looking good bro, I have no idea how you can do all that

[buffness]

Are these workouts your posts with or without warmup sets? Just curious..

[mpresiv]

I do a series of scretching before my workouts. After that and one good warm up sets of whatever i'm good to go. lol. Before I do legs I gotta warm up my knees on the bike. Change of topic, since I have started doing incline first my flat bench has reallly sucked. My upper pecs have really fell behind so I started doing those first. Before I changed it I could do 315lbs for one rep. I probably couldnt do 275lbs right now..lol. I guess as long as I'm improving those weakpoints it doesnt matter....kinda embarrasing getting on the flat bench these days....lol

Steching before lifting...you nuts lol! Just be careful bro . I'm willing to be ya if you had more warm up sets, you'd be hitting more weight. Why, because your CNS would be 100% ready to go

[mpresiv]

I'll try that bro. thanks!!

This workout put me on my ass....lol. I had to throw in bi's cause I havent worked them in around a month. It sure does make for a long workout with the way my back work out is (back day is my most important day right now). I need to find a way to where I can work bi's on a different day than back so I dont have to stay in the gym for so damn long...

Today I went to the gym for my 7am workout and I walked straight out of the gym as soon as I got there....LOL. I cannot workout that early and there is no sense in me trying. I have got to revamp my entire workouts, even if it takes me working out after I get off work. The only decent workouts I get are on off days. Man this sucks!!

[Stout1]

what hours you working now?

[mpresiv]

what hours you working now?

I'm working the 11-7pm shift. About the time I get out of there it would be around 8pm before I'd hit the gym. That isnt too late but it would be nice to crash at home at this time. I love working out at this time so its probably best if I do it, I tried doing the early morning workouts but they just dont work for me.

Stout, what times do you workout??

I go to school from roughly 9-11 or 8-12 depending on the days I then workout from anywhere inbetween 12-2 then head to work and get there around 3.

Have you tried getting to bed earlier? Getting at the gym around 8 shouldn't be too bad, I know i do my AM cardio earlier than that. Just takes some getting used to.

Just thought I'd post something here. I've been busy and its hard to post as much as I want. I have been working out though. That is mainly due to me not posting as much. I get off work then go straight to teh gym, by the time I get home its late and I'm tired...lol. I'm working out now 5-6 days a week; a whole lot better than those 2-3 days I was doing due to my work schedule. The majority of my work shifts are morning so I'm back to working out in the evening which I love. If anything changes in my workouts Ill be sure to post
