Punthra's Keeping Summer Rolling with Maniac, RecoverPro, and Motivate!!!!

[punthra]

I was damn happy about it! Definitely kicking into a higher gear with training partners around. I want to bury them everytime i get in there.

[GoHardOrGoHme]

excellent work big guy. Just getting stronger and stonger!

[punthra]

Thanks, i feel like i can smash anything that's put in my path right now. Kind of feel like i'm playing catch up on my training which went to crap when the wife was in the hospital. I feel like the weight of the world has been lifted off my shoulders.

Simply insane. Great job.

[punthra]

First off i'm a little stunned at how throttled i felt after yesterdays workout. I didn't get all my exercises done but my legs were trashed. Calves were done on their own seperate day this week.

Legs

Leg Press 200x6 / 400x6 / 600x6 / 800x6 / 1000x6 / 1200x6 (This felt awesome but my legs were shaking like jelly during this set)

Dumbbell Deadlifts (Bent low to drive more with my legs) 100x10 / 130x8 /160x7

Leg Extensions (Triple Drops) (Set 1) 285x10 / 245x7 / 205x9
(Set 2) 285x7 / 245x5 / 205x10

Notes:
- never felt so beat up after such a short workout
- quads were cramping and feel just trashed today
- really enjoyed the dumbbell deadlifts as it pulled at the hams and back at a different angle
- Leg pump was absolutely rediculous!

Did a little bit of a shocker yesterday and did chest and back together.

Incline Hammer Strength Presses 180x10 / 270x10 / 360x10 / 450x5 (Strength fell off but that's a new PR for Reps)

Close Grip Pulldowns 200x10 / 250x10 / 300x7 w/ drop 150x11

Flat Barbell Presses sup/ T-Bar Rows (Set 1) 135x10 & 90x10 (Set 2) 205x10 & 135x10
(Set 3) 275x10 180x10 (Holy Crap was i ever gasping for air after this superset)

(Set 3) 90x10 & 135x10

Notes:
- absolutely gassed after this workout (Ended up feeling like a cardio workout
- felt damn strong on my flat bench
- put a huge kink in my neck yesterday and it hurts lik hell when i turn my head to the left
- front to back pump felt amazing today
- been having trouble using Motivate in this heat right now as it leaves my a touch dehydrated if i'm not careful

Back from vacation... Man all this heavy lifting and personal records people are getting makes me a little sad that I can't get PR's as I am having a hard time getting my strength back. I am still about 60 lbs off on bench. Squats who knows as I am just starting back in to back squats and I will have to ease into it. Deads, too many injuries over the years and I am doing them raw now so if I can work them back to the mid 400's that would be good. Isolated lifts I seem to be ok on.

[Army Guy]

holy crap Jason those are some sick numbers!!! I was happy with myself when I hit 4 plates per side on the incline HS machine for 5 reps... and you did it with 5 per side... going back to the fetal position...

[punthra]

Thanks guys, you making me blush...LOL! Training has been just great now that i have some solid training partners pushing me to my limits everytime i come in. Also keep in mind that that i've been having to go harder and harder as my one partner is geared up right now and is getting stronger very quickly. My other partner is 260lbs and has a huge chest and very powerful triceps. Between the two of them, they definitely keep challenged and working my hardest.

Great workout. Using any stim in this type of heat you really need to be careful and drink plenty of water.

man I am sooooooooo jealous of this!!!!

[GoHardOrGoHme]

haha i didnt know large men blushed?

But x2 on the praises. Those workouts are truly things of beauty. Im missing my old lift buddies as well. I was the runt of the group but i got some amazing lifts just trying to keep up with those beasts. Ah the good ol' days. Now i lift by myself and its not the same by any means.

[DreamWeaver]

man I am sooooooooo jealous of this!!!!

As good as that sounds, I am glad I don't have that kind of push as I know I would end up in the hospital or something. That would be the end of my good sense. I am just holding it together as it is...

[Army Guy]

Lol agreed my friend, but to have someone with around the same age and slightly stronger is amazing. I had that in Iraq, and really miss the push. Not to mention a spotter

In my 20's I did have that push not anymore. I hurt myself a few times back then being stupid. I would probably kill myself now.
