ok, so yea this thread is going no where fast, not sure if i`m going to log any more or not, workouts are getting harder and harder to fit in lately and my diet, oh hell its not even much of a diet right now, just a feeding frenzy, lol...
going to train Back today, after my coffee kicks in,, gotta re-structure my thoughts and get my head together, anyway, sorry for the lack of updates,,,,,,,,,,,

[mikeh40+]

Todays Glorious Back routine,,
using 50g of glyco-maize/ 10g of creatine and 5 g of 4-1-1 BCAA`s mixed with crystal light for my workout kocktail, << geeze cant even spell out c o c k without a sensor,, fuack-a-me
Not expecting any large numbers on my lifts, not until i can get a regular schedule going with my training, so none of this>>

wide grip pull downs
1x90x12
1x120x10
1x140x8
1x160x7
1x160x5.... hmmm ,,, nothing spectacular but livable..

reverse grip pull downs supra set with DB bench pullovers Dumbbell Pullover Video & Instructions - Muscle & Strength
1x90x10>>>>>>>>>>>>>>55lb x 10
1x110x10>>>>>>>>>>>>>75lb x 8<< that was a bit heavy
1x120x10>>>>>>>>>>>>>60lb x 8
1x130x8>>>>>>>>>>>>><60lb x 8... these give such a good stretch, man i forgot all about these exercises, used to do them all the time,,

1 arm DB bent over rows super set with v-bar rows
I`m really feeling my upper lats burning right now, total fatigue right now, but really nice pump in shoulders and lats,, these should feel brutal.. lol
1x60lbx 10>>>>>>>>170x10
1x75lbx 8>>>>>>>>>170x10
1x90lbx 8>>>>>>>>>170x8... I`m toasted!!

ok, so i think that went fairly well, hit it hard enough to feel fatigued, and should be feeling this tomorrow 4sure, ,
i`ll be working about 5 a.m. so no workout tomorrow, should be home monday night, hard to say, so i`ll really try and keep motivated, i feel so much better after i workout i have to kick my self for being so damn unmotivated lately,
keep after me fella`s, this old dog needs a kick every now and again,

hey hey hey man, You cant talk about my HOMIES thread like that! lol jk Im not trying to tell you what to do or anything but I think you need to keep working out. You said how good it makes you feel, I know exactly what you mean. I need it sometimes. When Im draggin my A** about working out but I finally get it done, im always so happy I did it. Usually two sets into it I forget I wasnt motivated in the first place! But, then again, you might really need to take a break from it all for a bit. If it is possible to balance everything and hang on to your sanity (I know it aint easy!), then keep it up because you deserve to feel good about yourself! Your one of the guys around here that got me posting, before I was even a member I read your posts! You need to be the judge though. If you need anything, please feel free to pm me bro. We are all in this together man. Keep your head up

[chrispghmuscle]

[mikeh40+]

hello my friends, so i`m sittin in my hotel room, broke down and bought a nice 4 meat pizza with mushroomies,, yummy,, only ate half, but it was soooooooooooooooooo damn tasty,,

should be leaving tomorrow morning around 6-9 a.m. depending on when the train gets here, so i`ll try and not slack off when i get home and do a chest workout, no promises, depends on how long my day is,,

and miker, sorry i missed one of your posts last page about what kind of protein i use,
generally its optimum nutrition gold standard whey, but i needed a change so i have a 5lb tub of LG liptropic whey, but just that and the BCAA`s and creatine mono right now,

[mikeh40+]

so lets see, got home last night about 6 in the evening and saw my water pump on my pick-up was leaking, so off to NAPA to buy a new pump, ended up going back 2 times for the correct replacement, finished up putting everything back together at about midnight, damn i`m so tired of things going to hell, my vehicles will be rebuilt by the end of the year if all this crap keeps up the way its been going,,, not sure if i`ll workout or not, just waking up and am tired and wondering if i have the motivation to train today or not, gotta drink some coffee and see how i feel,,, urgh!!!

thanks pride!! yep feel like i actually did something for the day, lol

[rmike]

Yeah thats what its all about for me. feeling good about what I did each day. After a hard day ar work, I come home and exhaust myself in my garage with my steel. I love the feeling after I get out of the shower and im just laying in bed and all my muscles are burning. I sleep like a big, fat, drunken baby lol. Thats when life is good, even if everything I cant control is out of control.
Keep up the great work mike, your workouts are looking good. Im going to go hit chest and post my last three days because I havent been on for a while

nice workout, nothing like super-setting the same bodypart to get a great pump.

[mikeh40+]

yea, supersets are brutal also if you push yourself and go as heavy as possible, but makes the next exercise a real biatch to go heavy on,

[HawaiianPride.]

Aint that the truth ^^
