What did you lift today?

Friday Workout:
(title is a lie, doing this tonight)

Squats 1x5 225 1x5 315 3x5 350
Bent Barbell Row 1x6 95 3x6 145
Weighted Dips 3x6 45 plate + bodyweight
Incline Bench 3x6 195

I've switched from the 5x5 and am instead doing something like max-ot which focuses on heavy sets with longer breaks in between.

2000m swim

ez day D:

gonna lift a book to my face in chair by the pool. my schedule got mixed around because I hurt my wrist a couple weeks back, starting m-w-f lifting again next week :|

nice incline bench number though rayn -- i couldn't get mine to go up any higher so now Ive switched to inc. dumbbells and doing them on a yoga ball....argh plateaus


edit: I guess I could say im doing a interval sprinting session with a buddy in a little bit, but thats not lifting either ;\

2 hours of street hoops

nice incline bench number though rayn -- i couldn't get mine to go up any higher so now Ive switched to inc. dumbbells and doing them on a yoga ball....argh plateausMy upper body strength is lagging behind my lower body.

I had to return 3 pairs of jeans this week cause apparently 'easy through the thigh' is not meant to accommodate my legs. I'm actually a bit annoyed cause now I have to get loose jeans and I hate when they sag in the back.

ah, im pretty even all around, but I just cant get my incline bench up any higher, im at 170-180 or so ( I weigh 155) and i havent been able to do more than that for a couple of months now, I dont know if I need to try to change my form or the degree of incline or what. but it just aint happening.

I can flat bench much higher, i dont dont know why my incline is so low...or is there a common amount of weight that people can bench less on inclines? maybe im normal.

legs:
bb lunges
straight leg deadlifts
squats
donkey calf raises
leg extensions

leg day


haven't decided if I want to go heavy or do what i have been doing the last 2 weeks(cut style)

If I go heavy, I'll do a 5x5 squats, 3x20 calf 2x5 heavy calf, 5x5 heavy dumbell lunge then some forearm and machine leg work

if I go light, I'll do 3 cycles of squats, lunges, goblet squats, box jumps, and agility work with 30 seconds between stations. Then I'll throw up.

dude sounds like you need a cut. When you start having problems with pants....no need for that!

I am cutting I'm around 14% BF right now, not really all that fat. The problem isn't the fat, it's that my waist is size 34 and 'regular' jeans these days have TINY upper thigh areas that are not meant for large quads.

I can flat bench much higher, i dont dont know why my incline is so low...or is there a common amount of weight that people can bench less on inclines? maybe im normal.It's normal to bench less on the incline, it's primarily using much smaller muscles than the sternal pectoral. (Shoulders, clavical pectoral)

I normal stay quit close...65's for flat chest press and 60's for incline.

yesterday i did
flat DB press: 4x8,8,7,7 @ 85 (just switched to DB so I didn't know what weight to use really.. was @ 3x8 @ 215 on barbell i think)
Incline Bench 3x8 @ 155
Cable flys 3x8 @ ... i forgot. was my first time doing them
DB should press 3x8 @ i forgot
then I did front and lateral raises 3x10 @ 10lbs

i need to find a place to start posting my workouts so i can keep up better. i've been using google doc's but it's annoying.

Earlier today I did 3 rounds for time of:
400m row
30 box jumps 24' box
30 wall balls 20# ball(medicine ball squat thrusts tossing the ball 10' in the air)

Just got back from doing this for time:
25 Walking lunge steps
20 Pull-ups
50 Box jumps, 20 inch box
20 Double-unders
25 Ring dips
20 Knees to elbows
30 Kettlebell swings, 2 pood
30 Sit-ups

My time was 21:18 for the 2nd and I can't remember my time for the 1st workout.

I'm beat for the day.

back and biceps, doing insanely slow negatives this shit is killing me.

how is the slow negative working for you? I hear that is good for hypertrophy.

I've only been doing it for about two weeks now and I've had to drop the weight some because it is much much harder but either I am crazy or I am seeing some more definition.

Today was day 3 of my DoggCrapp workout. My first week so im still getting the weights right. When you do the last 3 sets you take a 12 to 15 deep breath pause between sets, thats it. pretty tiring.
