I can't do all that "girly" stuff!
Actually those BB hack squats she starts off with are great, I LOVE doing those. Unfortunately I smell an injury coming on with them so I've had to cut them out, strange feeling in my middle back, and since first feeling it on hack squats I'm not getting a similar feeling on flat bench if I put a little power lifter arch into the form. Makes me nervous.

LMAO do them in the privacy of your home Joking aside they are not girly stuff trust me.
I know exactly what you are talking about, I have been getting pain my mid back (tres major muscle). I was talking about it with another more experienced lifter and he suggested that I keep my back more flat on the bench and not arch my back. I am going to try it.
Also another thing that has helped me tremendously is a foam roller. OMG those things are awesome!!!! LBM got me one and I seriously can't live without it.

I don't wear no skinny jeans, but I swear I had trouble getting my thighs into my jeans today after the workout, then because they're tight I had trouble kicking my foot up to put my socks on.
2 scoops Ultra Lemonade Con-Cret
1 scoop Amazing Bubble Gum Snowcone Gluta-Tren
I think my Squat form is coming along nicely. I'm using a slightly wider stance than when I originally switched to ATG which was very narrow and I'm settling into it quite well I think. I do need to get a vid to verify, but my torso appears to be aligned nicely and not moving and I'm finally able to get my elbows a little more down as before they were back a little further. Arse is dropping way way whey below parallel but it's a comfortable level whereas before I always felt a weird inner hip soreness.
Here's what I got done today, and I'm feeling quite good aboot it as my Squat weight continues to rise despite a pretty heavy calorie deficit (lost 2 lbs since Sunday morning).
ATG Squat
105x5
135x5
160x3
185x3
210x3
240x3
Extra sets
135x10 with 2 second pause at bottom of last rep
135x10 with 2 second pause at bottom of last rep
135x10 with 2 second pause at bottom of last rep
Superset: Seated Leg Curl / Seated Leg Extension
130x10 / 130x10
130x10
130x10
Boss sent a text and interrupted the rest of the workout as I had to haul butt back to work, but my legs feel freaking good anyway.

So my thought's on the Gluta-Tren:
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/pr...luta-tren.html
The wild berry tastes amazing! Something I really think I can drink every day, unlike some of the other supplements I 've tried that just get old fast!
I took it pre-workout and felt it gave me a real rush of energy that helped me keep going even when I wanted to call it quits.
I think next time I'll try taking it intra-workout so I have something to compare it too.
Overall I think the product is a great supplement! It helped me better adjust to the physical aspect of exercising and expect it to really help shape out.
For my workout today looked like this:
Treadmill sprints - 12mph run for 1 min. rest for 2 min.'s, 6x
I did some research on treadmill HIIT workouts and ran across something that suggested a routine based like that so I gave it a shot and felt it really pushed me near my limit physically and tested me mentally. I liked pushing myself like that and plan on making it a go to exercise when ever I want to get some sprints done indoors.
Shoulder press - 200lbs x 15 (2x), x20
I figured I might as well record my first set so I went ahead and did it. I was planning on getting 20 reps but never gone past 12 and burned out at 15. I ended up getting 20 just not on video but I did it I swear! Maybe next time I'll have definitive proof.
DB Step ups - 100lbs x 12 (3x)
Pulldown - 200lbs x 10
Overall I felt the Gluta-Tren really did have a positive impact on my workout today and gave me that extra energy I needed to push myself further than I ever have before. I would like to work on my pace better as I spent way too much time in between sets and could have got even more in. Live and you learn.

Today did:
Treadmill Sprints - 6x 1 min. sprints, 2 min. rest
Cable Bench - 200x10, x12, x15(1/2 reps)
DB Lunge - 100x12 (3x)
Cable Rows - 200x12 (3x 1/2 reps)
Tried the fruit punch kool-aid tasting Gluta-Tren today intra workout. Gave me a boost of energy that had me feeling like I could take on any task in the gym no problem. Enjoyed taking it that way and will continue to do so from now on.
Feeling okay about where I'm at. Goal is still the same, to get down to 10% by summer, well mid July. Want to maintain as much weight as possible although and put in enough energy into my lifts to improve them by any means.
All in all the experience with Gluta-Tren so far has been a winning one from the energy surge released during workouts to the great taste.

@ HS, Great start to the GT log!
@ AS, Great vid, keep the camera roll'n. I make some vids too so check'em out at our log (see sig for link)
The shoulder press vid appears that you slide your butt forward to the edge of the seat which engages upper pectorials for an interesting angle for a incline bench press. Excellent show of strength and determination to "raise the bar"!

Wow tough workout mentally with the lack of sleep, been fuzzy all morning and it didn't go away but still knocked out my allotted reps.
2 scoops Lemonade Con-Cret - so nice sipping on that at work.

Yeah I definitely do. I struggle with the decision to either just lower the bar to an incline but keep the seat up which will more effectively give me a shoulder/incline workout, do less weight, or just do perfect form but only be able to get some half reps out.
Instead that's what I do atm. I have access to free weights but not quite all the equipment I need to make it work as well I don't think right now unfortunately.
Had my workout cut short late last night/this morning by an interrupting gf that had me convinced me to go for a late night joy ride. I was able to do:
Treadmill sprints - 6x 1 minute sprints, 2 minute rests
DB step ups - 100lbs x 12
Gluta-Tren consumption was during the end of my treadmill sprints and hit me right as I was finishing and again left me wanting to sprint to Mackinaw Island, well If I could run on water I'd do it. At least that's the feeling I had. Was a cool refreshing drink as well working up a sweat like that nothing taste better than some Wild Berry Gluta-Tren!
Going to get a great workout in later tonight!
How's everything going for you Harry bro? Hope all is well!

Man I'm tired today, definitely in a fog, but my workout went as planned and I feel pretty good after it. I'ma definitely have to try to get more sleep tonight to fight with the deadlifts tomorrow though. I did buy some straps so no more slippery bar excuses, gonna kill those DL tomorrow or break my back trying!
