182.9

great push! getting better at everything. I feel like ive made more gains past 2 weeks then i have in months! just refocusing on mind muscle, new split, and just in general energy!
also add in increased sleep! things could not be going better.
oh and being lean and insulin sensitive im sure is doing some of the heavy lifting!
feel like we are just in a really good groove atm.
Im 100% positive i got some lat growth finally! cant wait to check in saturday.
also im not sure, but my biceps/arms feel absolutely massive, and I feel like back is also coming along, last night lats were still twitching and mid back just felt SUPER beat.
those latbar rows were nasty.

despite all the little trials and tribulations, travel, illness, calf idiocy pip, things are happening!

pulled up a vid and really increased my rom on these, fckin yikes i think i yelled like a girl last reps

despite not going up a ton of weight, or increasing reps, maybe even going down a tad, I feel like this was an EXTREMELY effective push session.
everything sloww and controlled. not 1 single rep of ego lifting.
flat chest press really set the tone, that nautilus chest press machine is so good.

same foods!

okay well, THAT was a leg day i guess.
had to kinda make it up this time around.
182.9

didnt sleep well at all. not sure why just didnt hit last night. happens.
got up feeling a little dragging and headed to the gym to get shit done.
started with lat raises and was doing really well as i went to abductors noticed seated leg curls was down for maintenance. hmm okay
looked around, lying curls also maintenance, kneeling curls maintenance.

oh shit.jpeg.
every freaking ham machine was under maintenance. Replacing the pads.
damn.

well i love destroying my legs, but i wasnt entirely sure what to do. was googling for some alternatives, but
there really isnt a sub for any of them when ALL the machines are down.

I wasnt about to just walk away from all that volume so had to to do something, and I aint no bitch when it comes to legs.
went ahead and did belt squats, sldls, pendulum and some wh leg press.

absolutely fckin brutal! ha.

on to the numbers

lateral raises

33 x 13 up 5lbs
27.5 x 15 up 2
27.5 x 14 up 2
27.5 x 13 up 1

abductors
170 x 15 up 2
150 x 17 up 3

belt squat
405 x 12 up 40 lbs
405 x 11 up 40 lbs
405 x 10 up 40 lbs
way more comfortable here and total total failure. good weight for next time. disgusting hold on the bottom and exploding out.

sldls
90 x 13 same
90 x 12 same
90 x 12 up 1

think i can overload top set next week, was just being a little cautious per notes

pendulum squat

70 x 12 same
70 x 11 same
70 x 10 same

got my stance down perfectly, and nailed the bottom disgustingly so.

wh leg press
took it a little easy here, we had dropped this movement but didnt have much else to hit hams slightly with
405 x 13
405 x 12
405 x 2, wanted to do one more set, got 2 reps and yea was done.
due to my earlier injury, my flexibility on these is WAY up. so ended up being super super effective regardless, could feel my hams really yelling at me while i was just
letting the weight absolutely crush and stretch my hams, my knees basically going to my forehead.


leg press calves
5plates + 10lb + 5lbs up 5lbs
23
21
20
20


needless to say, i limped to the rest of the workout. hams on fire. Kinda felt like i had just gotten off a really long escalator lol. went well considering had to be a little creative.
love me some leg day!


rear delts
105 x 14 up 5lbs
105 x 12 up 5lbs
100 x12 same

prone incline db rows

25 x 10

optional back exercise
went single arm cable rows, been messing with form a bit decided good time to work on it

Curious about your belt squat numbers. Last time I did them I could do less #s than sldls, and my pendulums were similar to yours. Yet your #s look huge.

Someone stole the chain for the belt and nobody replaced it so I stopped doing them unfortunately. Idk if it's worth getting my own chain just for this one excerise.

im doing sldls with dumbells. i have a herniated disc, on smith sldls i had worked up to 255 i believe.

whats your question tho? lol

and yes do them! i fcking love them so much. get yourself a belt chain off temu or gymreapers.

No questions lmao just thinking out loud I enjoy your log

 

[dcdogz]

if it wasnt for herniated disc, id probably be up to 4 plates on sldls with the smith or higher.
i just have to be careful how much weight i load and I progress very slowly and carefully on them.
every rep has to be thoughtfully and carefully done.

