⚡ Today the workout spotlight is Traps. Your Back, Jack.⠀ ⠀ Homage to the baddest wrestling tag team of all time, the Road Warriors.⠀ ⠀ You want trap thickness and height?⠀ ⠀ Shrug heavy and shrug long.⠀ ⠀ Heavy is easy using a barbell. Start slapping on 45s. I'm allergic to 10lbs lol.⠀ ⠀ If you're a lightweight, no worries. Use 45 and 25 lb plates.⠀ ⠀ On this day, I liked the 5 x 5 method.⠀ ⠀ Warm up sets of 5 reps. Rest 60s. Slap on another 45. 5 reps and repeat.⠀ ⠀ Once you get to your 5 rep max that's when your 5 working sets of 5 reps start.⠀ ⠀ Done.⠀ ⠀ As for the dumbbell shrugs I tend to lean on the side of excruciating volume of reps.⠀ ⠀ Grab the heaviest set of dumbbells your gym has. I have to work with 100lb dumbbell limits and hence the method to my madness for commercial gym.⠀ ⠀ 20 reps for the thickness. If you'd like to work some grip strength then ditch the straps shirley.⠀ ⠀ You can make the two part of your trap workout.⠀ ⠀ Heavy barbell shrugs first then the volume of the dumbbell shrugs.⠀ ⠀ Your traps will be pre-fatigued with the heavy work of barbell shrugs and those dumbbell shrugs will feel even more excruciatingly good.⠀ ⠀ Again, train safe and always progress confidently.⠀ ⠀ We need the strong to survive clown world.⠀ ⠀ That's it for now. Wish you all well.⠀ ⠀ 📙 My Book LINK in BIO or check your local bookstores.⠀ ⠀ 👕 SHOP Link in BIO.⠀ ⠀ 🗝 Support me via my Patreon Vault.⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ .⠀ #deezify #aewwrestling #art #backworkout #bodybuilding #bodybuildinglifestyle #bodybuildingmotivation #exercise #fitness #fitnessmotivation #gains #gymlife #illustration #instafit #muscle #powerbuilding #powerlifter #powerlifting #powerliftingmotivation #prowrestling #smackdown #wcw #weightlifting #workouttips #wrestling #wwe https://www.instagram.com/p/CTSz1LBJqpP/?utm_medium=tumblr

🦌 All I want for Christmas is... Bench Press. Date 20201208. It was been 2 weeks since Bench. I miss you. Bad news: Lockdown. Good news: Rack & Bench ordered. Bad news: Temporary softness. Good news: Hardened steel, son. Bad news: You can weaken our bodies. Good news: You will not break our spirits. Bad news: Grinches trying to kill Christmas. Good news: Not gonna happen. More Super Fantastic Happy Christmas Time Workouts. Gainzdeer likes to bench. Bask in his side boob. 👕 Shirt available: https://shop.deezify.com/products/gainzdeer-tri-blend-t-shirt This is one of my heavier bench set styles. Bench tip: Put in your reps. Confidence through reps. Become comfortable under the weight. Always save a rep in the tank. The saved rep will help you rerack. No one wants a nutcracker roll. How do you get confident under the weight? I recommend some weekly programming. Programming will help you set the pace. Start at a base. Build up weekly. Peak. Restart. Very similar to a saw blade made up of teeth-like peaks. Use different modalities such as pause reps, slower reps, pin reps etc. Get efficient and plug up weaknesses. As I get older and more white hairs creep into my beard I am either going full Savage Santa or Zeus mode. Either way, I will be happy. I need neither sled nor throne. Just give me Bench.

