Kicking Puppies for Strength and Influencing People
In my thread in the main forum, someone said I need to keep a log. I already do so on MySpace but I don't know enough people who know anything about working out to get any good feedback. So I'm starting a log here. My goal right now is just to put on muscle and get stronger. I'm going to start training for MMA in January.
In this log I'm going to post what I ate followed by what I did. We all know that they're both important so both will be on display here for you to comment/ridicule/post completely off-topic shit in response to. Since this is the first post it will be backwards. I worked out yesterday and I don't remember what I ate. I'll post what I ate today.
Right now I'm doing the Eclipse version of a Starr 5x5. I did the first workout yesterday.
Bench: 5x95 5x115 5x135 5x165 5x205
That was the plan. But I couldn't get 5 at 205. Before I got sick I was a hair's breadth from getting 5 at 215. I know it will probably come back pretty quick but it was still depressing.
Squats: 5x45 5x115 5x160 5x160 5x160 (A good bit past parallel but not ass at the ground.)
Dynamic Rows: 5x160 5x160 5x135 5x135 5x135
I finished up by spending some time using the old roll and unroll a weight on a string tied to a stick. My forearms are really weak. I need to do this a lot.
I ate:
1/2 cup raw oatmeal with 1 cup 2% milk and a cup of mixed fruit. A light blueberry yogurt. A piece of whole grain wheat toast with Naturally More peanut butter(less sugar contains flax seeds and flax oil)
A bowl of Honey Almond Flax Kashi with 6 oz. 2% milk.
A six inch Roast Chicken Breast sub on whole wheat from Subway. All the veggies. No cheese. Vinegar for dressing.
Another bowl of Honey Almond Flax Kashi with 6 oz. 2% milk.
Another six inch Roast Chicken Breast sub on whole wheat from Subway. All the veggies. No cheese. Vinegar for dressing.
A bowl of Frosted Mini Wheats. 8 oz 2% milk.
Dinner is a chicken breast prepared on the George Foreman Grill with a cup of protein added pasta with Omega 3 fatty acids.
3 heaping tablespoons of cottage cheese before bed.
