Yeah, I gets down with the homies

I'm just going to combine my legs and upper body workouts tomorrow, instead of upper today and legs tomorrow. May reduce overall volume a hair to compensate. I had to pack giant coils all night and I'm wore the gently caress out. I sort of wonder what's more efficient, going to the gym anyway one night when you're super tired and know your form will probably suffer, or putting it off a day, and doing it when you'll be more fresh. I mean skipping workouts is one thing but it's just delaying upper body a day. It'll still be hit twice this week like normal. I don't get these super tough nights too terribly often so it's not a frequent thing. I'm guessing something like that is pretty minor and it's more skipping a workout here and there that adds up that slows you down a lot.

You could just do a lighter routine if you're tired, less volume or less weight or decide to stop midway if you're too gassed or your form is hurting.

IT'S LEGO, not Legos. Heh


I was super tired and decide to do my 100 workout. I do 100 reps each of:

Push-ups
Sit-ups
Triceps push down
Curls
OHP
Squats

All with enough weight that I can do 25 reps at a time (minus the body weight exercises of course)

plz post your burrito regimen thank you

There's this family owned Mexican place down the street from work that I've probably funnelled thousands of dollars into by now. Eat there at least once a week and at one point literally everyday for 3 months.

My personal favourite is (on the biggest tortilla) tinga, black bean paste, Mexican rice, pico de gallo, extra cilantro, sour cream and burrito sauce, and then a big container of tomatillo salsa verde to pour on top of every bite as I eat it. It's like $14 because it's enormous but worth every penny.

You don't grow when working out, you grow when recovering after working out, so once a week in the gym is optimal.

At my local mex joint I get the giant burrito with steak, so much loving protein. I don't get there as often as I'd like because my wife isn't a fan and she is a horrible person.

This morning in the gym I saw a new person doing shrugs with 65# DBs. He was doing a little bunny hop each rep to get those heavy things up there.

I'm glad I put my workout off a day, I set a new PR on dumbell bench. Since they jump up in increments of 10lbs total, I start at say 40, 3x8, then try 3x10, then when I'm able to hit 12 on all my sets, then I make the next weight jump. Is that how you guys do progressive overload with dumbell bench?

Also, when I said I was "tired" I was doing heavy, well heavy for doing it repetitively all night, lifting so my actual back and abs muscles were wore the gently caress out. Probably could have still went light but I wanted to set the PRs so it works out. Dumbell bench is still weak as gently caress but it's going up steadily, hopeful it makes my barbell bench go up on the strength days. For a while there I was spinning my wheels a little with 150 lbs when I was doing the 3x5/5x5 poo poo. Plus now that I use dumbells on the hypertophy day, I actually get a good pump in my pecs I get to stare at in the mirror when I get home.
