XXX666’s BodyBlog

How could I train with the volume i achieved and walk out the gym door feeling like i did nothing????  Snatches, clean-n-press, over head presses with chains and several isolation movements.  Nothing, not even a cramp or slightest pump.   

New method of attack……….

Today i got a nice email from the site’s admin asking me where my ever so popular "bodyblog" hasn’t been updated.  Somedays i don’t have anything to say, get over it admin,

Okay, sometimes you need to re-invent your routines and attitudes you bring into the front door of your gym or into the room/space you work out in.  Doing the same thing repeated gets stale, your body gets stale when your mind gets stale so you are in constant need of change.  Your duration of change will vary but it was time that i changed a few things.  I’m still starting off my workouts with some power lifting.  I started using chains which gives me a constant increase in resistance throughout the entire range of motion.  I have also begun to superset more.  "and thats all i got to say about that"

I went to bed extra early only to have the dog wake me up around 12:30am, for no reason either he just decided he wanted to go outside and sit there.  So I ate in light of not being thrilled about being awake.  So I forced myself out of bed at 5:30 to put he last coat of poly-seal on my boat trailer, the same boat trailer with less than 1000 miles on it and started to rust, amazing.

Monday was shoulders, started things off typically with some snatches then cleans-n-press follwed up with chains on overhead presses and the dumbell work.  I often wonder if people realize how important strong traps and rear delts are in keeping your shoulders together, by that i mean not ripping rotator cuffs and other crippling damage.  Funny how most can bench and squat but thier traps and rear delts suck.

Tis the season for doush bags to flood the gym, not put thier shit back and spend all thier time doing more BS than actual training.  This isn’t like planting a garden and watching it bloom in a matter of weeks, i’ve been torturing myself for over 15 years now; find a genie if you think it will happen over night.

Off to the kitchen for b-fast then on the beltway for work, which reminds me I need diesel for the truck so I need to go get raped over the fuel station first.

Affliction?  Why is everybody afflicted lately?  I’m really entertained by the UFC fans walking around in thier skulls, fire and tribal grafic shirts; none of them have run more than 10 feet since they have been a kid let alone lift anything heavier than a bag of crap they bought at wal-mart.

I watched Rambo about 6 times this weekend; loved every minute of it.

 So this past week i made up some lifting chains due to the fact my pansie commerical golds gym doesn’t support the diabolic head cases like myself.  *I miss you Iron Works and South Side Barbell*  I’m going to try and find heavier linkage, i like it.
