Love that clip. No hardcore metal music, no fancy editing. Just Mr Corney squatting til he can't stand up, hehe.
If this doesn't make you want to hit the gym, then something's wrong.
What you have to understand is, four days ago he was only my brother in name. And this morning we had pancakes.

Been working a lot the last 10 days or so, and I don't sleep that well either. I mean, I'm tired as fuark, but the body won't allow me to
relax and rest. Waking up 6, 7 times every night and when it's time to go to work it feels like I haven't slept at all.
But I'm still positive and Friday feb 1st will be the beginning of my low volume month, which will look like this:
Workout #1: Upper body (strength)
6 sets x 5 reps Chest
6 sets x 5 reps Back
4 sets x 5 reps Shoulders
Workout #2: Lower body (strength)
6 sets x 5 reps Quads
6 sets x 5 reps Hams
4 sets x 5 reps Calves
Workout #3: Upper body (pump)
6 sets x 10 reps Chest
6 sets x 10 reps Back
4 sets x 10 reps Shoulders
Workout #4: Lower body (pump)
6 sets x 10 reps Quads
6 sets x 10 reps Hams
4 sets x 10 reps Calves
Oh, btw, measured my arms today. Haven't done that for a long time. 20,1 inches (51 cm).
The last time my arms were that big was when I weighed about 30 lbs more. So yeah, they're growing.

Mother of god! Im so jealous, and you dont even curl...>
What weight are you at now?
The low-volume looks good. Btw i also *****d up my knee from the front squat last week :s but i think it was just because of lack of warm up, nothing serious.

Yesterday morning I weighed 230,6 lbs (104,6 kg). I'll start my creatine intake again, so the weight will probably go up to 235 lbs in a few days.
Yeah, I like the low volume training already. Even though I perform only 2 sets per exercise, it's enough to make the muscles really tired.
Take care of your knee mate... hopefully it's just a question of warming up properly.

My very first low volume workout, and it was ok. 65 min is a bit too long, it takes time to walk around
in the gym, preparing each exercise and wait for people to finish their sets a s o. Usually I train
earlier in the day, so it won't be a problem to cut down the time.

It's been the same for me, I think the lack of sleep is going to affect my progress a great deal, but I can't sleep properly for the life of me. Hoping for better days...

Tight, strict form in every rep. Felt really good.
To reset my brain from all the work lately, I've been visiting the movie theater. Zero Dark Thirty was quite good, but surprisingly
straight on with the story. I don't want to say it was hollow, but simple. The Master was entertaining, but I honestly don't know
why, because I couldn't figure out what it was all about. The acting was superb.
Flight was a strange one. Zemeckis's first "live action" movie since Cast Away. Denzel's performance was very good. A drama/crime
investigation that sometimes almost turned into a comedy. Alan Silvestri owned. Lincoln... well, I enjoyed it even though it was
2 h and 30 min of dialogue.

No, I evaluated the results from it, and it was close to zero as far as I could see. Got strong as fuark,
but strength didn't equal size... too bad, I like that exercise.

I think I'm ready for the 110 lbs dumbbells next workout.
Edit (9 hours later): went to see the premiere of A good day to Die Hard. An entertaining action flick with an aging John McLane,
a russian techno viking and some serious J.J. Abrams lens flare effects all over the screen. But I must say, the most intense
action scenes in the movie were freaking amazing. Almost no badly edited green screen crap, which is so painful to watch.

It takes discipline to keep the volume that low when it comes to sets. Often im like "hmm just one more set"
Anyway, seems everything is ok here :-)
Yeah, I have that feeling almost every workout. But it's a good way to tease myself, to stay hungry for more. And at the same
time it helps me to stay sharp every single set.

I've been sick for the first time in several years. Some sort of stomach flu. I've lost a lot of weight,
but mostly water. My appetite is still low, so right now I'm drinking most of the calories.
There's not much to say about todays workout other than I'm glad to be back, even though the strength
was nowhere to be seen.

A lot of people were sick left and right this year, even I got a cold and I don't get sick very often. Hope you feel better! At least you're able to drink some calories, hopefully you're regain your appetite soon.

Thanks, AD, I'm feeling a lot better even though my appetite's still messed up. I guess I'm on balance or slightly below at the moment.

The plan was to go light this session aswell, but I really wanted to press some heavy, controlled reps. So that's what I did.
The bench went okay. The dumbbells felt terrible form wise, and the strength wasn't with me at all. Everything else was kinda good.
