Thinking about trying 3 on 2 off for a spell instead of my usual 4 on 1 off. Maybe the rest will do me good?

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
That's what I've been doing for a few months bc of Mason. I spend a little longer at the gym but it gives me a good amount of rest time. I would like to say that my strength has gone up but I'm sure it's bc of the surplus in calories.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
Thanks, Huy, I'm going to try if for a while, though I might go nuts if two days off from work coincide with two days off from the gym. I'm gonna need a hobby. :r

Feels pretty good after 4 reps with 345, Huy. Hopefully it's still in one piece tomorrow.

Took a deload week and cheat week at the same time LOL ... i feel like i undid everything that i'd worked for over the last month and a half :/

Back at it tomorrow ... still working around my lower back and shoulder but since it's my first week back from deload it'll be a re-intro week anyway and i'll be careful to not push the injuries too hard.

Chest & hammies tomorrow :)

Adriftpanda 11-08-2015 10:20 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
Good luck Charlie, hope the injuries are better.

Nice workout, Huy.

Did just three exercises today, seated militarys, preacher curls and skullcrushers. Wasn't motivated going in, but got a nice workout by switching it up.

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
Nice volume Huy!

Sometimes making it to the gym is the victory, Tom. Although it doesn't look like it was a bad workout.

LOL yeah Huy ... started out as a clean cheat week (adding some healthier carbs) and ended up in full on Root Beer & Smores by the campfire for the last couple days. I did a quick body-weight workout at home once and did a quick shoulder session one day but otherwise I didn't work out. I still walked a good bit and this past weekend we did a lot of hiking up at Hocking Hills so at least I wasn't completely stagnant while cheating.

Though I achieved a tremendous bloat, I can tell that it'll only take me this week, give or take a day or two, to lose all the swelling.

I'm super pumped to be back in the saddle today though! Already planned/prepped my meals and am about 15min out from breakfast. :)

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
Got in a good "welcome back" chest/tri/hammy lift today.
Chest : press machine / incline press / cable flys / decline cable flys
Tris : cable pulldowns / dip machine / overhead cable extensions / close grip flat bench
Hammies : wide sumo DL's / leg curls

Also back on low carb today ... a bit high for my usual diet (60g so far) but I've already got the carb pee's so I know it's already taking affect.

When you guys carb restrict, how aggressive are you?

Tom, Huy, How'd your lifts go?

icehog3 11-09-2015 04:52 PM

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
Today I was off, Charlie. Sounds like a good day for you.

I generally try to take in 50-75% of my carbs for the day in my first meal, and go super low carbs after that. Might tweak it if I know I have a bunch of ice time in addition to the gym in the next few days, but that is generally how I do it.

Adriftpanda 11-10-2015 10:46 AM

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
Off day yesterday as well.

I eat every meal with carbs. Like Tom, I will tweak things around depending on my day and what I have planned for the night but as far as consuming carbs, I eat carbs almost every meal, 40-50g.

Of course that is right now, after thanksgiving, I will hit around 140-150. Right now I'm consuming around 300-320g
