Sorry guys for not keeping this updated, been away from a computer but will get back to it soon

tissue · 25-06-2004, 09:58 AM

simz for muscle size and that dont u think u should stay off bench press machines and that and do more free weights :P

simzy · 25-06-2004, 09:15 PM

Nice of you to point out tissue but may I point out that I had reasons to use machines that day as I have stated :P

simzy · 26-06-2004, 05:59 PM

FRIDAY 25th June 2004

TRAINING:

Deadlifts 180x5,3
140x8

Lat Pull Downs (not sure of weight, bars have numbers on) 10thbarx8,8,8

T-Bar Row Lever - Wider Grip 60x8,8
Closer Grip 60x8,8

DB Shrugs 35 x 8,8

Had a few weeks off from Deadlifts while cutting but thought I better have a few sets, you could tell I have been cutting as I struggled with 180, best is 185 for 6, my veins were popping out on a very awful looking 3rd rep so i dropped down for form.

Anonymous · 26-06-2004, 06:11 PM

thats it mate

quality not quantity

otherwise we.d be powerlifters

still good lifts on the deadlifts.

they say its inevitable,when u cut you lose strength

simzy · 26-06-2004, 06:14 PM
