    Saturday: Arms Y3T Week 3: Pump not as painful,as last time

    Chest extremely sore( still sore on Monday as I write this)

    9/10 sore
    Joints too! Feel like need a rest day.

    93.9kg weight has been normal now for over a week. Stopped 2-3kilo fluctuations

    Giant set: 3 drop set pressdowns 10-12 reps per drop. Overhead extensions 15-20 reps. Dips to failure.

    4 warm up sets starting very light,then have a break getting music ready. Joints ok after.

    1/ 42kg: 1x10 1x15 1x12 ( been doing too many reps last time 3 sets of 20 :O no wonder the pump was out of control)

    2/ Full stack: 1x11 1x10 1x10 last 10 reps very hard.

    3/ 1x10 1x10 1x10 last set extreme. Start to shorten reps to get done.

    Overhead Extensions

    1/ 35kg: 1x20 easy; joint pain on this set

    2/ 35kg 1x20 should have increased weight

    3/ 38.5kg 1x20 strong. No issues. 2 off full stack...which is amazing!

    Dips:
    1x30 bottom out reps
    2/ 1x21 pump is too much
    3/ 1x23+ 3 extra. [b] Chest feels re-activated/ Sore and full again.

    Downstairs Biceps with Watson dumbbells
    Still unsure of program
    I know it does not say 3 drop sets of Incline dumbbells. But wants Giant sets. Only giving Inclines and Spider curls. Which is not enough volume
    So I do it my way: 3 drop sets+ Spider= 65 reps per set

    12.5kg
    1/ 1x20 1x15 1x15
    2/ 1x20 1x15 1x15
    3/ 1x20 easy 1x15 1x15 rest on knees between sets.

    4/bonus: 15kg: 1x20 and pause to go again. No chance. Not even 1 rep.

    Spider curls. Super sets with inclines
    7kg
    1/ 1x15 1x5
    2/ 1x14 1x8
    3/ 1x14 1x6

    Bonus round: Gym empty: 6pm workout. Should be out by 7.. Stayed till 7.30+

    Twists with Ez Bar
    5kg/side
    1x20 1x8
    1x20 1x10
    1x20 1x10

    Reverse cable curls
    17.5kg x20
    24kg too heavy: 21kg x 20 not feel as nice as lower weight
    17.5kg x 20

    Downstairs cable curls on machine
    53kg
    1x20
    1x20
    1x20
    60kg rested x20

    Looking amazing Jacked all over.
    The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.

    Sunday: legs : Y3T week 3: Lower back pump killed me

    93.7kg

    Rolled Itb's/Quads and Hams before workout and stretch lower back over it too.

    Giant set week 3:
    Leg press: 40 reps normal. 20-25 reps wide
    Leg Extension: 3 drop sets of 10-12
    Squats: One set of 10-12

    Leg Press: 4 plates/side
    1/ 1x20 1x20 pause not rack. 1x10/5/5 killed me
    2/ 1x20/20 Wide: 1x10 1x10 1x5 just
    3/ 1x20/20 easy after adequate rest. Wide: 1x10 1x5 1x5 could not do 5 more reps.
    4/ 1x20/10/10 lower back pump agony with Belt on. felt constricted. Not help at all Wide 1x5/5/5/

    5/ 1x20 1x20 easy Wide: 1x10 1x5 1x5 1x5 determined to get 25 reps. Lower back fine now.

    Leg Extensions: 33x40/54x15 75x12
    1/ 89x10 82x10 68x10
    2/ 89x10 82x10 68x10
    3/ 89x10 75x10 61x10 last two sets killed me
    4/ 89x10 75x10 61x12 smashed
    5/ 89x10 75x10 61x10 wanted to go heavier/ but failure was on every set.

    Squats:Barx30 20kgx10
    1/ 30kg/side: 1x12 no belt
    2/ 1x10 slow reps. concentrate on form. Shattered and hot at the end. No back pump yet. Just tight
    3/ 1x10 brief sit down to relieve back/ reps felt good
    4/ 1x9 with belt / agony from lower back.So hard to do these reps

    5/ 1x10 no belt. Legs look so amazing! back pump went away for this set. Normalise.

