Congrats, Ron!

Core is involved directly or indirectly in most every movement, Greg. That's why making one's core stronger is a priority.

They would love it, they love bicep day
[Reply]

bicep day was yesterday. :-)
[Reply]

And why wouldn't they? :-)

No, today is bicep day. :-)
[Reply]

I think I might be doing the same thing as you guys are mentioning.. breaking my arm day into a bicep day and a tricep day.. a lot of ol skool guys I know usually do this.. im gonna try it for a while and see what happens


I ended up skipping the gym yesterday to go pick up my new Pickup Truck. I am working 12's today, so hopefully I can get a shoulder workout in later.


Whats the latest in the day you guys can usually workout and take a PWO? im getting out of work at 7 and can probably be at the gym at 7:15.. but that might be tough lol.. any suggestions
[Reply]

Can't help you with that, Ron, the latest I've hit the gym in the last 10 years was 1 PM. I do take Amino Energy before late hockey games, and a double dose of that keeps me up an extra hour once in a while, but usually not.

Enjoy the new truck!
[Reply]

I've been training around 9:30 or even 10pm lately. I won't take any pwo other than the 120mg of caffeine that's in my amino cuts bcaa. You can take the amino energy like Tom mentioned. 2-3 scoops is like 150mg of caffeine.

Nice Ron ... what kind of truck did you get?

Today was some bench and shoulders for me.

Starting my bench over from scratch since its as so awful so Monday and Today were both paused 5x10 @ 135, focusing really hard on form and speed. Both felt good so i'm gonna just go up 10lbs each week until my chest is feeling stronger, at which point i'll probably do a more strength based routine.

Shoulders went well. Did some heavy work to start and then moved on to some volume.

I usually do a little bit of Tris on chest day and a little bit of bis on back day and then just a full arm day on saturdays. I'm always open to trying new things tho and 2 full arm days sound kinda fun lol

International Chest Day here. Switched it up and went vertical bench first, up to 335. Two degrees of inclines and some declines. Just a switch up day, I'll throw dips, flyes and some flats back in next time.
[Reply]

International breast day here too!

Quick training. Quick for me is under an hour. Think it was a few min short of that.

Incline bb
Flat DB
Hammer strength press
Cable flies - cable press

DB single arm extensions
Cable overhead extensions

Made sure everything was 8+ reps, nothing less.

another Toyota Tacoma. I wasn't even looking for one.. I saw a great deal and I bought it..

it was a 2012 with 988 miles on it! belonged to an old guy and he literally had like 7 cars and never drove it.. it still has the window sticker in the center console, hehe



BTW, I took your guys advice and tried a double shot of aminos for my 7:30pm workout.. I also rubbed on some Sweet Sweat and I had a great pump! and still fell asleep! felt great! thanks guys!
[Reply]

Very cool, Ron! :-)

Shoulders and tris yesterday, decent workout with the shoulder screamin'. Drank a lot of vodka last night, so might be an easy one today, maybe bis and abs?
