Friend is new the gym and his gym buddy's out of town so We did Chest and Tricep's lastnight for Volume. 4sets for 10 reps. 6 exercises for each. I never do 10Reps anymore so It was a challenge hitting Monday's numbers for 10 but It felt good. Had a really decent pump going too after lol

Favorite day for me is Back or Chest.

I guess i could join?

Stats:

First photo = Start 109kg (240lb)

Got down to 70kg from boxing and weight lifting. (still boxing today)

Pretty recent shot. After a 8 week bulk:



To the dude above, my favourite day is back day :P



Looking chubby as hell, as to be expected after a bulk.
Needing to hit shoulders harder, traps harder & get my bench/squad back up.

240kg deadlift, 125kg bench & 190kg squat.

Cutting now. Aiming to get down to 6% bodyfat for summer.

I like doing back as well but is have to say my favorite is legs.

[P78]

but i absolutely **** legs

which doesn't mean i skip leg day off course

[Oxer]

I fucking love doing back and shoulders...... anyone have a favourite group they train?

1st day of shortcut to shred done. Legit thought I was gonna die. I always wear a t-shirt then a long sleeve t-shirt over that and both shirts were soaking wet I was sweating so much. Forgot how intense this program is. Really tests your will do drive through pain and exhaustion to keep going.

[benz88]

Just read into that shortcut to shred. Seems neat, I'd like to try the Training part of it, Maybe I'll try it out for this week and see how it goes. Ive already got my own way for nutrition/diet down.

[andybob]

I've been slacking big time the past couple months. Hovering around 200 lbs and my clothes are getting tight so it's time to buckle down and get back into it. Startin Shortcut to Shred tomorrow (2nd time doing this program) to kick things off then I'll go from there. At the end of May I was about 186 and I want to get back down under that weight.

[benz88]

Fuckin still stuck at 200 and I cut back more on Calories. Its as if My body doesn't want me to drop below 200lbs

[benz88]

That will be me in a couple weeks hopefully. Just eat clean.

[Oxer]

lol, I just keep eating.... never stop.

[benz88]

Thinking Sunday's going to be a Liquid day, Protein shakes only since Im not lifting. Hopefully a 500cal intake that day drops weight to where I want to be.

[Oxer]

my routien atm is

day one - back - tri's

for back usually a mix of lat pulldowns (various grips), hyper extensions, seated rows (various grips/machines) Bent over db rows, tbar rows - for tri's, rope extension, bar extension (one and two handed), skull crushers (db or bb)

day two - chest and bi's

for chest, db press (standard, incline, decline) alternated with bb, cable flys, db flys/machine flys, sometimes dips, for bi's, preacher curl (db or bb), standing bb curls (various widths), seated curls (hammer or standard curls)

day three - legs and shoulders

for legs, extensions, ham curls, leg press, calf raises (standing or seated)... sometimes I mught use the squat machine, but with my back the way it is, cant really. Deadlifts are out of the question. for shoulders, seated press (db or machine), pull ups, military press behind head, individual side raises, shrugs (individual or dual)


I usually get 5 days a week in, the cycle just repeasts... every now and then I throw in random excersices, and once a month I change the routien up.

[P78]

[benz88]
