If you're speaking of "ever had", then I got a few to remember, not sure what is "considered hardcore" though:D

1) Riot bombing on arms using barbell curls and french presses, then followed up by suppersetting pressdowns and seated dumbbell in 15-20-25 method!!! BRUTAL!!

2) Chest workout, started out with a superset of flat db press and flat db flys doing ten supersets of 10, then finished up by a superset of pec dec and incline cable crossovers 4x using 8/12 rep scheme and static holds at the end

3) Heavy back and chest: Alternated pecs and back exercises in heavy poundages. More brutal than it sound, WAY MORE!!! Used BB press/deads, incline db/pulldowns, decline machine/bent over rows, then finished up with 4 sets of pullovers. Implemented 5x5, 3x6, and 5-4-3-2-1... this workout was the bomb guys I swear 72 hours of serious DOMS in chest, back, serratus and slightly abs and legs!!

Some damn good entries in here! Just what I wanted to see...

Keep them coming!

It was like no ordinary day. The minute i woke up I knew I was going to kill it in the gym. I woke up and looked at myself in the mirror and growled at myself, then I did the backwards dragon like in Starsky and Hutch. I brushed my teeth with rage and spit out a bloody paste. I yelled at my dog, until i found out i didnt have one. Who the hell did i yell at? I took the BSN stack and I just turned into an animal. I logged on the net and looked at bodybuilding videos to get me pumped up. I was watching ronnie coleman and when i saw his huge glutes I just jumped up and grabbed my keys and left in my volksawagon pasat. I was in the zone. I was doing 45 on a 25 and when i was at the stoplight I mugged anyone who looked at me. When i finally got to the gym the bsn stack was at its peak, i grabbed my gym bag and walked right to the weight room with a mean look on my face. I started out with reverse wrist curls in the only squat rack in teh gym (i had the "strap" on). I was killing it getting PRs and threw the 40 lb straight bar like it was nothing. I went on to do lat pulldowns and had to put on my gloves and again i killed it getting PR's. I was screaming and grunting, It was like i wasnt even human. IT was like this for the whole workout. Then i finished my insane workout with dumbell tri kickbacks. I was leaving the gym with a huge pump in my arms and then I noticed some kid come up to me while i was leaving and took out one of my earphones. "whats up kid" i said. He says, "hey you forgot your belt", as he gives me my fizogen "strap". I gave him a half smile and while he was walking away, i tell him "kid, take this", I throw him the strap and hope one day he will fulfill what i have accomplished with the strap.

lol i cant wait for more stories!

Well, I really have nothing too hardcore to contribute...and know I wont wint any contest with what I'm about to write, but there is this one leg day in particular that I am not too fond of...

I like to eat about 20-30 minutes before I train...then either use a pre/intra bcaa/creatine/stim type of drink to sip on before and while I train...

This actually happened just this past summer...the gym I goto is in the basement of an old hockey arena...there is very little ventilation, pretty much all that circulates the air around the room is a couple of celing fans that seem to be stuck on the slowest setting possible...it sucked, particularly on leg days when you need oxygen...I'm pretty sure you know where this is going.

Well to make a long story short, I was doing legs, warmed up with some legpress then moved on to the meat of my workout: breathing squats: 20 reps with 80% orm. Got stuck somewhere under the bar around #18 and as I lowered it down to the safety, the pressure on my gut forced a good sized dollop of thick pasty vomit up my esophagus and into my mouth...at this point i was starting to see stars and i could feel the beads of cold sweat gathering across my forehead and brow...I knew this feeling, I was about to pass the fuck out!!! Not only did a vomit inside my mouth...I was also going to pass out!!! I refrained from standing up right away, and at the same time panicked and thought that if i did pass out, i ran the risk of drowning in a mouthfull of vomit...so to play it safe I chugged back the mouthful of vomit and laid back on the cold concrete until I felt good enough to get back up and finish what I started. I laid there for a good 10 minutes, enjoying what little amounts of oxygen were available in this dingy basement gym; a few other people who were training there that day came and checked up on me from time to time...one dude even cleared my weight from the bar and worked in for a couple of sets, being a complete douche and not even returning my orginal weight to it...only taking the time to say 'looks like your done eh buddy?'

"NO IM NOT DONE. IM NOT FUCKING DONE"

I was pretty cheezed at this point. I loaded the bar up to my ORM and figured that I had done 18 reps with 80% I should at least be able to nail one more rep with 100% and go home...well anyways I got under the bar, going only on pure adrenaline, I descended slowly until I could feel my hams touch calf...got real low, and pushed out not 1 but 2, yes 2 more reps...I was quiet, didn't yell or scream. It just seemed too easy...I figured i would hang around and see if I could add a quarter to each side and nail a new pr...

FUCK NO!

...no less than 30 seconds after re-racking the weight my stomach just pushes the dreaded chicken breast/rice/avocado/greenbean paste back up my esophagus and out into my hands like some type of volcanic eruption...there is a good amount of well digested guacamole-looking stuff sitting in my hands...I think to myself, I already swallowed this shit just a few mins ago, and it dont look *that* bad...would it be so bad to eat it again? One part of me wanted to eat it again, and the other was gagging at the thought. I took the high road and decided to at least give it a taste before throwing it away. Hrmm...it not too bad, , so I stuffed another handfull back into my mouth and just threw the rest away...I felt a lil disgusted with myself so I bought myself a double quad on lettuce, washed it down with a full serving of gainer in 3% milk. Held that down pretty good, went to bed...felt better about things, and life in general.

THE END.

dude how do you expect not to win? You ate your own vomit! We all know the decisions you make aren't exactly normal, but this is just beyond crazy.

lololol

We might have a winner here.

That seems more disgusting than hardcore.... How could you eat your own vomit, ya its yours, but damn that is frigg'in sick. Thats like tasting your own diahrea.

Your missing the point my friend. The point is, thats still fucking sick.... LOL

I have puked on leg day before, but never tasted it... It usually goes into a bucket I carry with me!

There are some very good reads in here. They are a far cry from the boring ass cases and statutes I have to read for class...


Still a few more days... Any more takers?

When does this wind up?

Some very good reads and serious work being put in at the gym in here... It made it hard to decide what two to pick as winners. I guess thats the fun in these contests though.

So without further adue here are your winners:

PotentiallyFatal--- Because you puked and ate it! I have puked, but never once did tasting it cross my mind. Maybe more messed up than hardcore, but what the hell it was intense either way.

Chris25533 - doing that squat work out as an amputee is the definition of hardcore to me.
