Rules Log of Death

Rules

Strong as Lead
I'm startin a new routine (with some guidance from PullinBig). I took the last 4 days off from liftin. This is the 1st day... I don't have a workout partner yet appearently Squats at 7AM doesn't appeal to most.

Weight:
148

Squat:
255x5
255x2

Leg Press:
4(45)+25x5
4(45)+25x4

Calve Raises:
6(45)+25x5
6(45)+25x5

Overall the volume was super low... I don't feel the full body tiredness or drain I used to get from my super overtraining volume workout but I sure as shit can't lift anymore leg today.
 
OK got a workout partner, he is pretty good at spotting. Had to modify the recomended workout to fit what my gym has... ie no weighted dips and no decline.

Weight:
148

Wide Grip Bench:
185x6
185x4+(2 assisted)

Incline Medium Grip:
125x6
125x5+(1 assisted)

Skull Crushers:
35x10
35x4+(2 assisted)

Upright Row:
35x8+(2 cheat)
35x6+(4 really cheat)

Overall feelin good. Think I would like to add somthing like military press to this day but I will go with this for now.
 
Weight:
147

Deads:
245x5
245x5

Bent over Wide Grip Row:
135x4
135x4

Narrow Reverse Grip Pulldown:
110x8
110x6

Wide Grip Barbell Curl:
85x4 (1 assisted)
85x4 (2 assisted)

Overall feelin dead. Dead lifts first really makes the other back work awsome... I changed the number of reps for the work sets on curls to suit my personal experience, seems about right. I will be hurting tommorow :eek:
 
Weight:
147

Squat:
255x5
255x5 :rolleyes:

Leg Press:
5(45)x6
5(45)x4

Seated Calve Raises:
2(45)+25x15
2(45)+25x15

Sweet, I made my reps at 255!! although I felt it in my back really strong on the last 2 reps wich probably means I fell forward somthing fierce... Still I think I am good to go up. I think I like the 5 rep leg press better, so I will do that next week. All in all a decent day.

Upright Row:
35x8
35x5+(3 cheat)

Well I made my bench reps!!! woo hooo!!! Up I go, I think I'll give 195 a try as opposed to just going up 5lbs. Tons of little fuckers in the gym today (the row team) so I was all distracted during my first bench work set, but I came back strong. Man I hate the row team, thier coach is like 5'11" and 115lbs, never touched a weight in his life and he is giving advice on how to do SLDLs with a belt? On a sad note I think I pulled my bicep (where it inserts to the forarm) but I am not sure how. All I know is it hurts like a mofo but i think it will be better for Thursday.
 
Weight:

Deads:
265x5

145x4

Narrow Reverse Grip Pulldown:

85x4

Today my form sucked Donkey shit... my back was slightly round for the Dead lifts, i was slightly more upright than i like to be for rows, and my last 2 curls were a bit questionable in form. Oh well thats what you get for jumping up in weight. Next week baby, yeah!!
 
Weight:

Leg Press:
5(45)+10x4

Way too much warm up!! I should have thought my warm up sets through more carefully. Almost puked after leg press, twas awsome.
 
OK, OK... maybe not fat but I am 15% BF (thats the worst I've ever been). :rolleyes:

Fighting off a bit of a pull in my left bicep... its really suckin but I have an off week scheduled for ThanksGiving. Tough workout with the move up in weight. Hands kept slippin out while doing wide grip bench, need chalk or a less wide grip. All in all feelin big.. @150 lbs.

Again Back was slightly round on Deads, but they felt much better. Probably won't go up in weight till I fix the form at this weight. Bent over row was awsome, up I go!! Curls were disappointing but with the increases in pull down weight it seem reasonable. I'll nail it next week.

Stupid me, I forgot that bench was a 6 rep exercise... I think I could have made the reps the first time. I'm starting to get concerned about the skull crushers moving down in weight, although I still think it's cause of the move up in bench reps.

"Can't wait for my week off", what a fuckin fag!!! I will never take a week off again (even thought the gym was closed), lifts sucked. Took forever between sets cause I was very close to pukin, form on squat was awsome up till last set where it totaly fell apart. All in all I felt like shit, on the plus side the vending machine man gave me a free cookie :goof:

What a shit day... excuse me while I cry like a baby but I feel fat and I'm a shit load weaker than when I took my vacation. I'm not sure what this loss in strength after a week off means about my body but I think it has to do with a fast recovery time. Oh well curls were disapointing, deads where not perfect form. Plus no breakfast due to a power outage screwing my alarm :sleep2: Enough :soap:

No Focus on 1st work set of squat, but the form felt good and the depth was decent... I may go back down to 225 and work on form, I intend to post vids of my lift next week so dependent on how bad the form looks (and the reviews are) will determin if I drop down in weight.

Hmmmm... why did I bench 190? How do you get 190 on a bar? Did I use 2 1/2 lb plates? Nope, my fuck up of a lifting partner didn't put on the correct weight... that pretty much set the tone for the workout. This guy needs to chill the fuck out, always runnin around runnin off to do curls or some bull shit when he should be spotting, fuckin spots suck now to... now when I am failing he just grabs the bar and trys to lift it for me. Damn I had a talk with him today but he just doen't get it. I am really fuckin pissed. Can i swear in this thread? does anyone actually read this thread? Fuck Fuckidy Fuck Fuck Fuck, whats the big fuckin deal. FUCK!!
