    Smile A Day Of Rest

    Today is the first off day for me on the Lean Mass Plan.

    I'm pleased with the results. My back has been sore since last night, that's the good sore. My chest is also sore. I have to admit that I am pleasantly surprised. I wasn't expecting this much soreness with so few sets...

    I am sold on this plan!!!

    THANKS DEREK!

    This is also my first Non Workout Diet day.

    I am consuming less food than the previous two days.

    The food prep is starting to take hold and I'm finding its getting easier each day... on to LEGS tomorrow!

    Legs

    Quads / Hamsstrings / Calves

    BB Squats
    95x10
    Well that was it for squats, wimpy, wimpy...LOL.
    My knees just bothered me too much. These put to much stress on the top of my knees.

    Curved Platform Squat Machine. (FreeMo?)(Plates per side)
    2x10
    3x10
    4x7
    4x7
    I can keep the strain off my knees on this piece of equipment.

    SLDL
    135x10 (wu)
    225x8
    225x8
    Didn't want to push these today.

    Squat Leg Press
    405x10
    495x10
    495x10
    I paused at the bottom of each rep.

    Lying Leg Curl
    130x8
    130x10

    Leg Extension
    100x10
    140x10
    140x10

    Seated Leg Curl
    195x10
    240x6
    I hadn't done these since my training partner got injured back in July. I was stronger than I thought.

    Standing Calf Raise
    495x10 (stack)
    585x10
    630x10

    Seated Calf Raise
    3px10
    4px7

    20 mins cardio Inclined Treadmill

    My Thoughts
    It looks as if I won't be doing BB Squats for awhile, my knees just can't take it. Next week I'll try squatting on the Smith Mach. to see if I can squat without the strain on my knees. If that doesn't work then I'll just use the Freemo (name?) Mach. and incorporate more leg presses.

    I think in a few weeks I'll add some light BB Squats at the end of the session just to see if I can do them.

    Overall my legs right now feel worked pretty well. Except for the squatting failure the WO was good. I'll up some of these numbers next week.

    Overall a good workout.

    Any input regarding the kness and squatting will be appreciated.

    Nice leg workout!

    As for the knees and squatting -- you need to warm your legs up some before hitting the squat rack. I have knee pain too (the right side) and I found that my right side isn't as flexible as the left -- so when I squat I feel pain there. If I warm up, then my flexibility improves and there is less pain.

    Light leg extensions are a great warmup, as are gentle Yoga-type stretches

    Thanks Penny!


    Where is the pain located in your knee?

    Mine is at the top of both knees. It seems to be where the quads tie into the joint.

    Mine tends to be on the inside of my right knee. When I do things like Yoga-type stretches, that knee is much tighter than my left knee. Warming that area up helps in my case.

    Week 1 is History

    Delts / Traps / Abs

    Standing Military Press
    65x10 wu
    95x10 wu
    115x8
    115x7

    BB Shrug
    225x10 wu
    315x8
    425x8
    425x8
    465x6

    The 425# felt easy do I decided to try 465# for fun. I held each rep for 1-2 secs at the top. I love working traps!

    DB Lateral Raise
    30x8
    30x8

    DB SHrugs
    100x10
    100x10

    These were very light so I went for the squeeze at the top. I could have done more weight but I was LAZY. I didn't want to bend down and take the heavier DBs from the lower rack. Next week I'll be moving up the rack towards the 150#ers

    Rear Cable Lateral
    30x8
    30x8

    Prone DB Shrug
    60x10
    80x10

    The 60s were light. I wasn't sure how to do these. I did them on an incline bench. I got a good squeeze in my traps from these.

    Decline Crunch
    BWx20 2 sets

    Back Extensions
    BWx15 2 sets

    Leg Raise
    10x10 2 sets

    Twist
    BWx20 2 sets

    Cardio

    Statonary Bike
    20mins.

    The first week is behind me. I think I have a good feel as to how much weight I'll be able to do for each exercise for the reps required and how much warming up I'll need. I'm looking forward to next week and 3 sets.

    Overall this week I felt at times I wasn't working enough (2sets) but my body said otherwise it was sore from these workouts.

    I'm getting a better feel for the 2500 cal. diet. I felt hungry only on the non workout day, less calories. I'm hoping that after a few weeks on this diet I'll see some fat loss as I continue on to becoming one lean old guy....LOL!

    Thanks!

    BB Shrugs are one of my stronget lifts. I've been working on them for awhile now. I was surprised that 465# wasn't that tough to do for 6 sets, so I decided to set a goal while I'm on this program. My goal is to shrug 495# for reps.

    Next week I'll try 465# for 3 sets. If I get that then I'll do a heavier 'fun' set.

    Sub'd!

    good luck man, kick some ass on this plan.

    looks like back/traps are your strengths. that's good, definitely my weakness so hopefully I can pick up a thing or two.

    Yeah I am surprised sometimes how strong my back lifts are.

    When I first tried to do BB shrugs for 405# I could only get like 2 or 3 reps, with straps, before the bar would roll out of my hands. I just kept at it a few reps at a time. Some days my 'gription' is worhtless and the bar just rolls through my fingers...LOL

    I'm using the same method for 465# a few reps at a time. Working my way to 5 plates, 495#.

    no straps? do you use mixed grip?

    You misread or I mistyped.

    I use straps for my BB shrugs. When I first tried doing 405#, using straps, I could only get 2 or 3 reps before the bar would start rolling out of my hands.

    My grip is both palms facing my body.

    I agree that you have a very strong back, Bill Those shrugs are sick! Also, strong shoulders ... 30lb DBs for lat raises is sick, too

    Have a nice day!

    Week 2

    Back and Chest

    3 Sets


    Bent Over BB Rows
    95x10, 225x6 wu
    245x7
    245x7
    245x7
    255x6..for fun!

    I took Bwelch's advise and dropped the number of reps for the 225# wu. It worked very well.

    Bench Press (Smith)
    95x10, 135x10 wu
    225x7
    225x7
    225x6

    Pull Ups (Neutral Grip)
    BWx10
    BWx8
    BWx7
    I suck at pull ups...LOL.

    Incline BP (Smith)
    95x6, 135x7 wu
    185x8
    185x7
    185x7

    Seated Cable Rows
    210x8
    210x8
    210x8

    Decline Flyes
    50x10
    55x10
    55x9

    Lat Pull Down (reverse)
    160x10
    170x10
    170x7

    Dips
    BWx10 for 3 sets

    Cardio
    20 mins. Incline Treadmill

    Thoughts

    I took Saturday and Sunday as rest days so I was really pumped for todays WO. It worked well alternating between one group of back exercises and a group of chest exercises. The three sets were killer, great pump! This WO took an hour and 45 mins. a bit longer than I planned.

    I decided that for each exercise the first set will be the weight I did the previous week. Then the following sets will be inceased. If I get 6-10 reps on those then I will start with that weight the following week. It seemd to work well today.

    My goal for the BB Rows is to get 275# with good form for 8-10 reps. After my three sets of 245# on the BB Row I still had more in me so I went for 255#.....easy!

    This prompted me to go back a look through my WO book.

    In the interest of full disclosure;

    I have already BB rowed 275# for 3 reps back on October 9th, just for fun. So next week could be it.

    Don't push me now....LOL!

    With the neutral grip I can keep the focus on my back.
