Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
It would really be helpful if you guys posted workouts with reps and sets, as I am trying to get back into lifting again since being "completely rehabilitated."

Today I did some back exercises that my strength coach sent me via smoke signal:
Wide grip lat pull downs 4x5
V grip row 4x5
Seated row machine (close grip) 4x5
Bent over row (3x5)
regular pull ups 3x6/8
I don't know what a stupid spider curl is, but I did zottman curls and barbell curls

Finished each exercise with a failure set. Gonna go for a smoak nowww

Re: Pumping Iron with Zemekone and Icehog3 II
 
Hey Tom, my back was bothering me a lot, so I ended up doing:
warm up
3x flat barbell 10,6,4: 135, 185, 205
3x decline barbell 8, 6, 4, 2, 2: 135, 185, 205, 225, 225
4x pec machine flye 10, 8, 8, 8: 160, 180, 200, 200
then stairmasters for 15 minutes for 250 calories.

I took some advil after for the lower back. It really inflames after back/legs exercises (two days ago).

My trainer sent me lies via text re his pwo meal. I almost followed through but glad I didn't.

Got back on a pwo supplement. Pretty much haven't used one since the ban. Tried 1MR. Felt good nothing extraordinary. Miss original jack3d.

Working on getting my shoulder pressing up. Really think my grip strength is limiting me on everything else. Need to fix that.

Never have truly "good" days with shoulders anymore, Huy, it's more bad days and BAD days. Trying to keep shoulders light enough to get lots of reps and a good range of motion, seems to improve my range of motion over time...but still have the occassional day like today.
