won't you f'ing whistle



sober is the truth....take a step back and check the ego. tough thing to do....so i started something different today
not quite bodybuilding and yet not all strongman. if anyone knows me i love to lift heavy. it is therapy and meditation. the iron and me, that is it. nothing else exists at that point.
i discovered that i cannot push myself to the brink too long. things hurt and old injuries flare up. i have about 5 weeks of real heavy lifting in me before that happens. and that is what occurred. now i am going to try for more volume. i will keep the weights high but sub-max. 3 days in the gym lifting: shoulders/tris, legs/abs, chest/back.
simple...i am also going to throw in a couple conditioning workouts with kettlebells.
diet will be cleaner this time around. i am using humapro and chain'd out along with some other clean sources of protein. going to backload carbs too. no junk though! worst carbs might be some white bread. sunday will be a cheat day for me....can't beat a trip to the diner for breakfast.


so here is what today was like....

HS shoulder press 180x5 2 sets, 230x8 5 sets, 180x8, 140x8, 90x10

wide grip upright rows on smith machine 135x8, 225x8 6 sets

cable lateral 20x10, 30x10, 40x10, 35x10, 25x10, 15x15, 10x20
