A great one for the back (the video will be coming sometime soon)

Alright, for tonight's training session I went a little different than I did last cycle. Started out with a killer combo move on the rings. Start in a dead hang. Then, using nothing but your lats, perform a straight arm lever until you hit an inverted hang. Slowly lower back to the dead hang and then do a slow pull up. Repeat until you can't do any more. Great movement. And that just started out the work out.

When I video it next Tuesday I'll make sure to post it. This will leave your lats pumped and sore. Great stuff.

A great variation of the dip


This is a great variation that I got from the first Mr. Olympia, Mr. Larry Scott. A great variation of the dip. If you have shoulder issues, you might want to leave this one alone. But, if your shoulders are healthy, this is a great one.

How to get a strong core!


Do you want a strong core?

Here's how to get it!!

Hit 3 sets of 10 in the Good Mornings in a super set with 3 sets of 10 in Weighted Sit-ups. Take absolutely no rest breaks in between the movements or the sets.

Here I used 200 pounds for the Good mornings and nailed 10 reps, 10 reps and 10 reps.

And I used 200 pounds for the Sit-ups and hit 10 reps, 10 reps and 15 reps.

Lateral Raises

 
 
After Finishing up 100 reps of military presses, what do you do next? Simple, hit 3 sets of lateral raises. Here's the final set from last night's training.

Old School style Military press


Here's the 10th set of 10 sets of 10 reps in the old school style (feet together, legs locked) military press. Upped the weight, cut down on the rest, and still nailed the 100 reps

Feeling Artistic part 3




Still Feeling artistic!

Feeling Artistic part 2:

I was feeling a little artistic again, was in between projects, and thought I'd play around with some poses.




Not Bad at all, if I do say so myself, lol!

Can Melissa nail 100 Squats with 225 pounds?
