Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I feel your pain, Charlie. Just do the best you can.
Felt like a wimp today doing chest. Gonna take a few weeks to get it back, me thinks. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Legs today. Felt flat and tired but a decent day.
Squats Pause squats Stiff leg deads using the hack squat machine Single leg lying curls Seated extensions - tried to get at least 120 reps in. Hit some core after. |

Flat DB Hammer strength ISO press Incline fly machine Seated cable press Dips After the DB press, everything was for higher reps with super slow contractions. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Nice, Huy.
Back day today. Went a little heavier than last time, with a few more reps, so headed in the right direction. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Didn't want to wake up today, I was too comfortable wrapped up in my blanket. Would have been kicked out by the Softball team anyway.
Yesterday Chest: Incline x3 Flat x3 Laying fly's x3 cable flys for upper and lower chest x3 Legs, Squats x3 Light dead's x3 Hip flexor machine all four directions x3 |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Good stuff fellas!
Box squatted yesterday. Worked up to a single @ 275 w/o pain so that's good news. My bench continued to be the worst bench of all time lol. I'm working a lot on form but i'm still rly weak at it. Today my top set was 205x2. My shoulder and elbow were feeling kinda banged up but none the less, that's pretty dang weak lol |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Good work, Greg and Charlie. Charlie, when I come back from stuff, my bench is always the slowest exercise for me to regain strength in. My bench today was pitiful, but I just stick with it, hoping it will get better over time the way it always has in the past. Never want to think this is finally the time age catches up and it never comes back. :r

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Sounds like some good work, Huy. :tu
I have back tomorrow, at least I know I usually have good days on back day. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Good work Huy.
I hear ya Tom ... though i'm not as strong as you, back day is easily my most confidence inspiring day. Always leave the gym feeling good after a back session. Today is an off day so i'll just do 15min on the bike and 15min on the treadmill, to keep the hips and knees loose. Tomorrow is deadlift day! :) |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Enjoy the mostly off day, Charlie, get ready to kill those deads.
I'm off to the gym to row dem lats. :ze |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I'm beat. Legs kicked my ass.
Front skwaats Angled leg press Single leg lying curls - single leg extensions Walking BB lunges - f these. I almost hurled, seriously. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Nice work. Your sample goes out tomorrow,Tom.
My body was in a funk today. Had planned on hitting shoulders and some core work but my left bicep was sore, calves were sore and my mind wasn't into it. Napped for3 hours! |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Too funny, Huy, today was supposed to be shoulders for me as well, and I skipped the gym too. I'll toss shoulders in tomorrow or Saturday with other parts.
Looking foward to getting JAZZED, Man! :D |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
smashed shoulders today.
standing single arnold presses, worked up to 75lb for 4x behind neck seated presses bb upright row - think i hit 10 sets db side delt raise - bb front raise zot curls bb curls - reverse bb curls seated preacher curl machine nice focus and good shoulder pump today. hope you smashed it too tom. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I decided to throw shoulders into tomorrow's workout, Huy, but I did smash arms. Smashed 'em good. Glad we both did some smashin'! :D
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Legs today: mainly in the squat rack.
Getting warmed up. Gym DB: yo, how many sets you have left Me: warming up, haven't even started DB: how many sets? Me: I don't know, may be a while. DB: like how many sets is that? Me: annoyed at this point* I don't know man, like 15 sets DB: pshhh come on, bull Me: you want to count my sets and reps? I'll be tired, so I won't be able to count This guy is your typical gym douche. Slams all the weights and never reracks his ****. So I literally worked up to 315 with incremanets of 10lb at a time to piss him off. Squats - lots of it Leg press Good mornings And finished off with some abs |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
That's awesome, Huy! :D :lr
Chest yesterday and back today. Strength improving slowly, but endurance is coming along so I am encouraged. Shoulders and legs tomorrow, think I'll do 75 sets on the leg press if there's any DBs around. :D |

Some light work this week. Chest and legs yesterday and shoulders and biceps this morning. Waking up so early in the morning sucks. |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I've dropped a few dumbbells in my day too, Greg, but like you, always rerack.
Put off shoulders until today, legs gassed me yesterday. Delts, tris and bis today. Strongest and most endurance I've had on shoulders since getting back. Did good, but so gassed by the time I got to bis I just did some moderate preacher curls and some light barbell curls. |

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I have slammed a few myself but it was almost out of my control. Rack your ****, that's all and be respectful, don't stand right in front of me to do your DB shrugs.
Solid back and some tri day: Pull ups Close grip pull downs BB row Seated wide grip row Single arm DB row (I do these without any leverage. Forces me to go slower and focus more on my last) Shawn Ray straight bar extensions Single arm DB overhead extensions Dips |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I wouldn't stand in front of you and do shrugs, you might try to tickle my taint. ;)
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Taint tickling is the fastest way to Gainz!
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I had a Shepherd named Ganz, Charlie, but no one dared tickle his taint. :)
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
I'm sure there aren't many days that goes by when you don't think of Gamz, Tom. :(
Quick legs tonight, wife wanted to tag along so I couldn't stay long. Legs are usually my longest days too. Squats - I think I only did 3 working sets Pause squats - 2 working sets Leg press - lying leg curls 4-5 working swts |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Good work as usual, Huy. :tu
ICD here, glad it's not Monday. ;) |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Gonna hit some chest and shoulders today -- hoping to hit some big bench numbers. Trying to close in on a 1500lb total for the three lifts. So close, but still a ton of work before I get there.
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Good endurance day on chest, still got a ways to go to get my strength back though.
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Nice! Hope the samples get to you tomorrow, Tom.
Quick shoulder day, had to take Mason to see the docs today. Hes been coughing like he's been smoking cigarettes for 30 years. Luckily, everything checked out and he's okay, no infections or anything. Anyway: here's my shoulders day OHP BB upright row Single arm standing Arnold presses Side delt raise DB Some quick biceps too, just kept t simple. Seated DB curls, reverse BB curls |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II

|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II

|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Some back and abs
Pull ups Wide grip Pull downs Reverse grip pull downs DB rows Seated wide grip rows Nice day of training so I rewarded myself with tacos, brownies, pumpkin cheesecake, and Japanese mochi. At least I was conservative and had a diet soda :) |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Realized I messed up and ordered BSL Dust V2 and not Dust Extreme, Was able to cancel the first order, and got two tubs of Extreme. :wo
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
2? You're crazy
One thing, it taste like crap |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Taste didn't bother me, but I had it mixed with some Vasky for a pump and some ON BCAAs for extra protein.
And yeah, I'm crazy. :r |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Took a day off, I think a day off was much needed after 13 on
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
13? I'd say so!
Off day for me too, after two in a row. :r |
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II

|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Hitting back tonight and arms tonight
|
Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
Elbow and shoulder were singing the blues right from the outset today. Gutted it out for a pretty decent back workout, but put shoulders off until tomorrow or Friday. Got under the bar for some seated presses and said "**** it". :lr
|

Shoulders and a little tricep today. Elbow felt okay but still a little sore.
BB press single arm (never done these before, felt great though) Seated Arnold presses DB side delt raise - front raise BB side delt raise Overhead press machine (did 3-4 second negatives, what a pump) Seated DB overhead extension DB kickback And 2x dips to failure |
