LOG: Igniting my inner Alpha with Finaflex!

[g0hardorgohom]

Day 16 (briefly, I'm on my phone)

- standing military press: 3 sets of 8-11 @ 110lbs (pb)
- standing db press: 4 sets of 8-11 @ 50's (pb)
- side laterals, pushdowns (7x125lbs, pb)

Quick and nice. I was ALPHA!

I was ALPHA!

pb's across the board eh?
bring it!

Yeah. Usually I've done just one all-out set but lately I've changed my training style. It was great that I could do so long sets even though rests between sets were even shorter than usually because I had to hurry to class. More weights on BB press next time and twice that long sets with DB's!

Let's see how I can fight against lactic acid tomorrow.. It's gonna be long sets of front squats!

BTW, Pure Test has helped with libido a little. I noticed that it works better when I take all 6 caps before bed instead taking 3 in the morning and 3 before bed.

And oh, did I mention that I ordered 2 bottles for my next cycle to stack with some other goodies?

the proof is not in the pudding -- it's in the order basket.

Yes, especially now when libido is back to normal-ish again!

Excellent and those are some serious number you got as well as some serious numbers your girl has planned. What do her lifts look like right now?

Front squat 3 sets of 6 @ 100lbs
Deadlift 3x165lbs after few sets of 6 @ 145lbs
Flat bench: 2-3 sets of 2 @ 100lbs
DB chest press: 2 sets of 5 @ 40's
BB shoulder press: 7x70lbs
Lat pulldown: 3 sets of 6 @ 100lbs

She has been training SERIOUSLY for only few months so progress is still pretty fast.

So not much shutdown ?

I don't know.. But Pure Test definitely helped!

Day 18 (briefly, I'm on my cellphone)

Weight: 164lbs

Workout:
- Front squat: 3 sets of 8-17x160lbs personal best!
- leg curls, calves

I had to be fast because of school. I had enough time to do front squats and that's most important for me.. And I won the fight against lactic acid! Spotter was awesome, without him I would've done maybe 13 reps..

Next week.. Long sets with 190lbs! Tomorrow.. Chest, long sets with db's and maybe heavy sets with barbell. Can't wait!

This is 100% off-topic, but I have to share it with you guys: I have a crisis! I realized that I study something that is not for me at all WTF was on my mind when I thought that tourism would be my thing? **** that ****, I'll apply for chemistry or laboratory technology!

Medical sports science would be my thing but I didn't get in last time and I doubt I could ever get in..

[DreamWeaver]

I missed my calling, I make good money but now what I should be doing...

[snagencyV2.0]

i still don't know what i wanna do when i grow up..

Day 19

Workout:
- DB chest press: 2 sets of 15 @ 70's (personal best)
- DB incline press: 3 sets of 15-17 @ 50's
- Side laterals, cable pushdowns (12x115lbs PB), drop sets on both

I have barely eaten anything today and still endurance was awesome! Bigger weights next time. It feels that I'm ready to do another set 10secs after finishing last one

I took a back shot after chest workout. Gonna upload it here tomorrow. I think it looks wider!

Very impressive and what were her stats again? Height, Weight?

Congrats man, front squats and I just don't seem to get along well. Maybe it is the general lack of wrist flexibility and the false grip sets the bar directly on my clavicle. Just not worth the pain of having weight on my clavicle for me. Congrats on that PR though that is awesome!

Man if you can't doesn't mean you can't get into kinesiology, or sports specific Physical Therapy. Either way this is your log man. You are the one who creates the topics so this post is far from off topic. Shoot when I am logging it is almost a personal journal for me.

i still don't know what i wanna do when i grow up..

No doubt.

Another PR that is awesome brother!

Concerning front squats I have overdeveloped front delts that seems to give me a nice spot the lay the bar as it doen't bother me in the least.

[MrKleen73]

Yeah, working on that now Doug!

She is 5'4.5" and a little over 130lbs ATM.. Weight is steadily going down and her goal is to permanently get under 130lbs and cycle calories after she makes it.. Today she benched 3 sets of 4 @ 100lbs (last week only 2 sets of 2), I wish my progress would be that fast too!

Front squat is IMO too underrated excercise. For me it build muscle better than back squats even though my back squat is +100lbs better.. But it just doesn't work for some people.

If wrist flexibility is a problem, try pharaoh grip! It's difficult at first but it's awesome when you learn it. I use it nowadays and I like it lot more than normal grip..
