Idaho BS thread in the PNW

so not unlike my MTZ's fucking hatting this tires.. im gonna burn em like i did the procomps and see how well they hold up. After i get new tires of course. i know the truck doesnt work as hard to brake them loose.

 

dig? nope, grip? nope, clean out? well only cuz i could spin the ever living shit out of them, they actually float ok, and tear apart on rocks check, found a new lug missing from that little bit of playing on that rock ledge.

 

Next tires will for sure be either the KM2's or the MTR's FTW.

 

Just got back from the gym, decided today to just up and go becuse I had plenty of time and haven't been in forever. Ran a mile, then lifted, targeting a bit of everything to re familarize myself with all the machines. Did biceps, tris, lats, quads abs, each with sets of 10 8 6 with increasing weight each new set. Then played on a treadmill and got super bored after a half mile lol, I have to have a chnge of scenery! Then hit all te machines for another round. I quite enjoyed it, and want to get to the gym as much as I can between work, work, and school. So monte, since you are the exercise expert, any good routines or tips you recommend?

Also saw a nice little surprise when I walked out to my truck, a 1st gen dub cab with a coil over lift up front parked right next to me, decided it was not a coincidence, so I put a Tw business card in the drivers door handle. Those cards are nifty!

 

Hmmm.. Well here is the add..

Well what are you wanting to do? Honestly crossfit is great for gaining strength while slimming up and getting tone. Plus it doesn't take super long..

I could give you a few work outs to try if ya want.

 

Eh, more looking for ways to maximize efficiency of work out time while using the lifting machines and bars and weights. Not really sure how into the crossfit thing I am, and I do realize that is what you primarily do.

 

I just concentrate parts of the body. But i also do kickboxing and jujitsu. I love jujitsu so much. Getting really good too

 

Do pyramid lifting then

For instance

12-10-8-6-8-10-12

12 at a lighter weight, 10 heavier, 8 heavier, 6 heaviest.

Then go back up too.

You can apply this to many things like squats, curls, presses really anything. Works great.

Pick 3 movements and do all at the same time. So all 12, the all 10..ect.

 

Is it best to stick to one body section for lifting? Like just upper, or just abs/mid, or just legs? Also from your pyramid work out you would encourage more reps of a lighter weight? I also know that form is more important that weight, so I'll back off the weight if I know I'm not doing them smoothly.

 

Monte think it would be better to go back to the gym and bulk again or try crossfit?

Im medium build but just kinda wanna slim and tone up but getting bigger would be nice too

 

Light enough weight is definitely key. I laugh when I see guys trying to do more weight than tge should be. People(guys) always think more weight will make me bigger faster. Well that is only true if you can actually lift that weight correctly. Typically when you go too heavy you start to.compensate with other body parts or even using gravity and it just slows your gains down in the long run.

 

I find doing combinations of supersets and pyramids works awesome for cutting/toning.

crossfit is kickass shit too though

 

yeah focusing on certain body parts is the best. So do a couple different workouts for your arms and bicep. Then so on for each body part section.

 

focusing on one section at a time, and then specific muscle groups in those sections, lets you get the most out of the workout. (IMHO)

Back/bicep
Tricep/chest
legs/abs
Shoulder/lats/traps

are what I split it into

reps depend on what you're trying to gain- size,strength or tone

 

You have to let your muscles rest to really let them heal and get stronger. Doing upper body one day and lower body another allows you to let your upper body rest while you do lower body and vice versa. That is the main advantage to focusing on different parts. You can break upper body into pulls and pushes as well.

 

Hey Kona, I found those malasadas. Got a box of 6 yesterday, basically 1 of each flavor and got a box of 8 today. 2 cinnamon and 6 custard.


They are basically scones filled with pudding.
