does it freak people out in the gym to see you do dragon flags?

There's a special, secluded area for free weights. It's kinda funny actually, it's a like Jim Crow but with Iron Freaks and Cardio Bunnies/machine wimps. (hope that doesn't sound distasteful). I do the dragon flags in the Iron Freak area. ;)
 
I bet you get some people stopping to watch. Even in the iron freak area, its not exactly a common exercise, and visually its impressive

Visually, I'm impressive :D

I think being 22 years old and lifting at 5:30 in the morning turns the heads as it is. (I think I'm the only person there under the age of 35).
 
true, sometimes young women are at the gym early, almost never young men.

btw, you haven't sent me my free stuff for heckling you in the thread welcoming the new molecular nutrition thread :D

I haven't been weighing myself lately because I'm lazy.
 
<- I totally popped a blood vessel in my eye doing these.

I hate it when that happens. I almost did that on bb curls the other day. I got to one rep where I couldn't go up all the way, but refused to let it back down and just strained with it for about 10 seconds. I almost fell over when I put it down.

Happy Greeting Card Holiday (Valentine's Day). In the words of Rodney Dangerfield, "We're all gonna get laid!!" As for me, I spent the day with my one true love: Back & Biceps workouts

Deadlift: 375*4
Weighted Deadlifts: 80*7
Standing DB Rows: 90*10
Incline DB Curls: 60*7
Donkey Calf Raise: 450*I have no idea
Hanging Knee Raises: ~20 or so
 
is that what you kids call it nowadays?

I call mine Charlie. The left one is Spiceyuh Meatah (so people can say, "Now that's a Spiceyuh Meatah ball!") The right one is called Mr. Tumnus (after the Faun in Narnia). And the middle one, well, I don't like talking about the middle one. ;)
 
Febuary 15th: Heart Shaped boxes of candy on liquidation sale day.

Chest and Triceps:
Weighted Dips: 170*6
Incline DB Press: 105*11
High Cable Cross: 100*10
French Curls (with EZ bar): 80*10
Seated Calf Raise: 205*15
Dragon Flags: ~25 or so.

Changed it up to french press with the EZ bar. I find that I get a better "stretch" with free weight rather than with cables.
 
I find my elbows control their location a lot better using the ezbar. with cables or a straight bb I tend to blow form easier

Invalid Link Removed


Also note, I will be starting a new routine next week. It'll still be MT/RF, but I'll be rotating through 3 different workouts (Legs & Delts, Chest & Tri's, Back & Bi's).
 
Unfortunately the video was a one-time deal. I had to give my sister her camera back later that day. (I borrowed it to take pic's at the Arnold).


Today starts the new routine. Gonna be working out the same 4 times a week, but rotating through 3 different workouts (Legs & Shoulders, Chest & Tri's, back & Bi's).

Day 1 is Legs and Shoulders:

Snatches: 135*4
Cleans: 185*4
Leg Press: 560*16
Hamstring Curl: 50*9
Seated Calf Raise: 180*20
Dragon Flags: 20
 
Chest & Triceps:
Weighted Dips: 145*9+1 (figured I'd go lighter, get some higher reps, and try going a li'l deeper)
Hammer Strength Isolateral Chest Press: 270*10+1
JM Press: 185*11
French Press: 90*10
Donkey Calf Raise: 360*32
Decline Crunches: 25*14
 
Thursday, March 13th

Back & Biceps:

Deadlift: 335*12
Barbell Row: 225*9 (brought the bar to my sternum this time, instead of my stomach. Not a fan. Probably gonna stick with stomach next time.)
Weighted Pullups: 75*10
Incline DB Curls: 50*10
Seated Calf Raise: 180*20
Ab Roller Wheel thingy: 2 off the toes, 15 more off the knees (I was afraid I might pull something if I did anymore off the toes).

That wheel can freaking murder your abdominals, but you've gotta have your form right. My training buddy wasn't getting the same results, so we'll probably do an excercise known as "Inch Worms" tomorrow. This is a variation of the exercise, except you walk out on your hands instead of using a wheel. Hopefully this will help him work on his balance as well as utilizing his stomach muscles to pull through the roll-out motion, instead of his chest.
 
Chest & Triceps:
Weighted Dips: 145*9+1 (figured I'd go lighter, get some higher reps, and try going a li'l deeper)
Hammer Strength Isolateral Chest Press: 270*10+1

French Press: 90*10
Donkey Calf Raise: 360*32
Decline Crunches: 25*14
DEEPER, DEEPER, DEEPER! :blink:
 
My trainer has me do walkouts..hate em'!

As for the videos..I have a camera don't make me drive down there to be your videographer!!!
 
Well, the next time I'm home (Easter?) I'll see if I can borrow the camera again. I'll just tell her that there's this crazy lady who'll kill me if I don't. I'm sure she'll understand. :D
