Today was back day.

I did 3 sets or cable pull downs.
1 set at 135lbs 2 and 3rd set at 145lbs
Cable rows
3 sets at 150lbs
Dead lifts 275lbs Most I have lifted in a longtime. 6 reps 4 reps and 3 reps as my hand started to loose grip. I ran out of money but once I get my grips back I will be lifting 315 or so again.
3 sets of pull ups 25lbs 6 reps.
I felt awesome. Energy was there I lifted very heavy.
If you notice I am started this cycle with lighter weights so I can get better ROM.

You misspelled Focus in the thread title.... so now that you've had a serving, you can correct it and prove that Focus works

I will have pictures up this week. I don't feel the BA tingle though. I don't know why.

[DBee]

I'm in on this! :-)

Last night I inclined 225 with my spotter. Different incline so different feeling. Got exactly to 90 degrees. 2 sets 4 reps than second set 6 reps 4 on my own 2 he helped.
Dumbbell flat sucked because the seat was freaking to high. I did 2 sets 90lbs and 1 set 100lbs both could not touch the ground as I am short all where at 4-5 reps as I was so bussy trying to balance.
Did smith machine 1 set at 180lbs went to 90 degrees. Position sucked but what ever. 6 reps second set did 140lbs 2 sets touched my chest. This was the end of my work out so I was pretty tired.

DId 2 sets of dips at 20 reps.

Focus was there but the dumb bench was to tall other than that honestly I hit it very hard.

I want to modify my routine want your opinions.

Here's my proposal. See if you want want to make modifications/suggestions. The major premise is that through a "morning andevening" workout split, (two sessions per day, one in the gym, the other electronic) one can workout a bodypart twice every 6-7 days, rather than just once, thus growing more effectively and efficiently! Here's the nuts and bolts:

Every day you divide your workouts into two sessions: an "am" (or early
afternoon) session, featuring 35-45 minutes in the gym, low to
moderate reps, heavy weights, simple and intense, on a major bodypart:
Monday - legs
Tuesday - pecs
Wednesday - back
Thursday - abs
Friday - delts
Saturday and Sunday: off

At least 8 hours later (after work let's say) you do a second workout at
home featuring the Electronic Muscle Stimulator Machine. This follow up
workout would be on either on unrelated (already recovered) bodypart, or an
assistor (secondary) muscle group:
Monday: abs
Tuesday: delts
Wednesday: off
Thursday: quads or hams or calves (whichever is least stiff and sore)
Friday: traps and/or triceps
Saturday: lower back, lats, or biceps.
Sunday: off

I will have pictures up this week. I don't feel the BA tingle though. I don't know why.

Have you used BA alot? I never get the tingles unless I take over 4 grams a day myself. Which is a good thing, because I hate the tingle feeling.

[Kevin R]

Modified routine sounds like a ton of overtraining on each bodypart unless I am mistaken....

[sns8778]

Its not something I would do workout wise if it were me. I am more of a fan of proper recovery than overdoing it in the gym. I train 4 days per week.

[djbombsquad]

Even at 2 grams of BA I have felt it but this was a year ago when I used BA.

I have used a similar plan to this long time ago , and wanted to start to a degree, essentially splitting workouts to an AM and PM split, but ultimately one ends up over training if they don't keep my eye on it which I am very much aware of. Another issue to look out for that I have experienced is one either pushes too hard on the secondary workout, or do next to nothing, which means they end up spending time in the gym counterproductively.


With this, and all workout plans, I will try it for 3-4 weeks and let my body tell me how it works......everyone is too different.

Proper recovery is essential indeed, but I am not sure those muscle stimulating machines actually do much, (maybe they do, but not in my experience). Have you used these machines with success in the past? Do the muscles actually get any type of contraction?

Don't overdo it dj!

Matt did you see the videos I posted. Also if you speak to all my friends that use my machine every single person has told me how sore they were the next day. Read my posts on how the EMS machine works than get back to me.

Other than grip my dead lifts were so awesome.

2 sets of pullups 25lbs 6 reps
1 dead lift at 225lbs 8 reos
1 dead lift at 275lbs 6 reps
1 dead lift at 310lbs 4 reps
I could have gone heaver had I had the grip.
Focus was there. Energy was there was super amped.

Last night I taught 4 classes of martial arts.
Squatted 3 sets at 225. 6 reps 6 reps and 5 reps.
Leg pressed 540 at 6 reps 1 set and 630 at 6 reps 2 sets.
Leg extensioned 2 sets maxed the machine out.
Leg curled 2 sets 100. Hammys tired from dead lift.
Focus was there and energy was still there even after a long day.
Felt strong.

[warbird01]

how are you dosing everything?

[djbombsquad]

Since I lift in the morning I do 30 min before I work out than before bed another dose I try to do as far to the 8 hours apart. It says to does the BA and creatine twice a day.
