Raising The Bar

Today's session proved to me that I'm doing the right thing by switching my training to the morning, I had a ton of sleep last night and was feeling in good condition to lift but the 'new years resolution' people were in today making it imposible for me to do sets like I'm supposed to and I ended up only managing to do my squats, OH Pressing and a few chest presses

The good news is that I was squating 319 for reps pretty comfortably, I put 154 lbs on the bar for the OH press by mistake but still managed a couple of reps at that weight and I've almost perfected my Asian squat!

I think I'm in a better condition now than I was a few months back to really make some gains

No worries

Here's the bulk of it:
"I’ve decided I’m going to scrap my old training log and start a new one as soon as you can get me a new training schedule (I get paid on Thursday).

I’m going to have to make a few sacrifices if I’m going to progress further so I’m making an hour in the morning or 30 minutes at lunch available to you to plan my training around (still only Mon-Fri). That makes 7.5 hours a week in total and don’t worry about overtraining, I can cope with a lot



The theme I want for the training is for anyone who looks at it to think ‘holy crap, how is this guy still alive’ i.e. I want it tough, and aimed at forcing major adaptation.

I think my goal at the moment is to lower BF % without dropping much weight so my diet is also going to get super clean when I get onto this new plan with pictures being posted more frequently to show change in body comp. Any suggestions here would be gratefully received."

I did the early morning session today to test the water a bit. I got to the gym OK but I was feeling a bit tired while training though.

I did a bit more of a FBW using the a mix of my regular schedules because I hardly got to go to the gym yesterday and I'm off again tomorrow to help a friend move house

As my lifting gloves ripped I used surgical tape on my damaged finger

chin ups

Gloves are pain in the A$$. Just grow stronger hands. :D

I might have to do that, I bought XL and they ripped before I'd ever used them to lift anything!! I doubt I'll be able to find gloves big enough now as I bought the most expensive pair I could find and they still fell apart
 
If it puts any of your minds at ease, I do have quite a large head, feet and hands but they all get dwarfed by my massive wang :eek:

Anyway, yesterday was quite cool, I was helping a friend move and it was a great reminder to me as to why I lift weights. I was lifting all the stuff I used to find heavy and not even breaking sweat. Although I only managed 2 proper meals yesterday, and both of those were take-out so my body needs TLC today
