Log of Peace - My Aesthetic Journey to The Peak of Mt. Olympus

[Delvis]

He actually just said 'incline DB 27.5kg', not 'Incline DB 27.5's'.

Now presumably by the sarcastic remarks I'm guessing it was the 27.5's, so well done. I couldn't get the 25's in to place properly on flat DB bench last week.

 

[icecold]

Solid session and hnnnnnnnng

 

[Skillmister]

Sometimes i don't even music, just noise.

Fuarkkkkkk

Stomach playing up a bit today, really didn't feel like it would go well doing legs so i decided to do shoulders instead.

DB press 27.5kg 8 8 8 - The sessions of 30s last week helped me hit this? Maybe. (incase delvis is wondering, i used 20kg dumbells per arm with 7.5kg of sugar in a bag taped to my calves which i placed above my head and raised at the same time)
Arnold press 20kg 8 8 8 - Holy deep burn
DB front raise 10kg 8 8 7
Cable side raise 14kg 8 8 7 - used a different cable machine, no way it's the same 14kg as on the other one, felt twice as heavy

BW dips 8 6 6 - Left shoulder felt ****ed
Rope pulldown 36kg 8 8 7 - Again, way way heavier than the other cable i swear
Bar pushdown 50kg 8 7 5 - "

Mirin' that DB shoulder press brah.

 

[Skillmister]

Thanks brah. Gonna take me a while to get up to 3x8 with the 30s, they heavy as ****

You placed your calve above your head?


Looks like a nice sesh .

 

[Delvis]

I love how people cant just answer questions here sometimes. Awesome shoulder pressing

Just got back from Skyfall, strong 8.5/10 film.

Legs this morning. Decided to brave some decent squats. Overall back felt good, lost so much leg strength though

Squats 60kg 8 8 80kg 8 8 6 100kg 2 - didn't quite hit depth on these, i was truly fried.
Leg press 80kg 10 9 7
DB walking lunges 15kg 10 10 10
Leg extension 40kg 8 8 8
Calve raises supersetted with/without weight until pain was too great

Already got doms, walking tomorrow may be an issue.

 

[LiE]

Nice. Did seeing Daniel Craig topless boost your test?

 

[Skillmister]

I was nursing a semi for about 50% of the film.

Aesthetic song for back day

BW pullups 8 8 7
BW chins 8 5 7 - wat?

Deads look good. Music is bad.

 

[Skillmister]

[Steedie]

Deads look good. Music is bad.

Phaggot.
























(keep bar against shins and make sure you're loading your hamstrings fully at the bottom (think of of as adding slight APT). Hips maybe a tiny bit higher)

 

[Skillmister]

Phaggot.

(thanks brah)

 

[Steedie]

LOL @ gif

I have no idea what happened today but everything felt so much easier than last week.

BB Bench 60kg 8 75kg 8 8 7
Incline DB 27.5kg 8 8 8 - So easy
Decline BB 60kg 8 7 6
Cable Fly 30kg 10 10 9

BB curls 30kg 8 8 8 20kg 21s x2
DB Curls 12.5kg 8 8 8

Forgot to weigh myself this morning pre breakfast so i'll do it tomorrow. Don't expect to have gone up as much as last time because my diet towards the end of last week was a bit sloppy.

And i'm ****ed off because i took a vid to grab pics from because i looked joocy and it came out like this

looking thick solid tight etc

 

[Zefan]

Aesthetics coming along well brah, awesome symmetry.

 

[LiE]

Clearly not natty.
