Max Effort Legs & Back

Warmups and stretches

Good mornings:
45 x 10
95 x 8
135 x 5
185 x 5
225 x 3
275 x 3
295 x 2
315 x 3
335 x 3
365 x 1 (New PR [and a 50lb one at that]!!! Last PR was set last week with a 315 x 5. This time, the first rep was clean; second rep was bad form, so I'm not counting it. Funny thing is that when the guy who works there came over to spot me, he was like "You're gonna do good mornings with THIS?!?" I laughed, told him "just one," explained it was part of Westside, etc. I'm pretty sure he thought I was gonna fail out on the attempt. :r )

Partial deadlifts: 135 x 8 x 3 (second set was 185; but form was bad; so I'm not counting)

Pulldown abs: 12, 10, 10, 8 reps

Ghetto reverse hypers: 10r x 4s (these aren't working anymore -- I go up too high without weight on my feet ... almost flipped over :r)

Captain's chair leg raises: 10r x 4s

Did some stretching and took a soft bar and rolled out my leg and arm muscles a little, which felt real good. I need to buy a foam roller for prehab/rehab work....

Hope everyone has a good day lifting!!! :ze

A good cardio workout this morning. 800m run for a warm up, then:

400m row
25 situps
20 air squats
15 pushups

5 rounds took me just over 22 min. Got a nice little sweat going.

Good luck!!

P90X is a great program. Those workouts are intense.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Visited the doc on Friday, told me I have tendonitis in my knees. Gave me some anti-inflammatories and suggested I ease up on lifting a bit. So, I am taking the week off and will start back next weekend. Think I am going to have to change the workup up as well. I wanted to continue with the full-body for at least another month or month and a half, as I'm starting to see some good results with the current split, but I guess I need to go easier on my knees. So, going to go with a body part split starting this weekend. Makes me sad, as I really like the full-body workouts. On the plus side, it will let me get back to 4 days/week, so I will do chest, back, shoulder/ab and leg days, with two real exercises and one or two support on each day. Hopefully I'll actually be able to do this for long enough to see something happen. :confused:

Eff... with the Marine Corps Marathon 3 weeks out I figured a run of a respectable length was in order. So I skipped out on Squats, Overhead Press, and Deadlifts to put in 11 miles the old fashioned way. My body (particularly my hip flexors and right butt cheek) hate me, but I didn't do too shabby (managed a 7:35 pace for those 11 and felt pretty good at the end). The good news is, I'm running the MCM with my girlfriend so I'll get to run it at her pace.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Just don't let her beat you...ughh...I'm still not hearing the end of that one :D

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Haha thanks for the advice :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

In your case you aren't using straps to hide a weakness. At the level you are at in lifting I'm sure using aids, likes straps, benefits you more then it hinders you. Enough beating that dead horse.

Leg day today. Back Squats, Deadlift, Glute ham raises, and some calf work. Felt extra saucy so I did a few more sets then normal.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3

The horse is off the hook. :)

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

I love seeing stuff like this :banger This kind of workouts makes the strongest of men weep like school girls.

100 pullups with 50lbs is amazing. I'm trying to get to 100 with just my body weight, I'm getting close. I could probably do 5 pullups with 50lbs strapped on me :tu
