Turff49 Quest for Success

46 minutes! Brutal! Super beast!
 
Way to crush it!
 
impressive numbers moved in such a short time.
 
Busy life right now has me squeezing my workouts in. Shoulder morning went like this

HS OHP
110 x 20
160 x 12
200 x 10
250 x 5
270 x 5 think I'm losing a little as the 5th rep was a chore.

Then 1 rep with 380 and hold up for 45 seconds

Rear felt machine
120 x 10
120 x 10
120 x 10
120 x 10

Might be losing a little but could also just be you were limited on time and shortened your rest periods allowing for more accumulative fatigue to set in.

Those BB shrugs! Geez! Life gets in the way but that is how the mind says you need rest and recuperation! Besides, you kill every lifting session!
 
Solid shoulder and back work Brian.
 
Had to work today but managed to get a quick chest workout in when I got home.

Incline DB flyes pause reps(oh my these are tough)
50 x 10 x 4 sets

Incline DB press
80 x 10 x 4

And I'm spent! Chest is fried. Wanted to do landmines but wasn't happening...
 
Ah, the benefit of having stuff at home.
 
Yeah, I wouldn't have made the gym. I was hot and sweaty and just worked out in my work clothes. Don't think the gym would've been happy with me in dirty jeans and steel toe boots on...lol

There're some guys that come in early during the week in jeans and boots. I assume they're shooting in before work, but they only workout back and arms. Every day.
 
Missed so much in here! Sorry for the absence...I am so sorry to hear about your loss! That's horrible!...great about your son! You definitely made an impact!!

You're steady busting out the workouts despite all you have going on!! True inspiration!!

We have guys in the early AM with the boots/jeans on as well! Don't guess it matters if it works for you!

Agree. I'm sorry as well. :( And definitely a true inspiration. :)
 
I think I found my new bench for outside use. Can handle up to 1000lbs and I need not worry about weather.

that's a cool idea! Wouldn't have thought it could hold that much weight though. That's really good.

That is pretty cool and can double for a step up box or box squats box. Nice and like you said perfect for outdoors!
 
Not a bad price too.
 
Got a little arm workout in this morning. Mentally I've just not been in it lately. I think my desk job has made me a little lazy but more mentally drained everyday...

Anyway:
Ez bar curls
75 x 10 X 2
85 x 10 x 2
95 x 10 x 2
105 x 10 x 2
115 x 5

Skull crushers
75 x 10 x 2
85 x 10 x 2
95 x 10 x 2
105 x 10 x 2
115 x 10 x 2

The x 2 was 1 each of narrow and wide grip.
I need to start my cardio back up too as I was winded on several of these sets although it was humid as heck outside this morning. Maybe that contributed...
 
Looks like PUMP CITY to me!
 
Yeah, decent pump but still not tight like they usually are. Been slacking a little on my diet and holding some water. The protein orange velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting didn't last long. Wife knows my weak spots and she's sabotaging my gains...lol!
 
I'm with you on the cardio. Need to include it myself.
 
It's the weather change and the airborne stuff! It's NOT lack of motivation because you all are the Kings of motivation. Rest, recover and get yo arse to the gym!

Started my cardio last night. 20 minutes on the bike! My 100 push-ups a day are still going ok. Although I sound like Rice Krispies doing them. My joints are snap, crackle, popping...
 
I was shocked the other day had to do 100 push ups as fast as possible and I managed to get all of them done in 55.37 seconds with no breaks!
 
Cardio and push-ups yesterday. Today was going to be legs but when I got to the gym I couldn't get in. Either my card isn't working or my membership expired, although I show it not being due until the end of the month.
So I went home and in between rain showers knocked out my back!

One arm barbell rows superset with Meadows
Did have a few short breaks between the latter sets though...

One arm
45 x 10
70 x 10
95 x 10
105 x 10
115 x 10
125 x 10

Meadows
45 x 10
70 x 10
95 x 10
105 x 10
115 x 10
125 x 10

Rain started so inside to finish up...

Then knocked out my 100 push-ups 50, 30, 20
Then 10 push-ups pause reps - pause for 5 seconds in the down.

And then 20 minutes on the bike.

This rain has been unreal and it's not going to end until late Monday...
 
Huge rowing Brian.
 
Lol. I thought "Oh NO! He knocked out his back again!" Then I read the workout log. Lol.

100 push-ups a day! Yes! Infected you guys with it!!
 
100 a day huh? Ok .... the infection may spread out west now. Think I may start doing this too ;)
 
Those are killer alone much less superset together!! Then you threw 100 push-ups in top of it all! Niiice!! I don't think I could make it through 100 push-ups.

It's 100 a day for 100 days. Something that Mark said do so why not! I'm on day 8 only 92 more days to go...lol

Yeah, the rain is getting bad here now. Street and yards are flooded. I can see the intercostal from my house and it's up to the top. Should be a fun couple days...

Oh yikes! That's a bit more intense than o thought!

Flooding is getting really bad all around from what I hear and see! Are you safe at your house though?
 
Yep. House didn't flood during Hugo or Floyd so I'm good...lol
 
That's good! Glad you're safe!
 
How're things?
 
Things were hectic this past weekend and the past couple days. Just no time really. My area has settled and no flooding where I'm at so we are good. Some friends weren't so fortunate though, even just a couple houses away from me.
