Gotta new drug, one that won’t quit …
OK I’m tired of circuit training!! It was killing me! It was hard some days to psych myself up to go through the whole body heavy for 3 sets!! So … I started working out bodyparts again! And I feel like an animal in my workouts! Wow, to only work arms or chest … Last night I did shoulders and I thought they were going to explode!!
Monday Chest/Back Cable Pushdowns and decline Bench Presses supersetted 5 sets
Tuesday Arms Curls and Reverse Curls supersetted 5 sets, tricep pushdowns and dumbell kickbacks supersetted 5 sets
Thursday Shoulders/Back Dips and Shoulder Raises 5 sets supersetted Behind the Neck dumbell presses 5 sets
Friday (tanight!) Legs Deadlifts and Calf Raises supersetted 5 sets Then 5 sets of what I call King Kong Calf Raises: I freaking put dumbells, anything, on my universal to get the weight up as high as possible and I use power hooks to hold the bar! Then I do them fast and i feel like my calves are going to explode! I gotta get a calve machine. www.newyorkbarbells.com has one for $469 shipped free. Maybe I’ll win the lottery!
All excercises I do heavy weight. Whenever it feels too heavy and I realize my form isn’t good, cause let’s say my energy is down, I simply kick the weight down a bit. I love also doing drop sets where I’ll immediately drop the weight down and get more reps out. But I also love what I call Hercules Sets where I pick up weight I can only do 1 or 2 reps right after I did a set for say 6 or 7 reps with really heavy weight! Hercules!!!!
Diet remains the same. Always clean. I don’t cheat … period … anymore. And for those of you who do have cheat meals that’s great (and fun!) but for me I just don’t need them. I’m a freak in that a cheat meal for me will be a tablespoon of peanut butter when I wasn’t supposed to have it, or eating some black olives!
But my diet is so down pat now, I can do carb depletes for 3 days on end, cut up, and have no side effects whatsoever as far as energy or dizziness or carb craving! But then again I’m the nut who loves cardio!
I miss BioBex!!!!!
