The fattening up for winter training log

[al420]

what a pathetic workout you weak weak man.......... if you can't squat 605 w/ no belt, wraps, or spotter in a commercial gym w/ a gay old man looking at the hair on your ass and the chubby college ladies hoping you'll buttfuck the 2 of them means your not a real lifter - hang it up.

 

[Tweakle]

I could have had them both, no doubt.. stinking of ass sweat and wearing my finest torn homeless-pants and sweat stained, food covered, hole filled squat shirt to boot

usually it's trannies or gay guys who hit on me in the gym, so anything that isnt packing a pee pee is a step up I guess

couple workouts to post

smith incline, 385 x 4, 405 x 2, 335 x 10 (replacing the flat with this for a while)
hammer iso row, finally found a gym with one of these! 5 x 5 final set 6.5 plates/side

db seated shoulder press, about 80 degrees, 100 x 5, 125's x 5 (spotter kept touching my arms so not a kosher lift sadly), 65's x lots as a backoff

pullups couple of sets with bw

---

yesterday

very light fronts, just to get back into them

deads - my FUCKING ASS! grrrr... it's been bad lately, even 500 from the floor was a struggle so I did something probably quite pointless


sumo rack pulls, 495 x 30, 675 x 21.. could have kept going all day but the bar was giving me road rash on the inside of my thighs. I'll lower it a notch next time

nothing else as I was pissed at my sore ass, but next time - same WO with abs, calfs and pullthrus

500 x 7, 14" box ... my ass cramped up on the 7th rep so I had to rack (see that leg shaking going on? now imagine someone stabbing you in the butt with a rusty screwdriver for a couple of mins after a set and that's what it felt like )

right now I figure I'll stay at 500 until I get 10 reps. Going heavier is bothering my ass a bit, I'll do the heavy triples on fronts on friday, maybe.

10" box, raw .. jumped right to 455, bad idea. I got a rep but didnt feel stable enough on the bottom to do anything else. And my ass hurt

leg press, one leg

2 plates/ side x 5, 4 pps x 5, 5 pps x 5, 6 pps x 5, 7 pps x 6 right, 4+1 left (glute pain)

ham curls

decline situps 110lb db x 5, brad pitt style

calfs 600 3 x 5

adductor and abductor machine followed by the back machine for rehab work

I'm about .8 tweakles in weight, just over a tweakle in height and I bench half a tweakle. I wanna increase that to 3/5 of a tweakle next year!

Your video shows some role in your hips at the bottom. I just touch and go. Should I start sitting down all the way? They look strong and smooth.

shit i jsut love ur vids man.. so fucking amazing!! always inspiring!! what actually is the prob with your back? and what did the chiro say was your it? what are u doing for rehab now?

as i'm also experiencing some discomfort in my back.. it's low down in my spine.. definitely not muscle.. as i don't feel a thing while doing hypers.. was able to squat yesterday till 120kg(assisted tho).. but tried to full squat this morning in the toilet and felt that i couldn't go all the way down without feeling some discomfort there..

sorry if u have to explain this all over again.. but thx in advance..

dunno mr quads, I suspect my box squat is bad and not done properly at all, but it's all I can do right now :s

injury is chronic piriformis syndrome, which has thrown my SI out of aligment and basically everything down in my hip/sacrum area is fucked. Sometimes it's good, like when I pulled 635 for 3 a couple months back, sometimes it's bad, like last week when I couldnt pull 500 off the floor


Incline smith, 315 x 5, 385 x 5 (pr), 365 x 6, 315 x 5 (very slow reps, backdown, not to failure)

Hammer iso row, one arm at a time

5 plates/side x 5, 6 pps x 5, 7 pps x 6 (some heave on the last set), 4 pps x 5 slow squeeze reps with a hold at the top

DB shoulders , seated, 80 degrees

100's x 12 - a little too explosive on these I think I tweaked my right shoulder a little

125's x 4 - not great

one arm, not alternated, 60's x 15.

curls 4 girls , straight bar 90 2 x 8, hammer 45's x 5 (tendonitis cramped me up here)

The highlight of the workout was seeing one of the Gotti boys training.. sweatband, gino spikes, polo shirt with the collar popped and girls jeans, grunting through a set of 10lb laterals next to me. I tried to hit him with a 125lber on the way down but he was a little too agile for me.

I'm debating whether a Smith PR deserves effusive congratulations. Did polo shirt boy refuse to give you a spot on regular inclines?

Sweet vid as usual from the previous workout, especially given the ass issues. Did that contraption you ordered a while back ever arrive?

I would say they are far from "bad". They look strong and controlled. I thought I might be doing them wrong. I just touch and go, and your really sittin' into it.
