7-27-04 Tuesday Quads

Zero fucking drive today. The urge to mutilate myself was much stronger then the urge to train. Just didnt give a fuck. I usually grind it out no matter what, but sometimes I say FUCK IT. I did 3 sets of leg extentions and then hit the chinese buffet a few feet down. The routine:

Leg Extentions:

70x20
150x15
190x15

and then possibly 210x15

i know how that goes beast...just gotta keep pressin' on...i think you would really like the pain and blackout sensations from squats once you get the form down...

Sounds like we had a similar Tuesday bro. I just couldn't get into it. I pushed myself to finish up, but I wonder whether my workout was even that productive. We just gotta really KILL THAT SHIT today!!! Peace.

ThanX brother!! Yea I know Id like that part of it. The clicking in my lower back is keeping me from doing them at the moment. Ill just stick to deadlifts and some heavy leg presses,extentions and curls for now it seems. ThanX again brother!!

7-29-04 Thursday Chest and Abs (KILLED THAT SHIT!!)

The M1T is definately kicking in even though I stopped it yesterday due to the side effects. I may go back on a very small dosage, and not every day. Had my best chest workout ever today. Hit 3 PR's. I started out with 2 warm-up sets then I did 275 just short of 16 reps for a PR on that lift, then onto 315 for 7.5 reps, not 8, but still good. Then I hit 325 for 5.5 reps, a 1/2 rep PR. Then I managed to hit a very easy 375. Incredibly easy. 400 is only 25lbs away now. Im much closer then I expected. I attempted 385 got it about 1/2 way. Then I attempted 380 3 times and came very close on those attempts. Keep in mind today was not a MAX workout. So my focus was the reps, and I tried the maxes after all the rep work and still hit a 5lb PR on the one rep max. Then I finished up with 315x4 and 195x27 and some hammer strength work, push ups and ab work. I weighed in at 196lbs on the gym scale before meals. Im getting closer then I thought, hopefully Ill keep some of the strength after I go off the M1T. My training partner also increased his one rep max by 15lbs and hit 3 consequtive PR's hitting 425lbs for a single, at 185 and raw, aside from a belt. I plan to hit this free-for-all style of training again and max out all my PR's before attempting 5X5 again. I may just stick with this for a while until I plateau majorly. Ill switch my focus to one rep maxes after I get my reps up some more. I may hit 405 even though Im still focusing on reps. 375 went up fast. Missed a few days of the No-Xplode, but drank alot of gatorade the night before to stay hydrated. Heres the routine:

(196lbs before meals)

Flat Bench:

135x20
225x12
275x15.75 (One rep PR. Just missed lockout)
315x7.5 (Couldve gotten 8 if I took a longer pause, I believe)
325x5.5 (1/2 rep PR)
375x1 (5lb PR)
385 (fail)
380 (1/2 way)
380 (Went up on the second rep, training partner says he didnt get chance to touch it really, but still not legit)
380 (Came very close on the second rep)
315x4
195x27 (bodyweight for reps)

Hammer Strength Wide Chest Machine (Plate Loaded):

180x15
270x15
360x7

Push-Ups To Failure:

40

AB Crunch Machine (pin loaded):

110x15
110x15
110x15
