Chest/Abs and Macros

I'm back!! On Wednesday I had done Back/Hams. I have it logged at home but forgot to log it here. My Hams are fried still.

I am feeling very refreshed even after taking one day off yesterday and raising carbs. I was going crazy to get in there today so i said screw it and did. It was suppose to be a cardio day but changed it to my scheduled workout for yesterday. I didn't do biceps because my forearm is still hurting so i'm taking a week off from doing them. I kept carbs at 275g yesterday, today and again tomorrow. On Sunday I will resume my prescribed cardio regime and my new macros you gave me Wednesday. My thought process is....10 weeks left, no time to be taking days off or f**king around but yesterday really felt great to do nothing.

Workout

only working sets

Db Press - 90 x 9, 90 x 7,
90 x 6
Incline BB Press -
155 x 10, 175 x 8(2), 175 x 6(2)(2)
Weighted Dips - 90 x 7, 90 x 7, 45 x 10(2), BW x failure, BW x failure
Incline Flyes - 40 x 10, 40 x 10, 40 x 10
Decline Crunches - BW x 20, BW x 18, BW x 15
Leg Raises - BW x 12, BW x 10, BW x 10
Seated Cable Crunches - 75 x 8, 60 x 12, 60 x 12

I kept intensity the same but lowered my volume. I think this will help mentally. Also, I am really starting to focus on moving the weight and feeling the muscle work instead of just pounding out the weight. Strict form all the time now even if weight has to suffer. I did some rest/pause reps today. I put them in (x). Example, did a set to 8, re-rack, took 15-20 seconds break, banged out two more. Felt good.

Still can't go max on biceps. Forearm still hurts. Hammer Curls kill the most. Will keep doing this routine which isn't so bad until the pain subsides.

I am really leaning out. Yesterday I could see the veins in my quads and this morning in my chest. I've never been this vascular before.

Here's a question for you. Why is it that every week i never get below last week's weigh in until the actual Saturday. The way it seems to work is

Sat - refeed - lowest weight
Sun - come in maybe 1 lbs heavier
Mon - come in 1 pound heavier than Saturday
Tues - come in about the same as Saturday's weigh in
Wed - Thurs - Fri - come in 1-2 pounds heavier then Saturday's weigh in and the weight might fluctuate by 0.2 pounds daily.
Sat - weigh in close to last saturday or lose a pound

It is the EXACT same thing every week.

Not as strong as usual. Probably because of my chest workout yesterday and my tris taking a beating as well. Usually behind the neck presses in the smith machine feel so good for me while to the front feels awkward but not this time. I really felt it in my front delts. Couldn't use as much weight though...not sure if it's because of the angle of because of yesterday's workout. I had to lower my weights for db curls since my left forearm has been aching for over a week. Probably tendonitis. I've been icing it. Pretty much hurts on pulling movements when flexing the bicep.

So i'll be coming up with a new split but keeping your exercises, reps, sets, routines, muscles worked intact.

Next week, no more lying leg curls. I can't isolate both hams properly when doing them so i'll be doing some standing single leg curls. I used a little more volume for my back since it's been 7 days since my last back workout and i wanted to try hitting it from different angles and with different grips. I focused more on contraction and form instead of just moving the weight which is why i didn't go as heavy.

Felt so strong after yesterday's refeed. Had to do shoulders instead of my scheduled back/hammy day because my leg day yesterday absolutely destroyed me. Lower back was really tight, legs are still completely rendered useless lol...so i wanted to stay strong for my deads so just moved the workout to Tuesday to give me some time to rest.

I was watching a Charles Glass hamstring training video and he was advocating light weight while really trying to curl the weight (not sure how to explain this but the video showed what he meant) and for higher reps. Holy ! My hams were fried. He was giving little tips like when doing lying leg curls to tighten the lower abs which takes alot of stress off the lower back and puts it all on the hams. He was even saying to have the quads come off the bench at the top of the movement and that really killed the hams. Anyway, real good muscle/mind.

I also had another question....can i do my leg/refeed every Saturday? I just love having the freedom to eat higher carbs and more cals on Saturday + being able to work out later gives me more energy for my leg workout. This means i will be hitting one other bodypart 2x a week but i believe that it will be a different bodypart every week.

Also my 4 day split is coming to an end. What did you have in mind next?

I also don't do any forced reps because of my back. That 305 was so smooth and deep. By the time i got to the lunges i was fried lol...had to drop weight to 45lbs dumbbells.

Hey Joe, have you ever used a stairmaster for HIIT? Thinking of trying it next week. Another question i had was for outdoor jogging. With the weather getting nicer i love running outdoors but my heartrate gets up there no matter how slowly i jog outdoors. I would say it is steady but more low/medium intensity. Running on pavement is just so much more taxing then a treadmill i find but i LOVE doing it. Let me know if this is OK for the steady state.

Also what are you planning if my weight comes in slightly under last weeks? That freaking cheat screwed me big time. Monday i was up to 165.4 !!!! I am right around last week's weigh in now though and this is my low carb/cardio day so getting down even more shouldnt be a problem. I am confident i can easily lose 1 lbs next week on what you have me doing now but i feel this week was all about catching up. Damnit!

The only lift that is going up in weight is my deadlift. Really had it going today. I actually didn't tire myself out in my warmup and cut my warmup reps from 5 to doing singles and doubles instead. Kept me nice and fresh. I also found that since the smith machine limited my range of motion it targeted more of my rhomboids while when i do pendlay bb rows they target more my lower lats. I guess it's more of how the bar is travelling. With the smith machine the bar was travelling just below my lower pecs. Anyway, i really felt them.

Not sure yet as i'm going to be at the in-laws for lunch but ill hit the macros. Last night i finally did "my thing" and this AM i woke up at 161 even. I knew that was the reason i was holding weight. Sorry if it sounds disgusting. I am just so regular usually so i know this type of stuff never usually interferes with weigh ins.

So Happy Easter to you and your family Joe. Have a great day!
