JHICKS3301'S OffSeason/Contest prep. Road to the Show

[JHICKS3301]

That will be good for XF to let you come down in B'ham bro for this event. I'm sure lots of other supps store/companies will be there.

yeah.. I just would be coming down on my own time and wearing our gear and pass out some of our cards. Just to let people know that we are starting to have a showing outside of the online world.

You'll do awesome

Thanks man, I will be doing the Knoxville Tn Expo on October 9th. Stop by if you can.

Today will be epic on chest day

[JHICKS3301]

such a sick chest day last night... Wanted to go for a PR but didn't have a spotter

Incline Chest BB
135 x 15
185 x 10
225 x 10
255 x 5

wanted to go for 275 for reps but didn't have a spotter so I didn't want to push it

Incline chest DB
Just threw some random DBs up just to get a good pump

Cable chest press
Did random iso movements to get a sick pump and stretch. My chest was in pain after these...

Decline Bench
135 x 10
225 x 10
225 x 10

Pec Deck
Random weight till failure


For tri's, just threw some DB kickbacks, Single Rope Ext, DB single arm overhead, and dips in. Nothing major but had a sick pump in the arms


All in all it was a good workout. I was soaked from sweating as always. Tonight will be back and some bi work

[audieswu]

Nice chest day John! What type of training program are you following or you made your own?

[JHICKS3301]

Nice chest day John! What type of training program are you following or you made your own?

I just made my own... .I really focus on the pump more though than I do strength. I make sure I get the decent reps up there and basically I go until failure. Pump as much blood in the muscle as possible...



btw, I'm outgrowing my XL xtreme Formulations shirt... I need Dave to make a special run just for me lol

[audieswu]

Thanks for the reps big John! Reps on recharge for me.

[Phrak]

Bulking is a good time. I just finally outgrew large shirts (toss me over your XF shirts you outgrow :P)! I feel like im almost an adult now ahaha. But then you look in the mirrior and you go wtf this sucks im fat. So ive just learned to avoid the mirrior like the plague during this bulk.

[K8Stop]

HAHA nice rep comment, Hicks!

[JHICKS3301]

I've kept a lot of my old clothes so I should be good to go. It will be like having all new clothes again lol

Yeah one thing I do not like is how swole my face looks lol. But that's just a part of the game. Hopefully next offseason, I will keep my BF a little bit lower than what I'm at now

HAHA nice rep comment, Hicks!
