Ezy curl bar 30kg (3sets x 8-10reps) Felt really good

Cable machine curles 50kg (3sets at 10reps)

Hammer curl, 25kg  (3 sets at 8 reps)

Rope pull down 40kg (3 sets at 8reps)

Bar pushdown 48kg (3 sets at 8reps)

Reverse bar pull down 30kg (3 sets at 8reps)

Amazing pump after the workout and during, may be the GM and PW really kicking in, felt amazing and strong as hell!

Started of with back squats, warm up set first, 15reps, then 3 sets at 90kg for 10reps.

The squats were with good form all the way down to 90 degress. Sets hurt like hell, and I regretted having breakfast 20min before the workout… silly me! But compeleted the sets with good intensity!

Deadlifts, damn hard straight after squats, warm up set of 10 at 60kg, then 3 sets at 80kg’s, felt good and strong but slightly sick, most likely due to the food inside my stomach.

Overall a tough workout, good intensity and felt really strong. No tingles from the PW though.

Was shoulder day, since I had work in the gym early that morning I was quite tired, but took my GM round 50 minutes prior and then  PW pre and during, and had a pretty decent worout.

Upright rows ( 1st set warmup with BB, 2nd set with 30kg 12resps, 3rd set 40kg 12 then 2 more sets at 50kg for 8 reps)

Lateral raises, 3 sets, 10-11 reps at 13.5kg.

Posterior delt rear raises 3 sets, 15reps, 10.5kg

Good overall workout, and seemed to have mroe energy thanks to the supplements, also noticed a pretty massive pump on the delts, they were like rocks!

He’s a big boy, and I have been training like a madman to try catch him up in the strength game.

Todays workout:

Dumble chest on flat bench (3 sets x 12reps ) 35kg each side, then incline bench, same deal but at 33.5kg then finally cable flies with 26kg each side. Was a good workout and good to finally have a decent training partner for chest again to really getting me fired up! Time for some protein I think!

Monday, Tues, Thurs, Fri and Saturday are training days, while Wednesday and Sunday are off days. (even god had a rest day so so be it ;) )

Currently looking at 8-10 reps on exercises, really pushing it to the max on ALL exercises, no drop sets or anything, with a 2min rest between sets. (I find the longer rest has REALLY helped increase my size)

Today was Biceps, went amazingly well for a later than usual workout (2pm)

3 exercises (3 sets of each) barbell curls (25kg) Hammer curls (25kg) and Concentrationm curls (never done these so much weaker on then than a standard curl) (12.5kg)

Huge pump afterwards and intensity was great, creatine mono really helping. Lots of water and high protein diet.
