IT'S GOIN DOWN.... Time to drop it Pt. 2

[The_Rock_Says]

Sucks to hear you're down. Hopefully you didn't get rained on also yesterday on the bike, as it did drizzle at one point late in the afternoon when I went to the gym.

About 5, I was stopped in Cresson and headed down 53 (?) through Lilly and Portage towards 219. I got a couple of drops on me, but nothing major. Bike stayed clean! Well, until I forgot to cover it last night. Oh, well...

[The_Rock_Says]

That's about all it was, a few drops. Although it poured hard out here for a while last night around 2 or 3 when I got up to visit the loo.

dang, 100 miles? that's a good hump. and in 50 degree weather? that's hardcore. guess you gotta get the rides in while you can. my low back is tight just thinkin' about it.

[TiM]

I'm payin the price for that ride, Kim.... some hardcore lung/cold action going on since Friday. I'll be out of the gym for the next few days. It just isn't worth it. I tried yesterday and things still weren't great. I thought I'd feel better, but I only felt worse. Must have pulled something in my back that made it harder to breathe last night. This sucks!!!

Here's Monday's work:

DB Curls - 40x10, 50x10, 60x8, 70x3F
BB Shrugs - 315x10, 315x10, 315x10
EZBar Preachers - 115x8, 115x8
Face pulls - 180x10, 200x10, 220x10

[*big D*]

Get feeling better soon Bro!

Tylenol Severe Cold formula ROCKS!!! One bottle of it down (no, not all at once...) and I am feeling better. Lungs are still a tad tight at times, but I'm a lot better than I was 2 days ago. Taking the rest of the week out of the gym to recoup, and probably a good idea to not get everyone else sick. (If The_Rock_Says disappears for a week, you know what happened. HA!!!) I'm just relaxin and catching up on some sleep...for as much as a guy with a wife and 13mo old can catch!

Gettin back into the swing of things...finally!

Chest:
Flat DB Flyes - 20x15, 20x15, 20x15 (nice n deep, stretch & warm-up)
Flat DB Bench - 80x12, 90x12, 100x12
Inc. DB Flyes - 25x12, 35x12, 45x9F

Easin' back into things this week. Taking my time, but still felt pretty strong. I didn't go too crazy with big weight, but the bench felt pretty good.

[The_Rock_Says]

Good looking stuff there man. Gotta go in early tomorrow so we won't cross paths again til Monday - gonna try and combine 2 days together and do some full-body training...should be fun..lol

[Twisterdad]

Very nice son!!! Good to see you are still doing very well!!!

[TiM]

Yes, yes, I'm still here and I'm still going to the gym. I just haven't kept up with the log. So for nostalgia, here's an update!

Did squats today for the first time in a LONG time. My knee had been killing me so I left them out for about a 1 1/2 yr or maybe even 2 yrs. I dunno. Anywho, went back at it today and...

Squats: 2 warm-up sets, 3 working sets
2 wheels X 10 (135)
4 wheels x 8 (225)
6 wheels x 5 (315)
8 wheels x 3 (405)
8 wheels & 2 training wheels x 1 (455)

My previous max: 555x1

Not half bad for not doing them in...forever!! Felt damn good to do 'em. I definitely had the "big man walk" goin' on. Right now... Sore City! Tonight's pre-bed cocktail is going to consist of 1 scoop AXcell, 1 tsp. Taurine, and 1 Anaprox (RX-strength Advil). Umma gunna fill it in da mornin!!


Oh, and btw... Today's supplementation was basic and a tad experimental. That's code for "I used 2 things that y'all ain't got yet". HA!!!

[JHayward]

I was going to deadlift today, but I don't think that's going to happen. If you're in at regular time, I'll see ya. If not, you suck.
