The Lightweight journal

I think it will be fun to start a journal. It will help me track my progress better.
I'm doing a split in which one day I do mostly pushing movements and the other day I do mostly pulling movements.
I work out 4 times per week
Mon: Push
Tuesday:pull
Wednesday: REST
Thursday:push
Friday:pull

My Routine - probably needs some work

Push: (Pecs,Delts, Tris)
3-4 Sets Bench press
3 Sets Incline Bench press
3 Sets Incline Dumbell Press
3 Sets Military Press
3 Sets Cuban Presses - Rotations (Rotator cuff exercise)
3 Sets Seated Lateral Raises
3-4 Sets Close Grip Bench Press
3 Sets Tricep pushdown
4-5 Sets Decline Situps

Pull: (Back,Biceps, and some leg work)
3-4 Sets Deadlifts
3-4 Sets Pull-ups
3 Sets Barbell rows
3 Sets Lat Pulldowns with a Wide Parallel grip bar
3 Sets Standing Cable Curls
2-3 Sets Incline dumbell curls
2-3 Sets Alternating Hammer Curls
3 Sets Shrugs
4-5 Sets Hanging Leg Raises

Going heavy, around 6-8 reps , 1 minute of rest

My Priority is my upper body. My legs seem to grow fast, especially my hammies, most of my jeans now feel unocomfortable and tight in the upper legs. So I don't do much work for the legs.

I'm 6'1, around 198-200 pounds, haven't measured bodyfat yet.
I've been pumping iron for 7-8 months actively. I was 165 when I started so I guess I'm doing well, I gained some fat as well but not too much, I have clearly visible 4 pack.. I'm pretty happy with the progress so far , everybody is complimenting me, telling me I look much bigger and better.

The air conditioning doesn't always work properly at my gym which sucks.
It was 95 degrees a couple of days ago, and it was really hard to workout in the heat. I can't imagine how hot it's gonna be in the following months, especially July, It's gonna be like 100 + everyday, hope they fix the air conditioning.

Diet is fairly clean, around 5 meals per day, each containing carbs and protein, I try to add in some good fats when I can.

And also, I watched the epic documentary 'Pumping Iron' , I think everyone must watch it. It was great, it featured many bodybuilding legends like Arnold, Lou Feriggno, Franco Columbu, Serber Nubret...

Great job!
 
Well.. Today I got ready for the gym, went into my car, tryed to start it, it wouldn't start for some reason. There's no way I'm walking to the gym, It's a 15-20 min. walk and it's around 95 F outside... So I guess I might do some pushups or something at home.
I've got a Alfa Romeo 156, 2.0 l engine and aroun 160 HP .. It'a very nice and good looking car, but not very reliable
 
So.. since I didn't go to the gym today,
I used the EZ bar I have at home. That's the only equipment I had.
I just did a few sets do blow off some steam, nothing serious
did a few sets of barbell rows, barbell curlz, drag curlZ and close grip curlz.. to pump up my guns :D
I fixed my car today, the battery was the problem, so I'm gonna hit the gym for a serious workout 2morrow
 
Okay..
So I went to the gym early today to do my push workout
Started of with flat bench
Warmup set:
66lbs (30 kg) 1 x 30
Working Sets:
176lbs (80kg) 1 x 10
154lbs (70kg) 1 x 10
132lbs (60kg) 1 x 9
110 lbs (50 kg) 1 x 10

Incline bench:

88 lbs (40 kg) 1 x 10
66 lbs (30 kg) 1 x 10

Then.. my friend called me and said he really needed my help, so I had to leave my workout after only 2 exercises :( , at least I helped him out.. that's what friends are for
