What tricep workout has worked best for you?
for a heavy lift it would be rear extentions, for tone it is weighted dips on two benches, and for light weight it is reverse grip pulldowns unilateral..
well i just recently got out of the Marine Corps. and am now finding it difficult to find the time to get to the gym...with the wife and kids and all it really is pulling me in all different directions..i WILL get back on my schedule but i first need to get the things straightend out in my...
For this week I am going to go heavy. To try to put on some solid mass. I will, agian, start off with a semi-light warm-up set and have that followed by 3 hard sets. I am going for 8 to 6 reps at heavy weight. I'm going to start at my lightest weight and do 8 reps and continue up in weight...
Glad to hear all's well on the gym and work front. TOLD YA. HA...Yea eye getting better week by week and not too much of a bother on the job. Biggest problem are the overhead fluorescent lights. Boss talking about changing them to 21st century standard. HA. Andre
What do U mean OLD MAN? Least I'm not whining about my new job after only 2 months and feeling tired after 4 years of the easy life with the Marines. HA. Don't blame it on wife and kids either. HA. Don't worry about the weight lose, you'll be in the gym and back in shape in no time. I'm back at work after 2 months off with the eye problems and also just moved to a bigger apartment so things looking up here. Andre
What up fat boy. Lifting is good as always. I am still at about 225 right now. Trying to get to 240ish by mid July. Then, hopefully a cut phase. We'll see how it goes. How goes the lifting for you?
Sorry to hear about your loss of size.. Im sure you will get it back. Im still struggling to get a groove, but progress is being made. Thanks for checkin in.. Take care.
hope there's a big farewell party planned. 4 years worth at least one. I KNOW,, back I can handle but that eye thing totally out of the blue freaked me out. Seeing specialist again this Wednesday to see if all ok to return to work or he needs to do extra work on it... Andre
Hey KID..I'm doing OK...Been the roughest last 10 days of my life because of eye problems and emergency laser operation to save the left one but things seem to be going OK now. 2 weeks off work WITH PAY of course. Great Union and Medical plan. HA...So what's going on this weekend? Almost time for you for that big career change. All will go well you'll see......Andre
HEY thanks for saying hi. Hope you have a great weekend and I'm out of town to see my mom for a few days. Glad to see you're all set physically and mentally for the BIG change and I'm sure the whole regimented background will serve you well in new job. Andre
Hi there....Things going good here and if weather can actually warm up to above ZERO for a few days it'll put a smile on many faces. Nice relaxing weekend so far. Out for drinks and dinner with friends tomorrow and a dinner on Monday but that's about it. Lots of walking in the very sunny but semi freezing cold. Good for me and my back. Got the Easter Eggs, chocolate bunnies and Ham bought? HA lol. Not too much for you though. HA. Have a great restful weekend. Andre
yeah i am good 4 great workouts this week yesterday got 345 for 5-6 on squat w/ no puss pad, deads till failure of 315. today was arms, i have consumed a shit load of food in 2 hours.
Let's see. . .Getting Out must man the standard-issue goatee is in your near future ;)
Always traveling in this job! Sacramento in a week, followed by a few days in Bangor, then back home until my next trip. Looks like transferring to Hawaii in a year, but that's not 100% yet. . .
Good luck in your future career!
