Montego an Snagency tag-team with FINAFLEX in the corner

Dr said I have a severe sinus infection and I'm getting over the flu. Albuterol breathing treatments and antibiotics. Off to give blood for hrt.
 
you like that 40# don't you.. I was hoping it would be closer to 50 by now, but oh well I'm still a growing boy, phase II coming soon....
It was a quick 40 and it doesn't appear to have been much fluff. We'll see what this phase II is all about. I see that it already involves more pictures...

I heard albuterol boosts t levels.
 
Hit up Jason's deli before the blood draw. Salad bar with 8oz grilled chicken breast, bell peppers, two boiled eggs, low fat cheese, pickles, and fat free French dressing.

Pretty good salad and I haven't had one in forever so I'm happy with it.

a lil postWO meal recovery today..
~11oz angus eye of round + a bowl of raisin bran in almond/coconut milk
(two scoops of raisins really are the reason that stuff is so pleasin)
 
Another day of me and my nebulizer. Stuff makes me cough a lot lol.
 
Hope the road to recovery is fast for ya man. Being sick blows.

You got that right. I'm out of the gym but I'm not really "recovering" either. I guess some kind of a break is better then none though.
 
I actually find that when I take medication for being sick, I am sick for a longer period.

Now, I just sleep, do no supps, eat some broth and have coconut oil and that seems to work well.

Rest up Montana
 
No Mohawk = no fun

Looking thick there dood!
thanks bud..yeah I had an appt with one of my insurance clients this morning, no-can-do on da Mohawk
since I specialize in the senior market and most of my clients are 65+, I have found that things such as mohawks are not real conducive to gaining their trust -- even with my shining personality, such is tough hurdle to overcome :D

Snags casually having a big ass arm just chillin out
ahaa, appreciate that
I've noticed some really good gains over the last week or so, as intensity has picked up and I tweaked diet a little bit, upping cals and shuffling around macros somewhat .... I feel really good!



if you do not like my turkey breast sandwich w/ mayo on rye, you can at least appreciate my 6oz angus round
(not pictured: a chunk of broccoli, steamed)
love me some steak for postworkout grubbin!

Yum. I haven't had rye bread in a minute. Good stuff.
 
Looking huge Steve. I am sure you have all those 65+ ladies wrapped around your finger ;)

Angus steak = music to my ears...
 
Quick update! Sinuses are still screwed but seem to be getting better. The cough isn't nearly as bad as a couple days ago though. Nebulizer is knocking it out pretty fast I suppose.

Also I'll be starting my lean gaining fun come Monday after I hit up the grocery store and get everything I'll need.

Very excited to start getting a bit more food finally!
 
Just got all caught up, sorry to hear about the sickness Montana! Never a good thing! And Steve loving the food porn!!

I get it totally. I'm tatted and forced to wear sleeves at work. I still dig the hawk though :-)
Shining personality for sure

Going to get fun brosif. Glad you're on the mend.
 
lol...it's a yogi berra-ism, one of my favorites
another one he had that kills me: (talking about this popular restaurant in NY back in the day)
"nobody goes there anymore - it's too crowded"

doh
 
Um

So half the time. 90% the time? Is that like sex panther calogone. Works 70% of the time every time?

It works 60% of the time, every time.

That just makes no sense.

"What smells like bigfoots d!ck"?

You get back in the gym today Monte or just checking things out at home? Looking good by the way!
 
87% of statistics are made up anyway. And the ones that aren't, don't really matter.

I havent posted any of my workouts lately so Ill throw those up real quick.

Chest – 14 sets & Shoulders – 12 sets week 6:
Flat Dumbbell Press – We are going to pyramid these this week. After a couple of warm up sets, do a hard set of 12, then go up and do 10, then 8, then 6, ok. So 4 total sets. You don’t have to lock these out. Take them to ¾ lockout and come right back down. Keep continuous tension on your pecs. Do get a good stretch at the bottom also! 4 total work sets.
40x10
80x10
110x12
110x10
110x8
120x6

Incline barbell press – I want an old school 5 sets of 5 done after 1 set to get the feel of the movement. I want continuous tension on these, too—no locking out, just go to ¾ lockout. Lower the bar to about 1-inch above your chest, ok. 5 total work sets.
205x5
205x5
205x5
205x5
205x5

Barbell bench press –3 sets of 15 on these and again no lockout. This one is going to set your chest on fire. 3 total work sets.
185x15
185x13
185x12

Pec minor dips – Do 2 sets of dips to failure. These are the dips where you keep your arms straight and just lower your body and flex your chest to bring yourself back up. If you need a refresher on form, check out my website or YouTube channel. 2 total work sets.
Did 3 sets to failure instead of 2 cause these felt great.

