Gonna Do This!
OK. Putting a new workout together. Monday is the day this punk gets his act together with a CONSISTENT workout. My initial thoughts are a 3 day per week, full body workout for the first three weeks. Then, stopping to re-assess. Everyone who has visited my bodyspace page has seen one things missing..... progress pics! Gonna snap a new before shot.
Next, diet. Really hard for me to focus on diet. My wife is an AMAZING cook and she loves baking... Gotta realize it is all things in moderation.

Good luck to you!  Congrats on having a wife that is an amazing cook! Maybe you could challenge her to come up with some creative healthy recipes for you!

It is a mixed blessing. Always good food, but, man the pies, cakes, cookies... it is a challenge to eat a little of that stuff and not go crazy.

Thanks Hib. And, yeah, a healthy-cooking-challenge. I may need to fire up the grill some more. :-)
My gym bag is packed, the workout is printed. Monday is the day to get rolling with the new workout(out of town this weekend). Have always been hit/miss before. Solid for for three months, slack for a couple of weeks, then back to it for about three months. Wanna keep the fire burning this time.

Yeah, for the first three weeks only, just to get in the groove. Only doing the squats/deads heavy only one of the three days, lite the other two workouts.
I'm open to thoughts on the plan.

Thanks man.
As fate would have it, I am sick as a dog so the workout didn't happen today as planned. This puppy is down, but not out. The gym back is packed and ready to go.

Finally, after three months of not getting my arse to the gym for one reason for another, I got in there today. Realized my intended workout was too long. I wanted to keep it at or under 55 minutes so I had to drop a few lifts from the list. Also, I am weak. I've always been the tall, skinny, weak punk. Dang. But, I'm gonna post my numbers here anyway and to heck with the jeers.
SL Deadlifts - 135 X 6 X 2
Leg Press Calve Raises -180 X 20 X 2 + 10 X-Reps
Squats 225 X 6 X 2
V-handle PullDowns - 70 X 8 X 2 + 6 X-Reps
Chest-Supported Rows 60 X 8, 80 X 8 + 6-X-Reps
Decline Bench - 135 X 6 X 8
DB Upright Rows - 25 X 8 X 2
Shoulder Press 30 X 8 X 2
DB Incline Hammers Curls 25 X 8 X 2
BB Curls 8 X 2
Those numbers can only go up. Growth is what I am after, and a few inches of deep gut fat gone.
