BORs UH 10x45, 8x135, 8x155, 8x185, 8x205, 6x225
Pull Ups BWx1, BW+25x1, BW+45x1, BW+60x1, BWx11
Seated Calf Raises
DB Curls 12x45, 8x50
Cardio Swimming 20 minutes
Notes: Skipped deadlifts today because I've been moving heavy furniture and tearing up carpet all day to replace the flooring. I think my body needed the rest from the heavier weights, too. Went a little heavier on back and topped off the night with a swim in the lap pool.

I've done a pullup workout like that many times.
What I like about it is that after the weight comes off, I feel like I'll shooting to the stars when I do that final set of BW-only reps.

haha yeah it's the truth. I hadn't done weighted pull ups in forever, and I don't think I've ever done 10+ pull ups, just chin ups.

Front Squats 5x45, 5x135, 3x155, 3x185, 1x225, 1x245
Back Squats 1x245, 1x265, 1x285, 1x305, 1x325
BORs OH 10x135, 10x185, 10x185

Notes: Both sets of squats fairly easy, didn't want to max out. First time doing lat pull downs in 2-3 years (no exaggeration). I could have done the whole stack (250) but I had so much trouble getting 200 to come down with me (already over my body weight) there was no way I could even get 250 to starting position lol. Heavy abs and curls to finish up. |

Cardio 2 games racquetball (~1.25 hours)
Decline Press 10x45, 6x135, 6x185, 6x225, 13x185
Notes: Very happy with my lifting performance after intense games of racquetball and heavy lifting yesterday. Last time lifting in the States for at least 4 months.
To anyone interested: Chances are I won't be posting in my journal until I return to the U.S. in mid-late May.

Notes: I'm back in the States after about 4 months overseas. I am weighing around 175 lbs now (~10+ lbs. total loss) and I haven't been able to seriously workout for quite some time obviously. I was able to lift a few times over the past month so hopefully I will regain quickly. Although since I have graduated college, I am about to start a full time job and then I need to think about grad schools, so I hope there is still time to workout!

Hey stranger welcome back! I was actually thinking about you since you haven't been on the forum, but I do recall that you were going out of the country. Wasn't it Mexico?
So getting a real job and thinking about grad school and wondering if you'll even have time to train. All the signs of a middle-age man in training. Remember, something is better than nothing and you can get one butt-kicking workout in 5-10 minutes with the right intensity.
Have a great day!

Ill be beginning my full time job in about 2 weeks and Ill probably be working all the overtime I can to save money for grad school next fall.
thanks for stopping by, Im looking forward to at least lurking the forums and catching up even if I dont have time to post/participate too much lol