🦈 I wanted to make Sharks Vicious again. Just dropped #Strongman Shark #tShirts in the Shop. More to come. Problem: Because Brad n Chad sharkgym beta energy sucks. Solution: Super Alpha Fantastic Strongman Shark. Process: - Included my original 2019 sketch process video. - Closeup of the detail I put into the design. - Countless hours of passionate revisions. Deezify Difference: - I am the sole designer. My mind. My hand. My art. - I am not a fitness influencer who hires a designer to create for me. I am always creating. - No generic $5 clip art or Arial font slogan #shirts of the month. - Goal is creating value driven fitness illustrations, motivations and building out my Savage Universe. Designs are organic. Future Iterations: - First drop is usually a clean image for my purists. - Future iteration may include a Slogan variant. Accepting suggestions. - Future Merch Additions: Standard t-shirt version (other than tri-blend); 3/4 Baseball Tee; bags and more. If anyone has questions or requests feel free to comment or DM me.

🐢 Who's your favorite Ninja Turtle? My Workout + Suitable Avatar. It didn't last long, 1 week. The momos in charge locked us up again in Toronto. No gyms again. That's my unemotional statement. I will continue to log any workouts but will dig into the archives for those who train at home or are in free cities. My goal is to be as efficient as possible in my 1hr allotted time. Big compounds and exercises I cannot perform at home. On this day, Gym date 20201117, I decided to perform Time Under Tension reps, slow reps for Squats and Bench. Give myself a break CNS wise as I lifted heavier early in the week. However, I wanted to keep my exercises challenging. I do so by changing modalities, styles, tempo, effort, reps etc. I go to the gym to work not to mickey mouse around. It was a good day.

⚡ It's been a while. Trying to snap the IG algorithm. Possibly too much Toxic Mascularity. Have been working on Vol2 & 3 concepts. Took me a couple of days to transcribe my Sept 2020 workouts. I'm going to post some of my workouts and add a character that best exemplifies the nature of the workout. Plus, I want to draw more characters. Just starting the development of this idea and will add some exercise illustrations to support it later. Stars: My rating out of 5 stars. Usually a heavier style, difficult lifts, or volume intensive workouts will have more stars. Title: the WOD (Workout of the Day) Date + Label. The Letter: designates the order of exercises. Complete the letter A before B. Or complete Letter A1 & A2 exercise before moving on to B. Exercise: the Exercise Name, set x reps and special instructions. Muscles: Right justified within the exercise block is the main muscle group worked. A simple reference if you're skimming through for new ideas. Anatomy: An anatomy chart displays the main muscle groups within the workout. Workout Summary: I start with my big compounds that I track numbers then shift to accessories or body part specifics. A&B. BB Shoulder Press & Squats. My big complex lifts (A) push & (B) hinge. Not sure what weight to use? start with a 10 rep max. C. Barbell 45° Back Raises. My indulgence big heavy. It helps my deadlifts and best booty gainz. But be safe. You can substitute with 5 sets x 10 reps, if you're feeling soy. D. Machine Lat Rows [Dead-Stop] was aiming for some starting strength and kept it in the low rep range. Thickness. And added a drop set. E. Lat Pulldowns. D was my horizontal pull. E was my vertical pull. F. Face Pulls to finish off my traps and back, not to mention rear delts. Take care of yourselves. “Weak people revenge. Strong people forgive.

🦇 Happy #BatmanDay + #ChestDay = This Aestheticness A quick little upgrade on an old #Batman #ChestExercise I drew 4 years back. I included the original which include my favorite Chest Flye giant set. Time machine lol. I usually play around with tempos. If I'm going heavy on bench and dumbbell press and flyes then I will play with the tempo. I'm old. I've got 27 years of gym mileage good and bad. Old men still have to put in the work on fighting sagging titty meat. Father time is a cruel beast. Uploading this and some of my old Batman exercises & images in my vault. Hope you like, smile, and man teets be mighty.