    65 minutes instead of 50 due to pump.

    Took forever to put weights away.

    Came home and just sat for half hour. Then I felt fine. Like it never happened. Not crippled in any way from workout.

    Easter Monday: Week 3 Y3T Shoulders and Parkview fasted cardio

    Parkview ride fasted: 40 mins 13km's Before Leg soreness hit. I did this ride probably best in weeks up hills. Never any hunger pains once had Oxyshred. And can get through with water too. If not for this fat burner. Think I would not have the energy to be awake 90 minutes before ride and keep hunger at bay.

    Legs extremely sore during the day.Lower back very tight too. Not usually happen.

    Thinking I would workout early or at least 6pm. Ha! No. Finish 8.45pm

    94.1kg

    Giant sets:
    Seated side laterals
    Seated front raises
    Rear delts
    Shoulder Press

    Side laterals: 12kg: thought about going heavier.
    1x20 stiff
    1x20
    1x20 first 10 easy and next 10 push through

    Front raise: 12kg
    1x20
    1x20
    1x20

    Rear delts. Had approriate bench beside me to stand up and put head on. Shattered when got to these. Thought I needed heavier weight
    but failure reached at end everytime
    12kg
    1x21
    1x21
    1x20

    Shoulder press: 26kg( last time 24kg) 28kg I remember last year before prep
    1/ 1x20
    2/ 1x20 left arm not smooth and not staying with same pace as right arm
    3/ 1x20 much better reps. Perfect control in unison. no sign of failure before 20th rep.

    Pump so painful at end of the 3 sets had to walk downstairs to weigh in and come back still not gone away. Just train through it.

    Choose Machine press over Plate loaded hammer press: Left arm still weird pain.
    1/ 45kg: 1x20 1x20 1x20
    2/ 1x20 1x20 1x20.. brief pauses. Not rack just hold in air.\
    3/ 50kg thought I might fail on third set. but going heavier was fine: 1x20 1x20 1x20
    with
    Plate side laterals
    Could not pick up 10kg

    5kg: 1/ 1x20
    2/ 1x20 pump is full on now
    3/ 10kg x 10 awkward 5kg 1x10

    Smith Shrugs
    30kg/side
    1x20
    1x20
    1x20
    35kg x 20
    40kg x 15 easy usually hard
    45kg 1x8 killed me

    35kg x 17 also awesome reps
    30kg x 27

    Face Pulls
    17.5kg x 20
    15kg x 20
    15kg x 23.. not have to use bodyweight and lean back so much with less weight.. trying to activate rear delts. Not feeling it like last time

    3 weeks ago when did these.

    Saturday calves and RPM 22nd April: 50kg finally back today

    Moderate RPM class. Never need to wipe brow or wish it was over. Proving it to be too easy. Still soaked.

    Over doing Calves I tell myself.. Going to change exercises.
    then
    Do a blistering 5 sets with 50kg which I not think was up for. Turns out very strong and higher reps than all previous weeks. Back to where I was start of January before shoulder injury. So 3 months to get back to it

    Stretches and 25-30 reps per leg bodyweight shows that I am strong. did a quick set on Standing calf raise with plates loaded.

    Not rush in. Prepare mind and body.

    [b] 50kg dumbbells. 5 sets:[b]

    1/ 1x15 smooth and hold last rep hold/ lots of warm ups really helped. Focussed.
    2/ 1x17 decide to leavbe dumbbells on platform. Step up and take them. Less strain on me. A much better start. Take rings off too
    3/ 1x16 nearly lost it but recovered fine. And hold last rep at top
    4/ 1x17 smooth full reps.
    5/ 1x20 Even did 1 extra rep to make sure got 20 done

    Seated calf raise
    20kg x 25

    25kg
    1x20
    1x20
    1x20

    27.5kg
    1x20 breathrough finally getting higher reps. Instead of 14 every week
    1x20

    30kg:
    1x16
    1x14


    Pinweight
    130x15
    160x15
    180x15
    200kg x10-12 felt good compared to last week

    160kg x 15

    10.20am at gym too long.. Near 2.5 hours dying of hunger..

