I don't even know how to do an adrenal restart! :-)

But I whacked the living chit outta my back today with high rep T-bars at 250, high rep cable rows at 220, barbell rows at 225, 245, 265, 285 and some pullups to finish her off.

Just got a Powerblock Sport Set for a steal on Craigslist. Comes with a stand, 2x5-90lb blocks and 2x3-24lb blocks. All I need now is an adjustable bench and I can do some working out at the house as well. May prevent me from taking any days off, which is a good thing. :-)

Got a couple warnings at the gym over the past few days about using certain equipment and chalk. I'm getting really fed up with my Globo Gym. I'm going to check out a different gym after 4th of July. A guy I used to train with loves it there and says the atmosphere alone will make me stronger. We will see.

Hope the new gym is a good one, Son. MY gym frowns on chalk too, I just tell them to go **** themselves, this is a ******* gym. But I'm old, I can get away with that. :-)


Hit chest hard today, have a game shortly. Back tomorrow, another game tomorrow night. My body must be confused as to whether to get big or get lean.

Good workout week, and a rest day yesterday.

Back to chest today, tore it up with inclines, vertical bench on the plate loaded machine, declines, some flat bench and some flyes. Hoping to have just as intense a day manana on back day.

Ahhhh to be back at a gym and see barbells!

Got a good a session in today hitting legs.

Sumos dead, from squats, extensions, leg curls. All the good stuff.

I go to 24 hour fitness super sport in downtown. It's pretty spacious and there are a good amount of power lifters there so using chalk and slamming the bb isn't that much of a problem, at least slamming it to an extent.

MIxed it up on back today. Went light (205) on bent over rows for reps sets, fast pace until I felt like I couldn't handle another set. Went to heavy T-bars, a bit slower paced and pyramided up to 295. Finished with narrow grip cable rows and wide grip pulldowns. Great pump, still pumped 3 hours later.

Hockey tonight.

Breast day :-)

Decent weights today, went for 8-10 on each set with 4-5 sets. Think we did about 5 chest exercise and ended with some standing military presses. Barely squeezed out 135 for 5x4.

Back day, :-)

Deads, heavy for low reps and then reduced the weight by 40% and worked on deads at a deficit.

Didn't do a whole lot of exercises after that, maybe 3 more but the reps and sets were high. Kept everything to at leasat 5-7 sets for 8-12. Pull downs, high rows, db rows.

May take a day off tomorrow... not sure. I haven't dedicated a day to arms in a while, maybe I'll give that a go.

Shoulder day, and the left shoulder was just raw. Made it through some moderate weight sets of military presses, even 205 was too painful for more than a handful of reps today. "Good" days and bad days for shoulders, today was one of the bad ones.

Did drop sets of shrugs for traps, a few sets 0f 405/365/315/275/225. Traps are hurting as well, but in a good way this time.

Meh, next shoulder day could be a good one, I never know until I get that first set in.

Dedicated arm day tomorrow, Huy, just like you are thinking of doing. Then a couple days off from hockey so I can finally get a good leg workout in.

Almost did arms but felt energized after a long day of work actually. Not a bad day...

Warmed up with leg extensions, 7x10-12 for working sets. Warming up my hips and quads.

Worked on squats, went heavy with low reps. 7x3 @335

Then just did other isolation movements. Kept everything fairly higher reps and sets.

Cambered bar curls @ 135 - 18, 16, 14, 12 10, 9, 8
Preacher curls @ 115 - 15, 12, 10
Tricep pushdowns 97.5, 122.5, 142.5, 147.5, 122.5, 97.5

Went a little overboard on the bent over rows today, going Ah-nold style.

205, 215, 225, 245, 255, 275, 295, 305. Got 18 reps with 205, down to only 5 reps with 305.

Medium width pulldowns 200, 220, 240, 260.

T-bar rows 5 sets @ 275.

Cable rows 3 sets #260.

Dead hangs to stretch out, then chcken breast, egg whites, fruit and 8 grain toast with PB to feed the beast.

Had a great couple days of training. Even though I was on a short vacation, I met up with a friend to train in San Diego.

Hit chest pretty hard Sunday morning, learned some new techniques as well.

Tired as hell but killed legs today. All the lovely exercises, front squats, sumo deads, etc.

I spent the last hour prepping my meals for maņana.

Nice back pump going today.

Seated rows, pull downs at every angle possible and a few other exercises. Kept everyone moderate weight while trying to hit 8-10 rep range x5-6 sets.
