9-8-05 Thursday Back,Abs and One main set (fucking around) for shoulders

Still working my way back up. Just 15 sets of back. Afterwards I did one sets of lateral dumbbell raises with 25lbs for 50 reps. Only because the dumbbells werent organized right, and I was too lazy to go search the gym and organize them for a dropset. Also wanted to get some food. Usually Id start a dropset with 45lb dumbbells and work down in 5 pound increments. 45,40,35,30,25,20 each set to failure. No rest between sets, only resting by letting arms hang down at sides. "Rest pause". Something like that. Then I might repeat another round. Doing this, shoulders can be completed very quickly, its 10-12 sets over 2 rounds and can be completed in minutes. Burns my shoulders up much better then taking long rests between heavy laterals.

Kill

10-29-09 Thursday Chest (15 mins cardio)

Back to my original KILLING grounds since my return, Bally's gym. 24 hour fitness just dont cut it for my chest and back training. Was a good workout overall.

Main difference being that my shoulders were not strained hardly at all this time. Training chest once a week seems like its gonna work out much better.
I will really fucking KILL that chest session since it is only once, and will do inclines on smith after the flat portion, or even switch to inclines instead of flats. Cycle the two.

275 has become the fucking bastard child of my chest routines. Those who know my routine, know that I hit reps to failure with , 225,275,315 and up. I think for a while Im going to just go straight to 300 for my next set after 225, maybe even 315, will see, then ill go up and work my reps with the heavier weights. I think ive been expending too much energy in the sub 300's, fucking around, having my fun. Its time for some changes. I prefer heavier poundages over low weight for high reps.

Hit one PR with 300x15 1/2 but only cuz of the specific number. 315x14 is my best. Good day overall and didnt hit anything extra cuz I didnt fucking feel like it.

I can kill the shoulders and rear delts on sunday. Some days I may add to the chest session, but I like the idea of a day dedicated to killing chest, rather then twice a week.

Ultimately Ill train by feel though:

(200 lbs before meals)

Flat Bench Press: (3/4 reps until end, then locked)

135x20 (warm)
225x40
300x15 1/2 (PR, but only cuz of the number. 315x14 is best)
335x4 1/2 (Spotter really fucked me up. Yelling and arms in the way. I drop the weight fast, so completely fucked my rhythym)
375x 2 half reps (Waited too long to find a spot)
315x7 (Spotter distracted me and shit went out of the groove)
315x9

Smith Machine Incline Presses: (First time back on these in nearly 2 months)

225x33
315x12
365x2
315x6

Hammer Strength Incline Press:

270x22
360x10 1/2
410x5 1/2
450x2
360x10
360x10
360x8

KILL THAT SHIT



The beast is back. Killing that shit once again. Ill post a copy of my journal here once again if there is feedback

Took myself out for 2 years. Ruptured two disks in my upper spine. Brutal training and ignoring the pain, as can be seen in this journal. Have learned to adapt since then and at my strongest now.

kill that shit!!

KILL THAT SHIT

 

[WalkingBeast]

Stop talking and post videos.

Here are some videos taken a few weeks ago.

Horrendous fucking chest session and strained shoulder, so only a few sets. Something though.

I have some new ones coming up soon. Waiting for them to be digitized and converted. 100lb dumbbell laterals dropset was the highlight. The benching portion on those was only slightly better.

1am training to film was really fucking me up.

KILL THAT SHIT!!
