kicking butt in here, and selling cars at the same time!
nice!

[MikeM]

Are they "renegade" rows?

And I gotta ask, but that workout looked positively light compared to your usual. You feeling OK? Or are you just being more careful to balance the work out all the way through instead of maybe frontloading it, as you have perhaps been doing?

Just curious as I like your routine and am surprised to see one easy enough that I can do it!

[Fazc]

The *Badboy* rows I named after the local hoodlums at the gym I used to go to! One end of a bar is anchored to the corner of the room, and the other end is loaded. You straddle the bar and row.

MikeM! Thanks for noticing! You're absolutely right, the workout was lighter as it's a new medium day i'm introducing to the week. Here's my schedule now:

Sun - Heavy
Mon - Light
Tuesday - OFF
Wednesday - Heavy
Thursday - Medium
Friday - Heavy
Saturday - OFF

This week has been pretty rough as i've had to move sunday forward which means i've done 5 workouts back to back each day of this week since Monday

I get a day off tomorrow and heavy again on Sunday! Anyway this was today's workout:

Quite a struggle with motivation today on the diet, I don't feel particularly hungry but the temptation to eat more and feel stronger is always there.

[Off Road]

Nice workout Faz. You must have superior conditioning.
About the rows, I guess it's called the bad boy row after the bar slipped out of the corner a few times (ouch). I've always called them ghetto T-bar rows.

[MikeM]

Yes, I want to eat all the time! Who are these twigs that have to force themselves to eat? That's what I want to know. I can eat myself into a stupor daily if I were to allow it. Who are these wimps that have to force themselves to drink a protein shake every two hours in order to gain a few pounds! Let them try to deny themselves food when they want to gnaw every animal they see to death! That's discipline!!
