The Official Gym & Fitness Thread

Yessir. What part of town your family in? I'm up in North Las Vegas. A community called Aliante. Hit me up if you wanna get your "pump" when your on the way through.

Funny thing is, I might come through Denver to drop off my dogs to my brother.

 

5x5 on squats, deads, and calves today.... I'm beat

 

Sweet deal. What weight?

 

Rice cakes don't have the carb content I would like...why and when do you eat them?

 

Was doing iso machines, 8 plates on the squat, 6 on the dead, 3 on the calves.

 

Do you guys have any good muscle building meals that you would like to share?

Do you have any good reading for hypertrophy?

And does that mean you workout the same body part more than once a week?

 

Scivation tri-phase. Ive done it a few times with amazing results.

 

Like articles to read? Not at the moment.

You may workout a body part more then once a week but that's ok. Things like abs, push ups, pull ups etc can be done all the time, body weight squats can be done all the time.

On a 5x5 plan, those workout the 3 major groups 3 times a week, kind of a Monday, Wednesday, Friday deal. Which is not bad as you have close to 48 hours to recover that muscle group.

On the 10x10 plan I am on, my days go something like:

Monday: Chest/Arms
Tuesday: Back/Shoulders
Wednesday: Partial Legs
Thursday: Rest
Friday: The other half of legs
Sat/Sun: Cardio or Crossfit.

 

Looks like some weaksauce meat head..


Good fucking job though dude. That's good shit.

 

And how many exercises per body part for 5x5 and 10x10?

 

5x5 is usually 1-2. Typical 10x10 is usually 1, but I've ramped it up to between 2-4, max 4, keeping the rest times between 10-30 seconds.

Standard 10x10 and 5x5 work off the major compound lifts, squats, deads, rows, presses pull ups, push ups etc. My 10x10 is working off 1 compound lift and 2-3 isolation moves.

 

I know what it is!
