Packers goes Spartan Hard with Spartan Nutrition (Sponsored)

[packers6211]

First I'd like to give a big shout to Spartanutrition and their reps for allowing me to take this opp to log Spartan hard!! I recently had carpal tunnel surgery on right hand Dec 29th, and was on light duty for little of two months. I just got released back to full duty and able to lift as of last Monday!! I started dosing this Friday night and taking 1 mid morning and one early evening. Hit the gym up Friday for some biceps and sauna.

Friday's workout biceps

db spider curls: 25 lbs x 10,10, 30 lbs x 10

standing db curls: 30 lbs x 8.8.8.8

standing ez bar curls: 70 lbs x 8,8,8

seated preach curls machine: 50 lbs x 15, 15, 70 lbs x 10,10

I will increase weight as my hand feels good enough to do so.

[clown007]

Nice first workout! Looking forward to seeing how Hard treats you!

 

[Vector300]

Yeah Buddy! This is the log I've been waiting for - planning to run this mid May so don't hold back. Oh and post both muscle and libido results. Seriously. Haha

Man I do not know what all the ingredients are in this but all weekend it was primal game on. I'm so ready to hit my first chest workout in 4 months. Last year I was hitting 315 for 2 reps on incline bench and 265 for 8 reps. But then with my hand acting up I slowly started to decline. Well that and the fact I lost 48 lbs in 5 months lost some strength too. So I'm hoping to gain nothing but lean hard muscle from this.

Yes this is another very good looking product.

 

[packers6211]

Good grief second week I went running with the co workers on lunch. We have the longest hill that had the road we drive through our security gate to get the parking lot. We start from top and walk then jog in intervals. I'm not a big runner for distance as I am built for sprints, but trying to build up my cardio health. We did 3.30 miles and coming back was a b!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[DreamWeaver]

I recently read an article that claimed sprints may actually be anabolic.

Also reduce appetite

Also reduce appetite

Yah I noticed that, well for a bit afterwards anyway as I feel a bit sick to my stomach lol

 

[packers6211]

It def reduces appetite. I did this last Monday and today and both times, I couldn't barley eat lunch. But it sucks too bc I have gym this evening and man I can barley walk lol. I know it will get better the more I do this and get better conditioned. But sob I hate long distance.

 

[paul56778]

IN!

 

[packers6211]

Although i could barley walk after the 3.3 journey lol i forced myself into the gym. Hit up back day with two of my softball players. Felt better than expected. This stuff does some crazy stuff to ones libido.

Back:

Wide grip pull downs: 80 lbs x 12 90 lbs x 10 8 8

Machine rows: 90 lbs x 10 10 100lbs x 10 10

Face pulls 90 lbs x 15 100 lbs x 12 12 120 lbs x 8

T bar rows: 105 lbs x 10 10 10

The effects on libido have me interested as well. When I first began looking into 2-Andro I came across several pheromone forums where it was being discussed. People looking to use it in solution to attract the opposite sex.

So naturally combining it with enhanced epiandro ought to get things really "going".

Sorry, but not amusing.

Yes it is (but my comment was to get "Spartan" since that's the adjective ha)

 

[Segansational]

Subbed.

 

[packers6211]

Finally hit my first chest workout since returning. I knew I'd be way off in terms of numbers but just got to keep telling myself it will come back. I was extremely tired from lack of sleep but actually felt good while lifting. This stuff again has my libido on all time high.

Chest:

flat bench press: 105 lbs x 10, 135 lbs x 10, 155 lbs x 10 tried 225 just to see what I could do hit it twice and felt like I could get more.

Incline barbell press: 105 lbs x 12, 10, 135 lbs x 8 Now this is my fav exercise and hit 315 for 2 last summer. My goal is to at least get back to with in 275 by end of this summer or early fall.

peck deck machine flyes: 135 lbs x 10,10,10

incline db press: 40 lbs x 15,15

Yah be patient coming back. Increase tension and make the lower weights work you more and you'll get stronger on those lifts.

Agree, time under tension will aid in building muscle, i find you can really target the muscle with the mind to muscle connection by slightly lowering the weight on some exersizes.

Yes absolutely, I sometimes will lower weight and find out I actually get more strain from the lower weight as I am able to push the contraction more.

Love your posts DW :biggthumpup: I'm a big fan of bands myself, particularly with deadlifts to lessen the weight at bottom if knees, ankles, lower back are a concern.

Packers, I'm looking forward to seeing those numbers climb, you take care of yourself buddy! :fing02: (why are there so many emojis showing violence? all I wanted was a handshake or hug one!)

Incline barbell press 135 x 8 6 6

 

[DreamWeaver]

What's good about that workout is that you were working all the different ranges of movement. I would have done overhead cable curls instead of the preachers as that plane had been covered in earlier exercises. That's really nit picking though, you worked the other planes well.

Again way to work the different ranges. Right down to throwing in the cables.

 

[packers6211]

Dreamweaver if you have time can you work up a small plan. I just need one more so for definition and cuts. I have enough mass to work with lol. But I usually can lift 3 to 4 days a week. I go with my brothers and friend from softball so will have to work them in some how.
