    Been ‘off’ my schedule for 2 weeks. 1 week completely off weights and last week in an unfamiliar gym.

    I didn’t keep record of the workouts but did back/bi, chest/tri/delts, legs, then started over back/bi, and chest/tri/delts. Time for legs again.

    Back to my gym. Hopefully last day with my old smith machine (a Yukon). I purchased a used Tuff Stuff Smith via auction a few weeks back and painted exposed areas. It is in excellent shape and has linear bearings. Like mine, it has a lat (high & low) attachment. I think I’ll really like the new one.

    Monday March 2, 2020 - Back and Biceps

    Slept 7.3 Hours.

    Replaced Yukon Smith Machine & Lat with Tuff Stuff Smith & Lat Machine. Both are much smoother. For the lats, I need to have weights somewhat balanced on both sides. Not a problem. There is no knee pads for the lat pull down; however, I can use the smith bar (or barbell on front supports) to weight down my lower body. I can’t do ‘high pulls’ as I call them because the weight slide doesn’t go quite as high. These are where I stretch way up high and pull low, kind of like a low pull but with a different angle. So I will substitute ‘normal’ lat pulldowns. The lower pull works like you would expect, but each machine is different so I can’t do quite as many reps with the same weight (yet). I am quite pleased with the new equipment and I got it for a steal at an auction. Also, I spent a week cleaning it and painting needed areas, although it is is nearly in pristine shape.

    Sounds (and looks like, via the text) a great addition to your home gym Brother. Is your gym now complete, or do you have any additional plans for any new equipment?

    Ha ha. You are sounding a bit like my wife! Can you ever have enough toys? . This Smith/Lat was an upgrade (or replacement). Actually it has a smaller footprint so I was able to move one piece (hyperextension) to the larger room. This made my wife happier because it is no longer an obstacle course getting from the smaller to the larger.

    The only thing I really want is a supported T-Bar. I have a design in my head for that where I can fold it mostly out of the way but that will have to wait until I get 220 so I can weld it. But what if I see another Nautilus or Hammer machine? It would make me think.... not once or twice!

    Thursday March 5, 2020 - Back and Biceps

    Slept 6 Hours.

    With the new Smith Machine & Lat machine, I sated I couldn’t do ‘high pulls’ as I call them because the weight stack pole was shorter. I had an epiphany... do them on a bench - this elevates me and reduces the length/height needed It turns out to be just as effective as my prior equipment. High Pulls affect more of the lower lats because it provides more stretch.

    I also can do dips off the side when putting a barbell on the supports just like my old equipment. Happy, happy, happy.

    Abdomen felt much better but still not going to stress it directly. Wondering if I should skip leg presses Wednesday or not. It seems squats don’t affect it.

    With the new Smith Machine & Lat machine, I sated I couldn’t do ‘high pulls’ as I call them because the weight stack pole was shorter. I had an epiphany... do them on a bench - this elevates me and reduces the length/height needed It turns out to be just as effective as my prior equipment. High Pulls affect more of the lower lats because it provides more stretch.

    I also can do dips off the side when putting a barbell on the supports just like my old equipment. Happy, happy, happy.

    When I finished my workout my wife came out to do a little. She wanted me to remove some of the plates from the leg press/sled. So I pulled them off and leaned them on the wall. As I was leaning the last one, she was pointing something out she wanted me to look at and the plate fell back towards me on top of my foot (just in socks since I wasn’t working legs).

    I have at a minimum a swollen foot and nasty bruise. Don’t think it’s broken but if so there’s nothing really to do. Not going to work legs yet.

    Seriously doubt the foot is broken. Swelling is down a bit and can now walk *somewhat* normally.

    Skipped legs yesterday. Squats weren’t the issue, I had a concern about calves as that puts stress on the actual structure and integrity of the foot whereas squats are through the heel and the foot is there for stability. I plan on doing legs during next rotation. Probably Wednesday.

    Yesterday I picked up 2 Nautilus (circa 70’s) Pieces of equipment I won at an auction:

    Super Pullover
    Leg Extension


    I’ll have work for a couple of weeks getting them into shape and put together. My concern is if I have all the pieces. Already know I need at least 3 bolts to attach the seat on one of them. I won’t be able to recover them until after this pandemic because the lady I get to sew the vinyl Naugahyde is elderly and best not to be around her until this passes.
