Starting a log, training like a madman to work out my anger!

I tried to get 365 lb deadlift today thinking for sure I'd be able to get that... since a month ago I was nailing 405... nope. I got super pissed off and did a TON of deadlifts in response.
I know that brutal leg workout on Tuesday didn't help my cause haha I was still so sore. That workout was...just... insane.

Deadlift 315 x 5 / 325 x 4 / 315 x 4 / 295 x 5 / 295 x 4 / 280 x 5 / 275 x 5 / 275 x 5 / 275 x 5 / 275 x 4
Bent Over Row: 95 x 5 / 115 x 5 / 110 x 5 / 95 x 8 / 95 x 8 / 95 x 8 / 95 x 6 / 100 x 5
Barbell Row Parallel to ground: 95 x 5 / 85 x 5 / 75 x 8 / 75 x 8 / 75 x 8

Superset
Reverse Grip Lat Pulldown: 120 x 8 / 120 x 8 / 110 x 8 / 110 x 8

4 Mile run with like 6 minute 30 second miles... that needs alot of improvement lol. Almost puked running :P
 
6:30 is a solid pace for a 4 mile considering where you were and where you are at!
Try this for you DL, may work, may not. (works for me)---Wave Loading

So for me a real heavy set of DL is 315 for a set of 5. So this is the example based on MY numbers

DL--warm up--up to like a single rep of 255

Working sets--
275--set of 3-->295-set of 3-- 315- set of 3-->295-set of 3--305-set of 3---315 set of 3

As you can see, what is happening is I am doing 2 sets of 315 for 3 reps/set instead of 1 heavy ass set of 315 for 5. and at same time, I am getting the lower weight work in as well to increase the volume but they are almost "practice lifts"-they still serve a purpose of keeping your form well, getting volume in, and serving as back off sets.
 
Yeah I like that dude. I will give that a try next time. I'll be getting quality lifts and quantity still

That's a very interesting deadlift loading thing, I might have to try that. Another one is pre exhaustion, popularized by Benni Magnusson and Travis Ortmayer, 4 sets of 4 with 70% of your max, set of 2 with 80%, set of 2 with 90%. And you increase the weight by 10 lbs per week.
 
Guys Im feeling so fucking beast today I killed this leg workout. It was pure mental anguish but GODDAMN I FEEL GOOD NOW.

Guys I've been having the sickest most intense fucking workouts all week. Building I tried supersetting KB curls with cable curls. You just gave me a new favorite weapon to throw at biceps :)

I'm gonna have to get new jeans soon if this keeps up because these high volume leg days are making my legs explode. I've never had this much growth or definition in my legs. When I was doing 5x5 stuff on leg day I got stronger but definately now bigger. Legs are getting bigger every day it seems.

I'll throw some more logs out at yall soon. Yesterday was a sick chest workout. Today I am hitting shoulders
 
5x5 sets a great foundation for the volume work, once you start it it blows up! The first time I did 20 rep squats, after doing 5x5 for 6 months, my quads jumped up from 22 inches to 25 inches in a week. Everybody I tell says I"m bullshitting but you can believe whatever you want to believe, I gained 3 inches naturally in a week from the switch from strength to volume work.

I did 5x5 on and off for years. When I started doin leg press for reps of 30 I had to purchase new jeans overnight. Not even joking. Only shitty part is finding a good looking pair of 32 inch jeans to fit big legs ... But chicks dig big legs!! Half my buddies have smaller legs than their girls. Try doing some high volume leg press for a few sets before squatting 5x5 . I had been stuck at 315 for 5 for a while, I leg pressed 4 sets of 30 and then went to squat, I squatted 315x 10 that day.
 
Yeah haha dude I'm done with 5x5 altogether. Squatting for 20 reps nothing beats it if you ask me. Same as leg presses like you said dude

Don't keep trying for a new max. Try once every like 2-3 months. Constantly trying to get a new 1 rep max for DL leads to CNS fatigue and the way you workout, it is more likely to happen (I'm referring to your ape shit volume-still don't get how u do it lol)

Looking good.. The upper chest/traps need more poundage.. arms look fine to me except for maybe the forearms.. hit them more
 
Did such a nasty leg session on tuesday. I'm exhausted today because I kept waking up in my sleep. If I lay on my stomach, just my quads pressing up on the bed disturbs my sleep, not to mention moving around lol. On the plus my quads are getting so much bigger. I took a pic a few weeks ago and took another last week to compare. The difference is amazing. I'll post it if I can a chance.

