The Beast's Training Journal!

[WalkingBeast]

great info......I'm in this game more for aestically pleasing purposes(bodybuilding) than fretting about my lifts(pwer lifter)...........so, I'll most likely stick with the 10,8,8,6,6 rep range for full deads or toss in a few 5x5 of deads and see how it goes..........they just kick my ass ..........

ThanX brother!! Makes sense. Id say if your in it for the appearence and size, Id go with more reps on the deads. I usually end up doing alot of one rep work with the deads, and my size hasnt increased measurably in my upper body in possibly a few years. Only the arms have grown slightly. Either Im not eating enough or my training needs some changes, or maybe Im reaching that so called "natural plateau" if such a thing exists.Doesnt seem im at my natural limit with such small triceps however. Im definately going to start adding some reps with my deadlifts now. I did it last week and got really sore. Much more so then I am now, even though I used much more weight doing the beast lifts. I love the rush of lifting heavy weights, its like a drug for me! haha Keep it up brother!!

ThanX for the encouragement brother!! You pump me the FUCK up!!!!!! Im just thankful Im able to start training heavy again and get back into it! I still have some slight discomfort in my spine, but the muscles around the spine dont hurt too much. Just got my upper spine Xrayed and will be getting it worked on by a chiro soon. ThanX again brother!!
