24170 pounds for chest and tris this morning. I had more but I could not get it going. Left elbow was hurting all the way through. Everything felt fucking heavy.

I don't do weekends either other than cardio.
Monday - Legs (while everyone else on the planet is doing chest)
Tuesday - Chest and tris
Wednesday - off (cardio)
Thursday - Back and bis
Friday - Light chest day, shoulders
Saturday - off (cardio)
Sunday - off (cardio)
I have found this makes the workouts so much more intense. I MUST reach my numbers before the 60th minute. If I have time left I need to increase my numbers for next time. If I run out of time I need to decrease my rest periods or add weight. I love it. Plus, I don't want Gene Bell calling me a pussy. This dude is 50 and squats 900 lbs, has a 600+ bench, and pulls in the high 700s or low 800s. If it works for him at 50, it's gotta work for me.
I stick with the powerlifting fundamentals: squat, bench, deadlift.

Flat bench, incline bench, declines, flat dbs, pec deck or cross overs or some kind of nautilus pressing machine if there are hot chicks. I always start with flat bench, though. Every blue moon I'll start with inclines and avoid flat benching altogether...but not that often.

sounds like a nice change of goals/pace. I will give it a shot in a few weeks. Squat as much as i can but i dislocated my hip in a car wreck and some days arent as good as others unfortunately. I wasnt able to deadlift for close to 3 years b/c of the car wreck(didnt deadlift b4 that anyways b/c i wasnt informed).
All i have is a power rack so Bench, Chinups, deads, DB's, and squats are my exercises anyways

you can do tons with a Power rack. MP, seated MP, Rows, tri ext. skull crushers, widegrip bench, narrow bench, curls so on and on you just have to use your imagination. pussy

i guess you didnt get my beginning point. My point was i dont do much for legs and i focus on the core. Obviously i know u can do those u listed. RIght now i do DL, squats, bench, incline dumbbells, weighted chinups, DB rows, barbell curls, power cleans, and shrugs.
Dont do much for triceps but want to get a dip station to do weighted dips. I have to watch how much i do with my arms this time of year b/c i literally throw a couple THOUSAND pitches every week in batting practice. That along with my softball games puts a lot of stress on my elbow and shoulders
lmao pussy haha next time get some reading comprehension fag

No shit on pitching. I wouldn't pitch BP at all 30 days before a competition. That shit just f'ing kills me.

yeah it is rough. This weekend i literally threw well over 1000 pitches. Normally during the summer i dont bench at all. I can still do heavy dumbbells with no pain so i stick with that

19950 lbs for back today (plus whatever for bis). I'm confused a bit. On DLs I worked up to 605 x 2. For this one set alone I got 1210 pounds. I wonder if I would have reaped more benefit staying around 515 x 5 (2575 pounds). Perplexing. I wanted both 25000 lbs and to go heavy. So, I guess my question is would I get bigger with the 605 x 2 set or the 515 x 5 set?

i think your earlier posts already answered this. 2575 is better than 1210. I think it is directly proportional up to a point. Where that line is I dont know. obviously there is a point where it doesnt continue being better. Such as 200lbs x20 reps for example.

You just need a plan to reach x-amount of tonnage in 60 minutes. Start lifting like hell to get there...if you get there before 60 minutes you should add more weight the next time...if you run out of time stop fucking around in the gym and lift harder or set a more achievable goal for next time. That's it. Too easy.
You should be a total fucking mess when you come out of the gym. The only break should be when you're adding up your numbers between sets. I have a credit card sized calculator inside of a notebook where I tally my totals. Works really well.

And don't get me wrong...I've lost the 17 pounds because I started doing cardio (sometimes twice a day) and fixed my diet.
