MM107's Road To Record Breaking. The Journal of a Madman

[mm107]

Thanks SGT!! No underarmous this yr, didnt ask for it too much so mom prob didnt expect me to want any. I do have a whole shitload left over from playing baseball in the cold with all there gear on.

Im trying to get swole bro, is hard to bulk and stay cut, (as u found out too) and gotta watch my BF. I hold h20 very easily, to the point where i need to diet on mondays (strict) to loose any h20 im holding from the weekend.

Im at 197ish right now. Im hoping to hit 210-215 in February. Cut back, and be a solid 200-205 LEAN this yr.

Im not posting my workouts like i used to, but i figure i got to restart somewhere right!

Well yesterday's Gym Was Great!

Went in to Squat & Deadlift. Oh yes It was fun.

Squat with Safety bar - Puts weight higher on neck, forcing you to arch.
Warmed up to 225x5
225x5
245x5
245x5
255x5
255x5
135x10

The weight might seem low for me, but i have switched my stance up. I stand shoulder width apart (no longer PL wide stance) and litteraly am able to touch the floor with my ass. WITH a slight pause. My top strenght will ALWAYS be good, it was my power coming out of the hole, which this should really strengthen.

Deadlift - Sumo Stance
warmed up to 405
405x2
440x2
440x2
440x2
440x2

On the last 2 sets of the dead, i did not drop the weight i rather actually slowly lowered it. Fuckin felt great.

Amazing Gym Day!!!!

WOW yesterday's gym day was insane!

Got in and felt great. I was going to bench/shoulder workout, and i decided to get my powerlifting shirt on. I was pumped and it was worth the pain i am in today!

Bench (raw):
135x10
185x5
225x3
275x1 ( NEW PR!!!!)

Bench Shirted:
275 - Had shirt on crooked, couldnt bring bar down
315 - Almost touched
335 - Touched and Locked Out (NEW PR!!!!)
355 - Touched Low, Couldnt lock - Should be able too

Standing BTN Presses:
135x5
135x5
135x5
155x3

Bent Over Rows @ 90 Degrees:
135x5
135x5
155x5
155x5 - Cheated last set

Farmers Walk - Friend Challenge me to these. (Lap = 50-60 ft)
125 Each Hand - 4 Laps.
215 Each Hand - 2 Laps
260 Each Hand - 1 Full Lap - Drop - 1 half Lap Back ( NEW PR!!)

This was the best thing the whole night, they were insane because the the only area to do them was in the front of the cardio machines. And they were packed! It was fun tho, because i was doing them with a guy who was 240+lbs, and i was crushing him. It was especially good because there were so many hot chicks in that area, and it got to the point where people were cheering us to finish the lap.

My main Goal Today = SLEEP / EAT LIKE A FUCKING PIG!

[mm107]

ok you suns of biatches! Im back! Found time today to update this damn Log:

Few notes first: I have been feeling amazing. Strong as shit, I feel i look BIG, not shredded as i want, but the only area holding fat is my belly. My arms are defined now, shoulders have grown and my back is looking wide.

I have been training SUPER HEAVY for a while now, with plenty of rest/sleep. Also my diet has been very good recently. Not so good on the weekends, but that is just because i power lift on Saturday's and Sunday's So i need the extra calories to heal up.

Im going to start my Log from Tuesday

Tuesday Feb 6, 2007
Leg Day
Safety Bar Squats:
warmed up to 225
225x5
235x5
255x5
265x5

Then This is where the workout got insane & fun at the same time.

Rehab Squats: (dont get fooled by the name, this is where i strapped on a belt like device, and was able to hang 200lbs from the front of the belt. From there, stood on MATS so when i squated i could reach parralel before the plates hitting the floor. Tuesday is my light squat day, so these really focus on hitting and crushing the quads)
200lbs x 15
200lbs x 15
200lbs x 20

On the 20 reppers i got a boost of energy for god knows why. It probably was because i realized how fucking crazy i looked doing these.

Sjoberg Squats: (Ok these are made up, by my strenght coach, this is where i used the Rehab squats without the mats, but also put the Safety Squat Bar (135lbs) on my back too. These basically worked like this: I had to control the weight down or else i would fall foward, and then the weight would hit the floor, and take weight off, then i would squat to parralel and EXPLODE up because i had to be going fast enoight to lift up 200lbs as well:

200lbs Rehab Squat + 135 SafteySquatBar = 335lbs = 5 Reps
200lbs Rehab Squat + 135 SafteySquatBar = 335lbs = 5 Reps
200lbs Rehab Squat + 135 SafteySquatBar = 335lbs = 12 Reps

I was going to hold back on these, but i dont know i got that burst of energy again and LOVED it. AFTER THIS EXCERCISE I LITTERALLY BENT OVER TO release the weight from my belt device and my quads GAVE OUT. AMAZING LIFT. I need to get a video of this for everyone.

Then i had my protein shake and went home =]
