I don't. BUT make sure he gives everything to you STRAIGHT. Make sure you understand everything he says. Pick his brain down to every last detail.

I am seeing an MD physio tomorrow. Does anyone wonder anything to hit the doc with while I am at it?

Why? Kap, I was thinkin about it, yesterday, and it's so quiet here... I think there are only 2 or 3 of us that are actually ever here, at all. Sad

SHOUT DAMNIT!

Alex your bf?

Getting ready for hurricane Alex

I knew something was mentioned the other year, I just recently figured it was the engagement announcement.

At least we know who pays attention, around here... right guys?

Lol....

Stag?

Congrats! Start a thread KPD to tell us about the ceremony, reception, stag and all that.

KPD got married

Welding?

I remember the fun those welding shouts were.

WTF is the matter with you?

Take pics? why, if I use my laptop while sitting on it it becomes a magic flying futon and I can shoot lightning at you in person.

Shit I dont know man, where did it go? Take pics of the new futon!!! You sleep on the thing or only sit on it?

Well folks, I have taken time off and think the mold thing was the problem, so tomorrow I start my next program and journal for it.

Hmm, what happened to that mold thread of mine?

They are all getting rowdy like Roesthlisberger in a bathroom stall

Friday March 5, 2010 Week 2

Bb shoulder press 105lbs X 7 x 7 X 7 X 4 fail

dips body (212lbs) X 7 X 5 X 4 X 2 fail

chinups body X 4 X 2 X 2

Great day today. I actually forgot half what I did for shoulders, but it is still good, I know. great deltoid burn.

It is better mitigating for my drinking piles of coffee last night to stay up late, I am adjusting for an evening event next week.

Sunday, March 7, 2010 Week 3, day 2

full squat 225X 5 X 5
235 X 5 x 5 X 5 lean, great

deadlift 265 X 7 x 7

standing calves: not done due to sore foot

ball crunches 10lbs X 15 20lbs X 15 X 15

I am calling today great. I stayed up quite late last night and was worried my sleep was screwed. I did it anyway.

As it is week 3, the rest period between sets doubles, therefore 3 minutes for legs and 2 minutes everything else in the program.

I was concerned about my hamstring, but found with good focus I could increase squat weight. I was leaning a bit on the 5th set but call it great and will either stay at 235lbs all next week with no lean on the 5th, or try it with 240lbs.

Deads I am also pleased with and my ham is now feeling better than during the warmup. How much of an increase for next day I will ponder. l

crunches are still a work in process, at least I am attempting more weight.

tuesday, March 9, 2010 Week 3

DB chest press 2X 77.5lbs X 7 x 7 X 7 X 5 fail great

DB lateral raises 2 X 15lbs X 15 X 12 X 9 fail

BB bent rows 85lbs X 7 X 7 X 7 X 8

supersetted
BB triceps extensions 75lbs X 10 X 11
DB hammer curls 2 X 27.5 X 10,10 X 12,12

Great day today. I do realize that with it being week 3 the rest between sets doubles to 2 minutes, but with chest I used slightly heavier weight and achieved 4 more reps than last time.

The supersetted arm work I am also pleased with the curls a huge improvement.

Saturday, March 13, 2010 Week 3

Bb shoulder press 115lbs X 7 x 7 X 7 X 8 great

dips Body (216lbs) 7 x 7 x 6 x 6 great

chinups body X 4 X 2 X 2

great day today. I have actually had the most useless I-don't-want-to-get-out-of-bed feeling the last couple of days. I held off yesterday but knew I had to do it today. Even though the rest between sets doubles this week I am surprised how well I did.

Chins, the same shit. I hope doing my lats today doesn't conflict with deads tomorrow.

Monday, March 15, 2010 Week 4

full squats 245lbs X 5 X 5 X 5 X4 X 3

deadlift not done

standing calves not done

ball crunches body + 20lbs X 15 X 15 X 15

I am pleased with today, if only for squats. I observed better form, even though I didn't rep the full 25. Actually all this past week i had a strain in my lower back at the tip of my left hip. I did this with too much forward lean last time and it caused me to skip deads. I will see if I can make up for that this week sometime, likely 3 sets as they won't be after squats.

Standing calves, well I am still a bit sore on my left foot ball, so they will wait too.

tuesday, March 16, 2010 Week 4

DB chest press 2 X 80lbs X 7 X 7 X 6 X 3 fail

DB lateral raises 2 X 15lbs X 15 X 14 X 11

BB bent rows 95lbs X 7 X 7 X 7 X 7 barely

supersetted
BB lying triceps 85lbs X 10 X 6
DB hammer curls 2 X 30lbs X 10,10 X 8,8 grip

Once again my energy level is blah, but I worked out as scheduled anyway. I have been in the habit of late of drinking too much coffee, and this shortens and lightens my sleep. I end up drinking more to cope, this isn't good.

With chest, I slightly raised the weight, but shouldn't have. Other stuff coming along though, reduced reps achieved is due to weight increases.

Wednesday, March 17, 2010 Addendum

Deadlift 285lbs X 7 x 6 x 2 straps

I cancelled deads on Monday because I had a week and a half ago pulled the muscle in my lower back that attaches to my left hip.

I feel tired today, I keep waking up to piss and not falling back to sleep.

As I did not preexhaust with squats I wanted three sets. My application of straps was a bit iffy so I gave up early on the third. Still it makes up, and the highest weight since my hamstring strain of two years ago.

It just occurred to me that I have been going non stop for about 8 weeks and maybe I need a week off.

I will switch the flat chest work to BB bench press, I got some variation I suppose with dumbbells over the last while.

I will keep the program the same, so maybe just keep this same journal going.

Anyway, my legs are coming along.

Edit: Also, I must remark that I am outright fat. Several months ago I was about 192lbs, now my home scale calls me 217lbs. the increase is bitch titties and love handles. My explanation is that because of my sore left foot ball (I had for the longest time a corn on top of a callous that i had a nurse practitioner cut off) I have been involved little with walking around town, my usual cardio/fat burning work.

As to energy level, I had tried to adjust last week to a live show at a club starting at 10:00 pm. this is a task for me and I started ingesting more coffee than I should and I still only have slightly returned to normal. this has helped ruin my sleep on a regular basis and I make it worse by taking naps in early evening, just to avoid completely sleeping at 6:30 pm. So I am commonly waking up tired.

Anyway, it is still a good time to take a training break and I will start hiking around town to do errands tomorrow, reduce caffeine and generally look like I am in shape.

2nd edit: Aw, fuck, I am overtrained. I kept thinking over the last week it is other stuff, but I did an impromptu, no warmup bench test and only did 3 at 215lbs.

The question is, will I recover training benefit derived since the last time I took a training break before I train again?
