madness.
Yah will do some at the end of this... abs are there, still need cleaning up but they are starting to show good separation. I should be pretty cleaned up by the end of this.
I will weigh in tomorrow but I expect I will be sub 204...
I love muscle memory. We can get a bit up tight when we miss time and then... bang!! when we start back up .. it's quite a relief
It's the best possible scenario for you I think. You can heal while you do this. You know you have to be very humble about the weight you use with this and lower weight does not impede your progress cuz your technique just gets stronger to the point where the lighter weight actually may do more for you.
That's awesome!! We used to have one at the gym but it's gone now! Gonna go buy me one! I'm loving the epic too! Solid clean energy for hours!!This is why I do Wheel of Death, ran across this pic from a contest I did last year ... look at dem blocks
Yah I am still flying and I took it at 7am
will stick with me for hours.
If you are a bodybuilder I believe you should, that's how I would put it. If muscle growth and shape is your key concern I don't think there is anything better you could do.
Have you dabbled in Meadows? And my goals are aligned with bodybuilding, even though I will never likely step on a stage.
No haven't heard of that one. The thing that attracted me to M140 is that Chris noticed that the program was closely aligned to my beliefs on muscle building. Being a form Nazi myself this less weight more technique methodology really appealed to me. Man does it work.
Holy smoke!! Way to go!!
Thanks, I am a bit of an expert at these as they are so crucial to my core development.
As you know I have. If I had to choose on or the other if you can put your ego down regarding weight then MI40 x2 is the way to go.
Yes, a while back when Doug was having some health issues I turned him on to progressive style training with down time and more focused on growth without injury. As we have both progressed that has become more of a theme. I did the first MI40 and loved it. As a matter of fact it changed the way I workout forever. I can promise that even when Doug does another program he will always use his "intentions" and concentrating on creating the most muscle tension possible during the lifts.
Whoo hoo been waiting for this!! Fugger gets me hooked on it then gets injured lol
Thanks Chris. I am going to check it out. I have 2 weeks of Muscular Demolition left (with a quick trip to Myrtle Beach in that mix) so will take me 2.5. Then maybe I will give this one a go!
No doubt about it. So many things going our way with this one.
it's a nice sign that things are going well but it can be distracting.
Way to go brother! You are killing it I am really glad you are enjoying it as much as you are. By the way here is the link to the log I will be running MI40 X2 in.
Physique Muscular, I took some more pics of her this morning cuz she is progressing so fast. I will have them up soon.
I got her to snap a couple today...
Nice shoulders, traps, pecs, she is definitely looking good Doug!
Yah and a booty to die for but can't take much credit for that ...good genetics. The work I have been doing shows most in her upper body but she is very symmetrical now a real winner.
