F5 upper/lower split

[QUOTE=Anthony21;1649694883]Looks like your cut did you, good man. Training is looking stout also bro. I'm thinking of starting back up on the intermediate Fierce 5. It's been a while since I ran that and think it might do me good, mentally as well, getting a break from 531 which kind of just gets boring to be honest.[/QUOTE]

I think I lost a Little strength but it’s coming back. That was my favorite program. Eventually I’m going to run a modified heavy light version of fierce 5 upper lower again.

Weight 178 lb

Easy day. De load run up week. Running dbs instead of barbell for the Romanians. Hopefully I don’t run out of weight. I feel these way better than barbell rdls. Weight was 178. Going to cap it at 185 since after that I start to look soft. Nearing that genetic limit.

Made some minor adjustments on the home gym setup. Looks like I have everything I need. Don't want to spend anymore money. Looking to possibly buy a second sports car next summer.

Weight 178 lbs. “Failed” at 195 pendlay row on the first set. I noticed that I was cheating at the top. Decided to drop the weight and do ramped sets.

Once again, 'mirin your home gym.

Mind if I ask what car you've already got? If my finances go according to plan I'll be in the market for one next year.

Thought about getting a lowish-mileage C5 but that's become less appealing over time. Saw an S2000 on the road the other day and I've been thinking about them a lot. Not the coolest or fastest thing ever but I like the personality it has. Also bound to be more reliable than a lot of alternatives in the same price range. Would easily buy an M series but those are nightmares to maintain apparently.

Thx man. Currently got a c6 with a basic A&A blower setup. Looking to get a stock c7z or a c8.

Lol, nice! That's way out of my league but maybe I'll get there someday.

Did get to drive an ex around in a C7 I was lent once in college when we were dating. One of my happy memories.

C7s are nice. I’m a manual junkie so I’m still on the fence on getting a new c8.

Looks like I’m beat on spud inc pulldown. Can’t really pull the weight into position once it gets heavy. Might switch to pull ups. Weight was 178 lbs.
