Thought I'd stick up a log, I've a fairly detailed account kept on my laptop as it is but putting it in the public domain can only serve to motivate me further I guess.
I started somewhat serious training on the 24th April, I was 5'9''(at a push) and just over 86kg.
I started with cardio, and a small bit of weights. Mainly 4 and 8k runs with some upper body work mixed in. It worked to an extent.
I bought a squat rack, to add to my bench, late May and set about it.
Right now, Im 76kg. So pretty average. In fact, somewhat below average.
Currently(the past 8 days), I've been rising at 6am most mornings and have split my training in 2. Mornings are bodyweight work, Hiit kinda stuff. While evenings after work are lifting heavy every second day. Every other day I'm out for a 6am run and the in the evenings have either rugby or soccer training. Games both Sat and Suns.
Effectively training every day and so far, I'm not feeling the effects of overtraining, long may it last.
Currently i.e. as of today: My lifts are as follows.
6am:
Super sets or Pull ups/Push ups/BodyWeight Squats. 3 sets.
Failure on the first two and 50 squats.
8pm:
Bench: 72kg. 3x8
Standing Shoulder Press: 46.5kg 3x8
Bent over Rows: 70kg 3x8
Squat: 82kg 3x8
Deadlift(didnt actually do it today as Im fond of walking): 86kg
My diet(always my let down):
6am:
3 Rashers(then workout)
2 Eggs.
11am:
Coffee with some Milk
1pm:
Breaded Chicken Breast with 500ml Supermilk.
4pm:
Cup of Sultanas
7pm:
2 Salmon Darnes, Tablespoon of wholegrain rice and small scoop of sweetcorn.
(workout)
8:40pm:
Scoop and a bit of ON Whey w/ water.
