*** The 2013 Gym Rats Thread ***

People be on their periods on Facebook, good game ;D
:D

Been one of those days, I blame Steddy for getting the ball rolling :p.

Side note, one of the photo's of UE in his album really looks like he's getting a blow off, well I'm not 100% sure, it's either a Jedi or the ITV monkey...... Intentional??

Christ what a difference sleep makes. I've had about 5 hours a night this week on shift, and sucked in the gym every time I went. Slept nearly 12 after I got home last night, didn't have to rush or do much at all today on my first day off, went to the gym and felt all fuuuuuaaaaarrrrrk, did everything I wanted to do pretty well and left buzzing.

Note to self, get more sleep.
 
:p

Wozza if the weights aren't going up, the usual answer is you need more food.

Or to translate for UE, tren in yo face bro

Yea I thought that could be a factor, I was gonna ask about it as these days I am hungry pretty much every few hours. I don't think I am getting enough protein in with working full time and studying outside of working hours
 
lol :D

It may be some sort of camera trickery with perspective, but I'm pretty sure your hooded fellatist is either a midget or of morally dubious age. I guess that's why you use a hood.
 
The picture taken moments before tell an entirely different story...

Far too much time goofing around with isolation or ancillary exercises for my liking that will detract from your power/endurance for the big compounds and stop you from putting in the effort where you should.

There is also a distinct lack of core work, too. :confused:
 
This was copied from my iPod, I do do abs but i don't bother putting it on my Notes as i do it whatever days i feel like 2 days a week.
 
That's some massive sessions there...

You've got three presses for shoulders, which effectively all work the same shoulder muscle groups. I'd look at something like UE's Rear Delt fly thing.

Far too much going on, far too many exercises and reps.

If you are reaching the end of those days and still hitting your planned reps then you simply aren't working your main compounds hard enough.
 
Abs. Presuming sit ups then :o

Nah mate not enough, I do
2 Sets of Crunches 15-20 Reps
Russian Twist 2 sets until failure
Knee Raises
Plank for 2 Mins
Then use a 20kg plate and go sideways down to my feet then raise back up, (not sure what exercise it's called :p)
 
Back
Top Bottom
