pushups/situps (and all their variations) pullups (if you have access to that), bed/chair dips, wall assisted handstand pushups, and possibly some yoga poses? like headstand. just play around with rep ranges and sets until you find what works for you! and of course, try to eat more even if its hard! if you really can't then maybe try some foods that are more dense in calories?

have fun on the trip btw!!

RONNIE COLEMAN IS AT THE NEXT LEVEL FITNESS IN RICHMOND ON BRIDGEPORT UNTIL 7 PM TONIGHT

i was gonna go, but my time is better spent not waiting in line to see a deflated man. halo meet and greet coming soon

its a solid program, add an extra day of squats for some more volume if you got time + energy!

There are so many body variations for working out! Hell just the push up alone can get you pretty far. Triangle push up, wide set, military, decline etc all hit different body parts. Chair dips are also quite good. Water jugs can be used for good localized exercises as well. "Buff dudes" YouTube channel showed a great DIY forearm builder using a milk jug

Edit: doesn't the 'insanity' workout program use mostly body exercises? Maybe download it and throw it on an iPad or wtv to watch while you're gone

5'10 145lbs, low bone mass. Benched 250 today, feels good. Haven't been eating healthy much, don't have the will power.

Did deads with 505 for a double today. tried for a triple but couldn't lock out.. :(

Not sure if this is the appropriate place to put this, buuuuuut....cheat day:

A possum broke into an Australian bakery and ate so many pastries it couldn't move. This is how they found him. - Imgur

Bench pressed plate and 35 today for the first time... Closing in on 2 plates :D Just started benching in January and couldn't even do a plate haha

Gonna leave this here.

5x5 update. My goal is to hit 4 plate DL this year. Current weight: 186lbs

Squat 5x5 200lbs
Bench 5x5 180lbs
OHP 5x5 115lbs
Row 5x5 135lbs
DL 1x5 295lbs (tonight)

Went after my PR today on bench. PR is 315 x 3, but re-injured my shoulder last month in a overzealous workout. Have only gotten back to heavy this week.


I didn't warm up enough, did one set of 225 x 5 for warmup and jumped to 315. Didn't want to be gassed for my 315 attempt, but ended up being too cold. Next time I guess.

PS - Didn't even notice the extra person in the frame. Second workout video, still noob...

damnn very strong... i'm probably not the only one to think the bar was loaded with 4 plates.

injured back over squat

good thing it's minor and no workout this weekend.
phew.

The more I look into crossfit, the more I like it lol.
Like I don't like it enough to join a crossfit gym, but I would definitely implement some of their workouts into my own. In my opinion, the only real problem with crossfit is that there are a lot of idiots who do the lifts with extremely bad form and end up getting really injured

Pretty beast! Just one suggestion. Try arching harder and driving ur feet into the ground. It'll help u get tighter cause u look a bit unstable.

Ps. Lose the noob gloves and the towel on the bench!

I love my gloves, and you've seen how nasty our benches are :concentrate:

At lower weight I think I am able to maintain my arch and drive my feet in. @275+ though I find I focus more on keeping as much pressure off my shoulder as possible. More squeezing my shoulder blades vs focusing on the rest of the form. But I understand, I'll see more gains if I can do both :-\

I'll be coming down soon for a workout.

And I specifically recall you saying "Damn these benches are pretty nasty" and promptly throwing a towel down :hotbaby:

Just started getting back into the gym last week and oh god have I lost everything I worked toward last year... Having lost about 15lbs in the last 9 months killed me, combined with only working out maybe 10 times since last August..

Been on PHAT for a couple months now, deciding to change things up. Anyone else just stick with the program and change exercises or went to something else? Gains have been slowly decreasing probably cause I'm getting used to the program.

how far in are you? I'm starting week 4 this week and may have been a bit too aggressive to start :lol:

This will be week 3. Yep gotta start off fairly easy. Looking forward to lifting tonight

For those of you who have gained a significant amount of weight [whether it be fat or muscle], has anyone started snoring or been snoring a lot louder?
