breezy's training, supplementation, and food log

Ya I left them the last bit of my OxyElite PROtein to have to let me know if they like it enough to get more (I plan to get more myself).

My whole family squats on Mondays and deadlifts on Fridays. Usually lift 3 days a week with pretty much all the major movements. I've taught them well. :D
 
I wish I could get Quest bars; how much are they each in the US? They're $6 here..

That's awesome. No big lifts for my mother or sister at this point.

They're about $2.50 for singles, but there are "buy 3 get 1 free" deals sometimes.
 
Ya I only buy the Quest bars with the buy 3 get 1 deal. Going to order some online though for less than $2 a bar. :)
 
Ahh. I wish I could, but I cannot import anything with protein :( or so i'm told..

I had a solid chest/shoulder (pump) session this morning. My focus and endurance were on point and the pump was ridiculous (strongest chest/shoulder pump that I’ve had in a while). PRIME, VERSA-1, C20 (for the last week), Jack3d AF, extra calories, and carbs (including Glycofuse) are all treating me very well.



Low Pulley Cable Flyes
20x15
25x15
30x12
40x12
50x8

-pulling up and in to about chin level.

-2 sec hard squeeze

-hit my upper chest very well



Smith Incline Press
130x30
160x20
180x15
200x10, 160x10, 110x15 (wide grip)

-20lbs bar resistance

-~22 degree incline

-ROM: ~2’’ above chest to ¾ lockout

-I hadn’t done this in a while and forgot how painful it was. The pump was intense and I felt like my chest could pop. :eek:


Here are some quick tips to make these effective (and pain-free).

[video=youtube_share;B1VyKATTi8s]http://youtu.be/B1VyKATTi8s[/video]



Incline Twist Press / Partial Dip
60x8 / 10
60x8 / 10
60x8 / 10

-raised incline each set: ~22 degrees to ~45 degrees

-twist to neutral grip in stretched position / twist pinkies in at top of movement



Reverse Ladder Pushups / Band Over and Backs
20, 10, 7 / 8
14, 7, 5 / 8
13, 6, 4 / 8

- I came up with the “reverse” ladder pushup idea a few days ago, when planning my session.

-starting with feet elevated ~3 feet on bar / lowered 1 foot each partial set

-holding 20lb DBs for increased stretch/depth

-These felt amazing and destroyed my upper chest.



DB Bent-Over Lateral Raise / Spider Crawls
15x25 / 3 (up and down wall = 1 rep)
15x25 / 3
15x25 / 3
15x25 / 3



Band Pull-Aparts / Band Face Pulls
20 / 15
20 / 15
20 / 15



Horizontal Press / 6 ways
5x10 / 8x12
5x10 / 8x12
5x10 / 8x12
 
I'm actually getting guys in my unit trying the OEProtein :thumbsup:

Haven't tried Quest Bars though, and I don't expect to. I'm not a fan of protein bars (not the taste, just the principle).
 
See bean knows whats up

Nice. I bet they love it. I'm seriously addicted to both flavors.

I think they're good for when you're on the go. That's why I bought a couple yesterday. I had no food and wasn't going home for a few hours. Some flavors are good for satisfying a sweet tooth as well (like CCCD).

Oh I love the brownie. Sweet and salty. I liked vanilla almond crunch, but Berry Bliss was mediocre IMO.
 
My top 5 (witihout trying CCCD) yet:

1. PBJ
2. Cinnamon Roll
3. Banana Nut
4. Apple Pie
5. Vanilla Almond Crunch
 
Top 5:

CCCD
Brownie
Cinnamon Roll
Berry Bliss
Chocolate PB
 
They're all good. :)

The PB Chip Victory bar was pretty good as well. They have a soft consistency and look kind of rubbery (don't taste like it though), like laffy taffy, but thicker.

I made a small change to my peri-workout carb sources. GlycoMyx is now being used about 15 minutes post-workout (with OxyELITE Protein). I forgot that I had some and plan on grabbing more soon. Glycofuse is still used intra.



