FatGuyNoMore's Training Log

[pagangoddess]

I got to thinking about Success... what is it?

You might want to move this to a different thread. Unless of course you want to derail your training log. Me of all people know how to derail a training log. Mine is full of it.

So is this a rhetorical question or are you looking for a response?

it was more of a reminder to me to come back to this when i had time... i will in a bit.

Hey FGNM. Congrats on the test result man . Modified workout seems to be working as well. Onwards and upwards.

Morning workout... really early... so much so i forgot to do rackpulls and did deads instead...

BoxSquats 115lbs 5x5 form was sketchy.. will do again
OHP - 85lbs 5x5 again... just wanted that satisfaction of struggling on last couple reps on set 4 and 5 but succeeding... will move the weight up next time
Deads 150lb. 1x5

This will be later tonight as i had a early appt this morning.
Pullups/Chinups
Prones

[FatGuyNoMore]

Hmm... stronglifts offline again last night...

pullups (bicep dom) without the band and no jumping... 5, 3, 3, 4
prones did em.

[FatGuyNoMore]

BoxSquats: 125lbs
Bench: 115lbs 5x5... another pr for me! added 50lbs and just unracked it and held it there for 10 sec the first sec, then took it off and flew threw the first set... second set only added 20lbs for 10 sec... then 3rd, 4th, and 5th i just got pysched up...
Inverted Rows 10,8,6,6
Pushups (with bars, no more from bench) 8, 6, 3 (arms flailed out and last set, wimp)
RevCrunch 3x12.... brought and kept my knees in... and they hurt right now... wow do they hurt... not sure gkw but i think i hate these more than ohp... have to see next time.

I'll be off for a couple of days and wont post again till Sunday EST... got some stuff to take care off..

later everyone...

[FatGuyNoMore]

BoxSquats 135lbs 5x5 form was sketchy.. will do again
OHP - 90lbs 5,5,5,5,4 DAMN this was heavy... push pressed number 4
Rackpulls 225lb. 2x5, now before someone jumps on me i do mixed grip and i dont want one hand getting stronger than the other... all that said... my form was not what it used to be on these so ill drop it 20lbs next time...
chinups (non bicep dom)... band assisted 10x1 with a slow let down
prones 70s, 30s, 30s... thought id go as far as i could on the first set for fun...

[FatGuyNoMore]

Working with Mehdi on everything... might not post here too much over next month...

[pagangoddess]

Congratulations FGNM!! Keep us updated as much as you can.

[FatGuyNoMore]

[groundskeeperwillie]

Thanks Bud, just trying to set myself for a long "career"

[FatGuyNoMore]

Some other stuff... Mehdi can see it... so why not show the world?

If anyone has a youtube account send me your account and ill share with you my vids of my exercises but I am NOT making that available to the entire world... just a little too personal for me...

weight from yesterday (i always weigh myself on wed) morning 192.5
waist 36.75
arms (4 inches above elbow crease, not flexed, arms at sides) both were same - 11.25 - weird cause my right arm is much stronger
thighs right-21.25 left-21
chest (at nips)- 42.25
neck ( at base) -14.25

measured 5-6 times at chest, waist, and thigh - bf - 17.6%

Goals for next 30 days (effectively 12 workouts) In Order of Importance
1) BoxSquat and Deadlift with out pain (if i do nothing else ill be happy with this)
2) Get Stronger
3) Lose BF

In one month ill have done 12 weeks exactly of stronglifts... Once I get to 1x BW BoxSquat I might switch to Wendlers 5,3,1, Strong(er), or SL Advanced for 12 weeks... nothing against stronglifts, i like it but i get bored easily with routines... however i like that i can measure my progress with stronglifts from workout to workout...

My wifes got a "Walk to Fight Cancer" (we call it relay for life here) fund raising drive that lasts 24hours on Friday thru Saturday... last year i walked a marathon... i dont think ill do that this year but i might end up with 10-15 miles...
i was thinking about just taking some bcaa's to offset the exercise but ill probably just consider those three meals ill be there in the middle of the night my cheats for the week... later everyone.

[groundskeeperwillie]

Hey FGNM. Nothing wrong with switching things round if you get bored easily. Too many people out there get bored easily then stop altogether. Good luck with the walk too, 10-15 miles is none too shabby dude!

Sooo... without too much fanfare or anything doctor says he thinks i tore my lateral meniscus in my right knee... not from doing strong lifts... wait for it... doing 3 full ass to grass squats with a 15 lb (you didnt read that wrong) kettlebell....

its a weird thing... i can walk on it... just cant turn on it... cause man is it painfull...
MRI will get scheduled on monday... not sure when it will be back...

Im still training with mehdi... still doing everything above the waist... and watching my diet like a hawk... trying to get to 10% bf...

im not discouraged, just pissed i cant squat/deadlift for a couple weeks/months... will know more after mri...

hang tough everyone.
