strangecloud's 2012 Transformation

[RippityMcRipple]

any reason you like the wide grip bb curls?

[strangeclouds]

why so much protein? youon that slin time?

No slin, I just happen to like protein dense foods. Its moderate protein intake for me... 500g would be getting high. And plus, I'm on a macro cycling keto specific diet.

[strangeclouds]

any reason you like the wide grip bb curls?

They add thickness to your bi's, but I actually prefer a closer grip on bi's.

[strangeclouds]

Haven't really thought much about it, but the full body routines will likely be something as follows:

Squats (various stance positions)
Front Squats or Lunges
Leg Press w/ Calf Extensions

Flat Bench Press (various grips)
Incline Press (various grips)
Skull Crushers
DB or Cable Flyes
Tricep Rope Extensions
BB Pull Overs
Dips (3 sets for Chest; 3 sets for Tri's)

Pull-Ups or Chin-Ups
Face Pulls
Lat Pulldowns
Bent Over Rear Delt Raises
Bent Over Rows
Good Mornings
Straight Legged Deadlift

I'll likely try to circuit train all this for 3 sets to start with, and try to work my way up to 5 - 8 sets.

[strangeclouds]

Thanks brother. My workouts are usually 2 - 3 hours (not incl cardio) in length. So a little longer than the average gym goer.

Lookin to hit 12 more sets of incline; then moving over to straight legged deads where I'm hoping to use 315lbs for 20 sets of 20 reps. Stay tuned!

[strangeclouds]

Finished up the incline all nice and good... 20 sets of 252.5 for at least 8 reps/set. The last 10 sets, I super setted with drop sets of db flyes 50's x 20, 35's x 30, 20's x 50. Chest got super pumped from that. Then hit off 4 sets of dips to failure supersetted with 20 rep sets of pec dek at 225lbs. For deads, I did 2 sets of 315 x 20 but my back was feeling a little iffy, so I dropped the weight considerably (205lbs) and continued to complete all 18 sets of SLDL's for 20 reps.

Saved tri's to work tomorrow alongside bi's

Can't always go heavy. Bi's were fried.. prob should not have even hit them last night.

[Juustin]

I was going to ask why a guy like you could only do so little weight on pushdowns when you skullcrush 135 like it's nothing, but then I realized you wrote "ROPE" pushdowns and I was like: dayum.

Nice workout, must of had a killer arm pump after over 300 reps of bicep curls

[strangeclouds]

lol yeah it was nice esp having the tri's pumped a bit and the vascularity was really showin through.

Didn't realize you were being sarcastic.
My bad.

[Roman_God]

Why did you get banned?

For admitting to AAS use in Jeffbelittle's callout thread. As soon as I said yes I'm not natural etc etc several people reported me and had me banned. Pretty gay. lol

And now I'm about to roid rage without any roids... my cycle was supposed to start today, but my pins are nowhere to be found.

Sucks ass, the kid is a ****.
What sized pin?
Jw, have you watched bigger, stronger, faster.
After I watched that, was the first time I've ever considered AAS.

There's no hard feelings.. its no big deal. I'll be using 23g cause the oils I have are a little thicker and don't flow easily through a 25g. Hopefully 23's don't hurt the chest and bi's too badly.

And yes, Ive seen BFS, though it really didn't change my view on AAS at all. lol

Ordered more pins, hopefully they'll be here by next Wednes.

Ive been taking the last few days off for recovery, got bored and found myself back in the gym today. lol Hit 365 for some triples on Incline. Thinkn I need to add about 50lbs to my Incline to start coming close to hittin that 315 x 20.

About to try some RG incline presses.. never tried em before, we'll see how well it hits the 'upper chest'.

[jbball92]

RG incline eh?

my buddy does those, and swears by them

one thing though, since you have never done them before I would have a spotter for the liftoff since it can be quite brutal