My arm session went very well this morning. Strength, energy, endurance, and focus continued to be great.


Rope Pushdowns / Cross Body Hammer Curls
50x20
80x20
120x12 / 45x12
130x12 / 50x12
130x12 / 50x12
130x12 / 50x12

curls: 4R/4L x2, 2R/2L x2



Dips / 1.5 Cable Curls
BW+90x10 / 100x10
BW+90x10 / 110x10
BW+125x5 / 110x10
BW+135x3 / 110x10

curls: straight bar

Last 3 sets of dips: The dip station was a little wobbly, so I eventually put a rubber pad under a leg and fixed the problem. The camera didn’t focus at all on the second set, but you can still tell what’s going on lol. These felt great and I decided to go heavier than planned.

[video=youtube_share;rMDXTocygmE]http://youtu.be/rMDXTocygmE[/video]
 
Cable Extensions / Fat BB Curl
50x10, x5 partials / 80x8

Standing Elbows Out Extensions (Tate Press) / BW Extensions / 1.5 Incline DB Curls
30x12 / 15 / 30x8
35x10 / 15 / 30x8
35x9 / 13 / 25x8

-extensions: standing up and leaning on "standing" preacher curl pad

-one of my favorite triceps combos

-curls: ~45 degree angle

Example

Crazy 8’s
1 time through. I hadn't done this in a while and used all the exercises shown in the video.

Example

Seated Calf Raises
4 sets
 
Nice arm workout. Straying from FST7 next week I think for a few weeks.. going to try a lot of these exercises. Crazy 8's are killer.
 
I never remember to give crazy 8's a shot! In the back of my mind every arm day u just cant seem to remember to do them

You could set a reminder on your phone with an alarm haha. I always plan out my sessions in advance and have them stored on my phone. You'll love them. As JM says, "welcome to pumpville".

So I tried a sample of the Vanilla Ice cream OxyElite Protein this morning. Wow do I feel stupid for skipping not only the IC release, but also the sick deals on Nutra. I should just delete myself from the forum. Dumb dumb dumb mistake

Haha I wasn't joking when I said that it's amazing. I'm obsessed with the stuff. Wait until you try Milk Chocolate man.

You're in luck because I just checked NP and was shocked to see it on sale for $28.82. I'd hop on that deal fast.

Today’s leg session was intense. When I planned it, I wasn’t sure if I’d get through everything, but I walked out alive. I added a little back work as well. I’ll probably continue to do a few sets of back when I train arms. It was a last minute decision today and I’ll make the change next week.


HS Iso Row
2 plates per side x15 (5R/5L x2, 5RL)
3pps x10 (5R/5L/5RL)
4pps x10 (5R/5L x2)
4pps x10 (5R/5L x2), 3pps x6 (RL), 2pps x8 (RL)

-single arm: neutral grip

-both arms: overhand grip

- I forgot how much I liked this machine. I’ll be using it more often.



Seated Leg Curl
60x20
80x20
110x12
110x12
110x12
110x12, x30 partials



SSB Explosive Squat
135x10
225x10
275x8
275x8
315x6
315x6

-I didn’t have the right padding for the bar and 275 was getting painful. I folded up a foam mat and stuck it on my shoulders/neck, which allowed me to continue.

-good explosiveness on all sets



Leg Press (pyramid set)
270x10
360x10
450x10
540x10
630x9, x10 partials
540x5
450x6
360x8
270x10

- done as one set with a short rest while quickly changing weight.

-constant tension (no lockout)/3 sec negatives

-might’ve been the most intense leg pump that I’ve experienced



Quad Stretch
1 min per leg



Leg Extensions
150x12
170x12
190x12
190x12

-explosive/1 sec squeeze at top/NOT constant tension

-The explosive reps felt amazing after the ridiculous pump from leg press.



