Back looks uneven in the pictures, but it's not. My arm position is strange lol

Spoiler!

I'm now starting to do higher reps and less weight for more size. What should I work on specifically?

Thanks!!!

u fuckin chode LOL gonna go do intense back now

[Excelsis]

so this is what's it like to workout at 4pm..

started off doing squats, whilst i'm resting this personal trainer takes off one plate and puts it for the guy she was working with until i say that's mine
Then she stands behind me so i have little movement to even do a squat..

After i tell her to move, i see her telling the guy to do a deadlift, man was he rounding his back, told him to arch his back otherwise he's going to get hurt

Anyways, switched to overhead presses and halfway between my sets this guy comes up to me and says "How many more sets"?

Spoiler!

After was done that, i rested and waited the guy to come.. he never came..

Started doing deadlifts, and took a plate off the bar next to me which the personal trainer was using so i could do my last set.. Btw, she didn't put away the bar, just left it there, so i figured she wouldn't come back. Of course she comes back, and asks me to give her the plate. Took a plate 10 metres away and gave it to her

Spoiler!

I'll stick to workouts in the morning

[Neva]

^^totally why I do my workouts before I turn in for the night around midnight.

I used to go right after work cuz my shop is right beside my gym but there's so many dumb people and I hate waiting for a bench or the rack cuz it's so packed

[Excelsis]

for people here doing stronglifts 5x5, how long do you rest between each working set?

this^ all depends , if you're just starting into the program the weights are gonna be light so ..why take such a long break ? but up to you i guess haha :P im only on week 2 ;o bout to go gym

ps : for those who did/doing the stronglift, when things get heavy do you use a spotter ? or do you just lower the weight and resume again so everything you do is without a spotter?

[Splmash]

new PR for dumbbell presses =D

8 reps of the 110 lbs.

same with incline db press last week i was able to push out 85lbs 8/8/8 today 5/5/5

[BrRsn]

fuck ... if you guys think the gyms bad now, just wait till the new year's resolutioners come in and start stinking the place up. They'll be gone by mid january probably though. Sigh. Will probably make for some good LOL's though.


I think for the first time since September 2009 .. it is time to cut. Cousins weddings in May .. mexico trips coming up in June .. can't be the fat dude in the pool. Good bye 225 lb gut .. was good knowing you .. gonna miss you. Will think of you every time I see a donut lol

Gonna restart 5x5 with good diet, whoop.

[RRxtar]
