Rookiebeotch Posted January 2, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2015 1/187 minutes. 30 hour fast. Late workout. My second heavy squat session since finishing my rack. Abs and legs still sore from 4 days ago. Achieved sufficient extra reps to add weight to next squat. The 142.5 OHP load is getting easier. Considering moving wide grip pull ups to straight bar but keeping chins on rings. Need to research upright rows now that I'm doing them heavy.Lowbar Squat 5x135, 5x5x185 (last two sets +1 and +2 reps) OHP 5x135, 4x5x142.5Pull Ups 5xbw, 4x5x30Chin Ups 5x5x30UprightRow 5x5x142.5I had a boring New Years Eve and Day. That's what I deserve for being too cowardly to chase after girls. At least I finally installed my 512GB SSD and moved a ton of games to it, including some new ones. I started playing Shadow of Mordor. That's the reason for my late workout. Quote Current Challenge March 2016 Second Challenge First challenge, Battle Log Link to comment

Rookiebeotch Posted January 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 1/3 Saturday. 141 minutes. 29hr fast. Subbed 1 DL/PushUp superset for 5 sets of pullups supered with the OHP/upright rows. Severe weather knocked out power in my neighborhood Friday night. Still out. Moonlight workout! No music, I left my phone power pack at work. Candlelight dinner with a can of tuna as my date.

Wasn't feeling DL, but I know I could have gotten extra reps. I blame weird sleep and weird food from power outage. I need to keep on top of my rest times. It's starting to slip again.

Rookiebeotch Posted January 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 I need to make a dip setup in my home gym. Triceps are my glaring weakpoint for bench press. Thinking safety cord and pvc pipe to make low hang rings off my pullup bar. With proper height, it can do inverted rows and pectoral work.

Rookiebeotch Posted January 7, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 7, 2015 96 minutes. Squat pacing is great. Once the dip belt goes on, pacing falls apart. First workout at 190 squats. Last workout at 190 squats... moving on to 195. OHP @142.5 is feeling stronger by very small increments each workout. Moved chins to straight bar with pull ups. Roasting the old ham bone and baking yams I found. Lowbar Squat 5x135, 5x5x190 (last two sets +2 and +3 reps) OHP 5x135, 4x5x142.5Pull Ups 5xbw, 4x5x30Chin Ups 5x5x30UprightRow 5x5x142.5 The yams are now gone. The ham bone is sitting with a bunch of chicken soaking in chili marinade. It will go in the slowcooker Thursday morning. Hambone and shredded chicken chili! I aimed it at super fucking spicy. We will see how it goes. Quote Current Challenge March 2016 Second Challenge First challenge, Battle Log Link to comment

Rookiebeotch Posted January 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2015 I'm a bit fired up tonight. I wish it wasn't a rest day. I asked girl out. She decided to already have a boyfriend. Its not the outcome I had hoped for, but it's not like I will spend a thousand lifetimes mourning the loss of what could have been. More than anything, I am feeling good that I had the balls to at least go that far. I usually don't. But now I have all this energy wanting to get out. It's a mix of frustration, arrogance, ego, adventurousness, and eagerness to prove and improve myself. It not really bad, just very volatile energy that needs to be utilized.I hope I still burn tomorrow. I will use it. 1 Quote Current Challenge March 2016 Second Challenge First challenge, Battle Log Link to comment

Ease up on rest day stretching.I need to do better at restricting rest day calories and Pre workout calories.Once I stall on squats, I will reincorporate rotations of 3rep days and 5/3/1 days, and soon after make every workout day a carb day.I'm thinking something like Sun A 4x3Tue B 4x5Thu A 5/3/1Sat A+B 5x8Sun B 4x3Tue A 4x5Thu B 5/3/1Sat A+B 5x8Sun A 4x3Tue B 4x5Thu A 4x5Sat A+B 5x8Sun B 4x3Tue A 4x5Thu B 4x5Sat A+B 5x8This will give me a chance to test working 1rm on every big lifts once a month. 3/8ths of all workouts will be focused on 5rep, 1/4th on 3rep, and 1/4 on form and endurance work.

Rookiebeotch Posted January 28, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2015 This weekend was really off for me. Unwilling to focus on workouts, insomnia, and stomach issues due to insomnia.