160x15
160x15
160x14
160x14

One arm leaning side laterals – This is where you hang onto a pole or something stable and upright, leaning your body away from it. With the non-support arm, perform a side lateral. Take the weight above ear level. Do all your reps on one side, then switch and do the other. These are brutal if you do them right. Again, get the dumbbell up above ear level. I want 4 sets of 15 with each arm. 4 total work sets.
20x15x15
20x15x15
20x15x15
20x14x14

Barbell over and backs – I want 3 sets of 10. If you need a refresher on form check my YouTube video or website for video. 3 total work sets.
3 sets of 10

Hang and swing destroyer set – So for your last set of the day, grab some moderately heavy dumbbells and lay face down on an incline utility bench. Do 60 swings, and cut weight in half and do 30 reps. Now stand up and do 10 reps of banded rear lateral pulls. There is video of this on my website and YouTube channel also. 1 total work set.
45x60

Cable low rows – Nothing fancy here, just do 4 sets of 10 low cable rows. On each rep, lean forward and stretch lats out, then drive weight back with your elbows (you should be sitting up straight when you have weight pulled back). 4 total work sets.
175x10
200x10
215x10
215x19
215x9

Dumbbell pullovers – These are to be done in the style where you lay on the bench—not across it. You hang your head off the end of the bench and slowly work into a nice stretch. Only bring the dumbbell back to the top of your forehead. Do 3 sets of 10 reps. 3 total work sets.
60x10

230x6
250x6
250x6
270x6
270x6
270x6

Decline lying extension – On these, I laid down an incline sit up bench close to flat (same low angle I use for smith machine decline presses – you know, the small angle), and lay back and do lying extensions. These should feel great at this point, as your elbows are juiced up and triceps pumped. Rest 60 seconds between sets on these. 4 sets of 15 reps. 4 total work sets.
60x15
60x15
60x14+1
60x12+3

Seated dumbbell curls – I want you to do these leaning back a tad on something. The way I do these is to sit in a preacher curl facing out. Your body is naturally sitting back some. Place your elbows against the pad behind you so they can’t move. You can curl very strictly like this. Do 3 sets of 10. It should burn like fire. You can supinate as you come up. 4 total work sets.
35x10
35x10
35x9+1

Machine preacher curls - 4 sets of 15. Find a weight you can do for 15 reps, then do 4 sets with it, only resting 45 seconds between sets. Let’s load your bi’s up with blood. 4 total work sets.

30x10
35x10
35x10
 
Nice work didn't realize you were lifting with the breathing treatments and everything.... I was gonna see if you wanted to hit the weights today until I hadn't seen any lifting updates. Getting ready to head in now.
 
Looks like I'm through the sickness finally! Still a bit congested but nothing crazy, so it's back on the grind.

Went grocery shopping yesterday and stocked up on my goodies. Saturday night I went out with my wife for he friends birthday and we had a good time. Even though we were out with a party we spent much of the time together talking about the past year and what's in store for its this year.

On my way to child support court this morning then it's back home for legs destruction. I started a bit of a stim break the past week......not total abstinence but cut out about 3/4 normal intake. Right now it's two PX Black in the morning and one scoop of Ignite2 before workouts. Might reduce father in time.

Took my first dose of Ignite 2 this morning and I'm pretty much in love.
 
Good to hear you are feeling better brother! Excellent on lowering the stims too! So what changes you gonna be making here increasing carbs slowly until you peak out on them?
 
Yay Montana isn't sick now we get to see big weights being smashed in here again

Well I've been moving some decent weight but it should start to go up some now. Even being "off" my strength should start going up with the extra calories and adding in a bit of extra time off.

Grow time baby!
