Mo how many sets a day are you doing?? talk to me hammer.

Re: Mo how many sets a day are you doing?? talk to me hammer.

One day in the outfield at college baseball practice, the guy I was shagging flies with tells me, "I did 200 push ups before practice". I looked him dead in the eye and said "So what? I did 10 bong hits."

Re: Mo how many sets a day are you doing?? talk to me hammer.

sets of what? depends on the exercise...here is what i try to do...i really spend more time in the gym talking than anything else but at least i get in there 4-5 times a week.

chest day i'll start on the bench. i'll warm up with 135, then i'll do a 2nd warm up at 245, then ill do 315 and then lately ive been doing 365 for 1-2 depending on the day, but that last 'set' is fairly useless. then i do two sets where i have 315 and i do it a few times, take off 1 plate on each side, and rep out with 225. then i go to incline.
on the incline i'll do the 135, then 225, then i'll see how many times i can get 300....normally 4. then i'll do that one more time and i go back down for a set of 10-12 reps. from there i either do cables or a decline but i dont really like either. i normally end with incline flies. 4-5 sets there and im done. i used to love dumbells but i can do 120s 8-9 times on the inclide which is the biggest we've got and thats not really gonna make me stronger. same with flat bench, just kinda pointless with the dumbells which sucks because i want to switch things up sometimes.

with back i do lat pull downs with a wide grip, then the close grip, and then i'll do some rows. normally 5 sets of each and sometimes on back day i'll do some bicepts but i really never lift arms.

then the next day i'll do shoulders. i start with dumbell shoulder press. i'll warm up with 45s, then go to 65s, then 80s, and my heavy set i'll do 95s about 7 times. we dont have 100s anymore...for some reason, and i cant jump to 105s. then i'll go to a military press on the smith machine and do a few sets but sometimes (last night) it gives my shoulder some problems and i stop. after that i try to superset some upright rows with shrugs but i dont always do it that way.

then my least favorite day which is legs...and i normally find a reason to skip that day.


i need a better program but i just kinda keep doing the same thing and im not really movin up much. part is my diet, part is stuck in the same routine, part is drinking too much, and part is just not workin hard enough when im in there.

THE SMITH MACHINE IS VERY DIFFICULT TO ADJUST TO I HAVE A BAD SHOULDER NOW AND i CAN'T DO THEM CORRECT, i would love to able to use that thing with real weight as it is safer and feels great to me... but my shoulder wonT allow proper range of motion.

ARE YOU TAKING ANYTHING?

WHAT THE HELL... YOU NEVER DO ARMS?

CLOSE GRIPS ARE GREAT FOR TRICEPS BUT KILL THE WRISTS...I USE TO DO THE VERY HEAVY BUT MY WRISTS JUST CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE...I PLAYED SOCCER IN COLLEGE SO ALWAYS HAD GREAT CALVES, NOW DAYS I DON'T PLAY AND MY CALVES SUCK.

I WILL POST MORE I AM IN BETWEEEN SETS HERE...I NEED TO GET BACK ...I TOOK A MONTH OFF AND ALL I DO IS EAT SINCE I WORK FROM HOME.

Is there anything greater than shagging fly balls, I am dead serious, not sure it got any better than that?

maybe BP :thumbsup
 
Re: Mo how many sets a day are you doing?? talk to me hammer.

Nothing like diving around the outfield on a sunny summer day. Btw, I lied that day, had probably only done 3 or 4. But I figured he was bullshitting about the push ups.

well when you do back you work your bicepts and on chest day i work my tricepts and i really dont enjoy doing curls and shit much anyway.

i played soccer in college and i dont have shit for legs anymore. that was year ago.

i need to get some cardio, abs, and more arm work into my routine, but i normally get up to the gym around 9:30...i talk for a ton of the time im there, and it closes at 11. i need to get more discipline there...like with most everything else i do.

i cannot believe you hate curls, very strange.


curls get so boring. i would warm up with 35, then go to 50s, then do 65s 4 times or so and go back down. then do then seated and then do them on the incline. i cant really do curls with the straight bar because it fucks with my wrists.

squats i fucking hate. they're great, but i dont do'em.

baseball was my best sport. i wish i had stuck with it but i had to choose once soccer was truly year round and baseball was getting closer. i went with soccer because i had a soccer game that weekend and that was it. baseball was my best sport.

Near JH...I would rather not give that away because there are many articles about the team and my name is in them ...last night it was home movie night and I didn't even realize I gave out that info...on the net you can never be too sure I guess...although there's nothing to hide anyway.

Rt1 eh? I guess you were farther down towards DC or up by Elkridge? theres a few biker dive bars up in Elkridge...you heard Wild Bill hagy died right, i think we talked about that...pretty sure it was you...getting old.

thats my pic from yesterday. i need to work on the arms, abs, and some legs shit. its harder to do legs because not many girls care about legs and i care about girls.

:+excited-



as far as when you asked about taking anything...i have a protein shake 2-3 times a week. either whey or a muscle milk. muscle milk is delicious, but it has a lot of fat. i eat enough fat when i eat pizza, wings and sammiches all day

I loved Bowie..............got a vial of dirt when they closed in 85. i walked hots on Blueberry Hill in the 70's. I went by there last year, tons of big mansions there now. A side note, bowie and potomac are built identical. So when you go to the other school, you know exactly where you're going. Good golf around there too, Enterprise, Bowie , and a few I can't remember their names. I had a girlfriend in Bowie too, very hot. I remember listening to the Greaseman tell a Sgt Slaughter bit about Nam, the day I was shipping out for korea in 84. Lots of memories between laurel and bowie. Could write a book about the starting gate and the deuce................LOL.
