Started out today with a fun trip up One Oxford Center at a fundraising stair climb for the American Lung Association. I definitely used my lungs (and legs) to get me up 897 steps in 9:47, which I think is pretty good for a first timer. I however could’ve done better if I had listened […]

Today I had a fantastic run through Frick Park, one of the first days in a while it was nice enough to run outside. It was a horrible pace but I knocked out 3.45 miles. Then after that, did some bouldering! Not really a documentable workout but still great fun. Within several climbs my forearms […]

Catching up on posting my workout logs. Today was arm day, so this log will be short and sweet for personal records. For anyone curious while I did not follow the workout to the “T”, I did try Scott Herman’s “Tricked out Triceps” workout and it worked real good. My triceps felt like cotton candy […]

I’m very backlogged on workout writeups, but had a fun and productive week. This week was a St. Patty’s day leg workout. Unlike most, I wasn’t just working to burn off calories to justify beer binging, this is one holiday I felt good staying out of. Rocking the luck of the Hyrulians in the gym […]

Quick log for leg day. Was low energy today but somehow pulled it out… daylight savings plus sleeping in late to adjust the sleep schedule for an overnight shift = low pep. Hit a difficult spot on front squats though, which sucked. Front Squat: Tried my best to go for a new max since I […]

Okay, still in a rush to post backlogs so keeping this short. This back workout was real effective honestly I could’ve cut 1-2 exercises out. Never go sit in gym bleachers for nearly 4 hours after a workout like this, your back will not be happy. Deadlifts: Set 1) 5 reps @ 235lbs. Set 2) […]

After a rest day, still had the sore shoulder but it came out okay from arm day, I decided after reviewing notes from last week that dev day needed some traps and core work. I also wanted to do some sumo deadlifts to prep myself for the next day of deadlifting. Traps were something I […]

Quick log for today’s chest day. Felt like the workout was real good, and feeling now my workout attitude is more focused on solid reps. I had a troublesome issue with my right shoulder the entire day, as mentioned I was feeling unusual recruitment of it in presses and curls and I’ve been doing some […]

Today was back day, I was optimistic the workout would be great but it really wasn’t. It was rough. One rant I want to lay down while I’m writing this log up is that I’m definitely trying to change some of my perspectives on the level of work I’m putting in compared to results. I […]

Okay another quick recap trying to bang these out so this is purely for the record books. Today was leg day. Front Squat: 1. 5 reps @ 135lbs. 2. 5 reps @ 145lbs. 3. 5 reps @ 155lbs. 4. 1 rep @ 165lbs, poor form. Failed 3x to get that rep. Felt like I didn’t […]
