Its hilarious, they never make it past leg day. lmao

lol, yea finding someone who that will actually stick with you in the gym or that can actually hook up at the same time is a beatch, my squat stands are 3 days out, enroute to my dungeon!!

x2 on that, i feel like i'm so much stronger, but the only thing that has gone up is my deads....

Reading all the sht your goin through mike makes me feel like I'm just a big pu.ssy for my crappy complaints I have about daily life, haha

**mikeh40+** · 11-03-2009, 06:24 PM

gonna train some back today, and then do some much needed cardio,,

so off we go,,

wide grip pull downs
1x 115lb x10
1x 145lb x8
1x 165lb x8
1x 165lb x8
1x 175lb x6.. guess this was ok, not sure is its close to a PB, dont really remember, but i know the reps on the 165lb are up, so the dead-lifting must be making my back stronger, at least thats my thoughts,,

seated v-bar rows super set with behind neck pull downs
1x 205lb x10>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 95lb x10
1x 205lb x12>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>115lb x8
1x 205lb x12>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>115lb x8.. these felt good but i`m really tight in my upper back today for some reason,,,

reverse grip pull downs super set with stiff arm pull downs
1x 115lb x10>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>95lb x10
1x 125lb x10>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>105lb x10... really pumped right now
1x 135lb x8>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>105lb x8.. had nothing left,,,

today felt really good, nice pump in my upper back, especially my rear delts/upper lat area, going to do 30min. of cardio,
not sure what i`ll train tomorrow, i`ll have to ponder on it tonight, lol....
later my friends

Yeah I hear ya. I bought my volkwagon a couple months ago. changed the timing belt, water pump, and the thermostat myself. I didn't even think about going to a shop, since I know it's usually around $1,200 job. I spent 200 on the parts and did it myself. Thermostat took an hour, water pump and timing belt took about 4 lol. well worth it in my eyes though

**HawaiianPride.** · 11-04-2009, 07:39 PM

How old is your volkswagen. They are known for breaking down. Ex GF, girl friend, and my old best friend has one (Jetta all '04 and up), horrible cars. The older models are kick ass and last forever though.

**projecthatch92** · 11-04-2009, 08:35 PM

They must have had bad experiences. Mine's an 02 and I've had no issues with it what so ever, and I know 20+ people also that have vdubs with no issues either

**HawaiianPride.** · 11-04-2009, 09:15 PM

Yeah, like I said all the ones above 04' have major issues. Volkswagen is very popular in the dallas area. My neighbor is a mechanic and a lot of their business comes from Vdubs.

pixil · 11-05-2009, 12:08 AM

Drive a Hyundai like me :P

**HawaiianPride.** · 11-05-2009, 11:00 AM

Most asian models last forever.

Or would you not last 5 minutes with her? LOl JKJK I know if I had that chance I would HAVE to have a round 2,3,4,5,6,,7,8,9. lol Round 1 would be like a good mass routine- 8 reps! Then I would hit some cardio with her

lol,, well its been about 7 years off from squating, and since my deads have shoot up to 340 in the last 2 months, i`m thinking that i can get my squats back up in the 400`s again,, plus i`m kinda sick in the head that way.. lol

aild54 · 11-06-2009, 07:34 AM

Ah, the true masochist will come out in you.

**mikeh40+** · 11-06-2009, 10:42 AM

so yea i got home this morning about 7 and put my new stands together, probably going to do either chest or shoulders today, since i did back and legs already this week, either way i`m pumped, they went together really nice and everything is smooth and stable, lots of different positions to move the various supports up and down so its almost endless, lol... gotta get some sleep first been up all night, but maybe i`ll have sweet dreams of growing real big muscles ,, hahaaaa

That's awesome, you're definately going to shock your body. You could even use it for deadlifts to so you rack and unrack it easier, heavy bb curls, skullcrushers, omg the possibilities!!
