Awesome arm day bro! Snow looks nice,but i think its time to stop that stuff.

We will see if CTFletcher's no such thing as over training is true. Will report on the DOMS in a few days.

He snow is melting quickly. I think it's going to be gone in a couple days!

Melting is much better than shoveling. Did you scream at your arms and COMMAND THEM TO GROW?!
 
Oh yeah, the snow gets old after a bit.
Nice arm workout bro.
I'm not sure I agree with no such thing as overtraining. There has to be a method, but I think that with certain workout plans, one could perhaps overtrain.

Oh I agree that certain training regiments can result in over training. Will see what happens with my CTFletcher experiment. Thanks for being in my log BTW.
 
Damn! That's a sick bicep routine, nice job. I'll be stealing that one
Thanks Pete. I've been researching his bicep workout and I think I'm close. Steal away brother.

Low carb day yesterday and I felt a strength drop this morning. Without Ferox I'm not sure if I would have powered through.

Today I didn't have as much "drive" as I needed. Can you tell when Ferox kicked in when reading below?

DQ: You don't need it all figured out to move forward!

DOMS from my CTFletcher bicep workout is really not bad at all. I feel the bicep soreness and this is rare. Trying to define the inner chest so ....

Good lifting all.
 
Thats nice volume. Do you always do rev grip?
Thanks Wicked. Actually, just started incorporating reverse grip. It's easier on my shoulders and I'm trying to target the inner chest.

I use rev grip for shoulder probs as well.
I agree with wayne also ,WEIGHTED DIPS!
Close grip palms in push ups on a set of db.

Still using Ferox at 3/4 scoop and feeling the analgesic effect. This tub is going to last a long freakin time!

Good lifting all. I'm back to the rental condo to finish up getting it ready to show.
 
Nice lifts, and good luck with that rental. I had quite a few in the past and got way over my head way too fast. Hope you get a great perma-tenant.

Thanks brother. Only 1 rental and being a condo I only have to worry about the inside. A perma-tenant would be great, as long as they're a clean and respectful one!

Felt stronger today as I see that the weather is breaking and it's going to be 50 today! Waahoo!
 
Those BB rollouts are killer! I want to get one of those ab wheels they sell on TV that have that fat wheel

Yes they kill the abs and even make the back stronger. I have the ab wheel that has a single 4 inch diameter wheel. If you roll to left then middle then right you work even more sections of the abs.

Legs today but only had an hour. Ferox still at 3/4 scoop and feeling clean energy.

Dialing in the carbs has made a difference in my stomach bloat issue.

Good lifting all.
 
It's amazing how quickly you notice results in the abdomen area when getting carbs down right. Diet has always been my downfall. I'll do great for a few days and then slip for a few. I really need to get my diet right consistently and think I would have good results.

I have trouble with this as well sometimes
 
Glad to hear you're nailing down the bloat issue. Like everyone else said, I struggle with it too.

Way to pound out those PR's!!
 
Thanks everyone! Your encouragement really helps!
