upper body + basic abs day


can I run tren ace at 150mg e3d? anybody know any side-effects of not spreading it out daily? i'd rather only do it 2x per week.

2/25/2010 10:46:33 PM

arms.

my legs hurt for days, my arms feel better by the end of the night. I don't like this.

2/25/2010 11:02:09 PM

BW UPPER BODY

was going to do rings, but didn't have it in me (damn sunus infection)

I used my nepi pot bunches, too.

[Edited on February 25, 2010 at 11:04 PM. Reason : and swam in an ubber chlorinated pool]

2/25/2010 11:04:03 PM

7 mile run. wasnt feeling it today so the last 3 miles hurt like shit.

i hate days like that

2/25/2010 11:04:34 PM

arms and shoulders tonight. I need to stop taking nitric oxide booster before working arms and shoulders, because the pump can get unbearable.

2/25/2010 11:06:21 PM

haha, I can hear the hs'ers across america using the same line.

2/25/2010 11:08:00 PM

^lol

2/25/2010 11:10:54 PM

I literally felt like my biceps were stuck about 80% of the way up doing curls, which was incredibly annoying. Getting stuck at the portion of the lift that should be the easiest is aggravating.

2/25/2010 11:10:58 PM

Ha, it's like how you would walk around for 2 days after leaving the gym back in hs

2/25/2010 11:12:54 PM

I haven't bothered to work out my arms as anything more than an afterthought from back and chest days in almost 2 years, so I'd almost forgotten how swollen your arms can get if you work them on their own day.

2/25/2010 11:15:50 PM

Do you feel guilty doing it?

2/25/2010 11:18:05 PM

no, because the day prior is always leg day, I don't like doing cardio after leg day because I'm sluggish and feel it inhibits muscle gains. What else am I going to do? If I'm working out of town and have to skip a day at the gym, arm day goes. There are people at the gym who view every day as arm day.

Besides, doing more tricep work has made my benching feel more stable.

[Edited on February 25, 2010 at 11:23 PM. Reason : the overinflated lat syndrome from not being able to put my arms down make me feel guilty though]

2/25/2010 11:22:52 PM

I did squats for the first time in 5 years on tuesday... I haven't been able to do any cardio yet

2/25/2010 11:24:46 PM

I'm thinking of adding more direct arm work back in, for the latter reason.

Your placing makes sense. I'm tempted to do the same after a ME lower, which is followed by a 2 day off. However, that would place ME bench/upper 2 days following "arms".

2/25/2010 11:28:27 PM

I almost never do arms these days.

I haven't totally turned my back on my weightlifting roots and moved completely into Crossfit-style workouts, but I don't do much isolation work these days. It's mostly big compound movements, and I just chest, back, and shoulder work take care of arms.


Maybe I should work them on their own day again for a while, just to change things up again.

2/25/2010 11:28:56 PM

Hey, and beach season is coming up soon

2/25/2010 11:30:17 PM

I really want to get into crossfit but I simply can't do some of the stuff, no equipment. The gym on base isn't very accommodating. I really can't wait until the pool opens up - that's my favorite way to work back/arms.

did all of that, plus 3 x 10 skullcrushers and added 5 minutes to the run. i'm beat.

2/25/2010 11:32:21 PM

That's like claiming running can replace leg work.

2/25/2010 11:32:43 PM

Well I mean obviously it isn't the same thing but i'm not looking to get my back ripped. The toning I get from swimming satisfies me.

My goals right now are simply to drop weight and lose the man boobs

2/25/2010 11:34:04 PM

I don't know if I have the energy needed to fully respond to that, as I've been up since 4.

we need a workout/running/roids etc,etc subforum.

2/25/2010 11:39:23 PM

don't waste your time

I didn't fully articulate my words because i'm sleepy and don't really care. Here's what would happen if you did fully respond:

I would already be in agreement with everything you have to say. I would probably end up clarifying and justifying things I said to prove my point. You would think i'm lying. I wouldn't be. Much would ensue

2/25/2010 11:40:06 PM

messed around with some weights this evening, set 1RM @ 335 Decline Bench...feeling STRONG

2/26/2010 12:52:54 AM

should have gone 350

2/26/2010 1:04:16 AM

Lifted weights this AM, hoping to run later tonight.

2/26/2010 8:13:17 AM

anyone got tricks for healing foot blisters with a quickness?

2/26/2010 8:52:40 AM

Just ran 5 miles and did ten minutes of core exercises

^ Alternate dabbing your blister with neosporin, which will heal the wound faster and prevent infection, plus dab the wound with alcohol, which will keep it dry.

2/26/2010 9:27:45 AM

least favorite day, hypertrophy legs....

All supersets were 5x10/10/15

High N Narrow Leg Press @ 11 plates / Leg Curls @ 140 / Calf Extensions @ 11 plates

I'll holler at some P90x - have wanted to have it in case I don't get to the gym and want to do a workout at home..

2/26/2010 10:31:17 AM
