WEEK 3
(8/21 - 8/27)

Monday 8/21/06
Back
Sumo deadlift
Bar warmup
115x15 175x15 PR!!! 10 pounds up bitchasses WOO! Oh yeah this was very hard, don't know how I did it. I kinda felt unconscience while doing these, no idea how I managed to pull it up.
Lateral rows
60x15 warmup
165x8 hard
Hyper extensions
BWx10, BW+25x10 (was aiming for 20 but too tired after a hard day of work)
Traps
Seated db shrugs
60x15 (very tired, couldn't do anymore since I don't have gloves and I was holding in a big shit)
Biceps
Reverse curls with the bar, and some stretches

This workout could've been better but I was shit tired from work. All in all I'm very happy with the deads.
Todays cardio:
1 break job on a Ford Explorer POS, 1 front tire mounting and balancing, 1 tire rotation, 1 transmission tune up, and various oil changes.
I'm swamped. Bad headache too

Wednesday 8/23/06
Chest
Flat bench press
135x10 warmup
155x6, 180x6, 200x3 clean no assist (15 pounds up mofuckas!! )

40x10 warmup
75x4 (tired...)
Decline bench press
135x13 (aiming for 15 but too tired)
Triseps
Pushdowns
110x12
Quick workout. I was tired cuz it was 9am, but overall very happy with teh bench

Friday 8/25/06
Legs
Squats
135x20 (HARD!!!!) 185x4 (almost failed cuz I was so tired.) 135x10
This sucked. I was tired, and just couldn't go for 15 like I aimed for. Next week will be better.
Then I did some light leg, shoulder, and forearm work. Workout took 30 minutes total, quick n crappy.

Pretty good week so far. Can't wait to bench next week. Deadlifts will be fun. Kinda scared about my squats, but I'm sure next week will be good.

Sunday 8/27/06
Chest
Speed bench (alternating grips)
115 - 9 sets of 3 (pretty hard, but I pushed em pretty quick. 3-4 seconds each set)
Lockout presses (on a crappy power rack)
140x10, 140x10 (these were really hard)
Triseps
Close grip bench
125x10, 125x10 (these were hard, and hurt my wrists)
Awsome workout.

This whole week I've been really down. I'm trying the high protein high fat low carb diet. I've had 0! carbs except a little before lifting. Really tired and drained out, but I can see my belly going in

WEEK ACCOMPLISHMENTS
Good deads, good bench. Feeling good
WEEK DOWNFALLS
Bad leg workout, but I'm greatfull that I haven't injured myself. No pain
GOALS
Keep up the good lifts, and loose some fat

 

[Winter]

Nice work bro, damn, 175x15 sounds tough.

 

[MANOWAR]

Thanks bro. Tough for a little guy like me, not for you lol

My partner said my form was perfect so this was good

 

[adidamps2]

nice work MoW ..oh and next time take a dump before you go lift..lol

 

[MANOWAR]

Adidas, lol yeah thanks man. I took a huge one today before squatting, but I was tired since I was out on the road for the last 3 days. Will edit in a few minutes.

Thanks Winter

 

[Winter]

When was your last workout ManOWar?

 

[MANOWAR]

An hour ago

 

[Winter]

Nice chest work & grats on the bench PR.

For your leg day, I think you should do your heavy sets then do the 20repper. This'll help you hit bigger weights on your heavy sets and you'll get better results, IMO.

 

[MANOWAR]

Yeah I'll try something like that. Only thing is I can't go too heavy cuz doc said no heavy weights. But I'm sure they won't hurt.

Anyway bench wasn't a PR lol. Won't be hitting PRs till I pass 250. But I am gaining really really fast, I'll be there in aboot 6 weeks

 

[Winter]

Bro, I'd like to workout with you again, I remember last year during the summers when we would push each other so much that we hit PRs every fuckin workout haha. I'll give you a ring next time I workout, but not tomorrow since i"m going to LA.

 

[MANOWAR]

Yeah man those were good times. Only thing is I work everyday all day. But, I'll im you and see if we can work things out. When school starts I'm gonna start going at like 4 everyday, cuz Louis (the big guy that benches 450+) is gonna be there. I'm loosing my partner, so if me and you could lift then, it would be awsome. I remember you used to go in the evening at like 7, but it gets way too crouded. Let me know

 

[Winter]

Is Louis the guy that only benches? There are a few guys at Gotham that put up pretty big weight. I know of about 3 that can put up over 330 at gotham; one has kind of a gut and is losing his hair and only benches and two guys that workout together that are pretty damn big.

 

[MANOWAR]

Yeah I know what you meen. But no Louis is big into powerlifting. He hardly benches at all. He does dips with 4 plates +. He does everything, overtrains a little but thats his thing.

 

[AngryMuscles]

hey mano. good avatar

 

[SteelSouth]

Nice work MOW, congrats on the PR.

 

[MANOWAR]

Thanks JT. Pretty good week. Todays speed workout was good, but I'm just really tired from no carbs.
Next week will be good. Not working everyday so I'll have a nice rest.

 

[MANOWAR]

Mmm today I pulled 175 for 20. It was really hard. Will edit log tomorow.

I'm still tired from the deads hah
