Got to sleep nice and early at 2030 last night. It didn’t matter. Today was Bulk Legs. Continue reading →

Good looked I checked last night after taking my Phase I pictures. There is no rest day. Lovely. This morning marked the beginning of the six week bulk phase, and it started with chest. Let me tell you something, though the workout would only last 38 minutes, progressive sets suck. Continue reading →

Final day of Phase I. My energy levels were high with excitement at crossing the first hurdle. It had been a grueling three weeks and I felt fantastic. Continue reading →

Young, nubile women. Long, silky, lean legs. Shiny, tight, short shorts. Eager eyes, smooth complexions, beautiful white teeth. Some type of recreational aquatic sports team was in the gym after their swim. You would think as a virile male I would’ve preened, maybe lifted heavier weights, maybe flirted with the young beauties, maybe established myself as the alpha male. How you would know I’ve become a bitter old man is the fact that despite everything I’ve described all I could think about was their chicken heads clucking incessantly. Not a one of them was there to actually exercise. It was a social convention. Laughter, flappery, irritating distractions keeping me from being in the zone. Continue reading →

And on the sixteenth day, Roc rested.

You can always tell who is new to working out. By new I don’t necessarily mean one who has only being doing it a short time. By new, I am referring to mentality, those that don’t really get it, haven’t really grown in their knowledge, those that continue to risk injury to themselves and those around with every single move they make. They are dangerous. Avoid them at all costs. Continue reading →

I don’t care who you are, doing a set of ten wide grip pull-ups as the end of a three move giant set while maintaining good form is a near impossible task. Doing that entire set three times, with a drop set at the end is something I have yet to accomplish properly. It’s good to have goals. Continue reading →
