I'm totally serious too, I had a lot happen this year, w dad passin, settlin the estate, movinback to Arkansas, then back to indiana for most of the summer, then to Florida in September n bein pretty much homeless till October, all that takes a toll but I just kept at it, n usually after a month off I would do a workout once be sore as hell, then do it again, be a lil weak, n by the third time it was like I never missed a day, that was when I noticed hey I justleet a ne pr. Despite all the delays and setbacks I've still managed to up my bench from 155x5 to 195x5 (as of tonight new PR) n the weight u lost is almost definitely water, you'll be beatin PR's in 2 weeks.

27th Feb 2010
Another day of discovering how much weaker I have become, but there was a silver lining to it as well ...
Bench Press - 185 lbs (down by "only" 5 lbs. glad to see that my weakest lift has suffered the least)
Squat - 225 lbs (Pretty sure I could have gotten 235, but anyway, I will assume its down by god knows how much given that I have now switched to Oly style squats rather than PL style)
Bent over barbell rows - 205 lbs PR!!
Last did rows in October. Pretty sure that deads and cleans over next 3 months helped with the rows even though I didnt do any barbell rows. I think the number might have been higher if I tried rows before this enforced lay off. 205 lbs was perfect. Pulled 215 lbs as well, but the form was f***ing sloppy, more a heave than a row. So I will not count that.
Anyway, training proper starts Monday. After not working out and under-eating for so long, I think I should kick start my metabolism a bit. So Monday will be some form of conditioning work with low weights and high reps, with very little rest.

So yesterday we all (8 of us from the pub I go to)went to bike week in daytona, had a blast, but haven't drank in quite some time, apparently tolerance doesn't go away, lemme jus say, damn I drank a lot. it was kinda rainy n a lil cold but dint slow us down a bit, was sorta like a mini spring break, nobody even got arrested, the food was killer, n the music, well it rocked. We then went back to our bar n I decided hell I never really drink very often so I better do this right, sat their and drank a ton more, one of the dudes I know their is gon help me w/ my philosophy class, (thank god) so I got a tutor outta the deal, the owners locked us n n we stayed till 5am, was pretty proud of myself dint cave n smoke (tho I really wanted to a few times). Today I woke up n suddenly remembered part of the reason I don't really drink much ne more, everything hurt, holy crap, I couldn't move for almost 5 hours, I thought I was gonna puke every time I did, took me another 2 hours after that to get right again, then did a ton o homework, so no gym today. Still feel a lol pukey bet my workouts blow for the next couple days

1st March 2010 - light lifting/ cardio
Warm up = messing around with just the barbell
The bear complex:
95 lbs x 5 reps x 3 sets (this knocked me out and left me winded)
Giant-set:
Machine incline bench: 140 x 15
Lat pulldown: 100 x 12
Machine incline bench: 140 x 12
Lat pulldown: 100 x 10
High Intensity Interval Training:
Jogging for 1 minute, sprinting for 20 seconds - 3 intervals
Mountain climbers:
no track of reps
Ab-wheel
no track of reps
Drink gallons of water puffing like a steam loco.
This little session was over in less than 20 minutes, and left me in no doubt that I am in VERY poor cardio-vascular shape indeed. My target for bear was 95 x 10 x 3, but I could get only 95 x 5 x 3. This was not because the weight felt heavy - it did not, but because at the end of 5 reps, I was totally out of wind.
Anyway, for those of you who would like to know what a bear complex is, here is a little video explaining it. I would love to get in the sort of shape the guy in the video is in. Having been bowled over by 95lbs for 5 reps, I can appreciate the conditioning of this dude really well.

Weak, but improving. 185 lbs on bench felt easier than few days back. Squats went up to 245 and still felt easy after doing 225 the first day. Was a lunch workout, and I didnt have lunch packed. So PWO = large pizza
Tomorrow is a rest day, and then on to Press, cleans, rows and snatches on Friday.

Todays workout
Did a heavy shoulder session today, along with chest, neck, grip work and core (all of the things I missed most about my old gym[the gripper unit, the neck roller]).
Barbell Shrugs: 675x12, 765x12, 855x10, 855x10
Dumbbell Shrugs 150lbx20,20,20,20.
Standing Overhead Barbell Press: 135x10,10,10*
*first time doing these for REAL since my surgery, I tried them the other day but they felt too awkward, today was better, I'll try and get some weight on the bar next effort, next week.
Hammer Strength Seated Military Press (#= amount of plates each handle)
2 plates eachx10, 3plates eachx10, 3 plates eachx10.
Hammer Strength Wide Chest (# same as above, per handle):
3plates eachx12,12,12.*
*need to go heavier on this next effort, next week.
Pec Deck: 170x15, 200x12,12.
Hand Gripper Unit: 2platesx20,20,20
Hammer Strength Neck Roller: 50lbx10,10,10.
Cable Crunches: 100x15,15*
*back tweaked a bit during the last set of bar shrugs, and the core hurt.
All in all a great first workout back at the old gym!!! I did tweak my lower back on my last set of barbell shrugs with 855lb, when I lifted the barbell up the metal hook (on the rung to hold a barbell on the squat rack, about 2" above where the barbell was being lifted vertically from my start point) on the squat rack) caught the barbell on the left side, and forced my lower back to have to compensate the effort turning towards the opposite side. Didn't feel great!
Had Black Powder PRE workout, but it was worn off by the time I got to training, and I felt it, sucked. Had Purple Wraath INTRA workout, still tastes like butt, but does a body good....
Tomorrow should be a good workout, going to Jewlz gym with her... it's a Workout World, BUT after todays incident with the barbell and lower back tweaking I think I'll be alright there...Member: Team Ground Zero.

8th March 2010
It was a strange day. I was supposed to return graded reports in the lab I am handling. Went there to find nobody around. WTF?? Was left wondering how come no one is around for next few minutes.
Was also supposed to meet somebody. Went to his office only to be told he was stepping out for a meeting and we should be meeting same time tomorrow. Another WTF moment.
Anyway, on to the workout, where I was feeling a bit tired and off ...
Cleans
45 x 8
95 x 5
135 x 3
155 x 1
145 x 1 x 3
135 x 2 x 3
Military Press
45 x 10
95 x 5
115 x 3
135 x 1
140 x 1
135 x 1 x 3
130 x 2 x 3
125 x 3 x 1
115 x 3 x 2
Deadlift
135 x 8
185 x 5
225 x 3
255 x 1
275 x 1
295 x 1
315 x 1
295 x 1 x 2
275 x 2 x 2
B.U. Squats (just for fun)
115 x 3 x 1
135 x 3 x 2
165 x 2 x 2
185 x 1 x 3
B.U. Squats set from the lowest possible position after deads were not fun.
The bad - cleans felt horrible
The good - Felt stronger on press
Another + point - Equalled my deadlift PR prior to the lay off
End of workout story ... couple of chicks walking out of the gym in front of me talking about getting together on Tuesday ... Chick 1 "We are still getting together on Tuesday". Chick 2 "yeah, tomorrow"
F***ing hits me I went through out the day thinking it was Tuesday when today was Monday. Pretty clear now why there was nobody in the class, and why I was told to come back and meet that chap tomorrow. Also becomes clear why today wasnt the greatest for working out ... should have been a rest day.
Anyway, I will rest and feast tomorrow and carry on from there.