You put a lot of work into getting that form right. I remember them causing you all sorts of issues when we started.

yea, i was terrified first time they got slated up.
i think i started with 15s on dbs.
stregthening the area around really helped out. all areas as well.
leg raises used to cause me pain, all gone.
my injured area feels very strong and solid now, seems like increasing my strength and muscle around the area has mostly shielded it.

im less scared of the weight and the randomness when it slips. like that one time picking up my backpack. very annoying strange injury at times.

With the most respect possible. 2 years ago you were 9% BF and 188lbs. Fast forward you are now 183lbs..... So 2 years of training, dieting, bulking, drugs, working your ass off in the gym to be 5lbs lighter.... Was this the plan? Seems like a lot of work for the scale to move backwards in comparison to most peoples goals.

With the most respect possible. 2 years ago you were 9% BF and 188lbs. Fast forward you are now 183lbs..... So 2 years of training, dieting, bulking, drugs, working your ass off all in the gym to be 5lbs lighter.... Was this the plan? Seems like a lot of work for the scale to move backwards in comparison to most peoples goals.

Based on the dexa it was wicked wrong. I was closer to probably 15 17.

Lots of progress pics posted as well.

I'm way way bigger now and leaner and it's not close.

So yes part of the plan!

Stomach at """ 9%"""
Versus now.
My physique has changed enough id say I'm almost unrecognizable from those first pics.

Given the same conditions I'd probably clock in at 4% lol

 

[Trippy802]

Way way bigger and down 5lbs..... idk man, math ain't mathing for me...

With that being said if you're happy with the results then that's all that matters man. Just wanted to pick your brain for a sec and see what's up. Take care homie.

Post in thread 'What are you training today? 2.0'

Nov 4, 2025

Not sure what your problem is with me, but that's not what I was implying at all. I'm actually laughing because my muscles are certainly not huge in the least. I'm not flexible so when I get a back and chest pump I look feel like fucked up turtle. lol

I was asking because a lot of guys super set those muscles and was curious. F me. I don't know what is going on with this board lately. Like I said, you won't hear from me again.

Yeah I was laughing too because I know they are not either. At least you’re man enough to admit that. I’ll give you a point for that one.

I’m gonna be...

and just in case anyone wondering about trippy, has a problem with coach for whatever reason, so I guess hes now messing with clients logs. kinda low but whatever!

in im my best shape yet!
you can call me small or whatever youd like! confident in my current physique and progress and will not be deterred!


check ins completed!

All i did was ask a question dude. This whole ketchup things way in the past... Everyone on this board knows what his coaching is and what happens with his clients.. It's not a secret. It's cool. Some guys want that. I was just asking if you were happy.

Never called you small, never implied it. In fact I was 10 lbs lighter than you 5 months ago lol.

 

[dcdogz]

Way way bigger and down 5lbs..... idk man, math ain't mathing for me...

"all i did"

clearly not the case!
if you think ive gotten "smaller" based on one metric and not the 100s of progress pictures posted its clear you have ulterior motives!

in the same context, when ronnie and jay are on stage after a cut I guess they got smaller too.

comparing weight (one metric), at completely random different points in time is retarded.

in may i might be 195lbs then what? im gonna be fatter too. literally does not make any sense what so ever.

 

[dcdogz]

so what point exactly were you trying to make here?

Nobody said you were smaller... I said you were 5lbs lighter which is true.... and that "way way bigger" and being down 5lbs didn't make sense to me based off your math homie.. You're the one that posted you were 9% not me.. Take care man. Good look. Stay well... Normal as the log states..

 

[Trippy802]

so what point exactly were you trying to make here?

That i never implied that you were small...... as you said.. bro WTF

 

[dcdogz]

That i never implied that you were small...... as you said.. bro WTF

???

literally does not make sense, but youre free to go back to your log! as im going to ignore you know since you literally have nothing of substance to add here!

 

[dcdogz]

problem solved!
im pretty retarded, but not that retarded!
its very clear what youre implying.

 

[Trippy802]

you can call me small or whatever youd like! confident in my current physique and progress and will not be deterred!

You came out of nowhere with this man.... I never said or implied you were small... you're trippen...

I usually go with the Mission brand ones. Might have to give these a run one week. Same macros. Get the Burrito size
