Quick log for chest day, it was effective. Ran into an issue again today with people offering aid, this time on the bench press. I don’t generally accept assistance unless I’m having a serious issue, I believe learning to fail is an important part of being safe. That said though, I do visibly press my […]

Quick log for chest day, had a fun time and an effective workout. Again, standard warmups done before every set listed. Flat Bench Press: Going with a different strategy today. I know that my max press last week was rough on me and that I didn’t see myself doing it again, so instead I wanted […]

Finally got back to the gym, the weather is still awful but the roads were fine this evening so it was time to play catchup. It wasn’t just me though, it was everyone at the gym including all the newbies with New Year’s Resolutions. Our gym is too packed to really want more people involved. […]

Sunday was a rest day, the deadlifts really took the wind out of me, so I needed a day to relax and grow. Like last time, chest day was a little under a time constraint due to wanting to hit up yoga class afterwards. I felt like I did a good job, but you can […]

Quick log for yesterday’s chest day. This log will be short as the timeframe to get my chest workout done was limited (basically an hour). That’s okay though… I’m trying to make my workouts hard and shorter, I think workouts like these will hit my natural growth sweet spot better than the longer workouts I’ve […]

You know sometimes when you decide to take on challenges, only to realize it wasn’t worth it? That was what my workout day was like today. I wanted to stay inside today, screw going outside to drive to the gym. I have limited equipment and workspace here in my room at home to work out, […]

Tonight I had a lengthy workout that was really demanding, and I figured I’d log it and try to keep the log simple. It has me re-evaluating the depth of my workout scope because my chest & shoulder day actually had 44 different sets of exercises, NOT including warmups and the different sets on superset […]

Another quick log of today’s chest & shoulder workout. Seriously it’ll be quick, I’m not planning to syndicate this post despite how pumped I am to add to my max bench press. After warmups I went straight to an inclined bench. 5 sets moderate weight (8 @ 95lbs, 5 @ 115lbs, 5 @ 125lbs, 5 […]

Quick log of tonight’s workout, first day back in three days so most of tonight was just shaking off the dust. Resuming my cycle today was chest & shoulder day, going to keep this one short and sweet (if I can avoid the conventional tangents and video links)… just for the books. Workout day was […]
