Squat-tastic, Bob! :ze

I was scheduled for a cardio day today but woke up feeling nauseous. I'll throw in cardio tomorrow after chest. Sh!t, tomorrow is Monday, isn't it? :hn :r

ICM - And I got everything as I needed it, with one crazy exception below.

30* inclines x 4 sets
Bench press x 4 sets
Wide inclines x 4 sets
Flyes x 4 sets
Vertical bench x 3 sets
Wide declines x 3 sets

While I was on the flye machine, a kid (who either (1) didn't speak English and/or (2) is somewhat mentally challenged) sat there staring. I asked if he wanted to work in, then made some hand gestures and kept trying to make hi understand. He finally jumped in... only to keep adjusting the machine between flyes and rear delt flyes and doing 4-5 reps of each, back and forth. I tried to tell him it was "my turn" after 2 sets, but he didn't acknowledge me or move. Only way I could have gotten him off was to put my hands on, and I knew that would be a bad idea. I did a couple sets of the vertical bench in between. :lr

ICM for me as well last night.

Dips
Dumbbell flat bench
Dumbbell Incline bench
Icarian Press
Incline dumbbell curls
Hammer curls (ran that rack)

I feel like I"m missing something in there for chest.

Always feels awkward working out at a different gym. Learning what equipment they have, space, etc. Plan is to hit up back/tris tonight.

icehog3 09-24-2019 07:52 AM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Different gyms can be crazy. Different grips on dumbbells or bars, different widths on benches... little things that can throw you off in a big way.

Back day today. Formulating my plan now.

Thinking I'll take today off, give my body a chance to rest. My legs are still sore from Saturday's workout, especially my calves. I did'nt think I loaded up the bar THAT heavy on the calf raises. :D

icehog3 09-25-2019 04:20 PM

No more free gym for me. So just been doing some basic complexes and squats at home. Bought a steel chain from orchard, before they went out of business, and using that for additional weight around my neck. Feels good to start back up little pain in back but screw it push on through.

icehog3 09-28-2019 10:01 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
I think we must have a picture with you and the chain around your neck, Greg. :hn :r

Shoulders today

OHP, strict movement so lighter weight. Try and take the legs out of it.
Arnolds
Rear Delt Flyes
Cable 21's for shoulders
Face Pulls

Saw the idea for the cable 21's (or tri set) online. Position cable low. First move, bent over at waist, cable going across body. Straight arm, lifting to the side to hit the rears. Next move, standing straight at a slight angle, cable behind back. Again straight arm, lift to isolate the mid delt. Last position, cable at side (and slightly behind) and facing forward. Lift to isolate front delt. Lit them up pretty good.

icehog3 10-02-2019 04:56 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Nice lifts, Bob. :tu

I had a couple things to do this morning / early afternoon, so today was a day off. ICT tomorrow.

Not a good day at the shithole gym.

Decided to prefatigued with cables today for back and go relatively light on rows after.

Did 5 good heavy sets of cable rows.

Put 200 on the pulldown stack and starting pulling rep 1 of set 1. Cable snapped about 18 inches up from the bar, I went flying back, bar hit me in the chest. The porter from the gym was right behind me and saw it happen.

Took a few minutes, back felt only slightly tweaked, so I finished the workout with light T-bars and some other light rowing. Didn't make it any worse, but it's stiffening up now that I'm cooling down. Hopefully no big deal. Management at the gym didn't seem too concerned, but I had them do a report, just in case. And an employee as a witness. Gym has gone downhill in a big way the last few months.

Chainsaw13 10-04-2019 05:41 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Damn. That had to be quite a shock. Hopefully you didn’t hurt yourself.

B ack definitely stiffened up some after I cooled down...especially being on my feet for 5 hours afterwards at school. Hopefully it's fine tomorrow.

Yeah, it was a shock. I tossed the bar about 8 feet in disgust as I lay on my back on the floor. :r

Crazy thing was, back workout wasn't bad afterwards. Lots of reps with the lighter weights.

Chainsaw13 10-05-2019 11:33 AM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Got ya covered Tom. Good back day this morning with my trainer.

Trap bar deadlifts. New PR of 300lbs. Easy Peasy. Glad we didn’t go for more, feeling it in the knee.
One arm rows, went heavy.
Narrow grip pulldowns, heavy again
Lat pullovers
Tri pushdowns
Tri kick backs
Dead hangs, trying to stretch out the lats.

icehog3 10-06-2019 09:08 AM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Excellent back day I'd say, Bob. :tu

Back is still a bit tight, going to give it a go today though.

icehog3 10-06-2019 05:58 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Shoulders and tris today. Kept it short to let me lower back loosen up, and to keep the hip flexor that apparently got injured from getting worse:

Seated military x 7 sets
Rear delt flyes x 5 sets
Skullcrushers x 4 sets
Extensions x 4 sets

Tomorrow scheduled legs and bis...have to see how that hip flexor is feeling, I have a bad feeling Imma hafta skip a leg day. :(

icehog3 10-07-2019 03:53 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Skipped legs this go-round, just want this hip flexor or whatever it is to get better. It's better this evening, took some Aleve (after buying some :r) and it's already better. Must just be inflammation.

Did bis seated today. Two different styles of preacher curls and some concentration curls. Hoping the pain won't affect me much on chest tomorrow.

icehog3 10-08-2019 02:16 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Back in normal and hip flexor is much better after a couple rounds of Aleve. ICT was a heavy one.

30* inclines x 4 sets
Wide inclines x 4 sets
Vertical bench x 3 sets
Flyes x 4 sets
Declines x 3 sets
Precor incline x 4 sets (4 different angles).

Chainsaw13 10-08-2019 06:43 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
ICT, plus some bi’s for good measure.

Push-ups/plank pyramid prefatigue
Seated flyes, lots of them
Flat bench
Dumbbell flat bench
Dumbbell incline bench
Seated 21’s
Hammer curls

I can’t feel my arms. Lol. Worked on a lot of flyes to see if we can’t further activate my left side. The pinched nerve is messing with the mind/muscle connection.

icehog3 10-09-2019 09:13 AM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Good lift, Bob. Hoping that left side keeps improving.

Back day for me. Imma be a little gun shy on the pulldowns, I'll definitely use the station where the cable snapped on me Friday. It's got the newest cable. ;) :r

Chainsaw13 10-09-2019 10:36 AM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Give that machine hell, Tom. :ze

I"m planning on going in tonight after work for legs. It is squatober after all.

icehog3 10-09-2019 05:14 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Adriftpanda,Chainsaw13 and Icehog3 II
 
Nice, Bob. I think my hip flexor has healed enough for legs next leg day.

I used the machine I "broke" Friday and told all my buddies to use it too, it's the only relatively safe one right now. :r

Barbell rows x 7 sets
T-bar rows x 5 sets
High pulls x 4 sets
Rear delt flyes x 4 sets

I was planning to go in today for back. But worked at the office, which took forever to get home. And the spicy poke bowl I had for lunch is exacting revenge.
