Post your workout for today.

75th

ololollllolloolloloolllol
EF VIP
Let's see if we can make this thread on ongoing thing. Simply post what you're planning on doing or have done at the gym today. Might be a good opportunity for some of the newer folks to see some variations of routines they may use now, and for some more experienced folks to critique some of what they see.

Being the resident Crossfit (or Cultfit as SouthernMo calls it) enthusiast, my routines may look a tad different but I'll post em up anyway.

Just got done with:

5 rounds of

- Run 400m
- As Many Reps As Possible (AMRAP) bodyweight (185 lbs) bench
- AMRAP Pullups
- 25 situps
 
this is a good idea 75th glad to see you making some helpful posts instead of just trolling C&C all day :biggrin:

Im about to set off to go to the gym but Ill post up my workout when I get back...
 
I still have the swine :(

Likely taking the rest of the week off. My routine sucks.

I'll add to this :)

Last night was Deadlift Training.

I was supposed to do 7-10 Singles with equal to or more than 90% of my Deadlift max.

I managed to do 10 singles:
455 lbs @ 96%
475 lbs @ 100%
475 lbs @ 100%
455 lbs @ 96%
455 lbs @ 96%
455 lbs @ 96%
455 lbs @ 96%
430 lbs @ 90%
430 lbs @ 90%
430 lbs @ 90%

I proceeded then to do some hand extensions and called it a day.

It was a fucking difficult workout.

The video (of all the singles) is in my training log: http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/w...ing/big-boy-basics-682461-31.html#post9366701

Also, since I am a huge promoter of Ground Up Strength because of the quality of it's articles and the fact that its totally free, I'd like to point out this unique opportunity to have access to some new information regarding progression, strength training and nutrition.

Nice workout but what is shop? I'm assuming it is something something overhead press? Whatever it is those are strong!

Moya: Damn nice work on the squat pr!
 
McDonalds for lunch and Ice Cream for dinner. No beer though got to get up early.

I have trained four times in the last 8 weeks. I'm so fucking jacked right now.




Seriously I can't wait to get back in the gym and build some strength back up. I'll prolly roll with some light 5x5 action starting Monday. I'm so weak the higher frequency core lifts should do me some real good.
 
You guys should all make logs lol! Nice front squat pr moya!

it hurt like hell on my bicep, and it was a fight getting it up....
but it was deep as ass on calves...

i kept a log here for a while but i got tired of typing it out... but now ive cut my training down to 2-3 days/wk so i may start back up...

That would be awesome logs are always fun to read:) Did you use cross grip or clean grip? Both hurt like hell when I do a pr lol!
 
Press Training

YouTube - M20 W3 Press Training.wmv

Did quite a bit yesterday. Did Banded Overhead Presses with 155 lbs x 2 reps x 4 sets and then 165x1. Proceeded to do Dumbbell Rows with 120 lbs for 7 reps, 9 reps and 11 reps. Went on to do some Standing Unilateral Overhead Presses with 70 lbs for 3 sets and 5 reps. Then I did some Cable Rows with 180 lbs for 3 sets and 12 reps. Did some Swiss Ball Jackknife Pikes for core training. Concluded with a 3 supersets of Side Lateral Raises and Inverted Rows. Got a major pump out of them.

Great Press Training workout yesterday. Looking forward to next week. I want to hit 175 for a banded OHP.
 
Its a letter you can use in there when you can push that kind of weight.

:lmao::lmao:

Does the axle make the shop harder? Also you say you used knee drive and split presses when needed, how far did you get before you needed that? Incredible overhead strength though!

The axle makes it a bit harder in that it doesn't flex or whip at all. It also doesn't have sleeves that spin.

I would say that I needed consistant knee drive or spit pressing beginning somewhere in the middle of the 315lb set.

I'm working out tomorrow. Squat, bench, and row for light 5s. Fifth workout in two months :(
 
my workout today was wresteling with 3 giant st bernards that are wild as all hell, sizing them for homade harnesses then putting the harnesses on them and bathing them. what a treat that was. son of a bitches where slobbering and mudding me all up. the highlite though was when our male 270+lbs smacked my wife right in the face with his big muddy paw knocking her to the ground then stood over her not letting her up while he licked her to death with his mouth like a camoto dragon. she was yelling for me to help but i couldnt stop laughing at her to be able to help.

This thread has the potential to be an epic landmark in EF history
 
Bump for awesome thread

how is everyone training right now?

Reading through this thread and the other logs on here something that seems apparent is the workouts posted by beginners (myself included) are littered with a lot of different exercises and rep ranges. The more experienced lifters workouts seem much more organised and too the point without any needless "fluff" exercises......
 
Leg Day

Leg press 10reps X 5 sets
Laying Hamstring curl 8reps X 4 sets
Leg extensions 8reps X 3 sets
Single Hamstring curls 10reps X 3 sets
BB Lunges 10reps X 4 sets
 
Not feeling too good today so I hit the good old full body;

Squats
Bench press
Bent over row
Chin ups
Dips
Military press
Crunches
 
Well yesterday was my workout .... 5x5
Flat bench 245
Bent over row 245
Rack Pulls 365
Triceps 3x8@45 (isolation single arm)
 
Crossfit-filthy fifty in the am and 55min on the stairmill after work.


Has anybody tried the "insanity" workouts? or P90X?
 
B workout from stronglift 5x5. Squats, overhead press, deadlifts. Threw in three sets of chins at the end. 30 min hiit and took it to the house.

Posted with my Droid EO Forum App
 
I have done both. Insanity was one if the hardest things physically I have ever done. P90 x was weak. The best thing about p90x is ab ripper x and that it helped me rehab from surgery so I could get back to the steel.

Foam rolling and stretching for me.

I'm getting back in the gym after a layoff. The linear 5x5 has always been my go to routine when getting back in the swing of things.

With that said, yesterday was my second day back and my legs are rocked. Not as sore as i was on Tuesday though. That's the amazing thing about high frequency training. Eventually I will no longer get any real doms on the 5x5.

Front squats - 140lbs 5x5
Standing o'head press - 120lbs 5x5
Deadlift - 270lbs 2x5
Weighted crunches and some tricep/bicep supersets thrown in at the end

Thanx! I just ordered the Insanity, can't wait to try it.

Would you or anyone else happen to know if you can download it to your blackberry? I'd like to train at one of the studios @ my gym, didn't wanna take my laptop there.

Would you or anyone else happen to know if you can download it to your blackberry? I'd like to train at one of the studios @ my gym, didn't wanna take my laptop there.

I think you will have to take the laptop to play your dvd's. I don't know of a way to load them on your BB. Good luck and enjoy. Sean T is kind of addicting after you get into it. Month 1 is nothing compared to month 2 workouts. If you like cardio and plyo you are in for a treat!

Thanx for your help. Ya, I'm looking to try something new and challenge myself a bit. I'll keep you posted :)
