Lol, I think I had the same man. I was flying through shoulders, using way more kg's than usual and form was still great. Even did squats after shoulders because I had the feeling I could keep on going. weird stuffSonderKommando wrote:
Man, last night was crazy. I was vascular as fuck and had this ridiculous pump going. Mind blowing lift. It was shoulders day, my traps were all swollen up, delts super round and veins running down them through my arms more pronounced than most days.

Good idea, thanksPrivateVendetta wrote:
I do calf raises by standing on a box or off the edge of the step on the assisted pull-up machine and 'hanging' my heels off the back then raising up to tip-toes. Gets better range.
I'm only on 5kg myself (depends on exercise though, some are more obviously, like squats etc). I've gone up a little from what it was. Just takes time. I'm sure a year from now I'll be lifting quite a bit heavierMekstizzle wrote:
Using a puny set of 5kg dumb bells atm, probably gonna get this
Fuck, VAT rises in January. Need to buy this + 2kg of ON
I've upped my range though, learning new dumb bell exercises and working a bigger variety of muscles now. Traps and Delts specifically

Did someone slip in some extra creatine to your shakes when you weren't looking?Jebus wrote:

yeah i can't because we have old fashioned wooden doorframes here and if i even damaged the paint the landlord/estate agent would kick my ass. also my bedroom is the first room on the ground-floor directly opening from the side of the front-door, and i generally don't want to be working out right in front of other housemates/guests as they walk into the house. not soJaekus wrote:
Chest press. You can lay on the floor and do it. Not as effective without a bench as you can't get the full stretch, but better than nothing. Also flyes are great for the chest too. If you want to put extra work on the chest, don't bring the weights together at the top of the movement, leave at least a foot apart. Again, can be done on the floor but a bunch is better to get the lowest part of the movement for maximum tension on the chest.
You should be able to fit a pull up bar in any regular doorway. I just bought one last week.
I do these, but on my bed, feels good manUzique wrote:
just curious:
what's the best exercise you can do for your chest, using dumb-bells... without a bench? are they (m)any?
i can't fit a pull-up bar anywhere in my student house and want something else other than the daily push-ups
Not really. Unfortunately for chest the best exercises are on the bench.Uzique wrote:

I use it, never heard of included routines though. Are you sure they are in the program, can't find themWhite-Fusion wrote:
Does anyone on here use Jefit app for Android? I'm sure someone mentioned it.
If so what do you think about it, and are any of the included routines good?

About the program; it's awesome, great tool for pushing me and making me work harder
