Fighting the effects of marriage
So here is my training log, please feel free to help out as much as possible I respect your opinions and you seem to be a pretty bright group of people....ish.
Below the dotted line is old, these are not my main goals anymore please skip to the bold for new
........................................ ........................................ ........................................ ...............................
First off, my goal isn't to be a powerlifter, I want to gain quality muscle and increase strength along the way....sort of a Franco Columbo deal. My leg days are limited because I injured my back at work (a large pallet of equipment started to fall, my dumbass tried to stop it, enter lower back that hurts all the time) and no one ever really taught me to DL properly.
The split isn't a push pull thing but broken down by muscle group, Chest Back Legs Arms Shoulders/Traps.
I honestly don't like working arms, not just trying to sound cool but they are there just to even things out in my mind I guess.
This is my first week of doing this split with my new goals, the diet is non existant right now and once work gets situated I'll hope to get on something steady, today was back
Pullups x30, I did as many as I could each set until I reached 30, going nice and slow. Bodyweight is 190ish right now.
Bent over rows 115x12, 135x12 155x10 then finally 185x8, I plan on lowering the reps but I misjudged how much I could do and accidentally did two sets of 12
Seated Cable Rows, same exact thing happened as BOR, it's the first week so I'm still learning. Can't remember the weights.
Then finally dumbell rows 45x3x 10
No DL's today because my partner was a biatch.
Again diet is pretty non existant, I take creatine in my water while lifting, whey after and casein before bed, I plan on lots of good carbs to start the day and slowly weening off them towards the end of the day sort of deal.
........................................ ........................................ ........................................ .................................
My goals are very simple now, I want to be a powerlifter, quite the change from my previous goal. I want to train for a year then compete. I want to add as much muscle mass as possible along the way though too.
I currently work with the Wendler 5/3/1 program for a few reasons. First, the slow strength gains are important to me because I tend to burn out and expect unrealistic goals, with this program I know what I should be expecting. Also I like this program because of the volume and it lets me make muscle gains as well as strength
You can keep reading the log for the weights I push, I honestly don't know my maxes right now
Time to do work
