Me too I'm obsessed BUT I'll admit breezy is much more knowledgeable on the subject :-). He's the mad man who got me hooked.

I'm a barefoot lifting fool myself. Don't give a fukc what anyone thinks :-)

Better watch your feet I ain't scared I am aggressive! I was walking up stomping them or just thumping them to kill them by the end of it all.

That is too funny!

Curious to hear how you like your first MD Workout. The one I sent last night was the one I got from Breezy, I forwarded you the Reactive Pump one just now too.

I'm about to go do the same thing, and hope to God it's just a clogged filter so I don't have to tow it to a shop.
 
I absolutely FUKIN LOVE high intensity, short rest, muscle burning, vein popping, iron crushing gd lifting sessions. GVT was KILLING ME! Long ass boring rest periods. FUK THAT!

MD Day one was a great change of pace. Now I wont go any further then that regarding the effectiveness so far of the program. The increased weights and shorter rest periods are irregular to me now since Ive been on GVT for about six weeks so I cant honestly give an opinion yet.

That being said today was one of my best sessions in a long time. Im a high intensity guy and today worked out perfectly in that regard.

Rope Pushdowns ss Dumbbell Curls (2 second hold on pushdowns)
80x15 35'sx15
100x12 35'sx15
110x12 35'sx15

Dumbell Kickbacks (6 normal 6 palm up, the palm up is impossible to do with bigger dbs.......any suggestions here? Its just a shytty position IMO) ss Seated DB Curls (Palms up entire time) ss Bent Over Rope Extension (No rest between exerciese and about 30 seconds rest between kickbacks and extensions)

35's 6x6 35'sx8 90x12
35's 6x5 35'sx8 100x11
35's 6x6 35'sx8 100x11
35's 6x6 35'sx8 100x12

Standing BB Curl (3 second negative, going heavier next time) ss Dip Machine (3 second negative, could go heavier but the machine puts me in a bad position and kills my shoulder) ss Preacher Curl Machine (2 second hard contraction) no rest between exercises just moving straight through
60x8 270x8 75x8
60x8 270x8 80x7
60x8 270x8 80x7
60x8 270x8 80x7

Hanging leg raises
20
18
16

I had ordered these for my wife to give me for xmas (when Breezy mentioned they were 50% off). They came the other day, and she scooped them from me when I was paying the UPS brokerage fee. Last night she said you might as well just have this, as there is no sense wrapping it when you know what it is. Didn't have to tell me twice!
 
In honor of program changes I guess I'll give a couple teaser pics. Thirty minutes post gym.

Yes, mind you with the 20 bucks shipping and then 17 at the door from UPS... I paid full price lol.

Looking swole. Glad to see you so excited with your first MD session. Mine will be this weekend if not sooner!

Wouldn't say it was so much the MD as much as it was too just throw some serious fukin weight around with high intensity.

I liked day one though.
 
breezy11 any suggestion on the Palm up kickbacks? I've done then with the top of my hand facing the ceiling at the top of contraction but palm up at the top is damn near impossible.
 
Man if you got all 6 on the palms up kickbacks at 35 you Sir are a baaadddd man! Question are you stopping the weight at the bottom at the 90 degree then going back up or allowing some forward movement? The biggest difference you will ever make on a kickback is to not allow any forward movement once your forearm is perpendicular to the floor. I always see guys letting the DB go forward and using the returning momentum to start the kick back. Definitely not the way to go about this exercise. It is one that heavier weight is not the goal because you have already shortened the muscle making it work twice as hard without having any stretch to spring off of.

Arms look great by the way!

Nice session bud. I hated the rests that cane with GVT myself.

I saw that. I'm glad she gave in. I'm jealous totally missed when they were on sale. I'm going to pick some up regardless. I get a decent bonus at work. I need knee wraps, wrist wraps a belt and this band set. Oh yeah and some goddamn max pump. Didn't realize I cracked my last one today.
 
I have Titan Knee Sleeves on the way and the Band set I plan to get some Inzer Elbow sleeves later.

No forward momentum no. Dead stop at the bottom with a 90 degree bend. The dumbbells are not clearing my sides though when I keep my arm against my body. Tried holding the inside of the dumbbell closest to my body but the weight twisted my tiny wrists all to shyt. So I had to flare the elbow out some and that made me lose all tension on the intended muscle groups. I might have to do these with a cable handle.......

Yeah, pronated kickbacks are pretty awkward at first. I'd just use less weight (20-25lbs is usually what I stick with). You can bring your arms out away from your sides a little, as shown in the video. Bending over at a 90 degree angle helps as well. You'll get a solid contraction once you get the hang of them.

The elbows out a little arent too bad just keeping the elbow elevated high enough is the real kicker. Even 25s had me failing.

Was thinking of going with sleeves instead of wraps to start actually
Click to expand...
If you plan to PL raw then get sleeves not wraps. No use in getting used to wraps then moving to a sleeve. Totally different feel a sleeve offers support and a wrap offers spring.

No big deal. If you want to see the twists he puts on exercises sub to his youtube channel mountaindog1
 
Cables are the way to go.


He can squat in wraps in raw modern. Can't squat in sleeves ever. Also for two completely different things like you said, anyways. Get the one you need.
 
GVT has long rests?

The program calls for ninety seconds rest periods between super sets. If you are going all out you most likely need all of those seconds lol. Nit saying you weren't going all out Simon :)

Well it doesn't when I do it. But we are supposed to take time at the end of each superset.

The original was a modified superset with 45 seconds between each exercise for a total of 90 seconds rest plus time to do the set for each body part. This one on shredded is just not quite the same. I really think they tried to make it easier to attract more people to the workout.

Can you divulge where your cals are currently sitting ?

I been in roughly same spot all along, maybe dropping/adding here & there for a brief time, but overall fairly consistent ~4800-5k on WO days/4400-4500 on rest days

Damn, your body is incredibly efficient to utilize all those calories and keep such an appearance.
