Aqweei lifts heavy stuff and shizz

Aqweei · February 19, 2013

Gonna be starting a new daily battle log that I actually keep up with these days instead of putting all my lifting and eating info in my challenge threads. That way I can continue to just link back to this thread and keep a massive log of my lifts.

Starting Pics: Front | Side | Back

Starting Weight: 270

Stronglifts 5x5 starting with the Feb 25- Apr 8 challenge:

Workout A:

Squat: 5 x 5

Bench Press 5 x 5

Inverted Rows: 3 x F

Push-Ups: 3 X 5

Reverse Crunch: 3 X 12

Workout B:

Squat: 5 x 5

Overhead Press: 5 x 5

Deadlift: 1 x 5

Pull Ups/Chin Ups: 3 x F

Prone Bridges; 3 x 30 secs

Another reason I am doing this log is because I would like to hit the 1000lb club on the big 3 lifts this year. (Squat+ Deadlift+ Bench = 1000lbs+) I am hoping to achieve this with the following figures.

Squat- 375
Deadlift- 375
Bench- 250

As long as that total is over 1000lbs I really dont care lol!

Leg press was rough today! Definitely feeling the workout but I am happy with it. I got real good stretch from the work out and made sure to emulate a true squat as best as I could. I loved getting done with this exercise and seeing other guys go up to the leg press machine only to throw more plates on and do a half assed rep. Kudos to you guys for wasting your own time! lol

Aqweei · February 23, 2013

Today was the first day of strong lifts for me. Went well other then my squatting. Probably should have started out a little lighter then I did since I was still a little sore from the leg presses the other day and I havent squatted in quite some time. I didnt struggle with the weight at all. 135 felt easy to push up but on my last rep of my 3rd set something popped where my leg connects to my pelvis. Not quite sure what that was but it is a little bothersome. I tried to do my 4th set afterwards and the pain just continued to increase. Apparently squating and lifting my leg over about a foot causes this pain to continue. I've got some icyhot on it now and fully expect to be back in the gym on monday for my next session of strong lifts.

goodwince · February 27, 2013

Nice! Looking like despite the hip flexor area you're doing great still. Glad you're still going I quit working out for strength when mine happened.

Aqweei · February 28, 2013

Definitely trying to man! I hate going backwards lol. Only had small problems with Squats and Deadlifts for obvious reasons.

goodwince · February 28, 2013

Well I hadn't really started yet.. and I was still try to run a half marathon so that was my main focus. I cut back on most of my training when that happened lol. Just running 3x a week. Glad you don't like going backwards. That's how good habits are born!

Aqweei · February 28, 2013

Makes perfectly good sense. I might run a half marathon one day....... yea probably not ever gonna happen unless I look like I've been carved out of stone and have the endurance of a horse.

goodwince · March 1, 2013

Makes perfectly good sense. I might run a half marathon one day....... yea probably not ever gonna happen unless I look like I've been carved out of stone and have the endurance of a horse.

A good 30% of people I've seen running halfs are not in "carved stone" shape lol.

Aqweei · March 2, 2013

lol those are just the goals I have to meet before I even bother with signing up for one

Today's work out was quick and to the point. Omitted Reverse Crunch and Squats because I want to give my hip flexor plenty of rest of the next 3 days. I really feel like it is very close to healed completely. Dont wanna both it until monday.

Barbell Bench Press:

55 lb x 10 reps (+45 pts)

190 lb x 5 reps (+95 pts)
190 lb x 5 reps (+95 pts)
190 lb x 5 reps (+95 pts)

Body Weight Inverted Row (Let Me Ups):
- 10 reps (+16 pts)
- 9 reps (+14 pts)
- 7 reps (+11 pts)
Push-Up:
- 12 reps (+18 pts)
- 8 reps (+12 pts)
- 8 reps (+12 pts)
The push ups were brutal today but still got a PR on them for this current time around. Will be pretty awesome when I can crank out 20-25 push ups especially after lifting a heavy percentage of weight before it on bench press.

goodwince · March 4, 2013

Nice sets of 5 on bench! So how's the hip?

Aqweei · March 5, 2013

It went from great to worse. Dunno what happened honeslty. I was walking quite alot on Saturday and noticed it was really tender Sunday. I'm hoping that its just like that because I've been babying it. I skipped out on my work out today because it was still sore and because I decided it was more important to spend time on my studies for the big test tomorrow morning. Going to give it a go tomorrow ont he squats and will give you an update!

goodwince · March 5, 2013

I had similar problems with mine.. It's unfortunate.. it'll take some time and patience be extra careful on any lifts on it!

Hip felt pretty good today. Squatting was a tad bit discomforting at times but ironically when I got home getting out of the car was completely pain free for the first time since I injured myself lol. So maybe some active recovery will be a good thing.

goodwince · March 6, 2013

Yes! That's awesome! Glad to hear it! And you definitely should watch it.. pay attention to going light for awhile!

Aqweei · March 8, 2013

Oh yea definitely man. I may bump up to 90lbs tomorrow but definitely gonna keep on going light until I just get really comfortable with lifting again. I'm enjoying box squats at the moment because the step up box I found goes right to the middle of my calf. So thats practically perfect for training myself on where parallel is.

Aqweei · March 8, 2013

Hip felt pretty good today. Still a little tender and I am going to have to slowly work into real squats and not box squats. I noticed when I tried to go down without the box I had a good bit of discomfort. So I just need to keep taking it slow and gradually go into full squats.