💪 Whacca gonna do brother when #ArmDay runs wild on you!! Maybe one of my first memories of the importance of Arm Day was from WWF Hulk Hogan in the 80s. In my early 20s, in university, it was #nWo Hollywood Hogan and the peak of #wrestling which fueled my workout motivation. The interwebs was slow af, the information stone age and sweet screeching sounds of archon dial up EEEEEEEEE!!!. Oftentimes, we can get into a rut of repeating the same exercises over and over. One quick way to change things up is by changing the angle of the exercise. As for this bicep exercise, it is a variation of the standard hammer curl but with the pulley brace set up high instead of down low. You can adjust the pulley brace at various heights. They all feel a bit different. It's good to train biceps at all angles: where elbows are behind the torso, pinned by side, and elbows up high. Think about the full movement of arm and what it can do. You can change the tempos as well. Usually quicker tempos for my big heavy movements at the beginning of the workout. Then secondary movements with slower negatives and bicep exercises are great for the contraction squeezes. Feel the blood flow. Hit my music!

💪🃏 Prepare for Arm Battle Card Challenge. Pick your cards. I had an idea... Father to Son, Father to... Son. DUN-DUN-DUUUUN! We're not slaying dragons though many of us are chasing metaphorical dragons. One bigger than the next in the gym or in life. Workouts are long epic stories consisting of endless challenges, impossible quests, honor and glory, catastrophic failures, scars and battle wounds. We're all writing our own stories, forever leveling up. We choose what we become. I am a force of creation not destruction. There are 16 combinations possible with the 2 base Arm exercises. How to Play: 1. Every slide will give you a choice of 2 cards. 2. Pick a card before moving forward. 3. Your choices define your plan of assault. 4. Or cheat and choose what you like. I don't judge. 5. If you're feeling tough, and have picked your Battle, perform the opposite cards you didn't pick for Battle 2. I have a couple favors to ask: A. If you like this format, like, tag a friend and drop me a comment. B. Let me know what you'd like to see next. Arm Day makes me happy.

☀️ First week back in the gym and I just added my first 7 workouts in the Vault, my workout illustration archive. As a Silver member you get access to my real world workouts. These are text based version for those interested in full workouts. These are workouts that I base my illustrations from. This is a deep in my #workout methods and protocols. I have the workout transcribed from my hieroglyphic scribbly workout book and make it legible for phone or print. I keep it clean, basic, simple instructions and now note targeted muscles. It's not a program however I think that's the next step. And who knows what else this gets developed into. The High Resolution JPGs workout pages + a 7 page PDF is available for download in the Vault. Yes, I will be working on another Choose Your Workout spotlight next and dropping some new tshirts this week. Thank you for reading, for following, telling friends and support.

🃏🃏 Prepare for battle. Pick your cards. In my days of darkness I came up with this little idea. Not sure what this will transform into. I use to have a choose your adventure book back in the late 80s "Sagard the Barbarian #2 The Green Hydra". I loved the concept of a book (a game book) that the story changed based on your choices. Walking into a gym our brains go through this process. The more techniques we have in our arsenal the better we can adapt. Just a barbarian deciding how to slay lizardous things. This is part game, part fortune teller, part teaching tool, part motivation and using instagram carousels. I did try and balance it out and there's 16 combinations based on the 2 exercises. How to play: 1. Every slide will give you a choice of 2 cards. 2. Pick a card before moving forward. 3. Your choices define your plan of assault. 4. Or cheat and choose what you like. I don't judge. If you've got suggestions or ideas, comment away. Should I do more?

🐉 A little #DragonBall #Goku Redux. I hope I earned some smiles. My warm up ended up taking longer than I wanted. I wanted to redo my #Saiyan #Bench as the original was done 4 years ago. Don't call it a comeback. Added some fx to the time lapse and unfortunately there was more but didn't realize my video capture crashed after a bit. I have included the video, new illustration and old illustration. As for the exercise, GVT is German Volume Training. Lots of volume, I recommend to start at a lower percentage such as 60% of your 1RM if you haven't tried it before and build up from there. Furthermore, increase your rest time to start and decrease it over time. The weight For example, if you can bench 185lbs, 10 sets of 10 reps then increase 5lbs the next time you perform the exercise. GVT is a protocol that does a toll on the body so I recommend approximately 2 weeks before doing it again. Learn. Apply. Filter. Make it your own. Repeat. Feel free to make character requests or if you have any cool ideas. Press the Heavens.
