| Illuminati | oh yeah i did buy some 25kg plates last nite and also i spent 105 (no pound sign on comp lol)on a HIP BELT so i can now do squats-and something other than single leg calf raises(single leg stuff is time consuming when i`m training my peeps) at last i can do donkey calf raises which hit gastroc AND soleus together! duuuuudes just think how much lovely protein powder/supps i could buy for that! oh yeah - usually when i hit my pb its time to do either some gear or whatever supps i have bought. (i bought a crap load of supps to help me bridge quitting dope-bloody things upset my stomach tho-as did quitting dope..so it was double bad) usually tho it takes longer in my TRAINING CYCLE to get to my pb and i`m sure i`m not goig to be on my absolute limit this time when i do- soooo get this for a crazy plan- i`m gonna weight a few weeks before i do start them- therefore imo i will maximise any gains i get from them- THIS APPPLIES TO GEAR ESPECIALLY! one of the dudes i train was given some dbol and ive made him wait until he`s working his absolute ass off before he takes it! he`s taken my advice and restrained himself for 3 weeks and now the time is right-IMO he was only given 100 5mg tabs and he`s gonna be doing 10mgs a day with weekends off-(my first time was 15mgs a day with weekends off and it worked really well) if it wasnt for me he`d have no clue about having nolva on standby(which ive got some of left over from my dark days lmao) he`s actually been training for 15 years which shocked me cos i`d have guessed 2-3 tops going by his physique. he has big bi`s and back-not good shoulders-no lower chest-reasonable thighs(not on par with mine tho-6ft and 15 stone-aged 48 - 15% BF with no abs showing. good natural calves tho-bastard! i used to work with him as an apprentice boy and bumped into him in town one day a few months back. i was extremely flattered that he wanted to train with me- i thought at first as simply a training partner- he`s now one of MY trainers.... he was the kinda quiet dude it was hard to have a conversation with and now he listens to me intently(not boasting now) now thats a buzz! ______________________ einsteins mind was the key to all things...to understand more than to know. www.englishmuscle.co.uk www.extremenutrition.co.uk |

| Illuminati | just wrote this up for someone: for deads(bearing in mind i`m doing 95%+ of my one rep max as theyre done rest pause(altho warm ups are wam ups..) i do -(this was for 200kgs) 10x55kg 5x95kg 4x115kg 3x135kg 2x155kg 1x175kg 1x190kg 1x195kg 1x197.5kg 20x200kg the point of the singles is to acclimatise your body too the weight youre using. if i just slapped on the last 50kg in one go- the "shock" of the weight increase would totally fcuk me up lol(scientific terms there) its all about getting the body to adapt.... now then usually i`d be adding 1kg a week for at least 5 workouts prior to a pb- this time all warmups have felt relatively light so while i can i`m adding 2.5kg a workout. maybe its cos i`m off dope now and have higher test levels(which has been suggested)i simply dont know,but i wont hesitate to drop weight increments to 1kg a time whenever necessary. imo most peeps biggest mistake is adding to much weight to the bar. yesterday i could have done 202(my pb)but i waited....i have good gaining momentum at the mo and adding weight to quickly would cause a plateau very quickly..... if all goes well i`m gonna stop at 210kg and drop back and cycle up again...if my ego will let me(past mistakes have meant i ve carried on and my back stops cycle and i set myself back even more-which is stupid of me) ______________________ einsteins mind was the key to all things...to understand more than to know. www.englishmuscle.co.uk www.extremenutrition.co.uk |
