carrot topless Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Maybe a grandiose name for what I will be documenting here, I am essentially still trying to work out (ha ha) what I enjoy doing and sticking to it. Warm up: pushups- 20x4 DB shoulder press 20kg x 10x 230kgx 8x 335kg x 1040kgx 8x 240kgx 725kgx 20 Lateral raise/ front raise SS10x10 each rear delt raise15kg 10x10 shrugs:90kgx 10x5 pushups: 20crunch-20wide pushup- 20crunch-20knuckle push-20crunch-20diamond pushup-20crunch 20 I really enjoyed this session, shoulders are my favourite body part to work on. I especially love the pump I get on my traps(?) it feels like good, healthy, hard-work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrot topless Posted October 26, 2012 Author Share Posted October 26, 2012 Thanks man, it means a lot that someone else is taking an interest in what I do. Does it make sense to write the weight of individual DBs or does it work better to do total weight? I wasn't sure which way to go with that.

vegan_rossco Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Well I write it as weight per dumbbell but it wont matter too much as long as you specify If you don't mind me asking, where abouts are you from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrot topless Posted October 27, 2012 Author Share Posted October 27, 2012 OK, I write my weights as per dumbbell just to be clear. I am in South-West England, so I guess not that far from you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrot topless Posted October 28, 2012 Author Share Posted October 28, 2012 Fancied some cardio this morning Rowing machine:slow start to get the heart going for maybe 5 minutes, followed by 10 minutes of super intense trying to break the machine on the toughest setting. Then about an hour and a half at a good regular pace. Might do chest later after I obliterate my food supplies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrot topless Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 I LOVE training back! But something is holding me back right now, maybe it got wasted during my leg workout. warmup- pullups 12x2 deadlift- 80- 160-180-190-200 200x1x 10 weighted chins- +40kg fail+30 x1x2 Oh hamburgers! DB row 40kg 15x4DB row 40kg x10 30kgx10 20kgx8 (superset?) Is it a superset if it is the same exercise but a lighter weight? I just keep a line of DBs and grab a lighter one when I can't do another. concentration curl- 10kg-20x4 save it for another day.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carrot topless Posted October 30, 2012 Author Share Posted October 30, 2012 My shoulder just wasn't moving right, I had clicking and grinding and pain when I tried to bench. I did not warm up my rear delts before playing, my rotators probably need some strengthening too so that's probably why. It just wasn't working. I did some light bench work in the hope I could consider it a warm-up and kill some flys, but my bicep started giving me trouble with those. Lots of little things!

carrot topless Posted November 8, 2012 Author Share Posted November 8, 2012 I'm getting bored with this today, lifting felt good, but it is really taking my energy away from much more important shit.Warmup- cleans60x580x590x5 Deadlift180x5x2190x5205x1205x2215x1x5I'm still pretty sure there is more in me if my grip gets just a bit better. Milipress:60x10x280x8x390x5x2 Went for a short, chilled-the-fuck-out walk after and ate while looking over some beautiful hills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrot topless Posted November 10, 2012 Author Share Posted November 10, 2012 Walked a while. There's a place on a hill overlooking the most beautiful valley with chocolate box villages dotted in the trees and fields. I like to sit there and just reflect. Sometimes I will sit there for a couple of hours and something will just dawn on me and unlock a whole trail of thought, that existed in my mind but was never explored. I might realize a whole trail of rabbit-holes in my mind that give me a whole new perspective in life. Like when you have that great idea before you fall asleep and wake up and forget it, except completely lucid and I remember it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carrot topless Posted November 22, 2012 Author Share Posted November 22, 2012 Two weeks off and I still look and feel awesome. I ran into some folks from the gym and their attitude about me not turning up without good reasons was not positive, I can see why really. I just don't share that enthusiasm, I think it is awesome that so many of you on here are so dedicated to what you do (Synny!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds a pretty cool experience and I bet you get a lot out of that. Walking/easy running is great for clearing the mind and getting the endorphins going again. Keep up with the training as well, you're going good. Enjoy your weekend MF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