    7 weeks going to 8 weeks post show and never had Hotcakes yet. Today I needed them( no pizza yet either post show

    Raining in morning. Then Sunny in afternoon. Could have gone Coast. Been too many weeks. No point going as as a Pauper. No fun.

    Daylight workout in my head. 6.30-8.00.. never made food shopping either.

    Standing dumbbell curls

    Warm up barbell: x 30
    12kg x 20

    then downstairs for dumbbells. Only had to put plates under feet to brace self against Incline bench[b] Y3T program never has Standing curls. And I miss them. Substitute for Seated today.

    15kg: 1x10-12
    17.5kg x 10 easy

    20kg x 8
    22.5kg: 1x8 feels very heavy
    2/ 1x8 strong reps and not feel ready for 25kg- out of practice
    3/ 1x8

    Upstairs

    Wide Ezbar curls: 15kg x 8 max last time

    15kg
    1/ 1x8
    2/ 1x10
    3/ 17.5kg x 7 to failure very extreme reps.

    Close Grip Smith
    40kg x 20
    50kg x 12
    52.5kg x 10
    55kg x 10 fast and strong

    57.5kg x 8 now heafvy

    3 Plates: 120kg: 1x6 same as last time. Full to Chest reps. 100% all I got. No chance of another descent set in me :/

    Hammer curls: 22kg x 11
    24kg:
    2/ 1x10 felt too heavy then pushed through it and got work done! Want to grow? then get through the pain threshold.
    3/ 1x10 absolute failure.

    Tricep pressdowns: warm up sets: full stack x 12

    Full stack+3 on top: 1x10 smooth reps.
    2/+4 1x10 : Stand back and still easy reps. Cannot add any more weight on.
    3/ 1x10

    Overhead Extensions: prep sets to make sure good at this.
    42kg x 12
    Full stack[b] PR sets
    45.5kg
    1x10-11
    3/ 1x12 once started very strong reps. ( still extreme to get started.) Amazing when use to struggle with 35kg

    sore lower back for no reason. Needs to be undone and shoulders also getting knotted up
    The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.

    Sunday: legs Week 1 re try again with Aspro Clear!! No back pump/pain

    Parkview ride first up 12.4km 36 minutes.. Just right temperature.. feels good to get fresh air. Went up hill in high gear.

    Squats 6 working sets

    7.20-8.45pm

    No one good here. On public holiday weekend. But I am in the zone and care not for those training beside me.

    Bar x 50
    20kg x 25 deep as possible no knee issues.
    30kg x 15 straight up after 20kg

    40kg: 1x14
    45kg: 1x19

    50kg: 1x8

    55kg: 1x8 perfect deep
    3/ 1x8 solid set everything fine
    4/ 1x9 extra reps to make sure
    5/ 1x9 very happy
    6/ 57.5kg: 1x8 start higher on first 3 reps then go deep. So good have to do extra 3 plates set

    7/ 60kg: 1x4 good depth but higher than usual.. More lack of strength than being crushed.

    Gave it all I could, not up for another set.

    No back issues at all after Aspro clear stopped back pump. No back issues at all. Wanted to train for 3 hours and would have if others working out inspired me.

    Leg Press:
    4Plx 15
    5pl x10

    6 plates x 10
    7 plates x 8 crush me

    8 plates per side: 1x6 Was hoping to get to 9 plates for a few sets
    2/ 1x6 still no improvement

    Would have been here till gone 9pm doing these.. Then need to do 5 sets Hack Squats.. 9.45pm finish no. Not today.

    The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.

    Friday: Chest: Y3T Week 3

    Trying for 7.00-8.00pm

    7.40pm remember stopped RBT on way to gym

    too much talking meant 8.45pm by time finished. As said would work Saturday,meaning 5am wake tomorrow..

    Warm up bar x 91 reps.

    Shoulders feel almost normal. Strong and better condition than last week.

