Been a while since I updated, I know. Diet has not been tight enough, and I have been deloading.
Working on the diet consistency. Read this for now. |

You're awesome, and I'd like to be as awesome as you.
As a person who has never dead lifted in their life, where should I start? The apartment complex I live at has a decent gym here. If needs be, I can take a couple pics and post what we've got. I'd rather go about this free, if I can. Otherwise, I will look into joining this gym. |

>sniff< so proud... >sniff<
take some pics and send to me or post them up. As to the one you linked, I am hesitant of any place that prominently features smith machines in their site pics or advertising. ETA: though I do see what look to be power racks and a safety squat bar... Hmmmm... I'll have to check again when I am not posting from my phone. where in TX are you? |

Call Sean Donnegan. I can PM you his phone number. He's a close friend of Jim Wendler. His team currently works out at the Metroflex over in Plano. I believe it's off 15th and 75.
They used to have a gym that was over near the one you linked but I don't think they use it anymore. I called him and asked about lifting with his group. Unfortunately the timing just didn't work. I couldn't guarantee that I could be there 3 nights a week. He's a really nice guy and he offered to watch me squat for free in order to critique my form. Anyway, my point, if you're looking to start he could probably watch you and give you some tips and pointers to get you started right. |

No barbell or plates in sight. Free weights and assisted machines though.
No pics as there was a guy working out and he didn't seem too kindly. |

Minor training update
Weight holding steady in the neighborhood of 255 |
|
[#25]
Bummer about the gym, looked like it would be about perfect.
As to the leg, take the time to heal up right and you'll be right as rain in no time. Remember, it's a marathon, not a sprint. AND squat more. |

View Quote All the Internets ever for Best Use of Gifs in a Blog goes to ......... Hank. Something else you touched on: Infrequent deadlifting. I have also found that I can basically just look at the bar for 1-2 workouts at a time and put pounds on it the next time. Its quite lovely really. |

It is an odd thing, to a degree, but at least in my training I do a lot of posterior chain work, so it makes some sense.
A2A, ME squat yesterday, good times. Weight this morning was 255.2 |

[#32]

Hank would you explain the chains to me?
I mean, I know they add weight but why chains and not just more plates ? I've seen a lot of people using them and I'm curious as to why. Thanks |

[#39]
Use of bands and chains is referred to as "accommodating resistance"- the weight being least at the bottom and greatest at the top, it forces you to maintain or accelerate your lift throughout, theoretically forcing you to be more explosive through the range of motion.

Pain in my hips and hamstrings, mainly.
Thinking about testing squat in my next DE squat day. Maybe bench and DL as well. Would be interested to see where I am on all of them. |

Alright, let's get reacquainted.
Firing it back up, time to get serious about the diet and get some good base training underway. As to methods being used, I am perusing the Renaissance Diet and the Juggernaut Method. I don't claim to have the best, most thorough understanding of either as I am still reading through them, but I have culled what I believe are some of the general principles or the high level concepts. I am running with those for now and as I read more and gain a more thorough understanding of them, I will keep sharpening the axe, so to speak. One of the biggest things I will be working on, from a diet standpoint, is honing the macro balance to more closely match the Renn Diet recommendations, as I know I am not currently in line with them and probably won't be for a minute. Goals are pretty open at this point, but the long term diet goal is to get under 220lbs bodyweight without letting the lifting suffer. No real time frame there except to try to get there in the next six months or so. Lifting goal is much broader than even that, currently only working on rebuilding my base strength and honing technique in the big three lifts. Juggernaut appears to be good for that with the higher rep work built in, so that's what we'll roll for right now. Also trying to get back into the habit of early morning lifting. Yay. So without further ado... let's roll. DAY 03-01 Tuesday, 28 October 2014 Morning weight: 253.6 Preworkout: shake with one scoop Musclepharm Combat and a caffeine tablet Periworkout: water Lift: Squat - 8s 5r @ 210lbs, 3 @ 210lbs (tweaked/cramped right quad on last set, will repeat the 10 cycle next week) X walk with red band - 5x10 each direction Sled drag - 10 x 25yd w/3 plates Postworkout: shake with two scoops Musclepharm Combat and 11oz milk in about 8oz brewed coffee Breakfast: the above stuffs Lunch: six eggs fried in a T of butter over about 6.5oz green peas over 8oz white rice with soy sauce. 12oz milk on the side, a serving of pretzel chips. Dinner: small pepperoni pizza with onion and black olive Snack: banana, two scoops Combat in water KCals: 3014 Protein (g): 236 Fat (g): 93 Carbs (g): 293 |
