I did a session of Yoga X and its not as hard for me as it used to be. Today I managed to pull this off:

As far as I'm concerned leg press machines are useless.
Did some regular squats, ATG and some box squats...the box ones got me.

There is nothing like a full night's rest.:wow2:

I do em both.

I like doing drop-sets on the leg press machine.



I never replace squats with them though

But the leg press might be the most misused machine in the gym. From cats doing 3-inch reps to other dudes rounding/compressing their lower back at the bottom :kobedamn:...shyt can be hard to watch.

I hit the gym this AM and did shoulders, chest, tricpes, cardio and abs but I damn near ruined my whole workout today


I went out with these chicks and the homies to the taqueria bar & grill and had quesadillas, beers & patron I gotta run tmorow

When I tighten my stomach I can see a rock hard set of abs that can grate the finest of cheeses or used to wash the dirtiest of laundry. When relaxed, the muffin top remains. Which is perplexing since I don't even eat muffins like that. I have a feeling there will be more cardio and salads in my future.

The one at my gym has plates not a machine....would be useful to do drop sets I suppose.

had my mandatory personal training session at the new gym outworked my trainer and made him use his stupid electric body fat test

he was 4.4% and i was 6%

i started out the day 10%

this piece of shyt made me do 30 consecutive reps of dumbbell press/fly

i still did it tho , and i made him do it with me @ 35lbs the look on his face when he realized he was huffing and i wasnt

i was like "more " he says

how the f*ck does these people get certified...

funny thing is, I've been looking at the NASM, PT study guide and it's fairly comprehensive. At least from a general biology + exercise science point of view.

30 reps huh, I'm assuming the weight was light...

I'd probably have respect for breh, if he stated that purpose of doing light weight + numerous reps, is geared at targeting smaller muscles, that are largely neglected, when people lift "heavier" with atrocious form...

But simply stating "I like the way it feels" is completely unorthodox...

This is why I don't like the fitness industry. And subscribes to this bs of being big as f*ck.

The point of fitness, is to be "fit". Now the game is all about taking as many stimulants as possible. From protein to steroids.

I want no parts of it...

i shyt you not thats exactly what he said

the worst part really was when i made him do that doofy body fat test with the hand grips and it said i lost 4% bodyfat the saddest part is that he trains novices and they go on with horrible routines with no progress doing dumb shyt like that