Hmm ill try high reps too
 
I really feel like the contraction with high reps gives a much better burn and produces better soreness and results man. It's more intense too because I lift as heavy as I can for 20 or15 reps. Let me know what you think of it!

15-20 reps works wonders for arms.. and any other body part really.. It send way more blood to the muscle.. Its the way to grow.
 
Thank you Evan I totally agree! Everyone always blows me off when I say that but it works dude

Let people blow you off dude.. You will keep getting better when they look the same month after month
 
Agreed completely! I can definately tell you ive become addicted to squatting for reps. My god it's such a mental challenge I love it!
 
Mixing high reps and low is the way to go. High reps are the best way to grow, low reps are the best way to set your potential higher by building a greater strength base.
 
Omg guys

Did all this in under 2 hours. I was moving nonstop. Going back to the gym later tonight to get in my third hour ;) cardio and abs. I am cutting back on carbs I'm getting love handles again. I know it's not a real big deal but it fucking bugs the hell out of me lol.
 
Fuck guys yesterday I ran just like 2.5 miles. Today when I was squatting I had this sharp shearing pain in my left knee. Just bending my knee hurts insanely bad. It's aching terribly bad right now and I'm just sitting here.

I think it was the running that flared it up and leg day just caused the shit to hit the fan.

It doesn't look swolen or anything.. . when I extend my leg sitting down it actually is more of a dull aching pain which is odd. Like almost a bruise kind of pain inside my kneecap. Standing up and going into squat position is what causes the sharp pain.

It's happened before and it always seems to be after I run. I am going to quit running altogether :(
Hopefully that's going to solve the problem. It's so depressing though. I'll do whatever I can to work around it but I really hope it doesn't get to a point where I cant squat or anything.

I'm going to ice it tonight. I took 4 ibuprofen (spelling? lol) as well.

It might be cartilage, but I'm also flat footed which causes me to walk and run oddly almost. That's why I think running is the culprit. My stride is probably improper.

Regardless, the pain hit early in the squats, about set 3 or 4... Squatting didn't seem to make it feel any worse and it didn't actually hurt WHILE squatting, just after...

I'm pretty pissed

3 sets of Standing calf raises
3 sets of seated calf raises

Probably shouldn't have done those leg extentions. They did not help with the problem I'm having with my knee that I stated in my last post. Lesson learned
 
Dudeeee I had this happen a year ago.. For me I was running alot and one day after squatting I couldn't extend my left leg... It was a stress fracture for me.

Took 3 weeks to be able to walk again without pain

Took another 4 weeks before I could leg press 1 plate on it. This was about 1 full year ago. (This is why my squat is kinda low- basically had to start with just bar February 2012)

You really wanna get it looked at if tomorrow it starts to hurt to walk. And don't lift on it (like squat/DL/leg press)

A stress fracture is minor, but can worsen if you keep at it
 
Fuck I hope that's not it lol I had a stress fracture in the ankle about 8 months ago... It feels completely different though man like a cartilage thing. Makes this really gross noise when I extend it. But fuck I didn't think about a stress fracture, that's another possibility. Definitely will get it looked at if it keeps hurting. Thanks man. Grrr lol

It feels a lot better man, now it feels like bruised. Squatting, stair stepping, deadlifting nothing makes it hurt. It's gotta be the running. Thanks for askin

Gotcha. So just back off the running n stick to what keeps you injury free-you dodged a bullet dude.
 
Sorry I've been lagging on the logs guys. I almost got a 410 deadlift on Friday but not quite. I'm going to try again next week because I came very close.

My knee started hurting again. It aches just like a headache right in my knee cap. Not the same kind of pain I had when I had a stress fracture though. I'm going to give it another week without running g but still plan to squat. I'll reassess the situation in a week and decide if I need to see a doc

No lifting as of now bro. And you can call me Chikoo, were friends, may as well go by first names
 
I'm gonna have a lot of catching up to do on this log lol. Weeks worth of stuff.

Schools been crazy. Also finally met a nice girl. I'm going to hang out with her this weekend :P but I've been killing it.

