11-21-09 Saturday (2am Sunday) Triceps, 2 sets biceps (15 mins cardio)

Mind and energy just fuckin out of it at 2am. Feeling very flat lately. Not sure what it is.

Im considering a change in my training. Usually my pressing for example is more ballistic, shorter ROM. Im thinking to try more time under tension, slower reps, less rest between sets. Maybe more machines and dumbbells for chest. Im sick of getting spotters randomly every chest session. My front delts have always taken over, leaving my upper chest more flat.

So I might try this with multiple body parts. Maybe alot of drop and supersets. Not sure yet. Its a thought.:

lol bro you are not doing so hot man.

 

[the_alcatraz]

Bro, when you say Kill that shit, do you mean kill and break every muscle / bone in your body, because I really think you're doing a little too much in too little time...props on the dedication and motivation, but maybe Needto is right and you need a change of pace or to shock your body somehow (in a good way)
