Some background information.
- I started to go to the gym on May 26th 2010
- I basically lifted with bad form and no diet in 2010
- The start of this year, I took lifting seriously and did more extensive research
- I learnt proper form and how to diet correctly.
- Personally, I'd rather say I've been lifting for 6-7 months due to lack of knowledge
- This year I've been using a proper routine.
Mon: Chest/Tris
Wed: Back/Bis
Fri: Legs/Delts
- I want to start starting strength due to some of my mates are doing SS and are gaining serious gains. yes, jelly. yes, mad.
Current Stats
Age: 17 (28/04/1994)
Weight: 78kg/172 pounds
Height: 183cm/6'0"
BF: N/A not sure I'm assuming 20
Oh, I hate legs but hopefully I'll learn to enjoy it during SS LOL and I have pretty weak shoulders looking forward to dat dere strength!
I also have a problem squatting! I can't seem to squat with the bar straight :S it's it's like / on my back instead of | I'm thinking it's due to my abdominals. The only way I can seem to make it straight is if I focus on it rather than focus on my legs pushing the weight back up feelsbadman.jpeg
Anyone who's reading my log, good luck with your fitness goals!!

I started with Workout B today, the reason why was to start with a friend, Randy. He has done SS and I'm just a beginner trying to learn
Workout B -
Squats - 3x5 - 65kg Push Press - 3x5 - 32.5kg Power Cleans - 30kg I've been trying to learn it lol so I basically did like 6-7 sets and probably like 6-8 reps(first time doing it, if it isn't obvious already)
I hate starting low, but I'll eventually build up and surpass it! I'm really keen on building strength
Yes, this was yesterday workout! I was suppose to create a log yesterday but forgot

I'm pretty happy how SS is going so far, I'm looking forward to serious gains!! I'm kinda tired due to get insufficient sleep but my lift werent ruined :') I basically had a cheat meal today so I guess that's why I felt good

I'm still trying to gain better form for my power cleans, I didn't record it cause it wasn't decent at all. It was a pretty good day, I was pumped after missing out Monday session.

Today's session.. **** I pulled something near my left knee after I finished my first set. I think I accidently jerked my left knee. I went to do my second set and after the first rep I cringed so I stop completely. I tried just doing bodyweight squats and that ****ing hurt. Feelsbadman.jpeg I was excited for legs for some reason, I feel as if I cheated myself might visit the gym tomorrow if my knee is better.
Deadlift
20kg - 2x5 (This sh!t hurt like a mofo.. the bar was all the way to the floor, couldn't squat pass parallel...)
45kg - 1x3
65kg - 1x2
100kg - 1x5
I hope my knee gets better tomorrow.. it doesn't hurt when I walk only when I squat pass parallel.

good work. on your deadlifts you kinda have same trouble on form i did just not as bad as mine lol. looks like you start kicking up your hips first, focus on driving up with your legs and make sure your hips and knees lock out at same time as it looks like from what i saw your knees are locking just before hips.
also forgot to mention this aurio, when deadlifting keep it tight beforehand, your seems tight at the start ( back arched, etc ) but when you start to pull it can loosen up.

Fuark, took 3 scoops of Jack3d yesterday.. feltbadman.jpeg probably the most ****ed up feelings I've ever experienced srs. Wednesday had an excursion got sick the next morning stomach ache, headspins, sore throat and blocked nose. Friday, felt a bit better went to the gym since I missed out on monday. Felt good doing squats, sort went down hill after shoulder pressing and i managed 1 set of pc before I felt like fainting, I went home straight after sitting down for a bit after that ****ing first set.
Power Cleans
20kg - 2x5 (started feeling light headed after putting down the bar after each clean)
30kg - 2x5 42.5kg - 1x3
Lesson learnt.. never working out again when I'm sick and taking jack3d was just an absolutely stupid idea, didn't work and made me dehydrated as ****... had a bad experience with 1MR and same thing with jack3d fuu..

Didn't post! On 22nd was busy! From what I remember it was a good day, I felt squats were light and not hard as expected LOL. My shoulders are weak as ****, I'm feeling 40kg.. I hope to push to 50kg before resetting. Still working on form with PC FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUv
Yesterday, was a good day to workout. I felt ****ing strong as ****. Squats were easier than expected. My bench is decent, I can't wait to push to 80kg+ ! My deadlift were pretty good today I managed to pull 125kg but my last rep my back was slightly rounded.. no vid on d/l one of the trainers caught us recording.. oh wells.
Heading to the gym TOMORROW!!

I'm actually taking a week off training this week. I do miss the gym though but I'm cramped up with assignments and I think resting this week will do me some good

Finally got to train yesterday!!!!!!!! I added additional workouts from my horrible diet past few days.. LOL I ate 1/3 of a jack pack (2 whoppers, large fries, medium onion rings, 2 sundaes, 2 small drinks(refillable)) that was on a saturday night, the next morning i ate pho(a bowl and a half) I ended up doing my Workout B, ab work, 15-20min cardio and went in sauna for the first time in a few months LOL i think i'm going to start going again.
