Glorious late night back and bicep workout! My biceps do not have the genetics for serious size and definition. That’s why put more work into my biceps than any other muscle group. I think I’ve reached my genetic potential for size so sadly the only thing that could happen at this point is my biceps getting stronger and more vascular. My workout consisted of 5 sets of standing dumbbell bicep curls with 75lb dumbbells for 2-3 reps per set. For back I did 5 sets of holding a modified front lever till muscular failure. Ultimate goal for my pulling strength is to hold a full front lever for 10 seconds and to be able to do a one armed chin up. Got a long way to go! Thank you to all my fans for keeping me motivated. I love you all! ❤️ My training and your support keeps me on the straight and narrow.

Bench press plateaus! Don’t you hate them? Especially when adding 10lbs to a 1RM seems to take forever. One obstacle I’m encountering is trying to get stronger in the bench and military press at the same time and getting the amount of required volume (2 workouts per week) during the week for each exercise. My front deltoids are so sore after a shoulder press workout that sometimes I have to wait 3 days before I can train the bench and then I cannot get the required volume during the week. I’m trying a new approach which will mitigate soreness in the front delts allowing me to hit each exercise twice per week. I’ve modified my bench press technique with a wider grip, incorporating rest pause, short isometric holds and limiting the range of motion below the sticking point. This way my pecs have to do most of the work and it works like a charm! I’ve never gotten a chest pump this big after a bench workout. I’m doing 5 work sets in this workout ramping the weight up to a 5RM on the third set then finishing with a burn out set at 12 RM. Excited to see what comes of this in 4 weeks!

Bad lifting and hair days. We all have them. It’s part of life. But it’s what we do about these through taking action that will make a difference in the long term. These last couple of weeks I’ve had zero motivation to exercise and push hard. It’s painful and discouraging when you see PRs you’ve worked so hard for go down the toilet. However I took action, got my ass in the squat rack and did at least 2 good sets where I pushed %100. Taking such actions consistently, especially if it’s the last thing I want to be doing, will create momentum and make the next workout more productive and enjoyable. Gains in any endeavour can only be made when there is momentum created by consistently taking positive actions no matter how great the resistance to do so.

Had to take a couple of weeks off from heavy lifting due to the recent injury I sustained but I’m bouncing back quicker than ever. Thankfully I’ve maintained a lot of my strength. My hands do still hurt but the pain is nothing compared to what it was during the first week. I’ve had numerous setbacks in my training due to a lifetime of struggle with trauma, addiction and mental health and the philosophy I’m basically forced to live by is from one of my favourite movies “Rocky” and it goes “it ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward”. And the faster you get back up after a setback the more losses you will mitigate. I’ve had to learn that the hard way because there have been times where I flushed months of hard training down the toilet because I couldn’t find the strength to get back up quick enough and I stopped believing in myself but not this time! So never stop believing in yourself and whatever it is you are trying to accomplish because life will lose it’s meaning and you will drift aimlessly from day to day. Thank you to all the people who reached out and supported me during this crisis. ❤️

One thing I see a lot of novice-intermediate guys doing at the gym is direct shoulder and arm training: i.e., bicep curls, tricep extensions, lat and front raises. My advice is if you can’t hit some decent numbers on your compounds you have no business doing direct arm training, especially as far as triceps are concerned. I’ve gone years building mass and strength using compounds alone. So just move a decent amount weight, do the volume and you will get size and definition. Save the isolation stuff when you’re at an advanced level, moving serious weight and are chasing aesthetic. 90% of my training still consists of compound exercises and my arms and shoulders are strong and aesthetically pleasing. So train smart and put that time in the gym to good use 😉

I start most of my mornings with 15 mins of high intensity cardio then 45mins of Qi Gong meditation. The health benefits of Qi Gong are numerous and overlap those of exercise, but the greatest benefit of Qi Gong is the elevating effect it has on mood, tolerance to any kind of pain, and energy levels. It also has a restorative, rejuvenating and anti-aging effect. One 45 min session elevates my mood and energy for up to 6 hours allowing me to push harder in the gym.

Today’s full body MRT calisthenic workout. 8th and final set. Aiming for around 8 reps per set. Workout consists of the following exercises: dip/L-sit combo, partial tuck planche pushups, archer pushup, diamond pushup, a squat front raise combo and a reverse bent over rear delt fly (gets cut off at the end). My shoulders and triceps will definitely be feeling this tomorrow and I got my 25mins of HIIT in for today just using some creativity and a set of pushup/parallel bars. There are tons of options with calisthenics for building a strong and lean physique and the workouts are fun!

Physique update. Just finished a 4 month bulking cycle and sitting at 191lbs at around 11% body fat. The goal was to get closer to 195lbs but I’m bored with weights and bodybuilding and want to shift the focus to advanced calisthenics for the next few months. My training has been an hour and a half long full body workouts done 2x/week and 30min cardio and conditioning workouts done 2x/week. Excited to switch things up completely and work towards performance oriented goals rather than just trying to put on muscle.
