A Lifter's Iron Log...

ahh ok gotcha, i think i need to stretch more but i agree ppl stretch too much too, i think u can be too flexible as well, there should be moderation.

Workout today sucked. I somehow strained my left bicep on 1 of my 2 previous workouts this week. I was scheduled to do 7 singles with 255 on bench and I got up 2 and had to stop because my biceps was not up to snuff. Sucks even more because other than the bicep the weight felt fairly light. On the second rep the bicep literally gave out about 2-3 in ches from the chest as I was lowering the weight. I let the weight sit there on my chest for almost 2 seconds and then powered it up np. LAME!!!

I then tried some incline pressing and worked up to an easy single with 185 and had to stop. I was going to try 205 and thought better of it. At this point my bicep was pretty sore so I switched to the pec deck machine and did 65, 75, 85, 95, 110 for a set of 6 each.

Did several sets of dumbell curls with a 30 in the right and a 10 in the left. Go was just to stress the bicep as best I could with light weight and get blood flow and pump going.

Also did 2 sets of wrist curls and got a pretty schweet pump from those. Nothing seems to kill like a really intense set of wrist curls for me. Obviously a balls out set of squats it really taxing and wrist curls don't really fatigue me, but they BURN like a motherfucker!

Anyhow, shitty fucking workout. Tomorrow I'll see how squats go. PRobably skip back and "maybe" try some sumo deads.:mad:

Oh well.

Barbell Squat 135x4, 185x1, 225x1, 255x1, 275x1, 295x1 warmup
320x6x1 singles weight was pretty easy. 6th rep took abit of effort, but most all of the reps were not particularly hard. Form is improving.

Sumo Deads 225x1, 275x1, 315x1 warmup
365x6x1 singles. Weight was pretty much a joke.

Stair Calf Raises 3 sets with 50 pounds

Bodyweight 233lbs

Felt really strong other than my sore left bicep. I've come to the conclusion that I managed to strain my left bicep abit from a combination of heavy curls on monday followed by adjusting my hand grip on squats on tuesday. Probably only do very light bench on monday and press if my bicep will let me. If not oh well.
 
crazy how u can deadlift fine but benching is troubling your bicep...lol

this program looks like it is solid for strength because itsonly 1 rep. I wanna try it after the 5x5 in spring

Dumbell Bench 50's x5, 65's x5, 75's x5, 90's x3 warmup
100's x8, the last rep was really effin hard.

Barbell Press 45x5, 95x3, 125x1, 135x1, 145x1 warmup
170x6x1 singles I actually felt stronger overall on these singles than with 165.

Barbell Strict Curl 60x15
Alt. DB Curls 30's x7-8, 25's x6, 20's x5-6 rest was about 1 minute between sets, 1.5 tops.

Lying French Press 80x12, last 2 reps were a tad sloppy, but overall a very strict set.

That's it. It was a solid workout. I felt pretty strong.

Pretty sure I could press 185 once right now bro.

Next week I'll do 6 singles with 175.

There's a good 10-15lbs between what I'm doing singles with and what my max is on the press.

Barbell Squat 165x2, 275x1, 296x1, 320x1, 341x2,2,3 all raw

Cybex Squat Press 5 plates per side x8, 6x8, 7x8, 8x8,8

That's it. The final triple squat set was really hard, but I was very happy with it. The 2 sets of 8 plates per side squat press were solid ass sets. The last rep on both sets was a solid grinder.

Bodyweight 235lbs. Felt strong. Doing my best not to be depressed with this fuckin terrible economy. I have 35 dollars to my name...
