Felt great as I hit it at 6:20 a.m. in a fairly empty gym. Most of the cardio machines were occupied, but the weight area was vacant. Lucky me since I know the secret–resistance training is king. Quick Compound Aftershock attack today…
Jonathan: Delts, Midback, Biceps, Forearms (ideal feel)
This morning’s workout produced the ideal feel for every muscle group. Delts felt incredibly good. Back and arms felt great, too, though there was a slight lower-back spasm during bent-over laterals. Nothing bad seemed to come of it, but it definitely woke me up… [Read more…]
Jonathan: Chest, Lats, Tris, Abs (weekend warrior)
Work obligations tied up my Friday morning more than expected, but no worries, as that gave some more recovery time for the soreness to subside. Full-tilt boogie for a weekend warrior workout this morning, however, and there’s nothing quite like a cold, Saturday morning workout when you know you’re going to be working under a car for 10 hours once you’re done. LOL… [Read more…]
Steve: MMX Compound Aftershock (iso legs, delts, arms, abs)
It’s only January, but I feel as if my motivation is starting to come back with a vengeance. I had one of the best workouts in a long while today, and I even added a set for both chest and back at the end. Unusual to have so much energy as I left the gym…
Jonathan: Delts, Midback, Arms (round two of the new)
Already into round two of the new routine, and I’m loving it so far. It’s nice to have a new split, and adding in several X-Hybrid techniques makes it even more exciting – and motivating… [Read more…]
Jonathan: Chest, Lats, Triceps, Abs
Oh, there will be some chest and triceps soreness tomorrow. Lats and abs are likely to feel a bit worked, too, but there was a bit more than usual that went into chest and tris… [Read more…]
Jonathan: Chest, Back, Abs (basics blast)
It was a great basics blast this morning for chest and back. Great workout, but a couple of twinges in my back reminded me that I need to get up from my desk and move around a bit more during the day. Nothing worse than feeling an injury coming on, especially when the cause is too much sitting at your desk… [Read more…]
Steve: Legs, Chest, Back, Abs (2-set Compound Aftershock)
Using the Size Surge Phase 1 split makes workouts look easy on paper. But the supersets using a high-rep stretch move with a lower-rep, fairly heavy compound exercise are rough–and sometimes nauseating. High reps are not easy, especially on painful stretch moves. Here’s how it went today…
Jonathan: Chest, Back, Abs (Happy New Year)
Happy New Year! Last training day of 2015 was on New Year’s Eve, and plans were to take some time off before hitting it hard tomorrow. Well, I got impatient, and 2016 is already here, so there’s no time like the present. Two days off in a row is plenty for me, and I never feel good when it rolls into a third day off, so Sunday workout it is… [Read more…]
Jonathan: Chest, Back, Abs (Pectacular Pump)
Last chest and back workout of the year, and it resulted in a pectacular pump. LOL! A great view of the several inches of snow outside helped with the Rocky-in-Russia training intensity, although I kept it all indoors… [Read more…]
