    Today I just tried to do some legs and abs, 100 reps of bwt squats calf raises and crunches. Trying to maintain what I have ( it's not much) lower body wise. I'm struggling to find leg work I can do but I used the bench as a stop and got along ok with the squats. Have a great Labor Day friends!!

    Rough day, back and bis and it just wasn't there. 3x5 chinups, 2x10 pullovers, 3x10 DB curls and 2x10 hammer curls and that was it!! I know a 13 day layoff is never good but I think some if it is psychological, just dialed out! I walk like a cripple and even my balance is messed up....oh well...

    Karen, gonna try some of those...thanks! Today was 13 sets bench and 4 sets tris. I used the small block and up to a single at 225. I thought it was 215 and was disappointed it felt so heavy until I realized I had put on 2 10# plates after 205 instead of 5s! Today was sets up to 185x3 205x3 225...

    Hodge podge, trying to get some lower body work, so today I did 5 sets of 1leg calf raises, then a squat hold for 60 sec 45 sec and 30 sec....never did these before, just sort of made them up to try to take movement out if the equation. Then I did an embarrassing thing, 3 sets of donkey kicks (...
