WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO WHEN THE KLEENSTER RUNS WILD ON YOU!?!?!?!?
LET THE MACHO MAN RANDY SAVAGE TELL EM WHAT THEY WILL DO BROTHER! BOW DOWN TO THE KINGDOM OF MADNESS!!!!!
OOOOOOH YEE-AAAAA-AAHHHHH!!!!!!
Okay now that I got that out of my sytem I had a killer workout. You can see I got the weights to where I was actually failing before the last set. I was also shocked at how heavy bench was by the end of the first set. Those slow reps lowered me more than I thought they would. I had to even lower the weight. I will give play by play below.
Workout 2
5 sets on first 2 exercises super set. Tempo 3 up 0 down
DB Flat Bench - 55x10, 70x8, 60x10, 60x10, 60x8 - Started out too heavy, I was really concentrating on counting out 1 one thousand, 2 one thousand, 3 one thousand. Just making sure i was not short cutting the work portion of the lifts. Man it made a lot of difference and just demolished me quickly. I will start at 65 next time and see if i can make it all the way through at that weight.
DB Rows 45x10, 55x10, 55x10, 50x10, 50x9 - Holy Bat's Balls! Rowing slowly is such a drain on you. I made sure to really concentrate on arching my elbow up and back instead of just pulling the weight straight up which uses more elbow flexion and lowers emphasis on the lats.
2 Drop sets on the rest
T-Cups 15x9>10x5>5x4 And so the masochism begins! 3 seconds up, on both directions, WTF was i thinking. Oh yeah BOULDER SHOULDERS that's right. These weights may look light but I assure the work output was high indeed. This training is doing something I havent been able to really do in a long time. FEEL THE BURN!!!! I know the lactic acid is reaching abnormally high levels because my body got so used to drop sets and what not it could clear it well before i would ever feel a burn this is almost new to me again. It has been that long since I felt the burn when training hard normally I just fail without ever burning.
Close Grip Bench 145x8>95x7>45x4 - Do you know how excited / embarressed I was to notice my arms trembling on the last drop with only the bar. My chest was pretty much toast when I got here, triceps had definitely gotten hit good. By halfway through the second set I felt my chest just give up. What little bit of an agle outward my elbows had kind of gave way as my chest gave out and then it was only triceps able to push at that point. Was really kind of cool feeling. Another cool thing is with 95 on the bar I have no worry at all that my wife couldn't pick it up off me even if I wasn't helping so I wasnt concerned about getting stuck and just pushed through the chest failure until my triceps gave up.
Hack Squat WU-135x10, 235x13>175x9>135x4 These were done kind of high on the platform to lessen knee stress. I stopped just short of parralel on every rep, the angle of the exercise was such to adequately hit the quads without me going into a dangerously deep squats. No need to put my quad at that kind of disadvantage yet. After the first drop was surpisingly hard, at the halfway point it was taking my everything to keep the pace, that 3 seconds was killing me. When I sank down for my last rep on these I had to explode up because when I tried to push controlled I wasn't moving at all. I had to muster and exlplode, lock the things and drop immediately down into a quad stretch. My quads were so friggin pumped. My hams and glutes still a little sore from Wednesday those hacks really got me.
Lying Leg Curls 95x12>65x4>40x4 - I haven't done this in a little bit and let me tell you the isolation from them on an already sore hamstring it was AWESOME!!!!!! My hamstrings filled up like balloons almost immediately. I was squeezing every rep so hard it was just intense.
Man this workout was just great, I know the weights are not truly heavy, but they feel so fuggin heavy. The pace is blistering regarding rest and what not. Between the two of us we still get out of there in 45 minutes or less pretty much every time. Had a great sweat going on by the end.
STOKED! Is still rocking the house. Libido and Alpha Male are still high. Speaking of, so is aggression... My son pushed his luck yesterday and ended up with a face full of me. I won't say he didn't deserve it because he did, but typically I may have chosen a different path. I just gave him the Ol' Drill Sergeant treatment. :drillsergeant: :drillsergeant: :drillsergeant:
Oh how cool it would have been to have had a D.I. hat so I could have brimmed him on the bridge of the nose... That can really break down some defiance. LOL
Oh since we are talking about STOKED! and libido lets stimulate...
