With cows for calves, you are definitely a real man, Dokk. :-)

:-) :-) :-)

Backed things off a bit this morning, ankle is still bothering me a bit, so I didn't push the weight. Did some squats, bench press, and chin-ups. Worked on my squat depth a bit, as I noticed I've been going to parallel or just above in my work sets, but below parallel in my warmup sets. So I did 275 for 3 sets of 5 (315 is my 5RM). Felt good. Good bench, but I was getting a bit tired. Did 3 sets of 5 chins. Haven't done those in a while. Need to work on them some...

Hope the ankle gets better soon, Pete. :-)

Day off for me....hockey tonight though.

Good Shoulder/back day for me this morning

Thanks! Have fun checking the other kids into the walls :-)

30 min on the elliptical, then back and biceps yesterday. No gym today.

Men....boards. I'm just sayin', Pete. :-) :-)

Due to lots of work travel and a float trip (lots of arms chest and back rowing a boat though) hadn't been able to hit the gym as much as I've wanted the past few weeks.

Was able to get a good leg and bicep workout today. Back on schedule I hope.

How did this thread fall off the first page?!?
Bump.



Chest and triceps today.
I also played around a little bit too with biceps (machine curls: 3 sets of 10 at 35lbs) and calf raises (3 sets at 270).
Was worn out afterwards, so I cut back my cardio to 15min. on the elliptical machine.
Can't wait till tomorrow: leg day.


I've been hitting the gym for a month now, so my insecurities have worn off (not completely though). Don't feel nearly as awkward working out alone in front of lots of people as I did.:-)

Chest and Tri's for me too. Definitely felt not being in the gym regularly of late.

I had a real good chest/tri day on thursday, and a good shoulders/leg day today. Lately sometimes I have to really focus to stay on track.

Chest was ok, but my triceps are sore for not working them the last workout like I should.
Shoulders/legs for me tomorrow.

I'll be workin' all day tomarrow.

Killed my legs today!

nailed 435x3 bench
pete Im sorry ive been slacking, gonna get u this week. I hope.
4sets of slackers for 15

Triple H does reps of 400. You are the man, Frank!
I've been doing 3 ssets of 10 squats at around 90lbs, but today I did 3 sets of 10 at 270.
Leg press at 270 too. Calf raises the same at 300.

I'm gaining fast on leg days, not so much on upper body days.


I guess that's why I love leg days.

I'm a friggin' weakling with my upper body.

chest/tris day in about an hour

No worries, man.

Dunno what has been up with me lately. Not been feeling it. Anyway, ok workout this morning, squats, press and dead (285x5 new PR). I need to work on my squat depth. I have a tendency to not go quite as far on the heavier sets. I think it's all in my head.

Time to change it up. Maybe 3x a week; back chest legs?
Try box squats until you get 100% comfortable hitting depth.
