Doggcrap, myokem and ... a tyga?

On another note, I got back into town later than I wanted, so I got a late gym session in. Let me tell you, after sitting in meetings and training, and in a car for an hour and a half then going straight to the gym to lift, it's a struggle lol my hips and lower back were tight, and upper back sore.

This is exactly why I always make sure to NOT do back a day or even two before any trip longer then like 2hrs... too much pain and tightness from all that sitting.

I always hate getting in a plane or car after back or legs when I sit for a long while my legs go stupid and forget how to make work

Exactly. I did heavy deads the day before an 8hr vacation trip last year and was like writhing in pain and laying in the most awkward positions just to keep my back from being so numb and sore
 
Last week I did a massive chest workout (200 rep bench, etc) and then drove 3 hours to Phoenix. Kinda sucked when I'd try to change lanes and have a chest cramp! Lol.

Tyga, you're the bomb with the desserts, Bro!
 
You're killing me smalls. Gotta make weight tomorrow at 5 and can't eat anymore tonight....last meal was some almonds and 1.5 scoops of PES Select in 12oz water. And water is gonna be gone sauce tomorrow; I can't cut that out tonight because I can't risk charlie-horsing in my sleep from the DMZ and having super sore muscles saturday. Calf seized a night last week and woke up screaming and cursing; was limping the next day and sore for 3 days.

Haha, I was just thinking I am ready to go on a day long binge!! Crispy Creme donuts, french fries, pizza and beer!!! But then, like you, I would feel it haha. Even though I am still on a bulk I am eating pretty clean with only a cheat 1 to 2 times a week. Figured if I can hit 4000cals on a clean bulk, I dont need to cheat ;)

No cardio tonight, I started feeling nauseous towards the end of my board presses and it continued until I got home. So, instead of reaching vomitville mid cardio I called it a night, hung the gloves up and came home.

I still haven't gotten "acclimated" to NITRAMINE. The pumps I get are great, the sweating is a little less intense since I'm using a different version.

You make it look so easy! :D awesome work!
 
That depth on squats, yo!

As for the pressing - I know a lot of guys press w/ a "C" pattern, but have you ever tried pressing straight up? I know both schools of thought have their strongpoints, but just wondering. I try to press straight up. My bench sucks, so take that with a grain of salt. Also, is it me or is your wrist drifting a bit behind your elbow in both those pressing vids? If so, try to adjust. Elbows are definitely where you want them to be, they barely get below the torso at all.

Those pulls were fast and strong. Try to keep the hips from rising to start the bar and instead driving through the heels. That was something that took a long time for me to shake, but my back thanked me for it. Noticed that on the 2nd pull.
 
They drift maybe 1/4in, that's because I press in a "C" like you pointed out 8) . Straight up and down is no Bueno for me. I don't want to adjust because I'm progressing pretty well, just have to fix that weak/sticking point (which the two board should do, as well a 1/4 pauses CGBP). Probably some front delt work is in order as well..

Have you decided whether you were going to do the one in February/January? It'd be dope if you did, you could meet quite a bit of people from my gym.
 
I was trying to bench in a C yesterday but it didn't work well for me. :(
 
Looking awesome and strong lifts Tyga!
 
Today's and off day.

Do some foam rolling for the quads, IT, hams and calves. Will lacrosse ball my glutes as well.

Side note. God is good.

We've constantly been blessed with minor things. And we've always been consistent with our tithes and have NEVER not tithed even when we knew money was sparse. As of this week I've gotten a $5k raise to my salary and the wife got a raise recently as well! Yesterday, my wife tells me our balance at our hospital was $600 (wife's medical junk), but it shows its paid off. Neither of us paid it, and no one in either of our immediate families did either. Again, a blessing in disguise!

Anyways, be easy! I won't be working out again until Monday. My Saturday session will get skipped because im in my buddies wedding.

I hadn't even given it a consideration, but perhaps I will now that you mention it. Gonna start another Cube Kingpin cycle next week I'm thinking - I really enjoy the 1x/wk frequency; it keeps me excited for each lift without fearing it, and the rotation of effort style. Totally modifying my accessories though, and only guaranteeing I stick w/ them for at least 4wks at a time. This time focusing more on total volume than intensity, raising conditioning some, and keeping workouts under 90 min since I'll be off peds. That will take me to the new year, which depending on meet date would hopefully give me 3-6wks to move into a strength peaking cycle. I can't really expect noteworthy PR's, but perhaps try to achieve a near similar total off any hormones would still be a huge success.

Very glad to hear the Lord has blessed you both so wonderfully - I'm not surprised, and I know you two aren't either. None of us are entitled to anything in this life, but goodness never goes unseen.

That's Awesome!! I love it when He blesses us like that.
 
Sorry for the lack of posting! Been very busy this past weekend. One of my best friends got married, and between kicking it and all the junk I consumed lol I've been lazy with posting! However, I did get a workout in Saturday morning before the wedding and today

RTS
Weight 143

This weeks rep scheme for competition lifts are "3's"

Comp squat
265x3 @8.5 (was a nine last time)
250x3 @9 (6% drop back off set)

Addition bb crap
Leg press
90x10x2 tempo 8-2-0 (this was stupid hard lol)


Comp bench
230x3 @8.5 (conservative) this was a nine last time
215x3 6% back off sets
215x3 @8.5 called it here. My next set would have been a nine but, since the rotation has chest and legs so offer in the program I'm cutting sets short.

Feet up db bench

80x9
80x9
45x10 tempo 1-0-0

Additional bb crap
Face pulls 3 sets
Rear delt fly (db) 3 sets

So far so good. Progression is subtle but there.

Current supplement stack

NITRAMINE
TMG (2g) in the am w/my coffee
Fish oil 3g daily
Psyllium husk 3g daily
VIt c 1g pre workout
Joint supplement
Creatine mono 5g pre workout
Melatonin 3g pre bed

Natty gainz.

Oh, and I may cut my carbs back starting next week to 150-200g daily and upping my fats for a month or so.
 
Tonight went well. Progression is moving forward again, which I'm stoked about.

Dilemma, should I up my kcals, and keep cardio the same OR stay at maintenance, keep cardio in and work towards "insulin" priming and then up the kcals? Thoughts?

Insulin Priming!!! If things are slowing, prime. Buuut of BF seems in check and pump and waistline are taking a hit. You may be fine, I just error on the side of caution myself.

Especially with your powerlifting-ish workouts. You're need for a lot of carbs is diminished and will suite you well

-Ish? He's using RTS....so that's pretty much as powerlifting as it gets lol

Thanks bro.

If I drop to maintenance and reduce carbs would you recommend increasing fats?