I'm going back to lifting heavy like 5 or 6 reps on bench. Before hst surgery I was getting 75 lb dumbells 5 times. Now I only get 65 5 times.

Does the epistrong have you dried out? I can't imagine that helping the situation . How goes the battle anyways aside from the leg ?
 
Epi is definately starting to dry me out for sure man. I'm weighing in at about.... eh 192 lbs or so. I was 183 after my surgery and I think about a solid 185 before the cycle!
 
Walked into the locker room earlier guys, swear to god, and come around the corner. In the back of the room there's like a small corner and there's some black dude with bleached hair JACKING OFF in the locker room... I can't believe I saw that fucking shit

Wow I've seen old dudes drying their dicks off in the hair dryers and watching TV naked and shit but someone straight up jacking off in the locker room??? Some people have no shame.
 
Lmao yeah dude he was fucking going at it.... And I can't unsee what I saw.

Thanks guys. Yeah, I really like this girl! I need to be careful though

The movie had some pretty funny parts in it man , could good one to take your wife to!
 
Well my cycle has ended. My Bench is back to where it was before my tonsillectomy, maybe slightly higher. Got a PR of 205 x 10 back squat and 225 x 8 back squat. Barbell rowing 135 x 5 now finally. Could do about 2 strict wide grip pull ups before cycle now it's about 6.

Weight after tonsillectomy was 183 now I'm about 190 solid.

This PCT is brutal... The hormone fluctuations in top of clomid, which I am only dosing at 25mgs,is giving me the worst depression. My life feels like it's gone to complete hell, when things have actually improved in reality... I feel abandoned, lonely, and I'm almost like paranoid with he girlfriend, like it's too good to be true. But I'm not letting it show because I've been through this before and it's all in my head.

I'm just trying to ride it out. Wish me luck guys I could use some support.... I hope it evens out soon. I've got a hell of a PCT so I'm hoping my body bounces back quite quickly.

I felt like this during pct on my superdrol cycle as well. But I wasn't on clomid with that. Still it's going way more smoothly than the last PCT!

The mind is on "machine mode" right now because I've been feeling so down... they say discipline takes over when motivation slacks off and so far that's holding true.
 
Good shit dude, good stuff.
Btw idk much about pro hormones, but high fat diets promote natural Hormone production- like on keto diets (high fat low carb) I get oily skin and other signs of higher test
 
Thanks bro. Hell ill try that it's definitely something I haven't thought of. Thanks again my friend! You da man

Here's what I'm eating( trying to recomp on lower carb high fat)

Workout-coffee/Gatorade
Post workout-raisin bran n Greek yogurt
Lunch- Greek yogurt/tuna or chicken & whole eggs
Dinner- steak or turkey fried in bacon and spinach, tomatoes, green beans fried in the bacon fat with onions/garlic/lemon juice.
 
Interesting. Sounds yummy too! Have you seen any difference in your physique from the dieting yet? What about energy levels and mood?
 
Energy levels are good. I'm battling a cold right now so hard to say- and just started this recently. Ill let u know in a week or so physique-wise.
 
Hey mike, quick update.

The higher fat diet-> stronger & feeling bigger. Sleep like a baby. More energy thru the day (I'm even only doing 1 cup coffee a day now instead of 2). Keeping carbs around 100g/day with a high carb day like once every 5 days.
 
Thanks for the update Chikoo I'm already eating more fats. Lol anything to help mentally. I'm having family issues and some issues with my girlfriend because of her own family issues.... I'm a mess right now mentally!

Got in 45 mins of cardio earlier and fuck it I might go back and do 45 more. I don't care anymore, I'm too sore to lift but it's the only thing that eases my mind

Going in for more cardio today. Looks like I'm not going to take a single rest day for awhile but as long as I plan this right.. I can pull it off.

I can't sit around anymore I'm just getting too depressed. Girlfriend is having some family issues and she's stood me up twice in a row now... Blown off our plans. She's completely shut me out emotionally... I have a class with her though. If I break up with her.. Ugh. She's treating me like shit. Idk what will happen

My ex had family issues she wouldn't discuss. I had same thoughts as you initially, but I decided against it because I understood that was her coping method.
After a while, she opened up n things smoothed out (tho we broke up, it was for totally separate reasons from this particular thing)

Hope that gives you some mental relief
