Marked's Training Log

[Marked]

This is my log, to hopefully use and document my "progress". The main goal is obviously to get stronger. However im not really looking to gain muscle mass, i just want to get to a certain weight in each exercise and keep up that progress.

I was never too much into weight training until this past year of High School. So you can say ive had about a years worth of experience so far, and ive been training off and on coming off my 4 months break from weights. Hopefully i can get to the numbers i want by January.

A little history- My name is Alex, im 16 y/o, 5'8 and 170 pounds. Ive been pretty active my entire life, playing various sports from hockey, football, and baseball to wrestling for a year or two. But recently ive been slacking a lot, and my physical appearance is starting to look a little soft. I got into MMA a year ago, and immediately i was hooked, right now im hoping to get to a stacked 170 and cut to 155 for fights. I have just gotten a membership at the Gym across the street from my house.


My usual schedule looks like this:

Mon: Workout A
Tues: Cardio
Wed: Workout B
Thurs: Cardio/BJJ (soon)
Friday: Workout B
Saturday: Rest
Sunday: Workout A

I don't follow a day to day schedule, i just do my heavy work outs every other day.

Workout A: Squats (5x5), Bench (5x5), BB Rows (15x5), Curls (10x3), Triceps (10x3).
Workout B: Powercleans (5x5), Deads (10x2), Chins/Pull-ups (Until Stoppage), Push-Ups (Until Stoppage).

Current One Rep Maxes:
Friday, September 11, 2009.
Powercleans- 170
Bench- 180
Squat- 220

I will try to mix it up as much as i can and hopefully i wont get bored of the routine, CC is always welcome. Im hoping to add a few more exercises soon, so if you guys have tips they would be very appreciated. Thanks for reading.
