chuffed with myself - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

happy haggis · 15-04-2006, 01:07 AM

well im over the moon with myself after last nights performance in the gym.

i was doing back and after lat pull downs i headed onto the iso row hammer strength machine. i began on 60 kilos per side and then went to 100 kilos and got a good 9reps from that. my training partner is a big guy so we tend to have a bit of an interpersonal competition between us. if he lifts a weight i atleast try it.

after ide finished my reps with 100 kilo he then said he was going to give 120 kilo a try.

i had to do it too. i got 5 reps from it and 2 forced reps my last set was 15 reps with 80 kilos then dropped to 40 kilo on which i got 8 reps.

my back is sore tonight and i hate to think what it will be like tomorrow night.

not bad for a wee slip of a girl eh?

Flipping HECK Avril,

You said you were training like a BEAST! Wee slip of a lass, don't you have some height on you luv?

Hey I am inspired, I can do 40 kg no problem, once I can squish my breasts up against the bench again I will go for 60 on my heavy weeks, hey only 2 sets of 6.

It is great training with big guys isn't it!

i had been stuck in the rut of just training with the weights im comfy with. i decided one day fk it. im gonna go heavier. if i get 8 reps from a weight then its time to move it up a gear. and if i get only 2 reps out of a weight i will try it again the next time and i then i will get more reps maybe just 2 more but its a step forward. thats how ive been training for the past few months now.

i used to sit at thte leg press and go up to a max 7 plates aside. but then as i said above i wanted to really push myself and when my training partner told me i could do it i just did exactly that. now im up to 16 plates aside on leg press. thats 32x20kilo plates i get 4-6 reps out of that.

you gotta go for it. you cant afford to sit in that comfy place in the gym. you gotta push yourself so hard it hurts. no one else will do it for you babe.

ive gained size already in the past few months and hope to get a bit more on this year off competition.

go for gold and tell your self you CAN do it.

So true hun

I do rotate weeks though, so one heavy week, one pyramid set week, then one 'high volume week' low weight crazy reps so 4 sets of 25 or 10 sets of 10.

I like the heavy weeks best, or when I am 'off season' and do two months of mass and strength training.

I is just squishing the new breasts, I am going to be a bit nervous about them, for about a week, until I know they are fully healed
