It’s actually one of my strongest lifts. I think because I’m pretty flexible and have good mobility that I can hit good numbers. 225-275x6-8
Anyhow, back day (sorta)
Wide grip deads x5
T bar rows 5x
Popped my head inside the court and got asked to play. Ended up running 3 games, so had got my cardio in instead of finishing my workout.
Good job, Bob. Keep it up brother

Good work, guys!
:-)
Bob, glad you're able to get some lifting in.
Huy, those are good numbers, promise never to kick me.
:-)
Cold was worse this morning, so I didn't train. Went to work, feel much better tonight, but since legs is up, I am going to take one more day off. I have to work again tomorrow (earlier), I just think I'm more likely to purge this sh!t completely if I take another day. Or maybe I'm just being a pu$sy.

But for the best possible reason. Or at least a close second to taking me out for tacos.
:-)
I will pick it up for you in the morning. Not sure how it will go, the cold settled in my throat, but I've missed 4 days (today for reasons other than the cough), so I need to get back, even if they're short.
Crossing my fingers and toes that all goes perfectly. Don't let Mason send her back.
Bob, any improvements?

Nope, I honestly think it's gotten a bit worse. At least it feels that way this morning. Asked my doc to schedule me an appt with a neurosurgeon, at least for a consult/second opinion.

How’s your cold?

I feel like I've turned the corner, thanks, but unfortunately a lot of my friends who have had a similar bug say just when you think you're better, it makes a surprise return. Knocking on wood that's not the case with me.
Hope the arm work goes well, I'm heading in for shoulders and arms too.

Tried some arms today. Went light to gauge what i can/can’t do. Turns out not a whole lot.
:-)
Tri pushdowns
Tri pushdown machine
Ez bar curls
Zotts
Hammer curls
The left tri is definitely weak right now. Attempted ez bar skull crushers. Left arm started to buckle just lifting bar up. The name of the exercise isn’t supposed to be literal. Also tried some cable tri kickbacks. Right side went fine. Left not so much.
I’ll just keep the weights light and do what I can till this heals.

Bob, I wish I had something wise to say...I just know it sucks when you're into it and the body is not cooperating. I'm having an issue with my right tri right now, but it isn't even close to what you're enduring. Just know I've been there, and gotten better every time. Couple real bad ones, couple pretty bad ones,
:-) and here I stand. You'll do the same.
Today was leg day, went in very unmotivated, so decided to go volume. Lost count of how many sets of leg presses I did, I did them til my quads started cramping. Threw in a bunch of hammie curls and quad extensions until my hamstrings started cramping too. The stairs have been just lovely tonight, and I've been up and down all the flights a dozen times.
I'll hit front squats next leg day, just didn't feel like it today. Tomorrow I'm going to just hit core and cardio, and back to chest Sunday. That way I don't have chest on ICM.
:-)
Huy, are you curling your children to get a little bicep workout in?
:-)

Adriftpanda 02:24 AM 03-30-2019
