Bully's Journey From Weak to Freak!

[BergMuscle]

Wow - 4 PRs! You're really killing it with your training. Great job!

[bulldog71]

How'd you get lost up there in New Jersey? Is that where you are originally from? My sister used to live in Mendham. It is a very pretty place!

It's all a blur at this point! lol I followed the "buffalo" in '01 and have bounced around since then, but keep ending up back here! lol I miss Wilmington, NC the most though!

Nice job on the PR's, Bully!

Thanks Hoos! Your back is looking wicked! Nice work!

Thafor your support Berg! I've got a lot of catching up to do with the rest of the youngsters in here!

This is 2 weeks in a row that I feel my shoulder WO has really been less than satisfactory! Not happy about it. I think I may switch back and shoulder day around, and add abs to shoulder day while I'm at it! I just feel that back day takes so much outta me that I can't recover enough to get a good enough shoulder WO in. We'll see what happens next week! To make matters worse, I woke up late and couldn't get my last lift in! Aaaaaarrrrrgggghhhhh! Oh well, I guess some work is better than none!


Today's WO:

Seated DB Press
30x1x12
35x1x12
40x1x12
45x1x12

Side Laterals
22.5x4x12

Bent-over Laterals
17.5x3x12

Wide-grip Upright Rows
50x3x12

Switching the order of your split might be what your shoulders need. Give it a try; what have you got to lose if you've been less than satisfied for two weeks?

And, yes, some work is 100 times better than no work at all.

That's what I'm thinking B! It's time to listen to my body again, rather than sticking to a split "just because"! lol

Thanks Kevin! I've got to work hard to catch you! lol

You are working hard so it wont be long. Good solid workouts you're putting in. And as Beng said...."some work is 100 times better than no work at all."

Great job in getting the workout in.

I think switching up the order is a good idea also. Sorry you're not happy with your shoulder workouts. I'm sure they will come back around.

Happy Monday and GOOOO COCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey, bulldog! What's up for today?

It was supposed to be leg day, but feeling nauseaus and generally achy today. I wisely sat out today's session in exchange for some rest.

I do! The DB presses target the front delts. They also get hit indirectly on chest day. I feel that they receive enough work throughout the week to justify not having a direct WO. Plus, my side and rear delts seem to be lagging behind the other delt heads, and I want to focus a little more on hitting them to create some better symmetry. I liked the wide grip uprights. They really hit the nedial delt head hard!

That was the reason I asked, I was wondering if hitting the front delt directly on shoulder day was even necessary since it does get a lot of work with presses. So, maybe I won't add it either. Hmmm well, I think about that.


Good plan by not working out today if you were weren't feeling good, you probably needed the extra rest. Good job of listening to your body.

Has anyone seen a mad dog running around here? We seem to be missing one. I'm assuming he's too busy busting his tail in the gym so that he doesn't have time to post, because I know this dog would not be just lying around somewhere.

Whats up BD. Where's the workouts?

[ntrllftr]

Where you at kid???

[bulldog71]

To all those that inquired, I decided to take a few days off from the gym. Wasn't feeling that great and needed the rest. I got my new bicycle last week and have been using that for active recovery. I will be hitting the gym tomorrow and back on track! Thanks guys!

[ectoBgone]

Cool. I'm glad everything's okay!
