Underhand Barbell row 6 x 4 85, 95, 105, 115 (3 reps), 115 (2 reps), 120 (Failed to do 1 rep)
Weighted Dips 6 x 4 20 lbs, 25 lbs, 30 lbs, 35 lbs, 40 lbs, 45 lbs (3 reps)

Also gonna cut out the isolations from my upper body workouts since my left elbow has been feeling funny this week. Plus those lifts aren't worth the possible injury.

This cut shyt is a MFing roller coaster brehs

Them feels when you stall out one week, and lose 4lbs the next

Only 2lbs to go Then instead of making small gains losing 2lbs a week, I can make huge gains hopefully gaining like .25-.5lb/week. This cut has been but next year I complete my final form

420 calories on the treadmill. Have to make up for my heavy slacking. 1st set of calisthenics almost killed me but still completed them all.

Another 340 down.

Add another 392.

392 more.

393. This weather is killing me. I'm sweating my ass off every run.

The treadmill has a display however it is really an estimate. Especially if the treadmill doesn't ask for your weight before you begin.

This personal trainer at the LA fitness I go to is eating good fam... I swear he never trains out of shape women.. Only exclusive bad IG thots.

I'm going to go back to intermittent fasting. I fasted from food yesterday and jogged two miles on the treadmill yesterday.

I'm trying to drop flab weight.

I always wonder about that, if they are already in shape, why would they need a trainer?

Sled/Prowlers and Tire Flips tomorrow

Not just tire flips, burpee tire flips........

The sled, tire and ropes was all one big superset.

I'm cooked

Lat pulldowns are not an isolation movement.

Maybe not isolation but my point still stands. The general consensus amongst lifters is that pull up/chins are more effective for overall back development while lat pull downs are the easy choice for beginners who lack the strength to do chins.

If any of you all are having knee joint pains or soreness, try instaflex

When I would go up stairs my left knee was sore, I sit in the shower at night before bed to relax and trying to get back my knee was stiff and sore. This stuff has cleared that right up

How long did you take it before you saw results? Where did you buy it?

For me, seriously, I was seeing reduced soreness after 3 days. I've been taking it for going on almost 2 weeks; no issues at all. I just got back from a 3 hour basketball session and I'm feeling good.

I got them at vitamin shoppe. You can also get them at gnc. Think they were cheaper @ Vitamin shoppe though

I can't tell if this is based on building muscle from going to the gym on Tuesday (back/shoulders), Wednesday(legs), and today(arms), or the fat from the two junior bacon cheeseburgers, baked potato, spicy nuggets from Wendy's and honey Chipotle chicken crispers, Texas cheese fries, and blue long island i had from chili's. But my scale isn't supposed to look like that.

Agenda for tomorrow:
Wake up
Eat breakfast
Go to the gym and spend atleast a half hour on every single different cardio machine.
Pass out on the floor mat from exhaustion.
Go home
Eat
Fall asleep
Repeat on Sunday if scale still incorrect or belly still too big.
