First half-gassed workout this morning in a long time....Just didn't have any drive. Been making nice gains for months, guess my body is telling me to take a day off tomorrow. Hockey game tonight, so maybe I can sleep in tomorrow before work.

Very nice Dave :tu Maybe we'll inspire you to get into 34's one of these days!

You must have sent the drive to me.. I had a great workout, extra sets and great intensity for me today. We all have off days here and there Pops.

:tu Glad someone found it, Son!

I am not complaining, continuous strength gains for months, everything healthy (knocks on wood)....one bad day ain't gonna bring me down. :)

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

I've been golfing nearly every day and taking it a little easier with the lifting. Still getting it in, just not super intense. I am dropping some pounds so it's all good. Glad to hear everyone seems to be kicking ass at the gym!

For today only - http://www.muscleandstrength.com/store/white-flood.html
because I knew some of you use it.

Monday started by 5th week of Rippetoe's SS. Squat is up to 200, deadlift to 230. Presses are still weak, but getting better. Time for a pre-w/o snack before hitting again today.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Added leg lifts (30) to the routine a week or 2 ago. Hurts! But notice a difference in core definition/having a core around the middle vs a tire. Starting to see parts of me that have been buried for many years.

Nice squat! :D

......wow, I knew my workout was missing something.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Did the math today and some interpretation based upon all the formulas etc.

Start april

260 Lbs. - 34% body fat

Today

214 lbs. - 19.4% body fat

Realistic goal

210 lbs. - 18.1% body fat

If I get a tapeworm

200 lbs. - 13.8% body fat :)

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

go with the tape worm dave...

Joined a gym today. Now I need to get some workout clothes.

What time of the day do you all usually take your weight?

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

I only weigh myself once a week or so, Dan. Day to day flucuations can be based on many factors, and can be either frustrating or an illusion. I think the weekly weigh in will give a truer picture to progress in terms of weight change.

Also remember that sometimes the mirror, tape measure and bodyfat testing are better measures of progress than the scale.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

I do the same as Tom for the weighing. Weighing yourself everyday can be a big downer

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Thanks Admiral and Christos :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Ran 4.5 miles then followed up with 10 sets of 20 yard sprints...

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
