Thanks! I'm really trying on calves lately. Doing them on the plates help a bunch. I've only been doing them that way my last few workouts. It is way more effective than going up to 400+ lbs. from the floor. I'm not totally sure, but I think they are growing a little. Calves are a big problem area for me.
Caze and dagger mixed together... Nice! What color is it :D
Talk about calves of power... way to own it!!

I bet it would be pretty boring if someone watched that whole thing.

What device/camera do you use to record your lifts?
[QUOTE=mtownballer20;976790213]What device/camera do you use to record your lifts?[/QUOTE]
Just a cell phone with a 3.2 megapixel camera. I just prop of the phone with a weight or something. I think it takes pretty decent quality vids for a phone.

Gotta love technology. It beats having to lug a 10 lb. camera around.

I'm glad you got your power back.

[B]Notes:[/B] I mixed one scoop of Dagger and 1.5 scoops of Craze preworkout. I was intending to do a full upper body workout but endend up doing only chest/back. I went a little less heavier today in pretty much everything.

Nice volume on all that Josh. Those underhand rows freak me out, gotta be careful to not do anything to a bicep on those.
[QUOTE=thehobbes;976977333]Nice volume on all that Josh. Those underhand rows freak me out, gotta be careful to not do anything to a bicep on those.[/QUOTE]
Yep. Sometimes the inner elbow part on my left arm bothers me. I notice it on Bicep movements, not so much other things. This is mainly the reason that I haven't been going that hard on arms. It isn't anything major, just an annoyance. I'm sure deadlifting heavy doesn't help also. I figured out a Deadlifting technique today where I get heel drive every time. I did some light work just to practice, not worth logging.
yep, not a fan of the reverse grip rows either. Kills my elbows. But, I do love me some pendlay when done right. Thanks for reminding me, I may get some in tomorrow.

I do a full reset on Pendlay. I think that is the correct way to them.
I'm going to try DTP for shoulders and then DTP for arms tomorrow for something different. I have base weights for each set so I won't have to think about my increases too much and I can adjust from there. Gethin does these parts seperate, so this has a strong possibility to be brutal.
Back in :P IDK where I went.
Nice session I dont see any way to do more work in that session so much work put in. I like to switch from UH rows to OH just diff angles and hits the muscles right.

My plan going in was to do 20 sets for chest and 20 for back, 9 for shoulders, and 12 for both arms and tris. Full upper body workouts are just too damn much
Tomorrows workout might not look that impressive on paper, but that **** is probably going to be brutal. I'm even going to go to bed early and wake up early to eat, so then I can go in on a semi-empty stomach. Last time I did DTP(chest/back) was the Promera log and I about got sick during that workout.
nice chest and back day. personally doing both on the same day never worked for me but looks like it is a hit for you
LL, ton of volume today. I know you said you lightened it up, but you must have been roasted with all that volume :D
[QUOTE=emergency;977037043]nice chest and back day. personally doing both on the same day never worked for me but looks like it is a hit for you[/QUOTE]
I feel that supersetting is the best method for these parts. Otherwise, it would take a long time and one of your parts might suffer

I'm a lot more sore than I had hoped.
I'm getting ready to do DTP for shoulders with a 5-10 minute rest and then do DTP for arms. I have never tried this workouts for these parts so this should be interesting.

Should go without saying, but thoroughly warm-up that elbow. Ice after.
Good luck with the DTP sessions. I did a couple when I was doing Kris Gethin's Trainer, and I really didn't like it. I got bored. Maybe I wasn't doing it right, but to each their own. Hope you get what you want out of it.

I just got done with it. I made it through all of the shoulders and half of the arms. I got sick right at the end of the shoulders. I think a lot of the people who do it don't follow the pyramiding or descending rest. Following the exact rest is really important on this and I think that is where a lot of people go wrong. Since I never did these, I picked out a predetermined weight and went from there. I was pretty close on my shoulder weights, but I went to low on arms.
I'm going to take a shower and go to the Chinese Buffet and then watch Miami at noon. I'll update the workout later on today. I'll put my rest time, predetermined weight, and the weight that I hit in there. If you get the right weight and follow the exact rest, DTP is tough. I'm no expert at it though.
Hey Josh! Have a good weekend! The Amazons think your avi is too small ... we can't drool over the llahhsoj muskelly muskels :)
Miami is horrible. You should tryout next season. Just ended my streak on ESPN streak for the cash. I thought it was over when they had the 10 point lead....
