Turff49 Quest for Success

Solid pressing despite the shoulder aches.

I think I might have to try clen.
 
Taking 2 rest days together. Give all the muscles time to heal. It was just Arm day anyway so I can work some bi's in with back and Tri's in with chest later this week. Still doing my cardio on these rest days though!

Strong HS OHP. I almost added those in but didn't have anything left in me.

I assume you track yours with total weight instead of weight per side...lol

Haha. Yeah, that's weight per side lol!! I'd have hulk shoulders if I could do that!
 
Your shoulder strength is just crazy!!! 20's on front raises with a hold...after those OHP too!!! Wow!!
 
Super jealous of your OHP! Rear delts must be growing large brother!
 
Day 110 - BACK

YESTERDAY WAS CARDIO/rest day so I woke up refreshed this morning. Did my usuals prior to going to the gym and weight was down another pound. More details later on that.

HS ISO lateral rows
90 x 20
180 x 16

One arm BB rows
70 x 12
90 x 12
115 x 10
135 x 8 - these surprised me since it was at the end of the work out

As for my weight. At 2200 Cals I didn't lose any weight. At 2500-2600 I'm losing weight. Based off of my notes I'll lose weight up to about 3000 Cals. At 2200 my body must be starving and storing everything. 2500- 3000 and the body is in a slight deficit to maintenance. 3000-3500 is my maintenance range apparently and above 3500 is where I will need to be for gains. I need to get one of those fitbits and see how many calories it shows I'm burning in a regular day and see how close it is to my notes. The only calls show my maintenance at 25-2600.
 
Strong lifts! Wow! Check out Microsoft's workout band. It has built in pulse detection that will give true calories expended.
 
That back session was killer!

SHoulder workout looked like a painful pump! Keep on killing it turff49!!!

Ok, my quads are shot... Much better workout than I expected. Strength continues to increase, down another lb, so the bf must be dropping. Veins are really starting to pop too.
Cals yesterday were at 2567. 44%p/ 20f/ 36c.

May work my Sumo deadlifts and front squats in this evening.
 
Slaying that iron! Heavy lifts. How are the two-a-day sessions feeling?

Beasting it Turff!!! Always impressed!!

Yea, life got kind of crazy for a bit, had to get some things in order.. Back to it again now..

130"s are nice! 150"s would be killer..
 
I can't believe you had any left for fronts. You're an animal.

Typically don't take my phone into the gym. Anything in particular you're wanting to see?

Sometimes I wonder where I get it. I think it's the challenge that drives me.

Great to have you back man! Yeah, those "life" things get in the way sometimes.

Niiice!!
 
All your pressing was strong. Starting off with those high rep DBs are going to take quite a bit out of your normal house-moving HS presses... Lol

Looking forward to your public noods.

Not that the private ones are that bad...
 
Here is a quick pic I took. More to come when the wife can snap them.

For some reason I can only do 1 pic at a time so here is another one I snapped.