    Giant set x 5:

    Incline Smith: 3 drop sets of 10 for one set.
    20kg x 20
    30kg x 10+
    35kg x 10+

    1/ 35kg: 1x10 1x10 1x10.. Not want to go straight for 40kg. Which i wrote in journal last time that I must increase the weight.

    2/ 40kg: 1x10 1x10 1x10 strong full reps. Very happy. Could go heavier if had partner for proper drop sets.

    3/ 1x10 1x10 1x10 much harder despite alot of rest

    4/ 1x10 1x10 1x10 every set was extreme. Very close to failure on 3rd set but got reps done. Without reducing weight.

    Incline Flyes: 20kg( up from 18kg:
    1/ 1x15 smooth
    2/ 1x15
    3/ 1x15
    4/ 1x12 got nothing

    Flat Flyes: 20kg
    1/ 1x15
    2/ 1x14
    3/ 1x14
    4/ 1x12

    forgot to put Prototype 8. Pump not really appear at all. That whole chest tightening to feel painful feeling on 2nd sets just not there.
    However
    felt nice and full after workout. Perfectly dry. No sweat tonight. Stronger yet no pump? Best weights yet on Week 3 :/


    Cable crossovers: 15kg

    1/ 1x15 1x15 1x10

    2/ 1x15 1x15 1x12

    Wednesday: Hamstrings

    94.0kg

    Glute ham raise being used forever and ruined my workout.

    Standing leg curls
    30kg/per leg: 1x20 1x20 pause 1x20 1x20 warm up

    40kg: 1x20 quality slow reps.
    45kg: 1x15

    50kg: 1x9 each leg

    After talking and waiting. Then take forever to set it up correctly

    Hands on hips. Like I seen Luke do. Creates a connection as can feel hamstrings under your hands. Also makes it look stronger

    1/ 1x20 easy as fresh. Let reps right out.

    2/ 1x20 did extra reps to make sure 20 done. Excruciating last reps.

    3/ 1x20 again did extra reps. To make sure not cheated myself.

    4/ 1x20 Keep tight and not let out as far. Fatigued. Last 5 reps extremely hard.

    Lying single leg curls:
    25kg x 15 each

    32kg 1x12 max

    32kg x 13 left 1x10 right drop set to 25kg: 1x6 each leg

    The Iron never lies to you. You can walk outside and listen to all kinds of talk, get told that you're a god or a total bastard. The Iron will always kick you the real deal. The Iron is the great reference point, the all-knowing perspective giver. Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.

    Monday: Shoulders: Week 1 Y3T 15th May

    Sunday: could not leave the house. Stomach in maximum distress. Really wanted to do Leg workout today. As all the time was mine with no work tomorrow. Going to do a really intense Week 3 workout. Rainy day. No chance of cardio anyway

    Still think Alpha Mars and Alpha Prime started this. As with Hindsight lasted a week from start of using them


    Tried wearing belt and caused too much discomfort.

    Bar x 50

    22kg x20 to burn out. As did with Barbell press=less reps now
    30kg x 15 tried to get off knees. No. Right shoulder still has pain.

    34kg x 12 only way is both at once. right shoulder not like... then

    36kg: 1x10 up fine and otherwise better set. Shoulder not aggravated.

    38kg: Sat on shoulder. Moved up. Caught at sticking point. Frustrated!!

    Pin weight Press: ( plate loaded taken by phantom lifter who never returned. )
    30 x 20
    50 x 20
    65 x 15
    75 x 12

    75+2.5= maximum stack:
    2/ 1x12 smooth controlled reps.
    3/ 1x15
    4/ 1x15 need more weight

    Side Laterals downstairs
    12.5kg x 15 easy/ Pain stays away.

    15kg
    1x10 perfect heavy reps
    1x10
    1x10

    17.5kg would have to change form.

    Face Pulls
    21kg
    1x12
    1x12

    17.5kg
    1x12 drop down one notch to do better reps.

    Front raise cable: 10kg: 3 sets of 10 superset. Right shoulder hated these.

    4/ 21kg x 12 still have to lean back even with set lower.n >> 4th set front raises too.
