Odie's First Log

Getting pretty excited about the home gym. Im stuck at the dealership today while my truck is in the shop and I have been doing a bunch of online shopping. Just order my rubber mats, TX power bar and CAP olympic plate set. Now I just need to order the rack monday and a few more dumb bells and I'll be set.

Is the plan to start spending more time at home? I love working out at home. Just wish i had a partner that would workout with me but thats life.

Yes thats the plan. I will always still go to the gym but I want to take it to the next level. Theres a PL meet here in Sept and I can enter for just bench in my weight class if I want. I'm seriously thinking about it. I believe with me training at the house and at the gym and using resistant bands on bench at the house that I can break 500 on bench. Just one year ago I was only at 380x2. Anyway my interest lies in strength. I've got a lot to work on but I think if I go to a PL meet and meet a few people, that could be very beneficial to me. Anyway it would be awesome but work is gonna pick back up in August so I'll play it by ear but I'm thinking of going ahead next week and registering and paying my fee to enter.

I think considering your impressive 475 bench that you should persue powerlifting more.
A 500 bench is fairly rare among us humans , JUST DO IT !! :D

Ya let alone his weight class. I dont know anybody around where i live that can come close to pushing that kind of weight. I believe he could an would dominate his weight division.
 
Yep I'm gonna register tonight. Then there will be no turning back. I've talked to a few of yAll in private that live very close to me. It would be awesome if yAll could come. Now I wish I would of really packed weight on this cycle. Oh well I'm gonna cruise for the first time when I come off. I'm in the process of doing it legit though. Also I may cruise with a small dose of deca or something.

For my weight class I will defiantly come in the top 3 on bench I believe. Now I just gotta work on squat and deads. I talked to the rep of the place im getting my power rack from today. He said it would be weeks before I got it. They don't even build it to you order it and they make every single piece on it. I'm excited it's such high quality but fuck I want it next week. Lol

It would be great if some Texan Mesolites could support you at the meet .
Theres no drug testing at this meet Odie ?

elitefts.com

They are pricey but they will out live you. Go on to YouTube and type in elitefts power racks. They are top of the line. I looked at one EXCATLY like Im getting from elite on Rouge and their asking twice as much. It's something I will have the rest of my life so I can justify spending the dough

Fuck you Odie!! Here I am feeling good about 405 and you're pushing 475 with similar stats!!

Congrats man, that's freak-like superhuman strength..
Hell 405 ain't no light weight bro. Theirs alot more people that can't push that kind of weight than actually can:) I would much rather look like you an be able to only bench 200 then to look like steve erkal an bench 1000;)
 
No drug testing as far as I can tell. It's a huge event to. I would actually pick up any brothers that wanted to go. It's a few hours away though.
Depending on which direction away it is ;)

If your coming my way there's NO WAY I wouldn't go. Either way. Check ur msg's bro.

It's been a while but I used to participate in these meets. I could support you man. Depending on where the squat and dead lift are you could suprise alot of people
 
ARMS

My tendinitis has really been flaring up lately. Between wake boarding the other day and training biceps and triceps twice a week I have to be very careful with my movements.

Biceps

40x10
45x8
50x6

I tried to do Overhead Cable curls and stopped after one set. That really flared up my left bicep tendon.

Seated one arm Cable Concentration Curls ( went light with a nice slow squeeze)
50x12
60x10
70x9
80x6

Preacher Curls 7x10s ( went lighter then usual but damn it still sucked )

The weight may have been lighter then usual but I still left with my head held high. Veins poppin for days. Actually I told y'all the story of how I get squeamish when donating blood now because of a bad experience. Well seeing those veins bulge out while I'm curling almost makes me sick.
