friday 7/8/05
crappy workout today, just felt like a crap workout, but who knows. i got ambitious and tried too big of a jump on deadlifts and i didn't like the way they felt at all. decided to do db curls instead of barbell curls today and i think i may have tried too heavy of a weight for those too....oh well, there's always next time
sumo deadlifts 275lbs x 5, 5
i got 5 on each set but i felt like i was using a lot of legs and not so much back. my back isn;t sore at all right now, last week, i felt it in my back much more. i just want to make sure i hit the muscles i am supposed to hit with these. i will see how i feel next friday whether i keep this weight or drop it a bit
db curls 65lb dbs x 5, 5
got them up, but didn't really feel it in my biceps...didn;t get the pump i usually get. i wonder if my back day is overworking my bis in addition to these?
incline db curls 55lb dbs x 5, 5
went up reps on these...these felt easy, almost TOO easy, and once again, the weights went up but not so much pain in the bis....and yes I USE GOOD FORM on everything!
10 minute interval training on the recumbant bike (cause i have no other time to do cardio, so i had to throw it at the end_
short but not so sweet workout |

Yeah you didn't feel it in your biceps cause you were using your back to get them up weren't you? DON'T LIE TO ME! 65's equal to about 135 for 5 on a straight bar.
Nice work there mo cheese!

dude, since you're so high on the filming thing, I'll FILM MYSELF NEXT TIME!! hahaha 
i will say in all fairness that I did use wrist straps on the dumbbells, but yes I got the 65's up without breaking form. I find it a lot easier believe it or not, to curl dumbbells than a straight bar, I guess it's just me though  |

I'd be more interested seeing you're bench form and your squat form than bicep curl form. Hook it up homie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

maybe...I'll see what I can do....i know you're gonna trash my bench form already, since I know for a fact I bench like a "bodybuilder" and not a powerlifter, ie, upper arms parallel to the floor and elbows making a 90 degree angle on the decent...I can't do it the "powerlifter" way cause my elbows are too messed up.... |

I'm not gonna "trash" anything you do, cept maybe your squat form .
Careful with benching with those elbows straight out, that can cause serious shoulder problems FYI, so then you'll have shoulder and elbow problems then you F'd lol.

well, actually, since I have learned the art of tucking my shoulder blades together underneath my back as far as I can, I have had 0 shoulder issues, whereas before this, i couldn't do incline presses because of a bad right shoulder, but since I am really squeezing those blades together, I feel a lot stronger in the movement and a lot more secure...
and yes, knowing you, you will trash my squat form |

Man you'd be surprised how many people think they are doing squats right and aren't. I used to be one of em. Now, because of where i train, i'm not allowed to cheat on form lol.
And, ill likely be competing in december this year so if i want it to count, I'll have to have good form.
Oh i see, tucking those blades and staying tight, you my friend are going to become a powerlifter soon enough. HEHEHEHEHEHEHEH MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA
