[AJ010]

Amazing job man!!! Very good job! That's one hell of a PR! I think your WG bench could be anywhere from 255-275 :) Next stop, 315!


Keep up the hard work. It's definately paying off

YEAH BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!
That is what im talking about bro. A 245 closegrip is great. I can only max out with a 260 close grip, your a ****ing animal indeed. I am so happy for you, and ill bet you jumped for joy when you got that. Id say higher than 270-275 bench for you, id give you 280 bro cause thats a damn good close grip. I always closegrip 35-40 lbs over my normal bench. I think you have surpassed where you want to be my friend. Great job and congrats man. Once you do that program i gave you your only gonna go up, so enjoy your vacation and eat some good food for recovery boy.

Absoloutly awesome bro. I told you that you could do it. Im am so proud of you man. You liking these workouts i made for you? Next time try 250 when you have a tripple day.

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro! Im loveing them, tomarrow is bis and some shoulder work, then squats!

[AJ010]

Thats awesome bro!!! You're improving so much lately. I cant wait just to be over 200, and here you are repping so much more than that lol. Keep up the great work man.

[Fullback_45]

Your going to be over 200 soon though. One day itll just hit you. One thing ive learned from all this, is persistance pays off. Its something we both have working in are favor! Keep hiting it hard your ownself bro.

So true bro! It'll be a little bit, but 200 will come for me. And 275 is gonna come for you in no time too, if you keep up these crazy gains! :)

Thanks.

[Fullback_45]

[Fullback_45]

Just decided im going to add some cardio in once per week, keep same diet. Im getting outside my safe zone fat wise. My midsection is getting unhappy on me! Jogging for no more then 25 mintues. Besides football is a month away and i have got to get used to it!

My shoulder plan got fked up because about 20 football players were fking around in the gym today from the school down the street. There badazz coach thinks he owns Gols anyhow. Oh well, ill just go in early next time. Damn nice bicep workout today i think.

[BigKazWSM747]

good workout keep it up!

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro!!! Sure as hell wil!!!

[AmateurWrestler]

fullback, i am so damn happy for you, your persistance has payed off so well, you just kept pounding away at it, and eventually that wall got torn down bad! if you can do 250 for a triple im thinking you could bench 270 with a possibility of 275, either way, 275 is so close now, its gonna be great man


good work

[Fullback_45]

Thanks alot Amateur! Its going to be interesting maxing out in another week. Havent seen any of your posts in awhile. Hows it going?

eh its been weird


i had to go the hospital to get something checked and i have something called horseshoe kidney, plus i gots gyno in my left nipple


i dont know, i just cant keep up, i've been having lots of problems with confidince and ****, and until i get that sorted out i really dont think i will be able to do much


oh well

[Fullback_45]

Sorry to hear that bro. Nothing you can do about medical conditiions, we all have them. I had 11 warts on my hands for like 4 years, until recenetly. What kind of confidence problems you have? Looking good for the ladies or something or just beleaveing in yourself?

Think of it this way, you can only get better with weight training. Try a bodybuilding routine or what not and see how that goes. You made some damn good streangth gains. NOt many people who weight what you do bench 225. Dont let the set backs get the best of you bro. You can change many things about yourself and your charachter with weight training. You aught to really consider lifting as hardcore as you can again. In the end though you know whats best for you. Best of luck through your times man!

thanks man, the kidneys are fine, just weird lol


yeah its always been about believing in myself man, i cant do it, its been this way since as long as i can remember, lol i dont care how how my physique really looks, but i just dont have the confididence, i dont believie in myself


its weird, maybe a bb style routine will help, i dont know

thanks for the kind words i appreciate it

[Fullback_45]

IM the other way around, i have confident issues with my physic but beleave i can lift more then i can at times.

Get back into weights man, that way you can showyourself you can do it.

Weightlifting is for you!!!!

How about that record you were going to go for. That was so abtainable. Maybe you should read all through your journal, and just see how much youve accomplished.

i checked it the other day


all i can think is that i should have done a lot better

[Fullback_45]

How far you go in a sport is all up to you, one thing it takes is persitance though. Well bro, give it a little more time and think about it. Hopefully youll see the light!!! You have are faith and support bro.

thanks man it means a lot to me, i feel like once i got some issues out of the way there will be no stopping me, but until i do, i dont know

[Fullback_45]

Any issues you need to talk about feel free. Otherwise live it up!!! It dont last forever.

[AJ010]

Bump, everything's going great with all you people. Be happy! :)

And Fullback, nice workout! Curls and military is looking good.

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro! I hate the BB military though, it feels so week compared to my DB's.

[Fullback_45]

Day 2 BFS:

Squats: 135x5, 205x3, 225x3, 275x3, 285x3

Stiff Legged Deads: 135x5, 205x6, 135x5

Calve press: 180x15, 270x15, 360x15

Not bad today, my back is tender because i havent squated in awhile. Took them nice and deep in the power rack and made every rep count. SLD's were horrible today, felt really hard and week.

[AJ010]

Workout looked good. Nice that you're squatting again. Calf work looked good. Must have felt heavy ;)

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro!!! Yea, it was hard, hard on my back, you know going down and trying to stay nice and tight, blasting ups the easy part!!!

Anytime man.

Hahaha, i know what ya mean! Only ive felt 255...with a pad! :p

[Fullback_45]

Hehehe, I cant stand that pad. GIve yourself some time and itll be 315 on that bar with the pad!

WTF :mad:

:D


I was doin box squats 2 weeks ago, attempted 300

first time ive felt 300 on my back
surprisingly it felt light on me standing up with it
i found my nice groove wherei like the bar and my feet

just gettin off the box was the prob :D

[Fullback_45]

BFS day 3:

BB Shrugs: 135x8, 205x7, 225x5, 235x

Narrow Stance Deadlifts: 135x3, 205x3, 225x3, 265x3

Powerclean: 135x1, 135x1, 145x1

Goodmornings: 85x5, 95x3, 105x6


Today was pretty HARDcore. BB Shrugs are steel weak. Is it ok to bend the elbows slightly during these? Its the only way i can do them fast and heavy. 265 ALMOST KILLED ME. I had cables and veins, and rod irons comeing out of my neck i didnt know were in there. Braught some interesting sound effects out of me to. HANGCLEANS SUCK. Man, i can let the bar roll back on my finger tips at the top position because my left wrist locks up. I dont know what my max is. Might be 155 or so. I have a feeling i might come is as one of the weekest football players this year.

[John Promise]

Numbers don't look bad.

But if strength is not a strong point in football, maybe you could look for speed.

[BPP]

nah
im sure plenty of the players arent nearly as dedicated bro
just hang in there, and the numbers will shootup

:)

"BB Shrugs are steel weak"--yep, my shrugs are weak as hell, so u must mean me! :D Just jokin i know what you meant

I'm a little confused here. You did powercleans, but you mentioned hang cleans in your comments. Did you get them messed up? And for the power/hang clean, did you max that?

Otherwise, everythings lookin good :)

[Fullback_45]

hahaha my bad steel. I corrected myself the second time i mentinoed it with the HANG clean. I was performing hang cleans. I wasnt about to rip that sh!t of the floor after deads!!! No I didnt max on those today. First time ever doing them and they are hard to do!!!

[AJ010]

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro. Im still trying to get some better photos, need to do it in miday with the sun. That bicep shot just doesnt do me justice.

[AmateurWrestler]

looking big................big man :D

[Fullback_45]

Alright, today is bull**** and nothing more.

Skulls: 65x5, 65x5, 65x5

Pressdowns: 130x10, 160x10, 130x12

I practicalely worked out today on a cup of oats and a protein shake, because i had to go to the DMV take a test, go to my dads work, then go to the gym. Next time im not going on an empty stomach. ALl that matters now is that next week when i max, is that i hit something nice. You know whats funny though, soon as i had my big streangth spell and everything, the football team from down the street, now there starting to hit 225 for like 5 and 6, then do it again for another 5 and 6. I dont think my spottre helped me today wich is GOOD, he was some rude bastard and when i asked him hes like , "uhhhhhh". Didnt feel like he did.


Im going to hit something big though this next week.

[AJ010]

Still looked like a good workout. When you max you're gonna kick some iron ass! :D

Howd the test go?

[BPP]

hey
yeah still got the workout in
dedication man, thats what gets ya there :)

[Fullback_45]

Thanks guys! I took my written test and missed the maximum of 8 lol! First time and i passed. I was so pumped watching those guys lift though, i wanted to lift again. Cant weight to beat some iron bench ass next week!!! Dedication has got me thus far. Only a couple more bench sessions left then i max for football.

[John Promise]

Still, I can't rep 225...yet.

Those sucky workouts, you just have to give it all considering the energy you had. It may not have been as great as last time, but would it have measured up to last time if your energy level was low last time? Don't compare lows to highs. Not sure if it's making sense.

[Fullback_45]

Yea i see what your saying bro. If I would have done worse last time, what would I have thaught of it this time? Its behind me, now i just got to make sure I do everything right for the ol max, on squats to! Thanks bro!

[Fullback_45]

BB Rows: 135x5, 155x5, 160x5

[Fullback_45]

Squats were awsome today, the heavier I went, the easier! 315 was being blasted as soon as i lowered it and it touched the safety bars it flew up so easy. I was going to go for like 8 but i remebered to only do five!!! Hope my squat max is more then 335 this time, it has to be, i just fked up on 335 last time and was to embarrassed to do more! Hope my bench is as good as my squat.

[AJ010]

Holy ****, thats awesome bro! I wish i could rep 3 plates. Hell, my goal is to rep 2 plates at the moment. :-/

Keep up the good work! I bet youll max at well over 335 :)

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro, wish i could hit 300 for a dead !

BB Shrugs: 135x8, 185x8, 205x8

Deadlifts area killer. 255x1 and i was out of it. Felt really strong up to the end there. Im just worried about my bench. Im goign to blast something tomarrow but i dont know what

should be like
135x5, 155x4, then what???? SHould i do it tomarrow? Im really excited and anxious.

[AJ010]

Good work man!

As for the bench question, i think ill let someone else knowledgable answer that. Maybe wait a few days so you're fully fresh...and aftr 155x4, u could bump it to 200x1. But, see what another person says.

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro, ive done some thinking. Itll go like this:

135x5, 155x4, 155x3, 185x2, 225x1, 245x1, 260x1, 275x1

Its got to be go time tomarrow, I dont think i can wait another day. IM going to get some good wrest tongiht, eat so much rice, and oats toamrrow and blast something big!

[Fullback_45]

Oh yea!!! Almost forgot, ordered 2 FI shirts today. Thats like 4 bucks to them!

Your doing good, just work work. As for the bench, tommorow would be a good day to max out. At the end though, you have to max again. I think your bench tommorow should go something like this

135 X 5

185 X 1

240 X 1

250 X 1

275 X 1

That way you get 2 warm up sets, and you wont be totally warped with all those reps you listed earlier. Fill your body with lots of carbs, and drink Gatorade during your workouts from now on in so you keep carbing up and getting that extra energy. Rest for 3 min before you go for your max, and if you think you can get more, go for it. Good luck tommorow, im looking forward to your result.

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro, im going to use that scheme. I just realized i got to max again in like 3 weeks. DAMN IM SO EXCITED!!!!! Its going to be a good day tomarrow!

[AJ010]

Good luck maxing!!!

[BPP]

good luck bro :)

KILLIT!!!

[PainThriller]

How did you do bro? Did you max yet?

[Fullback_45]

Damn it! Anticipation was high, aww well guess im just going to have to wait. Good job bro, get as much gatorade as you can. I buy the HUGE bottles of Gatorade so i have a ton thrughout my workout. Remember, if you can get more than 275, GO FOR IT!

[Fullback_45]

Yea man, it was hard for me to descide not to go. i had a splitting headache, and didnt feel good at all, hadent ben able to eat much because of shopping. My mom is takeing me early tomarrow. Sucks when you only have a permit. Tomarrow is going to be the day, I might have ot max out in the powerrack if no good spotters are around.

[AJ010]

Good luck......again!! :D

[AmateurWrestler]

good luck bro! bump on what painthriller said, shoot for 275 but if you can get more go for it bro! i know you will do great!

[Fullback_45]

THanks bro, about to leave in the 20 mins.

[Fullback_45]

.....................I dont even know were to start...................

Benchpress: 135x5, 185x1, 240x1, 250x1, 255x3/4

Skulls: 65x8, 75x8, 75x10

PRessdowns: 130x12, 160x10, 160x10


F\/CK. This summer I have failed myself. ALl my goals.......failed. 275 BP, 16 inch arms, all that bs is not my reality that im liveing right now. Ive got 2 weeks until football, and then ill be in the gym once a week. Noone puts 25 pounds on the BP in two weeks. It looks like im going to be hitting 250 in front of all my football freinds. Probley 15 kids will hit 250............everyone these days hits 250, when you 185, it aint ****. Looks like ill be hitting 315 in collage.

What piss's me off is, it went up quick....not fast but quick. NO grunting or anything. 255 goes up 3/4's and thats it. I better kill my squat tomarrow or i dont know what im going to do. WOrst ive felt in a long time.

[Fullback_45]

Alright just got my FI Shirts, I must say theren ot bad, Ill try and get a picture or tow of the two I baught.

[Fullback_45]

Alright, got to get geared for next weeks benching.

IM thinking i should keep it light. like

135x6, 175x6x 174x6, 175x6 followed by some extreme heavy rack benches from half of my ROM like i did awhile back????

Not bad tho bro, you still got 3 weeks left to reach your goal on that program. 255 is still pretty good. Just work harder towards it now throughout the rest of the program.

[Fullback_45]

Thanks man,...........................just wasnt my day or something, no excuses, my bench is that week. Yea actuealley i only have 2 weeks. Taken me 3 months to hit 250 from 225, football is going on for 3 months, then ill have to get my bench back up to 250, and in about 6 months i should be at 275, I just dont want to think about it. I know ill kill the squats though.

[AJ010]

Damn bro, that sucks that you missed. Maybe some magic luck will come your way and you;ll nail 275. Its like a time back in october. I was supposed to only get a 5lb pr for 3 board press.....165, and thats all i expected. Little did i know, i got a 20lb pr that day....180. I really hope you get a luck stroke like that.

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro!!! I really appreciate it. And to think our good ol buddy Pain doesnt know if he wants to hit 250 for 8 or 260!!!! Makes ya respect those big weights much more, this kind of experience i guess!

Anytime man!

I know what you mean! Its crazy.

[Fullback_45]

Alright, well, a little note to myself here, Ive finalley ben able to sit and think about today, and what the fk happend. Today, I took to the lift like a little b!tch. I was nervous going in, best way i can describe it is like when you first play football as a midget, and your going up against someone bigger then you for the first time, and your going to have to hit, that kind of feeling. I let the weights b!tch me today. The reason you never here me bitch about a squat is because i dont worry about them, until im in there, then i light them up, im just stressing myself out to much over the bench. I SWEAR though, this is not happening again, next max time, im going 135x5, 185x1, 250x1, then kick some heavy metal ass. There is a lesson to be learned and ive learned mine today.

[BPP]

exactly bro, just keep your head up
we all have those days, look at Mendleson...he never did get to his 900, and barely got to the 825 at BA

theres still time, and youve worked icnredibly hard..be proud!

and as far as the lift, just work hard on lockouts and such for the last few weeks, then lockin out those big #'s will be a joke :)

[Fullback_45]

Hey man thanks a million! Really appreciate it, Yea I still have time! One step at a time, now I got my squat to get some revenge back!

[John Promise]

Sounds almost like my max-out last week. I think part of my problem was using a spot for the last set. Without that safety net, you're forced to get it up come hell or high water..

Try not to harp on it. Work for it, bust your ass, and it'll come when it wants to come. You can't do more than your best and you can't be too disappointed at what your best can accomplish.

[Fullback_45]

Bump, thanks man, think ill start maxing in the power rack from now on.

[Fullback_45]

Squat: 135x5, 205x1, 225x1, 295x1, 315x1, 335 OLD PRx1, 245x1, 350x1, 360x1, 370x1

DB CUrls: 35x16, 40x8, 45x6, 40x4, 35x3

DB hammers: 35x8, 35x8

BB CUrls: 60x8,

Hammer BB CUrls: 60x8, 60x8


Awsome day today i think. put 35 pounds on my old squat. I really want 405 though, anything in the 400's is nice for me. Hopefull next time ill cut all those sets, hit 370, then maybe go for 380 next time i squat. IN the power rack some guy comes over irght next to me and then does some SLDL and his freind ocmes up and start talking about pizza this weekend and bs. The guy to the right is chatting and while doing leg extensions. Over all though HELL YEA!!!!!!!!!

P.S. My deadlift really should be higher, like 315 huh?

Dude ****ing awesome bro. I am mad proud of you. A 370 squat is absoloutly awesome. Great job my brutha, 400 will be yours by the end of this training cycle along with a 275 bench.

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro!!!!!! You mean 405!!!!!!!!! 2 more sad weeks to go then im only going to hit the gym 1 a week on the weekend.


Im thinking on the weekend when football starts itll be like

Benchpress 3x3 with like 225 to stay strong

CG: 1x10, 1x5, 1x5

and some biceps and shrugs. My lower body is always good in football. What you think?

[Fullback_45]

Oh yea, while buying some cleets after the gym, the guy i was talking to is like, "yea what you playing" and i was like Fullback, and hes like "wow **** man, your a big guy" said that a couple times wich made my day that much better!

[PainThriller]

Update your sig bro :D. Tommorow is over and you did indeed kill your squat. And yeah, 405 will be yours no doubt.

[Fullback_45]

DONE!!!!!! My total is kinda week lol.

[PainThriller]

You didn't max on dead yet though so your total probably will be ok. I did some deads today, and i did 315 7 times. It sucks, and i highly doubt i could pull 4 plates even.

[Fullback_45]

Yea but 315 is hell of good!, You could atleast get 380 or so, close to 400.

[BPP]

I pulled 315 with speed the other day, but couldnt match my 405 pr..pulled 365 with minimal struggle though
so im sure your deads up ther :)

and FB excellent job on squats, 405 in no time :)

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro!!!!

[PainThriller]

I guess that is ok if i can realy pull it. I used to pull 405 sumo style for 6 or more, and my max was 440. I wasn't much of a deadlifter. I think i might just become a bench specialist cause thats my best lift, and i keep getting stronger at it.

Thanks proppy, i hope my deads up there. I want to be able to pull 3 plates for 10 atleast. I realy never cared much for deads but i wasn't bad at them. Fullback work as hard as you can with what you got left, and max on your dead. You never know your dead might actually be pretty good.

[Fullback_45]

Im going to try!!! Deads get the best of me quick. Also im going to try and loose about 4 or 5 pounds slowly now, I got up to 188 solid ofr a week now, and i just need to get used to running so im going to start implementing cardio now. ONce per week for 45 minutes. SO basicalley I should come into football season like this:

Position: Fullback/ D-line
Height: 5'10
Weight: 180
Arms: right 15.5, left 15.25
Chest: 44
Waist: 34-35
Forarms: Left 13, Right 14
Claves:15.75
Quads: 23.5


Squat: 370 (405)
Bench: 250 (275)
Deadlift: Killing it day after tomarrow

[AJ010]

****, good job on the squats!! Good luck on the deadlift!

[Fullback_45]

Thanks Bro!

[Fullback_45]

Alright:

Militarypress BB: 95x5, 105x5, 125x5, 135x5

Front Lat DB Raises: 15x16, 15x16

DB Military press seated: 40x10, 40x10


Alright, was going to do cardio today, the only open treadmeal was in between like 5 hot girls on each side. To save my self some hideous embarasement i didnt run today i did shoulders. Place is a fking mad house. SO many people in there, tones of hot chicks, 75 year olds, wanna be BB'ers, and just people in there chilling. Only person missing was Richard Simmons. That classical smooth jazz they play is a bitch to work out to. Wish i had some hardcore lifting freinds, because im a one man powerlifting army in there, and it sucks!

[AJ010]

Workout looked good! You shouldnt have done the cardio anyways, you fatass ;) :D Lol j/k. Whats there to be afraid of?

[Fullback_45]

LOL, you know i think im a fatass until i get in there, then im like, holly **** i look swole, i like the way i look all the way across the gym looking in the mirror, plus that gym lighting does wonders!!! Ummmm..........just cant concentrate around girls, plus im one ugly **** when the blood is flowing and im swetting my ass off!

Pressdowns: 130x12, 160x10, 180x8, 130x12


Horrible guys, im so blown out. I knew right when i went in there i mean 155 just had no speed, 165, no speed or nothing. Probley could of have maxed 200 today. Go over to make things better with rack lockouts, all heavy, went to 255 and did it once and almost fell of the fvucking bench. Tried it again, couldnt get it fvucking up. SO ****ing depressing. I only have 5 dyas to correct this problem. Im fvucked.

[BPP]

dont stress bro
it happens

its like the jordan ad

ive failed over and over and over again
and thats why I succeed

keep in there bro
hard work pays off :)

[Fullback_45]

Thanks a bunch man, You think i should just take the last 5 days off, except for maybe biceps or something and see what i can do when we max for football?

if your maxin in 5 days for football, id say yeah
let those muyscle groups relax a bit...do some bicep work, etc, that wont affect it

youve worked hard bro..the numbers will come
:)

[Fullback_45]

Yea Im sure its in 5 days, we get up, max out at like 7 in the morning, then go and run 4 miles around the neighborhood. TOday i went right hwne i woke up and had some rice and sucked. Got to live up to my bench. People for some reason think i bench like 300 and ****. Well see though how it goes.....thanks bro for the help and encouragement, means alot.

[BPP]

anytime :)

btw did you ever kill the deadlift??

[PainThriller]

Did you max on dead yet man?

[Fullback_45]

The dead, I was going to do yesterday, but had to go to fvucking san Fran. Its going to be tomarrow most likely. My schedules just about as fvucked up as i am sincei dont have my liscence yet.

[Fullback_45]

FVUCK I WANT TO KILL SOMETHING. I feel so pumped right now the gym is only 10 fking miles away now.

[AJ010]

****, that had to hurt. I'm sorry bro. Maybe you just need to rest.

[Fullback_45]

To tell you the truth man, i have no fvucking idea. I insulted myself big time. But there is a lesson to be learned. The one i take away from this one is. When things seem bad, they can get alot worse.

[Fullback_45]

ALright fvuck. I think I know what my problem is. Should I try again tomarrow, like some speed benches, and then some heavy rack lockouts? Or will it be detreminal? What do you guys think, honestly?

[John Promise]

If you're really up to it, go for it...but only if you've got a few days to rest before the big max-out...Make sure you go into max out at the top of your game.

But whatever you do, good luck. Half the struggle is believing in yourself. So focus on the disappointed attitude before anything else. Get yourself psyched up for the upcomeing lift and forget your previous failure.

[AJ010]

I would honestly just wait until maxout. You could practice with a little weight for form sakes....but other than that, dont actually try or bust your ass before max out. You want to be at your best at max out. Before you max out, id recommend 30-60 prior to workout you have complex and simple carbs, and have a good amount of protein. Of course, this is speaking from a personal point, since i workout in the morning and have cereal with milk.

Maybe try an attempt plan like this:

45x10
95x8
135x3
185x1
235x1
maybe try a new PR attempt now before 275...if you're gonna try 275 that is


With all that being said, i wish you best of luck bro.

[Fullback_45]

Thanks guys, I think ill just do my dead and some biceps and wait to bench. What did you mean Steel by doing 235? You think maybe 275 is to high of a goal right now? Im going to be happy with anything over 250 now, preferabley 260ish. If he lets us warm up when we max out ill try something like:

45x10, 135x5, 185x1, 225x1, 250x1, 2--x1

[AJ010]

That 235 would be a warmup weight....not what you'd max lol :p

I think that if you can get everything perfect, that you have 275 in you. Otherwise, 260s no doubt.

Good luck!

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro! Yea im going to take it easy and then go at that bench full force. I hope being around all the guys only gets me more pumped! Im sure it will!

Deadlift: 135x1, 135x1, 135x1, 205x1, 225x1, 245x1, 275x1, 295x1, 315x1, 325x1

Shrugs: 135x8, 185x8, 205x8, 225x8


Awsome workout. COuldnt asked for better. I was nervous about 275 but hit it, finalley 315, some serious gruting, went up nice and fast. 325, errr serious noises, had blew it off the ground, kind of tough pulling it up but it never started to go down. THink I had 10 more in me but i didnt want to risk my form or injury. Shrugs were easy as ****, what a joke they were. SOme guy was doing biceps and triceps, came over right next to me and started doing some shrugs and grunting and doing all kinds of gay **** then went back to his biceps so then i did my shrugs and i dont htink he knew what to think.


Feels good haveing new goals here. I think its my benchpress's turn to go up. total is only 945, though.

[John Promise]

I'd wish you luck, but it's already too late :p
Nice work on the deads!

Ha ha and those crazy-ass bicep boys are always funny.

[AJ010]

[Fullback_45]

I guess thatd be me! :D

Ok, winner gets not 1, not 2, but 3 cookies!!!

[BPP]

sounds like your strong off the ground, weaker in themid of the dead..opposite of me

do 18" deadlifts and like 24" deadlifts for awhile(below and above the knees is about where it is...i set the power rack pins as low as poss...comes out to 18) thatll really strengthen the middle of your deadlift

as long as I can get a weight to my knees, that bad boy WILL go up

:)

congrats bro

[Fullback_45]

Hahaha first one who goes over 300 gets the milk to!



Thanks proppy for the advice. Ill put it to use. Yea at first i thaught it was my sticking point, right off the ground, but when i got heavier one good grunt would get it up and i wouldnt even feel it. Never have had a good lower back.

[bigmatt123]

whos gone by the cookies and milk.i want some.

[Fullback_45]

Lol your over 300, you not included! Well see ya at 400!

[Fullback_45]

Very sad day for me and my family today guys. My last day in the gym before football starts Monday. I mean, the gym has ben my one true only freind this summer, and now im going to only see it 1 day a week if things go good. My parents i know are going to miss picking me up with the biggest smile on my face, I mean im going to miss the hole gym experience. Hope I dont get to emotional in there today. Today, Shoulders and biceps later on.

[Fullback_45]

BB military: 95x6115x3

DB Military: 60x6, 65x6

DB Curls:35x16, 40x8,

DB Hammers:35x8, 35x8,

BB Curls: 70x8, 60x8, 45x18, 60x8

BB Hammers: 60x8, 60x8, 60x8


Every fking football player from the rival school was in there today. Braught alot of pain and destructins into my biceps today!
Cant wait to lay some hat out on those fkers from the other school. Im going to really miss the gym, the lovley ladies, the lovley smile i get from the cute little hispanic chick works behind the counter, the admireation i get, the gym respect i get. THe gym has ben my home this summer. Hope everything this summer i have done carries over to the football field for me. Time to go and listen to a sad song.

[AJ010]

Good workout bro. Sucks that you're gonna not be in the gym for a while. I can understand how that feels, considering i havent lifted for 4 months.

Good luck with football! And maxing!

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro. Yea I havent played fullback since 9th grade. Hope im fast enough. I aint even worrying about my max, im just going to do it when the time comes!

[AJ010]

Well, you could retime your 40yd or do the 100m dash, and see how fast you are.

Just an idea to consider

[Fullback_45]

I think were going to do that MOnday, 40'times. I know our Varsity coach is a big fan of running 40's so ill let ya know. Ill never have your wheels steel!

[Fullback_45]

Oh yea, got any running tips? I heard staying as low as you can helps a tone.

[AJ010]

Haha damn right! I'm always gonna own u on the track ;)

Hmmm....some tips id mention are:

Starting form

1) Dominant leg in front
2) Ass high up
3) Face looking straight
4) arms to your side
5) start your run by pushing off and staying low the first 10 yards

First 10 yards
1) Stay low until you're standing upright after 10 yards
2)Short fast strides
3)Remember that your hands should be in the *karate chop* shape...not fist shape

10-30 yards
1) Go with the flow....gradually widen your stride by the 20 yard mark until the end
2) Just run!

30-40 yards
1) You should be at your fastest part of the run now
2) Run as fast as you can straight through the 40 yard mark until you've sprinted 50-60 yards....trust me, go full speed through that line and dont slow down till 10+ yards after the mark

Just from personal notes

if the site ever comes back on, go to:

All about sprinting

[Fullback_45]

Hey steel, those tips are really helpful. Bring up alot of things ive always forgot and neglected.

I know this isnt weights but, think ill post it because, it was a motherfking workout trust me.

Today first day of practice, 3:00-7:00.

first we ran a quarter of a mile, did some warmups, very intesense. After breaking down into drill and stuff half way throgh we run, two 50's, 2 40's, and 4 20's. Water break then we go back out adn do 50 yard kick offs, full speed, 4 times. Then we broke down into offense. Im going out for fullback so alot of sprints for 20 yards running plays etc. Torwards the end of practice we ran, 2 50's, 2 40's and a 100. FUK guys this was pretty hardcore for me. I just didnt feel fast at all. Felt kinda weird, like felt heavy. Still sucking wind and cramps are a bitch. Any suggestions for the cramps guys?

Potassium, more water, and getting used to it will help.

I dont exacty have experience, since ive never been over 140, sorry.

You have several choices:

1) Start O-lifts
2) Lose weight (slowly)
3) Get used to sprinting

Most likely itll be a combination of those.


Good luck with everything!

[Fullback_45]

Thanks bro! Yea, First I think its getting used to sprinting. Im going and try to get some more potassium in me. I mean, im one of the best built people on the team, and i weight 190 and am leaner then a good bunch, and there are hell of people fatter then me like the tightends. Hmmm o-lifts, i might consider those to do on Saturdays. Thanks bro.

[AJ010]

Anytime man. Good luck with everything.

[PainThriller]

Man i started reading your journal from the beginning, and you realy have come a long way bro. I am proud as hell of you man. Great job, great job.

[Fullback_45]

Hey it's a pleasure helping out others. Im not done contributing, im still going to be here bro. You just keep working, youll add on little by little there is no big rush. I think your strong enough for football and your only going to get stronger. Maybe we could train together sometime. It's a ways away but im sure i might be able to make a trip one day.

[Fullback_45]

Sweet bro, soon as i get my pilots lisence after football, might be a sooner possibleity!

[Fullback_45]

Well got my helmet today, wich hurts like a bitch to wear. Going full pads Thursday. Today we ran
.25 of a mile, 4 40's, at the end 4 40's 2 100's. Felt pretty damn fast today, i ran with the lineman instead of the backs and came in 3rd out of about 28 kids so hell of a day running i think.

[AJ010]

Good job! No cramps today? And when you timin the 40?

[John Promise]

I never thought so either, but there have been a few cute ones at the store lately. ;)

[Fullback_45]

Ive taken your tip about the potassium, ate some patatoes today and a banna, and they werent nearley as bad. I baught a whole bunch of bannanas, going to have some patatoes and eggs tongith ,and a **** load tomarrow!!!!

John, no such thaughts!!!! I mean ive seen a couple alright ones, nothing real special, but my dads from the old school (not hthe racist one though) so you konw how that goes!

[Fullback_45]

Oh Steel, i dont know if were going to time the 40 or not. I dont think my 40 is as bad as i thaught it would be though.

[AJ010]

Good bro! Cramps will be fully gone in no time :)

If you dont time the 40, then oh well, no prob. Would be interesting to see what ya run.

[PainThriller]

Good stuff Fullback. Keep up the great work.

My dad is...he'll work with them and be their best friends, but at home he wants nothing to do with them. "I'm not watching anything with n---!"...****ing hypocrit.

I just think there's something exotic about the dark girls with the long or small, round faces.

[PainThriller]

Originally posted by John Promise

Yeah, and they all have the same attitude. They can have themselves, they dont need me in their life.

[Fullback_45]

Hahaha my dads exactley the same way, I think everyone is though. I like the dark haired white europeans myself.

Steel, I would really like to know my 40 to. A collage fullback averages a 4.7-4.9 40, im thinking mine might be a little higher, but as the season goes on itll get better im sure. I mean i smoke most of the line by about 10 yards even when everyone starts out uneven.

Pain yea that attitude is so unattractive. And it seems as if they all have it. One thing I would hate about working out with Tommy Fannon is sometimes he plays that rap music crap ive noticed.

[Fullback_45]

Also, not this week, but next week im going to be back into the gym, cant live without the gym. I was thinking of a routine like this:

Saturday:

Benchpress 3x3 ex: 135x 185, 225
Powercleans 3x3
Shrugs 3x3

The Next Saturday:

Squat 3x3
Powerclean: 3x3
Snatchs: 3x3


Keep it heavy and explosive, and sometiems light. What you bros think?

[AJ010]

That looks nice and compact. I'd give it a go. If you feel drained, be careful.

And about the 40, 10yds is quite a distance to out run the other players. You're probably around 1-2 sec faster then them in the 40 i bet.

[Fullback_45]

That would be sweet Steel.

Today, did half a warm up lap around he track because we had to take the soccer posts out of the ground and carry them to the soccer field. Made my shoulder burn.

4 20's, 2 40's 2 50's then we did 8 20's. After practice we did "jingle jangers" sprint 10 yards, immediately back into the stance or else he adds more, keep doing that with no break. Did 10 good ones back and fourth.

Got all my gear today. Think I know fullback well enough to go in and get some reps tomarrow. Hope I dont get my ass handed to me. Going to kick some mother****ing ass out there tomarrow when we go full gear. Ive decided my goals are nto to set bench records or the such, but i wnat to be a player that the coach talks about to his players years to come. Still want my 315 benchpress buy next year!

P.S- our weight room is so ****ty, We are going to squat on a fking SMITH MACHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!! Piss's me off .

[Fullback_45]

Oh yea only 1 cramp today!!!!!!!!!!!!! A minor one!

[AJ010]

Thats a kickass workout. You're gonna get much faster quickly :)

Good luck with the 315 bench. I'm sure in some months time you'll get it.

And sorry to hear about your workout place. Thats gotta suck :(

Seems like the cramps are goin away :)

[PainThriller]

Good **** bro. Keep kicking ass.

[Fullback_45]

Yea man, i dont think im fast enough to run with the backs, but once I get my speed down, there going to be fked up. Not my workout center, just the Mesa Verde hardcore lifting ROOM, its not even big enough to call it a gym or anything. Think ill bench on the Smith to hehe!

[AJ010]

Well, you'll gain speed fast, especially if you havent sprinted in a long time. See, if i could run my speed at your size, id actually be able to be a back lol. But, im sure only ill only be WR or RB atm. But i like tacklin people. When we play neighboorhood kid football for fun, i tackle sometimes by jumpin on their back and pullin them back hard. Works almost everytime, even kids over 250 :)

You should be able to bench a lot more on smith lol

[PainThriller]

You guys have to use a hack squat and a smith bench? WTF kind of **** is that? I would kick my coaches ass if he made me use that ****.

[Fullback_45]

Lol Id never be able to live with myself haveing a PR on a Smith. RB is awsome to Steel, some of those guys pack some mass, 160 pounds of it in most cases. Right now the fullback infton of me is 230.

Yea pain lol, we dont own a hack, only this like Smith that i think he ordered out of a magazine.

I hope your coach dies a slow, horrid death for making you guys use that ****.

[Fullback_45]

Lol dont say that, the coach is the best freind I have on the team as far as it comes to me playing! I squat on anything if it gets me to start! Lets wait till after football season Pain lol

Ok ill take it back. He shouldn't have bought that though. You just kick ass you understand man, and lets seriously try to get together sometime. Im going to keep that in the back of my mind.

Yeah, i guess thats true. I would have tried out if my knees didnt hurt. Oh well, theres always neighboorhood football :)

[Fullback_45]

Thing is, if this Fullback goes down, wich he usuealley does, he has to wear knee braces on both legs to play and ankle raps and is prone to injury, I bet Ill be starting!

Lol na, I dont wish that on anyone, because I end up getting hurt instead. He is just prone to it, he has ben out half way through every season since freshman. I play for ya guys, just give your streangth!

[AJ010]

[Fullback_45]

Hahahaha that is a different story, realisticalley, it seems as if i only attract the fat ones, or the nice ones are to shy or some stupid ****. Had to tell a fat one off or two in my time though.
