Threw a little arms in with legs since we didn't do an arms day this week due to christmas. Next week we will have to find somewhere to fit a little arms in because my gym is closed on monday(new years day). Workout felt good. All of my lifts went up.

i am fat(er) after I eat carbs haha

ja_ke · 12-29-2006, 07:20 PM

Yeah.. I have been going up with all of my lifts on pretty much just post workout carbs. Maybe one other meal with carbs depending. But I haven't been craving them and my workouts haven't been suffering so I guess I'm not going to worry about it.

sun dec 31

seated millitary press: 115x 3, 135x 3, 155x 3, 165x 1
hammer millitary press: 230x 3, 3, 1
lateral raise: 25x 10, 10, 8
front raise 30x 10, 10, 10
hammer shrug(facing/back to/seated): 230x 10, 230x 10, 180x 10

Great workout, had a crazy pump. I was going to do chest, but I went with my bro instead of my workout partner and his chest was sore so we did shoulders. I guess I will be doing tues/back wed/chest thurs/legs fri/arms this week!

ja_ke · 01-02-2007, 04:01 PM

tues jan 2 weight: 183

wide overhand chins: bw+10x 3, bw+25x 3, bw+35x 3
deadlift: 135x 5, 225x 1, 275x 1, 315x 1, 365x 0
db row: 85x 3, 90x 3, 95x 3
hammer front lat pulldown: 180x 3, 5, 6
hammer low row: 180x 5, 5, 5

Pretty happy with my weight because right now I am just trying to get stronger without gaining too much weight in the form of fat. I can tell that I have been loosing fat which I am also happy about. I will probably keep my diet similar to what it is now until I stop moving up weight on my lifts. Another note: I should have used smaller weight increases on deadlifts heh.

ja_ke · 01-03-2007, 02:05 PM

wed jan 3

benchpress: 135x 5, 185x 3, 195x 3, 205x 1
hammer incline: 230x 5, 5, 4
dips: +45x 7, 4, 4
incline db press: 65x 5, 5, 5
incline fly: 40x 8, 8, 7

The workout felt great, I was sweating my ass off. Im kind of suprized that my incline db presses were that high still. I haven't done them in probably a year, and when I was doing them the most I got up to was 75(first exercise too).

Well I put up 255 a little over a week ago, but it seems that I can never do as much at the gym as I can at my house. I guess I just like my bench and bar more?

weigh your bar at home, it could be lighter. My sports authority bar = 35lbs. watch out!

ja_ke · 01-04-2007, 02:16 PM

It is a 45lb bar. My bench is just really padded compared to the rock hard benches there. I get like bruises on my back after benching there or broken blood vessels or something. Plus it makes me more nervous when im with my training partner because he isnt a good spotter. My dad usually spots me at my house and I like how he does it.

ja_ke · 01-04-2007, 02:20 PM

thurs jan 4

squats: 135x 5, 225x 5, 275x 5, 225x 5
standing calf raise: 255x 20, 20, 20
sldl: 135x 5, 185x 5, 5
leg press: 175x 5, 265x 8, 355x 8, 445x 12
seated calf raise: 135x 20, 20, 20

OUCH! It is obvious by the way I feel especially in my hams that I haven't done much leg work in some time outside of squats. Today reminded me though that I LOVE training legs.

It's frustrating though that I can't do it there.

**romanaz** · 01-04-2007, 07:48 PM
