I rolled Wednesday’s delts/arms/abs work into today’s workout, so I chose to do a contracted move, 2 sets, followed by a stretch set with Double-X Overload–that’s a partial rep in the stretch position after each full rep. Change and pain to gain
Steve: MMX Midrange R/P Monday (legs/chest/back +)
Decided on a midrange-only session today, with double rest/pause at the end. First set high-rep, of course, for slow-twitch exhaustion and growth stimulation…
Steve: MMX Iso Friday (legs/chest/back +)
I went back to a Pre-Ex attack–but with some rest/pause added to the iso move that was up first. One all-out set of midrange worked followed… [Read more…]
Steve: Extra Rest/Pause Wednesday (delts/arms/abs)
I added some extra rest/pause to every exercise–and went for stretch and contracted moves for most muscles, except shoulders, which I added a midrange, as you can see…

Steve: MMX Midrange-Stretch Monday (legs/chest/back)
A fairly empty gym is always motivating to me. I added a rest/pause to the second lower-rep set of the midrange move for each muscle…

Steve: MMX POF Friday (delts/arms/abs)
Drizzly Friday, but I still made it to the gym on time for MMX POF Friday. Odd to work delts/arms/abs on a Friday, but that’s the way workouts fell since I missed Monday. It was full 3-move POF with rest/pause on almost every exercise… [Read more…]
Steve: MMX Pre-Ex Wednesday (legs/chest/back +)
Confession time: I missed Monday’s workout. Why? I was still sore in my legs from three sets of Smith-machine squats on Friday. But what’s strange is that most of the soreness was in my inner thighs (adductors) to the point of being debilitating, not quads. Perhaps my stance was too wide. Back to the gym today feeling good… [Read more…]
Steve: 1-Move-3-Sets Friday (legs/chest/back)
I had planned to do my normal isolation exercise followed by a big midrange move–modified pre-exhaust. But when I walked into the gym, people were on both the leg extension and leg curl. Time to improvise. After a bit of hip flexor stretching, I saw the Smith machine open. I haven’t done Smith machine squats in forever. And thus started my 1-move-3-sets workout…
Steve: Full-POF Wednesday (delts/arms/abs)
Unusually cold outside this last day of November–which prompted me to train at home. Not a problem when it’s full-POF delts/arms/abs. All it takes is PowerBlock dumbbells and an adjustable bench for a killer workout–and with a bit of ingenuity, I can do full Positions of Flexion for each muscle group…
Steve: MMX Midrange + Stretch Monday (legs/chest/back)
I didn’t miss any workouts due to Thanksgiving. Luckily, my overeating didn’t occur to the point of getting me ill on Friday, so the gym was in the cards. Felt great today too–all carbed up…
