Back at it

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

I’m finally over my week long battle with sickness and I couldn’t be better.  My workouts are very intense and I’m loving it.  Trained chest on Sunday and back on Tuesday, took yesterday off, and I’m looking forward to my leg routine tonight.  Today I’m going to start off with leg extensions, then leg press.  After that I’m going to my favorite leg excercise the front squat, then back squat.  End it with some high rep leg extension.  I’m going to train hamstrings and calves tomorrow in the a.m. and shoulders in the p.m.  Thanks for all the comments and messages about getting well soon. 

Damn Pathogens

Friday, October 26th, 2007

So I’m sick, one of the things that reminds me and all others like me that we are human. My workouts this week up to yesterday, when the pathogens attacked, were going very good and as scheduled. My chest and back workouts were right on, took a day off and got sick. Now I’ve missed my delt and leg training and looks like I’m going to miss arms too. At this point you ask yourself questions like: Am I getting enough nutrients and enough of the right macromolecules that my body needs, Is my body trying to tell me something, or was it just my time to get sick. On that note I haven’t lost my appetite, thank god, I’m still taking in 4800-5000 calories a day and I assume my body is putting them where they need to go. I’ve decided to take the rest of the week off and just recover. I’ll start again Sunday with chest, eat two animal paks a day, and continue my daily feasting. When your sick your just sick, overtraining could be a possibility but I doubt it. My point is, don’t be afraid to take some time off to recover.

Lifting Heavy is A Mindset (this is in the forums under Workout Journals)

Friday, October 19th, 2007
I have a lot of people come in my gym or ask me out in public how I can lift heavy weight for reps over and over and my answer is its mostly all about the mindset. Now I wouldn’t expect a beginner or an intermediate to come into the gym and lift as much as I do, but I think that they could push themselves beyond their normal threshold. My threshold may be higher than theirs, but if they were to get it in there mind that they could lift something heavy, like say a new 1RM, then it could happen. The longer you can keep that overall mindset with no distractions the more overall reps they could do. For beginners who don’t understand the proper form of the excercise, they should learn the form first, and I do always recommend a spotter, because accidents do happen. I tell them to visualize themselves, in their mind, doing all the reps that they are wanting to accomplish before they even preform the excercise. “Zone out” and don’t let ANYTHING distract you at this point, it’s just you and the weight. When it comes down to it all your pushing against is gravity, right, and it never changes. All big weight looks like 135 from the inside out.
