Exodus and Trinity7 DE day 5-19

[Exodus]

Well to keep the sanity of our marriage together. trinity does her upperbody days on the days i do my lowerbody and vice versa. that way i get to help her without us killing each other.

My DE Upperbody.

Speed Bench - 180 x 10 sets of 3. then 270 for 1. and 280 for 1.

Decline Elbow out ext - 45's x 4 sets of 3.

Side db delt raises - 20's x 3 sets of 10.

db chest presses - 35lb x 2 sets of 20.


Trinity7 ( first time ever doing wsb - including box squats and deadlifts)

speed box squat - 50lbs x 10 sets of 2.

speed sumo dead - 65lbs x 4 sets of 1.

reverse hyper - 10lb (each leg) x 3 sets of 8.

overhead squats (bdwt) 1 set of 10.

yeah the rest time inbetween the speed squats and bench were not what they were supposed to be. it took a lot of time to show her good form, but she is doing a lot better by the end of the workout. im proud of her, very proud.

Nice....

 

[Exodus]

thanks..... i know that was mostly for her. you would have been proud of her too, she had to put up with trying something new, something difficult for her, and the worst of all, ME...... i tried not to be to bossy, but it happened anyway. im a horrible coach.

Nice work.. did you keep good form on the speed with the heavier stuff??? I find I slow down a little too much... Show her proper form the weight will come like an afterthought

 

[Exodus]

yeah actually speed was good on both. it was a nice suprise. i was wondering what my max was the other day and i guessed about 275.......... so darn it i hate when im stronger than what i thought. i did lose ballance a little, it kinda rolled toward my neck and i had to jm press it back to where it was supposed to be and then press it, but it still felt easy. i didnt even bounce the bar off my chest, i lowered it to my shirt and reversed it.

form is hard even for me. i have no one to really show me except this websight, and she has me.

Yeah you must be bumbed that you are stronger than you think ... lol good to see though

Just make sure that it feels natural and looks antural. Most likely if it looks wrong then it is

 

[IronLion]

lol that reminds me of my girl...she wanted to learn to squat deep and couldn't care less about cardio...thats when I knew she was a keeper...

better marry her, both of you if you haven't so far.....

 

[b fold the truth]

The interesting thing about WSB is that when you finally find what works for you...the workouts seem so easy yet you continue to get stronger without doing the BIG 3 lifts.

B True

haha How long have you two been together

 

[Exodus]

dont worry suston...... i ask my wife to marry me after only dating for 7 weeks. we didnt get married untill we had been together for 2 years though. that was back in september so we have been married for almost 9 months. yeah she is the only chick in the gym that will grunt when repping out a hard set. yeah shes my little 5'4 amazon. lol.

B, i think she will really like wsb once she gets into it, but she is really confused right now.

haha, i gotta meet me a girl thats into lifting and being in shape. then she'll undetstand i have this little pot belly cuz of my bulking phase

 

[IronLion]

For me, I needed a girl that was into weightlifting for the intrinsic value, not just some fitness chick who tanned too much and did the stairmaster for an hour a day, but was afraid of the free weight. I was just lucky that the female version of me happened to be the best looking girl I had ever seen. We got engeged in febuary.

 

[spatts]

...and I think that ring is the coolest thing I've seen yet. I told my husband that I wanted something like that so I didn't have to take it off to deadlift.


Congrats!

 

[IronLion]

Thanks, she went first and when she was done I told her I was having second thoughts...haha she hit me...how romantic

for those who haven't seen it:

the Japanese Kanji for faithfull

 

[spatts]

That is just too cool...gave me chills. Do I get to meet her this weekend too?

Hey, girls that train hard are hard to come by...have to leech on when I can.

 

[IronLion]

she'll be with me...she is not that strong yet b/c she just started about 6 months ago, but she had better squat form than me within two weeks...that was depressing

 

[spatts]

Sweet.

Exodus, what weight class would T7 be in if she competed?

 

[Exodus]

im not to sure what the female weight classes are but she is between 125 and 130lbs. she is somewhere around 12-15 % bodyfat. but she is learning what it is to train for strength. check out my post on her ME Bench tonight..........WOW!!!!!!
