just the same old, same old. low back just been taking a beating lately and now it's bothering me. hopefully it'll loosen up by this afternoon, so I can run on the treadmill.

Nice....My family already donated money and blood. People here are very giving so there should be no worries about help. Also part of the group that helped out in 9/11 from my province went down last thrusday to help out. My dad knew 2 of the guys. Great guys and very qualified.

**heavylifter954** · 09-06-2005, 12:35 PM

have you been considering replacing deads with powercleans??? id try em out on your next workout and see how you like them....since its a new exersize (i think) for you then you might get some good gains off it

**j_neatherlin** · 09-06-2005, 02:07 PM

yeah, you asked me about the cleans the other day. my clean form is really horrible and I don't think would be worth the exchange.

glad to hear that the folks in NO have some good help coming to them. They certainly need it.

Chest
15 min stationary bike

Flat BB press 325x2, 315x2

Incline DB press 110x6, x6, x5
Dips (BW+100) x8, x6

5 min treadmill @ 5% incline

15 min IBUR, 2% incline, 4.5 mph/7.7 mph

Total lifting time: 20 min

Comments
So, flat presses were just horrible. I had planned on doing 3x3 with 325, but I just wasn't strong today. Maybe it was an off day, or maybe it is a side effect of the Melting Point. Time will tell. Still pissed, though. Inclines and dips were okay. Nothing special. Thinking about taking some longer rest periods, since I am finishing all of my workouts in 20-30 min...which is just not necessary. IBUR went really well.

Hey man... I wish we could just go forward all the time. Sometimes you have to take a few steps back to build momentum again. Your still as strong as a ox though. Good numbers none-the-less.

**MXdawg2** · 09-06-2005, 02:14 PM

How short are your rest periods? Just wondering.

**heavylifter954** · 09-06-2005, 02:52 PM

umm......nice inclines

**GhostfaceKillah** · 09-06-2005, 03:15 PM

Nice numbers. I bet the Melting Point has at least something to do with it, psychologically, physiologically, or both.

**j_neatherlin** · 09-06-2005, 03:31 PM

i don't time the rest periods, i just try not to wait too long. I'd guess that my rest periods for today's workout were ~3 minutes each...but for some reason I take forever to recover, so I need more like 10 minutes for presses if I want to push good weight.

10 minutes? That's enough time to hit on a girl in the gym, get her number, take her out to eat, and kiss her goodnight.

Just what I was thinking, just in different terms.

That is a long ass rest period, but whatever works for you.

**j_neatherlin** · 09-06-2005, 03:41 PM

well, its really only like that for presses. i can take much shorter rest periods with squats, deads, rows, chins, etc and push max weights...but with presses, i just suck

Yeah, I know what you mean. I'm like that with squats. Takes me forever to recover from a set.

**heavylifter954** · 09-06-2005, 09:30 PM

im the same way...im like that on all pushing exersizes. but on bb rows i could do 205 x 6 to failure take a 1-2 min break and do it again...for me i think this is because i hate pulling movements and i get horrible contraction... im like this on all pulling exersizes besides deads and curls

**DARBP2** · 09-06-2005, 09:58 PM

I want to give blood, I really do. Unfortunately...........used to have a bit of a drug problem and I dont think I can give blood

. Im clean now, this is like 2 years ago (*******). yep, coke at 15, i was an idiot.

Pretty good workout today. Low back started to cramp during IBUR, so I cut it short. Squats were nice. First set used a pretty narrow stance and were pretty tough. Second set, used a bit of a wider stance and was much easier. Felt a pop in my back on the 2nd rep of the 2nd set accompanied by and audible "pop"...so I decided not to do a 3rd set, since the last thing I need is to reaggravate my low back. Legs are fried, esp the hams.

oh and also....this coming Tuesday go buy

**JAGERBOY** · 09-08-2005, 03:24 PM

Stop doing IBUR before legs....thank you.

**Jesin** · 09-08-2005, 03:27 PM

Nice workout J

**MXdawg2** · 09-08-2005, 03:28 PM

Strong workout. Agree with the cardio before legs.
I saw the Ali G movie, funny as ****. East Staines Massive reppin' aight.

**JFP** · 09-08-2005, 03:38 PM

Wow nice workout. I would say to put the cardio before legs. I wouldnt want to runa after i squated 300 either.

This isn't a sound we like our bodies to make. In my experience, the real tenderness/tightness kicks in ~24 hours after hearing the dreaded noise. Hopefully it was just your back firing warning shots. Good workout.

**j_neatherlin** · 09-08-2005, 04:20 PM

yeah GFK, I've had a lot of experience with stuff popping and moving around in my spine while squatting and 9 times out of 10 it results in some sort of sprain/strain injury that puts me down for at least 2 weeks. A lot of times, in the past, I would shift my weight to one side and my hips would rotate to that side, then something would pop and I'd be fcked. Today, there was no leaning or rotating and I normally get stiff a few hours after working out. I'm somewhat stiff, but nothing major...so I'm not worried about it.

See, I'd rather do IBUR before legs than IBUR after legs. Plus, I have big legs as it is...I really don't need them to get any bigger until my upper body catches up.

That what i thought
