That was my diet.



The Workout:

Treadmill:

10 Burpees
10 Pushups into 12lb Dumbbell Row
10 Squat Jumps
30 sec rest
Core/Abs:
3 intervals:
20 sec per side Bird Dig on hands and feet instead of arms and knees
10 Crunches with Legs raised
20 sec Scissor Kicks
30 sec rest


That was the workout.



The Day:

My run was very easy, but I made up for it with a lung burning met-con afterward. To end the session I did some new core exercises. I’m not sure what to make of it because though it was challenging enough to cause muscle failure at various points it did not cause an actual “burn” in my abs or core.


That was the day.

Diet:
6:40am:

{10.1 oz Skinless Chicken Breast} [Canola Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil]
Spaghetti with Olive Oil Sauce {4.4 oz Dry Spaghetti, Garlic, Hot Pepper Flakes, Extra Virgin Olive Oil to coat}

That was my diet.



The Workout:

Squats 3x5x200
Overhead Press 3x1,4,5,5x90,85,85,85
Pull-ups 3x5,2,2


That was the workout.



The Day:

My squat form was better this time around and I felt stronger. My overhead press did disappoint me a little, but I was happy to find that the 85lb reps seemed easier than last time so I am still improving. I must be in that in between phase. Lastly, my pull-up numbers are a little skewed because I had to slightly jump up to reach the bar this time which obviously took out some energy I would have stored for the lift itself. Overall it was a satisfying session.


That was the day.

The Day:

I was on a different treadmill than earlier this week. It was either slightly faster, had a slight incline, or both. The difference made the entire workout that much harder. But, I love that feeling afterward. That iron taste of blood your mouth and the inside of your lungs feeling like sandpaper when you breathe. I fear it now, but I love it then.


That was the day.

Again, I stalled on my bench. I don’t know what’s wrong. I just can’t seem to progress past this 140-145 barrier. I’ll keep pushing. I will succeed.

Thoughts and Opinions:

This is becoming harder and harder to measure. My weight seems to be making a trend towards gains, however every week I keep seeing heavy fluctuations. This one corresponds to a similar result attained two weeks ago. And last week corresponded to a similar result attained three weeks from today. I just can’t find a reliable metric to guage. For now I’ll just keep on doing what I’m doing – maybe eating a little bit more. What does seem to hold steady is the fact that in general I am gaining weight and I am gaining muscle mass. What still worries me is the unpredictable fat gains along with this.

Having forgot last week, I also took pictures this morning. I’m disappointed. I expected them to turn out better. And I use that phrase specifically because in a way I am blaming the pictures themselves and not me. I look at myself in the mirror everyday and I don’t think that the camera captured what I truly look like. However, I cannot deny the fact that physical changes are definitely lacking. I don’t know what to do about that though. I mean, I’m getting stronger – that is undeniable. Why my body’s physique is not reflecting that, I do not know.

The Workout:

Squats 3x5x205
Overhead Press 3x5 x90
Pull-ups 3x5,3,3


That was the workout.



The Day:

As I neared my personal records for all my lifts, I again felt the strain of a boundary pushing me back. No amount of mental will seemed able to overcome this. My form for my squats was shaky. It was still decent, but definitely could use some work. Unlike last time I will not sacrifice quality for my ego. Next lifting session I plan to again squat 205, but if I am unable to do this with strict focus on each rep I will drop the weight until I can truly progress. Now with that said, I pushed 90 lbs over my head today for 3 sets of 5 reps. It felt good.


That was the day.

That was the day.

The Workout:

Squats 3x5x205
Bench Press 3x4,5,5x145,140
Deadlift 1x5x205


That was the workout.



The Day:

I did somewhat better on my squats today, though I was still hesitant to not choose to stay at 205 and not decrease. My shaky form was very close to crossing that line. Afterward I still couldn’t get all my sets to be at 145lb, however the 140 reps were feeling easier than normal and that was encouraging. I also had great focus and tightness with my deadlifts. Overall: a nicely satisfying session.


That was the day.

Overhead Press 3x5,5,3x90
Pull-ups 3x4,3,3


That was the workout.



The Day:

Though I had lots of focus, today was clearly, as the numbers show, a tough day. I could not seem to perform up to previous lifting sessions in the week. However, I came out feeling good as I gave it my all. And yet, I must be honest with the fact that now moving up another 5lbs for my lifts seems unlikely. I will do it. And I look forward to it. But, I’m not going to make historic makes and let me ego overtake realism. If my form breaks down, I must acknowledge the fact that I need more time to progress. In the end though, I will progress. And that is enough for me.


That was the day.
