WannaBe’s Last Year Of “DYEL?”

I mean, who even needs arms.

I can put on 20 pounds and my arms will basically not change.

I’ve always been very active (dirt bikes,mountain bikes, hiking, etc) and I’ve always worked a manual labor type job, and I’ve always been over weight. Craziest thing :joy:

your rows are always nuts

Mostly shit chest and shoulder workout, per usual lol. I think all my good days are back and arm days.

Positives from today: the stuff labeled uni or iso has weight mover per arm, not total, so today’s seated OHP top set was 115lbs per arm, which, is pretty cool I think. Obviously being a plate loaded machine it’s a lot easier than free weights, but still. Cool.

Cons: everything else was either painful or weak :joy:

Tomorrow is check in day with the coach. Hoping he ups calories because I feel I should be making more progress than I have, which is super depressing.

How is the weight looking?

Sitting around 211 upon waking.

Great back and bi workout today.
Used straps for the first time on the chest supported row and it’s a game changer for sure!! I was so aggressive with the 300 that I had to stop because a plate fell off (and got a guys toe beside me :face_with_hand_over_mouth:)

What a fucking waste of a day in the gym. Apparently my kryptonite is pressing.

Had to stay late at work yesterday so skipped the gym, got decent sleep, had meetings most of the day so not wore out from work. Hit the gym excited to see those PR’s from being fresh and fed. Ha.

Also skipped abs. Fuck those too

I’ve found that once I get them they come back until the back is fully recovered. They are a bitch though. I find laying on a bench for about 10 minutes helps.

I was curious what I could do to fix it. I tried all kinds of weird fetal positions lol

Sorry if I’ve missed the change but are you still working with a coach? How’s that going?

Yep. He tells me what to eat and what to do in the gym. It’s going… I thought there would be more progress than there has been, but it is what it is. Turns out maybe I wasn’t doing it all wrong by myself after all lol
