I don't know exactly where to post this, so I guess this place is as good as any. Hopefully for the next few months I can help keep this updated. For the past 6-7 months I have been dogging it with my training and nutrition, basically from depression, but that is a whole other story. However my motivation is back and I am ready to get back in the game. My background: I will turn 33 this August 19(where does the time go), I have been training seriously for eight years, smartly for five. This post I will put down last weeks entire training. In the future I will try to post daily if time permits. I do not know if anyone will find this the least bit interesting, but hopefully someone can learn something from it. I will be glad to answer any questions about what I am doing and why I do certain things. So here goes:
8/3/03 Quads/hams

So there is last weeks workouts. On mosts exercises I started out light since I took the preceding week off. Right now I am as strong as I have ever been and I believe I owe that to the diet I am following right now, which I will post later. I will also post todays leg workout. SEE YA!!!!!!!!!!

Hi dreamweaver. I'd like to invite you to the "over 35" group. You're close enough. LOL
There's some really experienced people there with years of training under their belt and plenty of mistakes made along the way. Many of us have dealt with or are dealing with issues like depression as well.
Most of us keep some kind of log over there for our training and feedback from others. So if you get a chance, head on over and say hi.
