Thanks man! If I hadn't done so many reps on the lighter weights then I'm sure 315 would've been there. I started to load 315 after the 295 and should've. I second guessed myself which I know better than to do. Next week...
 
Wow!!!! You look amazing! A total dilf!!!! :)

Lol. Dude, you slammed out 50 DL's. Drop those first 4 sets down to 3-5 and you had 315x3-5, at least.
 
Crazy DL volume! Strong brother!!

Yep, I think if I drop the 185 and go lower volume from 225 on up then it should be easier. I was pretty tight when I started but I think I just like volume. lol
 
Day 115 - SHOULDERS

Just another day...same ole routine with PWO and then off to gym. Still feeling the 2 a days from yesterday. But, as always, once we start pushing weight the day gets better!

HS OHP
90 x 20 to get blood flowing
140 x 15
180 x 10
230 x 8
250 x 5
Tried 270 but hit a sticking point about 1/3rd up. Maybe next week I go 260...

Destroyers
30 x 20
35 x 20
40 x 18
45 x 15
50 x 15
55 x 12
It had been awhile since I did these so wanted to shock the muscles and they were burning!

Side laterals SS with front laterals. Do one set sides then straight into fronts with no rest. No pause on these this time.
20 x 10 / 20 x 10
20 x 10 / 20 x 10
25 x 10 / 25 x 10
25 x 10 / 25 x 10

And that was it! I was fried...
 
Is that one destroyer set? Holy ****...

Yep, and then the standing lateral super sets. My delts actually hurt right now. If I had time I'd do an ice bath.
 
Sh*t! My delts hurt right now just from reading this. Strong workout!

Oh Man Turf this workout looks amazeballs. I used to do T-Cups a lot you know alternating from side raise directly to a front raise without ever going into the lower 1/3 of the ROM in order to keep constant tension so it looks like you are making to T Cups with your arms. Talk about setting the delts on fire!!!!!
 
That was a delt builder! SMHS
 
BACK day

Decided to drop the numbers on what day as it really is irrelevant now...

Decided to go easy on back today as last week was heavy. Last dose of Clen was Wednesday.

Short workout with moderate weight compared to last week but higher reps and less rest. My back is feeling it...
 
Looks like this workout must have felt really good. I love a good get the blood flowing kind of workout after doing a heavier one the time before.

It definitely helps. Been seeing some good increases doing this and since I'm going into my bulk and will add a few more lbs I expect to see some new size and gains doing this.
 
Leg day from hell! Today was a not go heavy day. I felt strong going into the gym so I figured I'd go moderate on weight, add some super sets in, and play with foot placement. I wish I had just gone heavy...

Hack squat SS with chin-ups
Normal stance is narrow so I went wider on these
150 x 15 / BW x 15
240 x 15 / BW x 15
330 x 15 / BW x 15
420 x 15 / BW x 15

Leg press SS with preacher curls
Leg press is normally shoulder width so I went wide
170 x 15 / 65 x 20
260 x 15 / 65 x 20
350 x 15 / 65 x 20
440 x 15 / 65 x 30
530 x 15 / 65 x 30
Drop sets no rest but to remove plates
530 x 10
440 x 10
350 x 10
260 x 10
170 x 10
I was huff and puffing and sweating my *ss off.

3 minute break before next exercise

Leg extensions
90 x 15
110 x 15
135 x 25
165 x 15
165 x 15 quads were on fire!!

Seated leg curls
90 x 15
110 x 15
135 x 15
165 x 15

And I was spent. Walking like one of those zombies in TWD. I think I enjoy heavy day much better than this...
I went in feeling strong and left whimpering like a lost puppy...lol

Damn dude!!

Those are some serious numbers!!
 
Thanks Tag. I've been pushing to get my numbers up there. My Hacks have really increased over the past few months. Hoping to get the leg press into the 800's soon too.
Going to try and work front squats in this evening.
 
Dang Turff! I swear your lifts are just insane!!!!
 
Thanks Simon.

No front squats this evening. My legs are still a little sore as are the hips. So, did some cardio. Will hit the fronts later this week.
 
Moderate weight my butt...
 
Awesome work Turf!!! Yeah nothing like increasing mitochondria to add a little size in between the heavy stuff!
 
The infamous CHEST day

Everyone loves chest day right? Changed up a couple things today. First no DB presses per se but did some db "chest" presses...

Forgot my water and amino's, left them on the table at home so that sucked!!!

HS incline press
90 x 12
140 x 12
180 x 12
220 x 6

HS chest press wide grip SS with chest dips
90 x 12 / BW x 20
180 x 12 / BW x 20
230 x 12 / BW x 20
270 x 12 / BW x 20
300 x 6 / BW x 20
Apparently someone stole the dip belt as it couldn't be found in the gym, along with several other items...

Now here is where I decided to experiment...
Low incline DB flies straight into hex presses
40 x 10 / 40 x 10
45 x 10 / 45 x 10
40 x 10 / 40 x 10
40 x 10 / 40 x 7

These were humbling. Once I did the 45's I knew I needed to drop back down. My last set my right arm just gave out at rep 8, couldn't push it past 3/4...

So, leave gym, drive home(6 minutes), and do some incline BB pressing
135 x 10
185 x 10
225 x 5
185 x 8
And my chest, front delts, tris, and upper back are all feeling it. Cals are at 2800 and weight holding at 189. Will continue to increase cals over the next couple weeks. Should level out around 3700-4000. I hope that's it as it gets expensive eating that much and takes time to consume that much.
 
Killed it Turff. Imma try those flies-to-hex presses. I def won't start that heavy though...

Looks like a good workout.. will you slowly bump the cals? what is your ceiling?
Click to expand...
Yeah, bumping them at 200-250 every 5-7 days. I'm think around 3700-4000 Cals is where I'll stop but I'm playing it by ear. I really don't change up my diet too much, just larger portions. A little pasta sometimes, and a dessert every now and then(holidays).
Hoping to be at 200 after my next cut which will be in March. That would be a true 10lbs of LBM.
