Through the haze of alcohol in Vegas, we managed to make it to Gold's a few days to train. The first day was shoulders and traps. Jake, Tim, Karen and I were hungover. I trained more along with Tim's style than my normal, but had pretty good days considering.

So I knew I put on some BF and lost some size due to the fucking endless injuries I have been dealing with since the first of the year, but I didn't realize just how bad it was until I started going through the Vegas pics.

After the workout today, I taped out and did BF. Needless to say, I am about 2 inches smaller in the arms, close to 2 smaller in the quads, an inch smaller in calves, close to 3 smaller around the chest, and much larger in the abdomen. I went from 317 at about 17.5 BF in January to 301 at 23.1 BF as of this afternoon. Great fun. I'm starting a diet and will be doing some cardio, and will continue to train at the same intensity, though I may drop alot of the RP for a while.

good thing i wasnt there for the hangovers. i have too much fun with ppl and their hangovers..lmao


awesome work, seth
 
Sorry to hear about the bench injury :(

Workouts are looking nice though!

On the smith machine front squats, how are you racking/unracking the bar? I tried it and I had a hell of a time getting the weight racked/unracked... I had to have my training partner do it for me, and I don't have one of those now.

Thanks, Aaron. I go from the inside facing out, so the bar is rolling forward to unrack, and back to rack...it's much easier. My partner is there though, in case I get to the point I can't roll it.

75lb front raises? Holy crap!

Strangely...the last two times I have done them (first in Vegas, now here) I have had very bad forearm cramps/muscle fatigue.
 
hey Seth, was wondering if you've seen better results for shrugs with holding 5 secs at the top and bottom?

I certainly feel it alot more during the set and am much more sore 24-48 hours later. I generally throw that in there once a month or so.
