Benchpress: 95lbs. 1x8 115lbs. 1x6 135 lbs. 1x5 155lbs. 1x5 165lbs. 1x3
Triceps: Cable pressdown two sets at 100lbs. Dips: 2x5 at bodyweight Dumbell Kickbacks: 1x10 at 10lbs. each arm.

Not really surprised by the significant drop in lifts, a couple of weeks and I should be back up to par.. Going to check my weight etc. soon.

Wow quick update. My chest workout posted above had me sore for roughly 6 days. Im still recovering from this workout, my arms wont straighten out and this was on Wednesday:

StraightBar Curls: 65lbs. 3x6
Hammer Curls: 20lbs. 2x8
EZ Bar Curls: 45lbs. 1x6

Cablerope Crunches: 3x12 @ 110lbs.


I've only gotten a few workouts in but after such an incerdibly long break i need my muscles to get the time they need to recover before I use them again, so hopefully everything will be full swing in two weeks. :

back yet again


This website is awesome for saving threads, so I wont waste bandwidth by making a new journal.

Anyway Last 3 Weeks I've been doing push-ups, crunches, and basic dumbbell exercises to get my muscles back into recovery mode...

Ive been in college in ft lauderdale been a very intense life experience for me my first year on my own and first year in college, Im ready to reincorporate fitness into my life. I feel like my goals have changed however. Before I wanted to get alot bigger before I cut weight, now I feel like I'd like to cut the fat first then build up.

I'm going to incorporate some Max-OT principles into my training as well as a little of my own know-how. New plan is:

Workout core areas 3 days a week: Chest, Legs, Back.
On one core day that core area will be neglected in favor of 2-3 secondary muscle groups: biceps, triceps, calves, traps, forearm(maybe), ABS.

On off days I will be doing aerobic exercise, this will very from long distance running to shorter max-ot type aerobics like shuttle runs or high intensity cycling.

3 muscle days 3 running days then 2 days of just straight recovery.... Doesnt really follow the days of the week but who said I have to work around a 7 day week for my workouts :


Any tips or advice to help me get back into things would be great, Im going to take my bloodpressure, weight, and hopefuly some measurements and pics this week. Great to be back. GET HUGE.

Blast from the past, can't believe I found this account again after a nearly 4 year hiatus!! If any of my old friends from here are still around get in touch with me, I'm going to need some motivation haha!

Status update:
Started this journal when I was 16 years old, I am now 22 years old. I dropped out of college(long story), and now am working the 9-5 grind so to speak. My goal is to bulk up for the next three to six months, I have no idea what diet or workout plan I'm going to do, if it's even going to involve free weights or simply body weight exercises. I'm going to start a new journal however as this one is a completely different era in my life and what I wanted.

Hopefully with a bit of maturity and wisdom, I can make greater gains in less time than ever previously.
