Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Not sure what it was, just really deep soreness feeling better though. I figure Ill take a few days off hit it on tuesday see how things are going

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Good to hear bro.
If your feeling in the mood, I just picked up one of those roll on icy hot tubes. That stuff is rather intense. Compared to the horse grade crap I have used in the past, its rather strong. 15% menthol. Might be worth grabbing some, get into that deep soreness.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Apparently I have patelar tendonitis in my right knee, and to a much lesser extent in my left. Doc gave me a strap to wear that will change how the tendon takes pressure. Used it this morning for a somewhat heavy squat/dead day. Felt ok.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Get some icy hot and advil.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

I have icy hot and will use it more regularly. He prescribed some naproxen, so advil is out for me until this is done, both NSAIDs - does nothing but mess with your liver. Knee feels better after frequent stretching, even after lifting fairly heavy on it.

Deloading week started today with some flat bench, incline bench, cable flys and 21s.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Maybe instead of deloading, just take a planned week off.
Squats tonight. New guys I'm training with Squat and Pull on the same day. Going to give it a go tonight see how it works out. I've only been training 3 days a week recently. So Mil presses will have to be added either on bench night, or on assistance day.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

I took a week off about a month ago, and I seem to be feeling better lifting on it and using it more, than not. I'm supposed to start seeing a physical therapist this week, so I'll see what (s)he has to say about it.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Squatting and Pulls tonight.
Squats 505x2,2,2 Had a lot of form issues. They will need some attention
Pulled 515x2 Gased
Pull 515+doubled bands x 0 almost pulled it.
GHR
Reverse Hyper
Abs

I Honestly felt like I only gave 85% tonight. But I did not want to totally destroy myself. It's very different squatting then pulling. But during a meet your deadlift will always be performed with not much left in the tank. Makes sense I suppose.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Deload week continuted with back/tricep work today. Good to get the blood flowing.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Much needed off day for me...back at it tomorrow.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Back at it after taking time off for travel and recovery after the travel. Felt okay in there today -- just squats, kneeling squats, deadlifts, and pull-down abs.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Haven't lifted in a week. Finally starting to recover from a little bit of sickness, and soreness in the peck...Kinda going through some ideas of how I want to approach the next weeks

I need some new ideas for working out. I'm just getting bored Anyone have anything

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

I have a goiter. :r

You have the knowledge, Brother, just switch it up and do a program you haven't done for a long time to get back into it mentally...the physical part is easy for you.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Light shoulders and a little abs today. Standing press, upright rows, seated press, followed by leg raises. I really don't want to be at work today.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

chest, upper back, shoulders, and arms today. nothing stellar ... but I'm happy to be doing it again. I'll probably just do some cardio this weekend and repeat one day lower, one day upper next week since I leave for Ohio on Tuesday afternoon. :td
