Arigh Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I still exist! I've been lazy and not recording things, though I've still been going to the gym. My schedule has boiled down to work -> FSAE -> Gym -> Sleep for the last few weeks, and it's a crap schedule. The morning exercise thing just didn't work, but I know for a fact that my lifts suffer when they're late at night. Oh well! 5/8/2012Bench135x10185x5225x3245x3Pull Ups105@+105@+254@+60Dumbbell Rows3x10@70,80,90Neutral Grip Face Pulls3x10@120Dumbbell Curls10@30,35Weird lateral raise shrug things3x15@10 Quote Link to comment

Arigh Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 5/9/2012Hate myself day (Squat day)Squats135x10225x53x20@225Tons of dizziness and head rushes. 20 rep programs make me dizzy and miserable, but I figure it's a good way to keep it at a low weight with good form and still get stronger. Depth was good, form was good. I just had to lay on the floor for a few minutes to make the dizziness and nausea go away.

Arigh Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 245 Bench!!! Beast! Glad to see you're still kicking itI think if nothing else you should log your FSAE progress Definitely still kicking it, can't stop!As far as FSAE, I actually took a week off work on no notice to accompany our Formula Hybrid to their competition and help them out, we ended up placing third and being one of the only teams to make it through tech inspection and run in endurance. This was pretty surprising considering the entire Hybrid team is made up of about 8 people from 2 senior design groups with no experience. Whole lot of breaking things, then Frankensteining it back together, they were damn impressive. I can't take any credit, I was just another set of hands to help out. Quote Link to comment

Going to have to think about including grip work with grippers or farmer walks. Curls3x10@35,40,40Planks3x60 secondsSkipped side planks, will make up later.Side Planks3x30 secondsWoke up at 7 am and couldn't go back to sleep, so I went to the gym. Was surprisingly nice going to the gym in the morning, and I wasn't tired at all. I liked it. Not sure if I could do this regularly, but I feel like I do lift better in the morning or early afternoon. Also won't be updating regularly because I'm lazy, but they'll come in every once in a while. Been missing days due to long nights at the shop, sort of crappy, but would rather work on race car than go to the gym. Quote Link to comment
katscratch Posted May 27, 2012 Report Share Posted May 27, 2012 Those deadlift numbers are positively beastly. By the way. 5/27/12would rather work on race car than go to the gym....since I would rather read about working on race cars than going to the gym, I do not disapprove. Ha. Quote Link to comment

Arigh Posted June 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 6/12/12 What day is it? Where am I? Oh, squat day.Haven't done a heavy set of squats in a long while, over a month. It was unfamiliar, and I lost a fair bit of strength methinks.Squats135x10, 225x5, 275x5, 315x5, 335x5225x10Was going to do 3x20@225 after, but I would have passed out and dropped something on my head. Leg Curls90x10, 120x10, 140x10Leg Extensions120x10, 140x10, 160x10Weak day, wasn't that great, but I can't complain considering I skipped the gym 2+ weeks, and I haven't done legs in forever. As far as FSAE goes, I've done nothing but be down at the shop. My schedule has lost the gym portion and become: 1. Work 2. Shop 3. Sleep, then it repeats. Every day. Except weekends, where it's just: 1. Shop 2. Shop 3. Shop. No sleep needed. Competition is next week, and I'll actually put up some pictures during/after that. That, or just link to the facebook albums that I'll be making. Today was a rare day, where I took a break to breathe and go to the gym. Quote Link to comment
Arigh Posted June 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 Car's done! And we're back. And I can start working out again, rather than eating fast food and scrambling to build a car. I did go to the gym, but it was depressing, so I'm not going to talk about it. (Deadlifted 335x5, which felt immensely hard. Stopped there and planning on working back up) Quote Link to comment
Arigh Posted June 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2012 6/30/12Shoulders DayOverhead Press95x10, 115x10, 135x8, 115x9, 95x10I haven't done shoulders in so long, I'm amazed I was able to do that. Side Lateral Raises3x10@25, 20, 20Front Lateral Raises3x10@25, 20, 20Should have started with 20, 25 is a bit too much, but I was too stubborn to put it down. Next week, I'm starting cardio. I've said it a million times, but now I have some motivation to do it: My brother is starting to get abs. And you know what, screw him! I want abs too! So I'm going to try to control my diet a bit better, go back to a paleo diet and do some cardio. We'll see how this turns out. I don't really have anything against my brother getting into better shape, but sibling rivalry can't be helped. Quote Link to comment
