This is currently my routine. Two total Body days. They're a bit long and I find I often want to just skip the accessories, but I figure since I only do two heavy days, I need to push through.

Oh lord I feel you on this! Welcome to the thread and congrats!!

Looks good Jeremy! Looking forward to hearing how it goes!

I know a lot of people bristle at name changes... But personally I think it's beautiful. ❤️

You know how rocks erode in the river over time? I wonder if my thighs will do that while I walk on the treadmill. This chub rub is something else. Lol

I don't count the internet. Way too many married men wanting to share *progress pics* In person, nah... Unless I am oblivious. Which could be possible since I'm quite shy and don't make much eye contact. Though, I've been at my gym almost a year and I might say hi to one person soon! Lol We've smiled/nodded at each other…

Thank you! 😊 Same here! They don't stand a chance this year! Haha Thank you! The leg days are finally paying off!! 😁😁

Yeah Gus! So good to see you coming back!! ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ You're doing it the smart way!

Great work!! Though 5 sets of a 1rm is pretty darn impressive on its own! When I do my 1rm, that's pretty much ALL I can do... Just one. Lol

Uh oh... Sounds like someone might be gravity falling onto the toilet today! Haha Well done! And no worries for short changing my deads. They weren't offended! 😁😁

140 + 245 + 305 =690 😁 I was originally going to do deads as well, but it was already almost 930 and I had to work the next day. 😊

I have been stuck at a bench 1RM of 125lb for YEARS. YEARS I SAY! I finally broke the 1 plate barrier! Hell to the fn yeah!!! 1x140lb! (I tried 145 and didn't quite get there... But let's not be greedy 😂) I screwed up my 1rm testing for squat. I miscalculated and put too much on the bar before I was ready. Had to bail (but…

oh geeze man, so sorry to hear this. I hope you and your wife come out the other side ok (and feeling better than ever!)

I look forward to following along as you progress!

I'm on week 7/7 myself, so this week I'm doing 4 sets of doubles at 95% I honestly feel like this round has been stronger and felt great all around. Next week would either be a deload and then a 1rm test, if I were competing... Or I do the 1rm test, then deload, and start back again with 70% of 1rm. 😊 Tonight's workout was…

Tips... Prop phone against water jug. If you want to keep your sound and have android. The only one that has worked was snapchat. If you have apple, I think you can use the video camera using some super secret tip! Don't wait so long!

Debatable... the dad bod thread is pretty epic. HAHA

Yay for calves! I have been frustrated with lat pull downs / face pulls / assisted pullups. Well... most upper body things because I push to failure every time and yet can't seem to get more reps per set without sacrificing form. I've started adding a fourth set to increase total volume, but those gains are tough to eke…

I love your socks!!! :smiley:

Tonight was pretty great overall. Many of you know how hard it was for me to get 275lb 1 for deads. So it feels special to see that weight as my working set and to have the bar move so nicely! Tonight's workout... Bench: 10x65lb, 5x95lb, 3x115lb, 3x125lb, 14x95lb Deads: 10x135lb, 5x165lb, 3x195lb, 3x235lb, 3,3,5,4x275lb…

Need to? Maybe not... Choose to? Yep!

looking great, Twitch! No filter needed!

Haha thanks Gus! @Leo_King84.... Gus is right.. I'm not your average "girl". I am 6'1", 47 yo, and 198lbs of awesomeness. 😂😂 I have no doubt that you'll get there 😊

This is a summary of my last 4 weeks on the RYSE app. I was using bodyspace but it seems to have died. Ignore the PRs... All the initial lifts were PRs until I started repeating them. 😊 I'm pretty proud of the weight moved, the distance traveled, and the total time. 😁

Thanks guys! I know that my form was a bit wobbly in these vids. I really wore myself out with the 235x3, so I found it hard to finish my set as planned (well, with an extra 5lbs because it was way easier to go down to 225 than 220 LOL). It's funny how it negatively impacted my mindset and how I mentally approached the…

Is this you? Cool vid!

Screwed up my lifts and ended up accidentally lifting heavier than intended*. The surprise of the weight threw me off, but I got it done. As it turns out, it was a 3RM PR for me. 😁 Squats: 10x95lb, 3x135lb, 3x165lb, 3x195lb,3x235lb*, 3,4,3x225lb. (note the vid is 225) OHP: 5x70lb, 5x5x65lb Lat pulldown: 9,8,7,6x120lb…

Great work and welcome to the thread!
