Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

haha, I did that once too.. I drooled half my pre-workout on my shirt lol

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

sounds like a date! cigars and deadlifts?

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Watch out with Huy, he might wanna throw HJs in the mix.... :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

so? :)

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Hahah I'm not so easy. Tom, you have to buy me Mexican food before any Js are done.

One more week, then we get some good Mexican food.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

does that mean, in cryptic, that in one more week he gets a HJ?

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

I see what you did there, Huy. :r

Leg day, hammered out reps of presses at 645, finished with some hammy curls and stiff legged deadlifts. Me sore.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Suppose to take the day off but the inlaws told me to go, not gonna say no.

Chest and some abs

Incline BB
Incline DB
Fly machine
Cable flies

Did everything 10-14 reps except for incline bb. Wanted to test my strength because I've been on a deficit. Yeah, 185 felt heavy.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Your Inlaws told you that you should go work out?

Today was a little bit of fasted cardio in the morning followed by PT and then eating like a hog lol

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Only thing my ex-MIL ever told me to do was to go **** myself. :D

Tomorrow is an off day, then the full body over 4 days, and then 6 days off. Don't really want to take 6 days off...so that means it's coming at a good time. :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Yeah, they told me to go because they wanted to Mason on a walk.

Hahah that made me laugh, Tom!

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

About to go hit some shoulders and calves :)

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Get it, Charlie!

Scheduled day off for me. See you in a week, Huy!

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Heads up, amino energy by ON is on sale through groupon. $30 for 2 30 servings.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Thanks Huy! :tu

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

20 minutes on the elliptical followed by leg day. oi ve

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

killer back day yesterday following a low weight, high rep shoulder day on Thursday

Back is usually not my strongpoint, but I felt great, and the gf killed it. So far, I am down 20lbs on my cut and the GF is down 13lbs, and its amazing the strength she still has.

The crappy part about cutting, IMO, is that I want to lift heavy, but training myself to dip down a little bit to 60-75% to prevent injury is the hard part.. more of a mental mindf*ck.. lol

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

She's lookin' good, Ron. :tu

ICD......last chest workout until 4/4.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

thanks man,. so proud of her..!

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good work, Rons gf :)

Legs today, decided to squat. Felt like I haven't hit squats in a while. It's probably close to a month. Combination of my back and knee, so I gave it a rest.

Today it was okay, went light and hit for reps.

Warmed up with leg extensions and seated leg curls 4x15+
Squats 5x12+ @225, it felt light but I didn't want to push it heavier.
Leg press 5x12+
Lying leg curls - seated leg extensions 3x15

Oh! Did side delts too.

Seated DB side delt raise 4x12+
Bb upright row (wide grip, medium grip, close grip) 4x10+ so basically a **** load of reps.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good work, Huy, and lots of it.

Heading in to row, row, row my lats, (not so) gently by the stream.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

No juice, no motivation, half-assed back workout today with a gym fulla douchenozzles. Guess this 6 day break may be coming at a good time.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Not a good way to start your break....

Going to go hard this week before SD.

Back and some quick bis today.

Seated row - stiff arm lat pull down
Seated row machine
Benter over BB row revers grip (went light and did a crap load of sets)
V-grip pull ups - wide grip pull down

bb curl in the squat rack just because no one was using it
incline db curls

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

it was a wonderful morning for some triceps workout.

one of my technicians came this morning. I think i wore him out. lol Let 's see if he comes back tomorrow.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

I have shoulders today.. I think im gonna do a full shoulder workout this time; first since the partial tear discovery.. we will see what happens. f*k it.. lol

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Good work, fellas. Good luck, Ron. You'll be fine brotha.

Had a fun day at Disneyland with the kiddo and wife. Stayed on point all day up till dinner time.

Couple more days of training before my short vacation. Legs tonight.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

thanks bud.. wish I could join you fellas for a smoke! and gosh knows I could use some sun! getting tired of this cold weather!

enjoy guys!

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Had a great shoulder session today. Went for a trail run tonight. Suppose it's the least I could do after the absolute dietary debacle that have been the last 2 weeks. I'm swollen like a beached whale. LOL

Week 4 of my DL program and there's no DL'ing ... just low back accessory work. So i'll do arms tomorrow and do some HIIT on saturday.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3
 

Lackluster leg day. Trained a bit later than I wanted so I didn't take any pwo. I just pushed through tonight, even tried to hit FST 7 to off set my training.

Leg day for everyone at the gym, so I did smith machine squat for the first time ever.

Smith machine squat (close stance)
Leg extensions
Stuff leg deads
Leg press (FST7)
Lying leg curls

Did some quick abs.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

did a 45 minute shoulder workout yesterday, but I literally worked out for 44 minutes of that timeframe. I supersetted everything, managed to not die, and I had a crazy pump, and most of importantly, I didn't die.. woot!

6 total sets of db press
6 sets of lat side raises

3 sets of wide grip front raises
3 sets of db front raises

4 sets of barbell press
4 sets of standing db rear delt raises

4 sets of busdrivers
4 sets of shrugs

wheew

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

I think that not dying is the key lol

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

lol.. concur!

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 

Since I wasn't supposed to DL today ... I did 3x1 @ 500 lol

Finished up with some adductor work and some kick backs. Gassed!
