Stephen's Energizer Bunny Log

Nice bench session man.

My chest has gotten smaller the more I focus on bench and the less I focus on pecs (flys etc). Kinda funny. I have a massive chest but lack the arms/tris to put it to use.
 
OOOOOO and cardio

Played about an hour of ultimate frisbees with my friends, went to our old high school and played til the sun went down and then brought out the light up frisbee. really fun and it brought me back to when I played school ball

Lets do it! Haha. Actually my tris are growing like crazy now that I got smart. Still have longgggg arms though. Just more room for muscle right!?

New York was fantastic. Jammed a lot in the 4 days, but wasn't raced off my feet - thanks to the subway.

Saw Spiderman on Broadway (pretty cool), but the best was the 'nasty show' at the Comedy Cellar.. basically laughed till I cried for 2 hours... Can't wait to go back.

Where abouts in Texas do you live? My brother in law lives in Kingwood just outside of Houston.

How did the high volume treat you?

Very well, I had a painful pump at the end of those Hammerstrength lat pulls. I love that machine to begin with bc it forces you to arch your back and pin your shoulders to get a full motion.
 
wasme said:
Execution of that machine sounds great..

Yeah!

It's super simple just a straight bar and pivot really but since its front loaded is what really makes ya fight against it with that arc. It's glorious, too bad that gym is one big window and drains the strength right out of me. Or else I'd go more
 
Well, funds are low. I guess I am not going to be able to compete next month. Oh well, at the very least I know I can actually stick with a cut for an extended period of time.
 
Might just do a mock meet instead?

I don't know what that means honestly lol.

I just would have to pay for a membership/entry fee/and for the singlet on top of other gear. Maybe after I buy the new car to replace my truck I can try my hand at it again and just pay for everything up front so nothing surprises me last minute like this hahaha.

Go into the gym like normal, and do a trial meet, 3 squat attempts, 3 bench attempts, 3 deadlift attempts.

Mock meet is just doing all three for maxes in one day on your own.

3 attempts squat
3 attempts bench
3 attempts Deadlift
 
TheSaiyan said:
I could always do that. Sure it'd give me a good base idea of where I stand!

Do them each in order, warm up, take attempt 1, rest 10 minutes (typical time between attempts in a flight), attempt 2, attempt 3.

Rinse and repeat.

Thanks the timing was going to be my next question, I'll go to the gym with real power racks some time soon and see if I can get it on film and yall can white or red flag me haha
 
Been caught up looking for a new job. Only lifted Monday.

Calves were too tight to do what I planned. On top of being exhausted from cleaning out a storage unit in 96 degree heat around noon.

Cool thing is I found all my old favorites

Took a scoop of Karbolyn and now it's gym time. Staying away from flip flops and slippers til I am back to normal. I'm pretty sure it was those deficit deads I did. The plates we have aren't solid (the best ones for the movement obv) so that added strain on my arch was no bueno
