Nice stuff Semper, vids look good. That corner row drop set looked great. I knew you wouldn't be missing that intensity for long. Get after it bro!
I've got plenty of tricks up my sleave!!! muuhahhahaha Glad you like the split!Nice vids man...i started your split this week and my gym buddies are loving it as well
Yeah man! The intensity was just a smidgen off the other day. It's back on track NOW! I like using 25's on the corner rows. Better range of motion. I will be adding some 35's on the end of the stack for next week. I'm bringin it the best I can bro! I DO appreciate the support!Nice stuff Semper, vids look good. That corner row drop set looked great. I knew you wouldn't be missing that intensity for long. Get after it bro!
Dr. Joe's show in Evansville, Indiana on August 2nd.Dig the T Bar row. I do the same thing at home!!!
BTW: What show are you doing? Sorry I missed it in yout thread.
ouch!Not sure exactly what happened or what was on her mind at the time but she accidently dropped the 100 lb dumbbell in my lap, instead of "gently" placing it. NOT too pleasurable!

I'm gettin closer to where I am aiming! I plan on being damn close at approx. 4 weeks out and very slowly fill out. I have plenty of work to do. The leg pic that Bill posted was taken after our back/tri workout. Very flat in the pic. It's coming together slowly! I got a ton of sleep last night and feel awesome today. I'm anxiously anticipating tomorrow's havoc!!! I love this stuff!!!I am still amazed at your conditioning at this point man; don't believe I have seen anyone this dialed that far out. Definitely an inspiration for me - you have changed my whole philosophy re. how I go about my own prep - I always liked to do it in the shortest amount of time possible (cut corners a little too much last prep), but you have changed my outlook! Keep cracking brother! (enjoy that rest day today tho..)
Means a lot to me coming from someone of your caliber Doug! This inspires me to push it harder! Thanks man!Dude mad impressive legs. Better than I have seen on most pros! Keep pushing! I'm rooting for you.
One of the best exercises for quad and glute development IMO.8) Smith Machine Squats: 1 set x 20 (ATG, knees and feet together)
Hear ya on feeding off others progressions, no doubt! You already know you're a great inspiration for myself, and yeah, seeing these other accomplished guys on here doing their thing is a TREMENDOUS boost for one's drive!The only word that comes to mind after today's back/tricep workout is NUMB!!! My back feels as if someone detached it from my person and beat on it with a 20 lb sledge hammer for about an hour! I had a kick a** workout and didn't want it to end. One thing about this forum that I really appreciate is being able to follow everyone's progress and feed off of their energy and motivation. It's like I have multiple virtual workout partners when I train. Training with Bill on a monthly basis is in a league of it's own. The intensity check during our workout carries over for weeks and I'm fired the frick up!!! It's time to step it up!
