Good grueling day back day! Warmed up normal deadlifts with no pause. Right hip groin feeling better but will just stick conventional. No need to rush. Then to working sets deads with pause 4-6” off floor then speedy up! Worked on form today really feeling the muscles work…speed and force…love deadlifts but the rest is a lot of work. Not afraid of work! Ok now gonna have protein shake. Then dinner tonight with. In-laws seafood!! Yum. Prob get Alaskan halibut.yum.
Happy lifting!

@RoidRageWife Sounds like you had a killer back workout! You're definitely putting in the work, and it's fantastic to see how thoughtfully you've structured your session.

@RoidRageWife alaskan halibut? is that a good eating fish? i thought that was more of a trash fish

Oh dear you’re mistaken my friend! Very good eating! Alaskan Halibut is like the highest caliber high end fish. Like Alaskan king salmon is called king for a reason. Halibut is the king of white meat fish. Alaskan seafood in general is sought after world wide it’s the highest quality! it’s the cold waters the fish live in. Chef Ramsy serves Alaskan Halibut in his reastaunts. Japanese are some of the biggest buyers. Mr @RoidRage69 was an Alaska commercial fisherman. We’re both from AK. This is why I’m a fish snob I grew up on Alaskan seafood. Flounder would be your shit fish.

 

[RoidRageWife]

@RoidRageWife You are always putting together some good training sessions. How long are your training sessions going? This seems like it would be about 45 minutes to an hour.

lol double that @2Thick! Takes a bit of time to warm up to working sets on deads or any primary lift. We stretch in between. Plus I’m old so it takes a bit longer for recovery. Both @RoidRage69 and I figure out our training. We’ve been doing it a long time and what we do works for us so it’s a matter of figuring out if you want to grow muscle bigger or stronger as to what kind of training you do or what exercises. Back is a huge muscle group also. Upper & lower back, traps, Lats. If we do cardio after that adds as well. We would have to really hustle to get through all that in hour. I just will not forgo my warm up. We do try to go shorter rest periods on the rest of our exercises when not on a strength training cycle, cuz we lighten up the weights we working with. And we only lift body parts once a week. So 3 days a week!

Thanks @RoySimpson We try to work all the diff muscles in each group since we only do body parts once a week. Always do a compound exercise! Sometimes we rotate exercises every-other week in order to hit muscles in a different way. Helps to give good balance. Like rear Delts; might do those on fly machine on chest day or face pulls or double pully cable pulls on crossover on Back or accessory day. If we don’t hit something we get it in somewhere. Or we do it diff the next week. Doesn’t get boring that way and more importantly the body seems to not get used to it as well.

Sorry guys. I was soo hungry I forgot to take pics plus was a nicer Restraunt chain Anthony’s! Always usually on The water. This one on puget sound down by where we drive onto the ferry boat to go visit our daughter and her fiancé. Bunch of kids coming in for dinner dressed up for prom night! Mr and I split a cup of clam chowder & Caesar salad. I Halibut dish with a rhubarb coulis sauce with rice pilaf asparagus a hard cider. Mr had pan fried oysters same sides bottle of root beer. I ate the whole damn thing even with the Semaglutide on board. And we split a strawberry rhubarb slump with ice cream! Rhubarb is this months seasonal featured fruit for deserts & drinks. Mmm yummy!!

@RoidRageWife sister make sense. cold water fish usually test better. different metabolism and diet

Today was hard. My shoulders were sore achey. Not a super exciting day. Did closegrip Bench lightened everything up. Did more reps. I think 155lbs for 10 reps on close grip might be a rep PR. Not looking for any PRs right now. Just some recovery without strength loss. Hit abs and cardio at end. Let’s have a great week everybody.

Today I was super tired. No energy. Everything felt like slow motion. Warm ups just regular reps, those were slow. Was a grind to get speed on the push up after pauses. Had a little rally! My lower back upper glutes were starting to cramp get tight. Had to reduce weight more than I’d like on RDL. But did 2 sets anyhow. Thinking might loosen up. Nope. We decided to start doing RDLs or straight leg deadlifts, on leg day cuz it hits hamstring and glutes. Might not be a great idea. Body not used to squatting then deadlifting. Went to do hack squats or leg presses. Hacks were open. Then all extensions and curls busy. The one abduction & adduction both busy. So we just said screw it! Need my 2 days off the gym now. Happy Lifting.

@RoidRageWife It's always fun to train at an older gym and go back. I did that myself for a couple months just for a change of pace.
