01/08/2017 legs, gvt style - limited equipment, doing what I can, don't hate.
I did a circuit of hamstring curls and leg extensions with no rest between either of them so I don't even have time to jot down the reps in the notebook. I shoot for 25 on the leg extension and 10 on the hamstring curl.
Leg extension
10 sets 70lbs 25 reps across maybe 5-6 sets rest AMRAP
Leg curl
50lbs 10 sets across maybe 5-6 sets rest AMRAP

Alright, here's the deal. I'm usually scheduled for 3 on 1 off, but I take rests as needed. I can tell when I'm worn done and need a break.Today wasn't going to be that day, but I have a chronic insomnia issue that I have been dealing with for about a decade and a half now and I didn't get a single wink of sleep last night at all, and training on 0 sleep has always made me vomit...So I might not be training today. Maybe if I get a nap in but I don't know if that will happen either. I'm at that point where I get too tired to sleep. We'll take it as it goes.

I feel pretty "strong" after taking such a long hiatus/not paying any attention to my health at all it's nice to see the weights are coming back pretty quick. I'm getting leaner too - I need a camera, for sure - I'll grab it later. Money's tight, not sure if that has been made clear yet. I'm self-employed, weathering out the effects of a pretty bad 2016-2017, getting things to where they need to be.
That's why I'm working out in a condo gym instead of a real gym -- which changes in September, I'll go grab one when I'm done this routine which works nicely because I want to squat and stuff, plus I'm nearly out of weights to use for some of the lifts.
Worst case scenario I could always figure something out, but I want to squat & deadlift soon.
Seeing as I seem to be maintaining weight/putting on a little bit, plus the fact that I feel pretty strong/good in the gym, means I can sacrifice a little bit more food without losing much of the potential mass I might be restoring from muscle memory - it's not like I have any mass anymore now.
I'll probably go to 1500 and see how I feel. I do have a habit of drinking about 800-1600 calories of alcohol a week (in one day). I'm working on that, it's a demon from last year that I'm still exorcising. I've switched from consciously made the switch from beer to spirits, bringing the 1600 down to the lesser 500-800, but yeah, it's a work in progress.Last edited by fatmatth3w; 08-12-2017 at 11:51 AM.

I've decided going forth: 1677, 20c/47f/289p little salty about the fat but it's ok
visually: slight crotch vascularity, no thigh vascularity, abs are in OK shape, visible and sharp serratus, some erector feathering in the back. still a lot of pudge on the triceps thighs and love handle area - not so bad in the glutes
no delt striations - usually means I have a ways to go
I need to pee a LOT with no/vlow cho, I find myself sprinting to public restrooms quite often to not wet myselfLast edited by fatmatth3w; 08-12-2017 at 12:28 PM.

I did calf raises at the end of every giant set just with bodyweight, it wont do much but I wore shorts in the gym today and holy hell do I not want those to get any smaller - looks down right stupid. I'd like to at least stimulate them a little even if it''s doing nonsense. I'd say I'm definitely in the "groove" of the routine. It took 4 weeks to get there. I think for my future programs I will extend it to 9 weeks instead of 7 (both including a week 0 deload) - given that it seems it takes 4 weeks to get into a groove of something. I'm not stretching this to 8(read: 9) weeks because I already have plans to get the september discount at the gym etc etc. Plus I'm itching to hold a barbell. It may be noticeable that I've picked up the ab frequency as well. It's important to me and I'm starting to acclimate to the work loads again, so I feel okay doing the extra exercises.Last edited by fatmatth3w; 08-16-2017 at 08:40 PM.

on the 13th i was 181 from what I predicted to just be a weird fluctuation, and that seems right as I'm sitting at 178.2 right now, .2lbs off of what I was on the 12th but again - I'm not too concerned about that fluctuation either. Weight can be misleading sometimes. I'm pretty sure I'm getting leaner.

174lbs :lol:
my sleep is crappy. Really crappy. Because of that and some other reasons + hibernation on monday I didn't get into the gym until today, and I was too tired to go HAM on the giant sets (last time I did it with less than stellar sleep, I puked everywhere lol)
I just did straight sets, 25/30s rest, tired and lazy:
Incline Db
4 sets, 65x8
4 sets, 45x8
Pullups
4 sets
Barbell Row
4 sets, 105x8
I felt extremely weak and crappy for the reasons mentioned above. Also fri/sat I had pretty much no food, and same again on monday - bad. That's what caused the dramatic weightloss, that and I can't hold any water at all (I pee every 5 seconds, very annoying)
I still have no delt striations but it might be because I have no delts. I'd like to keep going. I don't know if I need to be below 170, I certainly hope not but meh if I need to weigh 150lbs to be shredded so be it, rather have a lean base, and not worry about cutting for...hopefully a long long time after that. I don't like getting fat anymore.

I fell down a flight of stairs in the night time and am pretty banged up, my right quad is kinda locked up and sore, but I mean I only do leg ext/leg curl so we'll see if I can take handle it. I'm growing pretty tired of this routine as you can see and getting antsy to move towards a real gym and use weights (soon) - we'll see how it goes. I haven't quite decided what I'm going to do to rapidly acclimate to barbell movements again, probably 8x8 1 movement per muscle probably
day 1: chest/back/delts day 2 legs/arms
subject to change
probably going to be
8x8 barbell incline
8x8 barell row
8x8 upright row
4x25 crunch machine
4xF leg raises or twisting leg raises for obliques
day 2:
8x8 squat
8x12 hamstring curl
8x8 barbell curl
8x8 decline skullcrusher mayhaps dunno not sure if thats what I want
4x15 standing calf raise
4x15 seated calf raise
^ not liking how this day is looking, looks kinda hard.
again, subject to change. just putting that there for me to have to read back on next week when I make the switch. workload is a little high at 32 sets a workout but it's alright, I'll see how it goes. if I'm not conditioned enough I'll back off a few sets.Last edited by fatmatth3w; 08-24-2017 at 04:37 AM.