Smith Squats
200x10
290x8
380x6, 200x6 (1.5 reps), 110x failure

-20lbs bar resistance

-feet out in front

Here’s an example of the foot placement:

[video=youtube_share;HDlVqEMdowk]http://youtu.be/HDlVqEMdowk[/video]



Quad Stretch
1 min per leg



HS Split Squats (HS squat/lunge machine)
50x15
100x8
100x7



Smith Stiff-Legged Deads
110x15
160x15
160x15
160x15

-20lbs bar resistance

-standing on aerobic step for increased depth/stretch (and because the machine bottomed out a few inches above the ground)

-I believe this was my first time trying these (using Smith) and I really enjoyed them.

Lol it was awful. I didn't plan on coming back down, but made the decision on the fly. Thanks man.

Damn Breezy that leg workout has a ton of volume... beastly numbers.. "Driven by Jack3d Advanced?"
Click to expand...

Thanks wasme. Yeah, I cranked the volume up a bit. If you only count what I considered working sets and look at leg press as one set, it's not too crazy haha.

Jack3d AF, VERSA-1, and PRIME were taken prior. The combo (+ Compound 20, which I ran out of yesterday, but will have more of tomorrow) has me feeling amazing lately. I had a busy morning and didn't use Jack3d AF until ~2.5 hours after eating, which seemed to give me some extra pep lol.

With all those you must be in gym got 2+hours.

I think it took about 2 hours, maybe a little less.
 
Made my leg session today look like cake. I did a very similar stance smith squat on my last leg day brother. Those things really make you hip-hinge! I wasn't doing anywhere near that weight!
 
Budman7811 said:
So you were taking prime, v20 and versa?
Click to expand...

I'm currently using PRIME, VERSA-1, and Compound 20 (didn't have C20 yesterday, but will have more this afternoon). I've been using Jack3d Adavanced for the last week as well.

SuperCissus, Gut Health, Modern BCAA+ Glycofuse, GlycoMyx, OxyELITE Protein, vitamin D, and OxyELITE Pro powder (1-2 times a week before fasted cardio on non-training days) make up the rest of my supplement lineup.

Edit: I'll be starting AP this afternoon. :thumbsup:

Yeah, placing your feet out in front of the bar keeps your shins perpendicular throughout the movement and really destroys the quads. Haha I was surprised that I could handle 4 plates at that point.
 
Adding in some AP eh?
Be careful, you'll get some wicked pumps in and out of the gym!

That and you might lean out more so you might need to up your calories

Still haven't used my jack3d af because I have an open tub of enhanced, hemavol, and conquer.

Nothing tops two scoops of enhanced, yet.

Two scoops of micro was up there but I feel like I need to use a whole tub of a pre before I can judge it

That's quite the stack. I'm currently doing Versa-1, Titanium, Pump x3. I'm adding in Prime and Alphamine Monday. I never have ran AP looks interesting tho. I'm surprised I haven't, I have some usplabs cred, I remember beta testing yellow gold in an unmarked baggie. I about vomited all over my work desk lol.

Yes sir. Haha I can't wait to finish up the 500g carb day with some AP. I've been pushing the calories/carbs already and will probably keep them the same for now. I'm thinking that AP will help me continue to add LBM without the small amount of fat that I'm seeing.

I wouldn't be able to hold off, but it's not a bad idea. I have a few pre-workout products with a good amount left that went bad (clumps/moisture issues).

Enhanced is great. That and Jack3d micro have been my go-to products, but Jack3d AF will be staying in the mix. I'd like to try High Volume at some point as well.

Yeah, its going great. This is my first time stacking PRIME with VERSA-1 and I'm feeling pretty beastly in the gym. Your lineup looks solid as well. If you get a log going definitely let me know. I'd recommend trying AP at some point; it's one of my favorite products. The OxyELITE Protein/AP deal would've been a great time to try it (sorry lol). AP is at NP for $18 either way. Lol I sadly never had the chance to experience the taste of Yellow Gold.
 
I just started taking those yellow AP capsules the other day. Stuff is working nicely.
