I'm so anxious to get back into the gym. Pulled a muscle near my shoulder several weeks ago and when that was starting to feel good, I herniated a disc in my back. Now my back is feeling good, but I'm recovering from a poison ivy reaction that landed me in urgent care lol. To say I'm restless is a bit of an understatement lol.

Hope it goes well, Ray! :-)

Back day today...rocked the bent over rows again as it just seems I am really in the groove on them right now....didn;t have much gas left for anything else after, so went heavy and short after that.

Bent Over Rows 185, 205, 225, 245, 265, 275, 305, 275, 225
T-Bar Rows 270, 295, 295, 270
Cable Rows 260, 260, 260, 260
Close grip Pull-ups 2 sets to failure

4 hockey games in 4 nights now, so the gym will be a challenge the next few workouts. Don't plan on missing any workouts though.

9 sets, beast. Rep ranges?

Another leg day for me. Almost took today off but I was up and couldn't go back to bed.

Think I did about 8-9 sets on front squats for 8-10 reps. All the fun leg stuff.

I was getting 18-20 with 185 and 205, 15 or so at 225-245, finally down to 6 at 305.

Think I got 11, 9, 9 and 10 on the T-bars.

funnel cake (with chocolate syrup of course)
1/2 burger (mac n cheese stuffed pattie w/bacon)
tri tip sandwich (bbq sauce on the side to keep it healthy lol)

Ahhhh yeah, gonna smash some dead lifts tomorrow.

Gotta cheat now and then, Huy! :-)

Got to the gym with only about 30 minutes to change, warm up and train. Was supposed to be bi's and tri's, decided to just do some bi's a leave tri's for after chest tomorrow.

Cambered bar curls 145 X 14,13,12,10,8
Barbell curls 125 X 13, 135 X 12, 135 X 10
Preacher curls 100 X 15, 12, 8, 6

Tried to start a set of cable curls and decided my bi's were toast.

Smashed the back today. Mainly rowing movements. Warmed up with 5 sets of wife grip pull ups to failure and then negatives. Finished off with dead lifts for high reps. I guess I should eat like I did last night before a big back day :-)
[Reply]

Yup, looks like those cheat calories worked in your favor, huy! :-)
[Reply]

That leg day again. Focused a lot more on hamstrings today though.
[Reply]

International Chest day...strength was low on inclines, stopped after a set at 275, and went to bench. Strength a little better, went to 325, then finished with some flyes and some moderate weight declines and body weight dips.
[Reply]

Haven't done decline in so long... Maybe tomorrow
[Reply]

Blasted breasties today with the wife. Proud of her, less than 2 months ago, she was barely benching 60, today she was hitting 95 for reps! Killed it.

Flat bb, incline db, incline db flies, dips to failure super set with cable flies.

Finished off with 2 tricep movements.
[Reply]

No declines? :-)

Back day today, super limited on time so I worked at a breakneck pace.

Barbell rows 205, 225, 245, 265
Cable rows 265, 275, 285, 285, 250
Pullups to failure

Shoulder day tomorrow....ready for some pain.
[Reply]

It's rare that I do decline. For me, I feel hitting dips, target my lower pecs better.
[Reply]

Shoulders and Tris today. Just couldn't take the pain real heavy of pressing motions, so I stayed light.

Seated Military 135, 155, 175, 185
