Hey, I've always tracked my progress with pen and paper however have decided to make it more public so anyone can give suggestions.
Just starting a new routine so thought this was the perfect moment to start a log. I've been doing a 5 day split, but am now switching to a Legs/Push/Pull/Rest/Legs/Push/Pull/Rest... split, then every 4 weeks i'll do a 5 day split for a week to 'mix it up'. I have a football match every wednesday and some saturdays, training sundays, however this shouldn't impact too much.
I'm currently 6' 88.5kg.
Right, so I'll post todays workout to get it going:
Legs
Squats
40kgx10
60kgx9
80kgx5
90kgx3
100kgx1
110kgx6
120kgx4
120kgx4
Showing my warm up to my working sets, think I got it right today however the 110 was too easy, attached a form video of 120kg below, I want to work on speed of the set, but any comments on form etc are welcomed...
Seated leg curls
70kgx9,x7,x4 Rest Pause (10 breaths between each set)
Leg extensions
85kgx11,x8,x5 Rest Pause (10 breaths between each set)
I think I'll switch to single leg extensions to make sure i'm using both equally as i've a tendency to prioritise the left since my operation on my right blah blah etc.
Push Tomorrow.

Finally back on track for football, won 5-1 today, disappointed with the goal we conceded but otherwise good performance!
I've realised that I haven't really said much 'about me' so to speak, so on my next rest day i'll look at putting something together so this isn't just a list of numbers attributed to a profile on BB.com. However for now, back to the session today:

these didn't feel as fluid as they have before, I was definitely struggling on the weight but got them out, maybe from the CGBP going up just before...
Pretty happy with today, balanced everything well and was fresh when I got in the gym after football, deads tomorrow after a uni day 9-5 with a test thrown in for good measure... prepared my food already though which will get me through!It's time to Sacrifice a lot.

Right then, I said I'd get around to putting up an about me, so here it is:
About Me
Background
I've always been into sport from a young age. Football was my 'thing', couldn't get enough of it. I started playing for the year above, then going on summer camps, getting involved as much as I could. This lead to me joining an academy age 9-15. At this point massive changes happened. I pulled out the academy to prioritise school and went on trial at a more local academy to cut down travel time. But during this broke my knee. It's called osteochondritis, but basically the bottom of my femur got 'bashed off' and twisted in my knee. So, I was out of action for a while then when I tried to come back the same thing happened to my ankle, twice. And this is how I got introduced to the gym.
Obviously i'd had plenty of time to get on with school sat on my arse not doing any sport but as soon as I could start rehab I did, and as much as possible! This started off with just treadmill running, but gradually this grew as I realised the harder I applied myself to anything, in the gym, academics etc, the better the results. And then I started getting hooked. I starting weights and reading around when I was 17, and from then it's grown.
Present
I'm now currently in second year of uni studying Chemical Engineering. I play football intramural-ly but am hooked on the gym. Seeing gains gives such satisfaction, and I can't imagine any other way of living now. I also train for events such as Toughmudder every so often, which will provide something different when I do through the log.
I'm looking to start getting videos involved more as they're definitely more exciting for anyone interested, and provide the opportunity for feedback.
That should be me as more than just a list of numbers for you guys now!It's time to Sacrifice a lot.

You may of noticed no legs day yesterday, I played football in the morning which went to extra time during which I took some knocks.

Been RICE-ing and seeing improvement while wearing support throughout the day today so hopefully should be okay tomorrow! However, moving on to today:

Rest day today, but just a note about the lack of a post for pull: my ankle's still swolen and bruised and is preventing the flexion required for squats and deads, therefore tomorrow i'll be doing some time on the bike to try and loosen it out and help move the fluid but not a leg day as planned, hopefully it'll recover ASAP.

Good job on deadlifts, coming along nicely
Some tips:
-Don't let form breakdown scare you, when you're pushing yourself its going to happen at some point. As long as you're not literally doing a back-snap (i.e. literally pulling with your back bent over double), you should be fine. Obviously go by feel though
-Buy chalk for grip assistance
-Buy belt
With 180x5 approaching you'll be nearing a 190-200kg max I'm fairly sure

Cheers for the input pal!
You'll be very pleased to here i've recently bought a belt! It's not a massive one but adds a little bit of support. I'll try and take the form onboard, it's partly mental for getting the last rep i've realised! Also chalk, don't get me started, the gym at uni ban you if you use it... te fuu. So trying to work on hook grip and using straps if I need to. I'll buy some when i'm back for 12 months on my industrial year in summer though.
I might try a max day after i've got the 3 5's. Drop me a text about when you're free while i'm back and we can get some sessions sorted out btw!It's time to Sacrifice a lot.

Update for the first two sessions of this 5 day split just before I head to hit legs, loving the change in pace, and safe to say my body if currently in WTF mode. Minute rests and supersets, body is crying throughout every workout!
Chest
Super Set:
Incline Bench
80kgx10, 85kgx6, 85kgx6, 85kgx5 drop 40kgx6
Incline Dumbbell Fly
20kgx10, 20kgx10, 22kgx8, 24kgx8
Single Set:
Cable Cross Overs
12.5kgx20, 12.5kgx20, 15kgx12, 15kgx12 drop 7.5kgx8
Super Set:
Dumbbell Flat Bench
20kgx10, 20kgx8, 20kgx7, 18kgx8
Dips
BWx5, BWx5, BWx4, BWx5
Hate to leave my ego at the door for this superset; dying doesn’t even describe it. The chest pump though, amazing…
Super Set:
Smith Machine Incline Bench
40kgx10, 40kgx10, 40kgx9
Pressups
BWx4, BWx3, BWx3
I had to finish each set with girl push ups, literally on the floor dying at the end of this session. I also added some HIIT on the end to get the heart rate up.
Back
Kept up the one minute rests between sets throughout today again!
Single Set:
Deadlifts
140kgx15, 160kgx9, 170kgx6, 170kgx5
Super Set:

50kgx12, 50kgx12, 60kgx8, 60kgx8 drop 30kgx6
Wide Grip Pull Ups
BWx6, BWx6, BWx4, BWx3
I’m not even sure if the pullups count as sets I was getting so few! But I was taking them slow and making sure to focus on my lats and feeling them now the day after, I did something that hit them!
Super Set:
Seated Rows
40kgx10, 40kgx8, 40kgx8, 40kgx6
Wide Grip Lat Pull Downs
70kgx10, 70kgx10, 70kgx8, 70kgx8
I added various ab exercises 15 seconds rest in between sets, ab roll out etc.
loving this switch up, and hitting legs in an hour or two!It's time to Sacrifice a lot.

Quick update as i've been lax updating it since switching to the 5 day split. I've decided to do two weeks of the 5 day cos of how much it shocked my body, this week so far for chest and back i've died a lot less at the back end of the workout.
Also, i've started dabbling with occlusion training, been reading about it and it seems to be given good results to people in places I want to go. I'll keep you updated on how that gets along. I'll be starting the L/P/P on sunday again and will update every session from then on. Meanwhile this week i'll put legs up as it's a killer workout, but coursework might take priority given how i'm getting on for shoulders and arms.It's time to Sacrifice a lot.

Dropped the last set of hammy curls to really drain everything out of my legs. Really enjoy this type of training, it's hard but feels so fricking good as well! I'll be back onto LPP on monday, also will be back at my uni gym so no more HS machines! happy with progress on this first cycle through the 6 weeks. Also it's coming to summer so will be trying to cut down fat, so i'm not expecting lifts to be going up more maintaining for the next 6 weeks or so.It's time to Sacrifice a lot.
