Test-Daddy is BACK!

[Test-Daddy]

So I took a break from logging and really from lifting heavy. I decided I was too big…wanted to diet down and honestly going from never seeing an Atlas stone to qualifying for Nationals in 10 months I was burned out. I ate too little....... partied too much and trained bi’s for the first time in years. I am now 1 year into strongman and 16 months back in the gym.

I am back now…..the fire is burning hot and I feel great.

I weigh 276(down from 312) Without doing a bit of cardio my conditioning is better at 276 than 312 doing everything under the sun.

My next challenge is the powerlifting meet at Europa on 7-24. That’s my main focus for the time being. After that I may do a SM show in August, will do one in Sept and then nationals in November. I intend to compete at 265.

6-12 First event day in 2 months

My goal here was not to set the world on fire and as it turns out I was barely able to light a candle

Thomas Inch DB push press 172lbs
12 tries 1 press

Car deadlift Still can't get comfy with this event. We used a small sedan.
After many attempts I got one rep then followed up with a double.

Stones
240x2
275x2
300x2
330x1

as of 6-12 my max stone is 330 which is piss poor because I just missed 405 last time I trained stones heavy. Its worth noting that this 330 is 22" which makes the typical 20" 330 look like a softball. Stones will come back to me. I will load a 400 in 2010!

Deadlift Monday 6-14

135x10x2
225x5
315x5
405x1x10
495x1
600x2 fully reset each rep I usually touch and go.

I wanted 600 for a triple I got the third to my knees and started to hitch it...but decided to scrap that idea..... it seemed silly to risk injury this early in a heavy training cycle. For those wondering I do a bunch of singles with 405 to get warm and dial in my form.

[Test-Daddy]

6-16 Bench
135x10
225x5
315x5
365x5 added spotter and wrist wraps
405x3 Its a one rep PR at this weight.

DB flies

80x10x3

This was my third bench session of 2010. It makes sense I did not lose much while being a gay poser because I never trained it to begin with. I am excited to see what consistent training will do here.

[P Bo]

LMFAO@gay poser. Bwahahahaha.

Count me in for this ride especially since our meet 7/24 is part of the destination.

[Test-Daddy]

Hahaha The weekend of July 24th is going to be Epic.

[porkchop]

Thanks man....the sick thing is I am pissed about missing the lift......455 felt light..... 475 was mine.

Thanks Ulter I may do a rehab log. The hardest part is I feel like I am on the disabled list of life. I need to log,train what I can, and keep some diet together. Otherwise is fat guy time again.

Bullshit!

You WILL heal.
You WILL be back.
You will NOT get fat.

Now, get to it son.

Amen brother. I figure it won't be long a all until I can squat and not long after that for deads. In the mean time the plan is to drop another 20. I need goals!

[porkchop]

Exactly!

A friend down here tore his bad.. he's squattin and pulling again.

[Test-Daddy]

Exactly!

A friend down here tore his bad.. he's squattin and pulling again.

How long did it take him?

[Ulter]

GH and Anavar.

[GTLifter]

That sucks man but I doubt you'll be on the injured list for life.


Amen brother. I figure it won't be long a all until I can squat and not long after that for deads. In the mean time the plan is to drop another 20. I need goals!

Do you have access to a safety squat bar or a cambered bar? If so you'll be fine. If not I would consider buying one.

[PeteM]

Good idea, and well said. Keep focused.

[booey]

Sorry to hear that bro. Focus on diet, cardio and rehab and you'll be back before you know it!

[Test-Daddy]

GH and Anavar.

How much GH do you think is needed for this type of thing?


That sucks man but I doubt you'll be on the injured list for life.

No I said "of life" like I am on the injured reserve list for a football team of something. I do have access to an SSB. :)


Good idea, and well said. Keep focused. Thanks Pete


Sorry to hear that bro. Focus on diet, cardio and rehab and you'll be back before you know it!

Thats it man....been sulking a bit.....time to start eating right

[GTLifter]

ahh...gotcha...

I'm in the same boat as you right now and can't squat with a straight bar or pull but the SSB and cambered bar are allowing me to train my squat an pull hard. You'll be fine since that's over 2/3s of your total anyway. lol

[dirty~d~]

Sorry to read about the tear TD. As PC said, you WILL heal. Work on the goals within your means and stay focused. ;)

[roadwarrior]

IN late but IN none the less.

So sorry on the pec tear. Take care and heal right.
