Im2manly's Journal of Non-B!tchAzzness

[im2manly]

Well I guess it was time to create a journal. I actually won't be lifting till tomorrow afternoon but I wanted to have this bad boy all set up so that I can just post my shit after I do it.

ABOUT ME:
- This is just about the "most out of shape" I have been. Still think I am in decent shape though
- In my college years I was much lighter and a shit load stonger.
- I stopped working out for about a year and just started back into when I joined this site.
- Currently I am comming off a 3 1/2 week Deload (due to exams) so I will take things accordingly.
- My workouts usually end up getting all screwed up because of school and work.

WHAT I PLAN ON DOING IN THIS JOURNAL:
- I am not going to lie, I plan a substantial amount of shit talking.
- To make this my personal rant/safe haven.
- Post pictures of the wimminz (SFW obviously ), interesting videos and articles.
- Workouts, I promise


WORKOUT GOAL:
- My goal is athletics and improving my health.
- I essentially want to be able to do things like this, which I can do but not to the degree I want:

(1) Kneeling Jump Squats like this:



(2) be able to jump out of a pool like this:


- I also want to increase overall athleticism (i.e. vertical, quickness, speed) and health (weight loss (I know) and caridio)

HOW I PLAN TO ACHIEVE THIS:
(1) Cardio (both long distance and sprints)
(2) Athletic exercises (mainly compounds and their weird alterations)
(3) Flexibility training
(4) Plyos
(5) Strenght training
(6) I workout at home so I don't have a power-rack/cage
(7) I do not use belts, gloves, straps, wraps, or chalk of any sort
(8) I also do not really have a spotter
(9) I also only use a rack when I have to (i.e. w/ squats, bench, etc.). So for things such as Military Presses, Front Squats, etc..I will be power cleaning the weight up. Unless things have drastically changed in the last 3 1/2 weeks I definitely can clean more than I military press.
(10) Yes I deload regluarly

My overall goal I guess would be athleticism (although right now I'm focusing on strength) so I'm interested to see how you do things.

Yes, at my size if I couldn't do 405 for reps then I'd be doing something wrong.

Noodz: yes

Progressive pics idk, since I am not going for a BB thing. If I get a videocamera that would make more sense since I just want to improve athletics.

DURATION: 50 Mins.

I CAN EXPLAIN:

Ok well just finished my first day back in a month like 5 mins ago and I was overly ambitious with the volume. I actually took it light on the flat BB as I wanted to ease back into it, but after my D.B. Inclines I was completely done. I am hoping it is just because I took such a long break and not that I have vaginaitis. I was somewhat rushed as I have somewhere to be in 40 mins, but that is still no excuse. After my D.B. inclines I basically just did one exercise for shoulders and two for triceps. I tried the lock outs on the bench but it was causing my a lot of pain in my shoulder so I just said F it. But my body feels like a British prostitute, very well worked and everything so that is a positive. In regards to the soreness, it wasn't a lack of strength type of soreness it was a endurance type of soreness so that is a positive as I should get acclimated to the program shortly and will actually be able to follow my program. My bad boys, I was so excited too...But tomorrow is leg day!
