Squats, 3 x 135 x 20
SL Deadlifts, 1 x 135 x 20, 1 x 185 x 12. 1 x 235 x 10
Leg Press Machine, 1 x 270 x 12, 1 x 360 x 10

I hope I get over this damned cold soon. I am tired of panting for 3 - 5 minutes after each set. This workout took me over an hour. It was only 8 sets.

I hope you get well soon, also!

Little B has the crud and it's final exam week. Luckily, today is his last day of torture and then he's free until January 5th.

Your workouts are looking great!

but my wife was bugging me all morning to do things, so I went to the gym to get some peace.

Treadmill, 1.75 miles in 30 minutes. (I changed the machine to get my heart rate up for a couple of minutes and it went wild. It said my heart rate was only 62 bpm and it cranked up the incline to the max. My heart was pounding but it thought my heat had stopped.

I did a reset and finished my brisk walk. )

Stability ball, I did 3 sets of crunches, 3 sets of bridges holding for 60 seconds and 3 sets of cobras.
Bench leg raises, 2 sets of leg raises for 20 reps
Oblique machine, I did 2 sets of 20 reps at 70 lbs.
Cable chops, 2 sets of 40 lbs x 20
Cable reverse chops, 2 sets of 40 lbs x 20
Cable neutral chops, 2 sets of 40 lbs x 20

I was looking pale so I hit the tanning booth for 10 minutes.

I am into working my core right now. Not bad for a day off. (I am feeling much better.)

Tomorrow is Chest, shoulders and tricep Day. Sometime during the next day or so I am going to break through 190 lbs. A few people mentioned that I am looking slimmer. Hahahah slim at 191 lbs. It is all good.

Thank you RoboMod! Keeping my logs and hopefully setting a good example to others, that is what keeps me on my up and up. My best recipes come when I am bulking.

Soon.

I can't wait............soon to be gaining some mass myself. I can always use some new recipes!

but the driving was ugly. The roads were really slick with ice this afternoon. I stayed home today. It is supposed to be warmer tomorrow, so that may be my make-up day.

Chest, Shoulders and Triceps

DB Flat Bench, 1 x 50s x 20, 1 x 55s x 20, 2 x 60 x 10
Inclined Flyes, 2 x 35s x 20
Pec Deck 2 x 50 x 20
DBs for shoulders, various
Upright Rows, 2 x 65 x 20, very slow
Cable work for shoulders, various
Triceps pushdowns, 2 x 45 x 20
Triceps ropepulls, 2 x 40 x 20

I did 30 minutes on the treadmill. I walked most of the time, but did several 1 minute jogs. I want to increase my lung capacity so that I can jog again. (I am an ex-smoker.) I am not sure I will be able to do it, but it is worth the effort.

Tomorrow I begin moderate reps (6-10) and heavier weight. I still want to lose 4 more lbs, then I can begin a bulk cycle.
