A week between two holidays that include spiked eggnog had me training only twice this week. Today was full body with delts and arms–pre-exhaustion for most bodyparts…

Steve: MMX Midrange Monday (legs/chest/back +)
It’s the day after Christmas and all through the gym there were new creatures lifting and dropping dumbbells and slamming weights like complete assholes. Lol. People are off work today and decided to work out early–interfering with mine. No problem. I decided on a midrange move for each major muscle group–high-rep set, rest 30 seconds, add weight lower-rep set, rest 10 seconds, rep out one more time… [Read more…]
Jonathan: Boxing Day Blowout (back, shoulders, biceps, abs)
It was Boxing Day blowout in the gym. Still feeling like I’m fighting something off, as I was a bit slow to start again, but felt great as the workout went on. I’ll have to watch it, though. My son has finally shaken his cold off, but now my wife seems to be next in line. Is it just a matter of time, or can I fight the fight…

Jonathan: Christmas Eve Gym Adventures (legs, chest, triceps)
Woke up at my normal time this morning (I’m old now, that’s just what happens), but started off in slow motion for my Christmas Eve gym adventures. Still fighting off a slight cold or something, but it was all good once I got through the first few minutes…

Steve: MMX Contracted-Stretch (legs/chest/back/delts/arms/abs)
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
Jonathan: Triple-Threat Thursday Workout
I just had my first-ever triple-threat Thursday workout. Thanks to my son coughing in my face over the past couple days, I seem to be fighting off a cold. That meant my body completely ignored my alarm clock and I overslept, so time was limited. At least for the morning of what turned out to be three workouts in one day…

Jonathan: Terrific Tuesday Workout (legs, chest, triceps)
Despite a slightly slow start, it was a terrific Tuesday workout! Had a few early-morning things to take care of before heading into the below-ground muscle dungeon, but the initial sets of squats got the blood flowing in a hurry, and strength continues to go up a bit at every workout…

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…
Jonathan: Sunday Winter Workout (back, shoulders, biceps, abs)
I love a good winter workout, and some of my best training has been in the cold winter months. That being said, I was glad I didn’t have to leave the house to get to the gym today. It was -10° outside, so throwing on some sweats and heading the to the basement was a welcome treat compared to other options. Great one today, and even better that it’s a Sunday morning with a day of recovery to look forward to…

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…]
