Welcome - This is my training log. I will be updating my body stats and training goals from time to time.

Workouts will be added as they come starting today.

The purpose of this thread is to keep all my training sessions logged in one place, maybe motivate another person to go ahead with their plans and keep learning myself.

*pound information in this thread is an estimate and just for ease of reading.
*Should you find glaring programming or form mistakes or have any valid and informed critique, please feel free to share it with me!

Starting weight today: 98 KG/216 lbs (4.4.25)
Height: 187 cm/6' 2"


Training goals for the next months:
- gaining body weight up to 105 KG/232 lbs slowly
- keep gaining strength in flat barbell bench press, weighted chin-ups, weighted dips, military shoulder press, deadlifts
- increase lower body mobility
- increase grip strength and endurance
- increase rucking times (weighted marches, at least 25% bodyweight) -> goal: 35 kg/77 lbs on my back for 6.5 km/4 miles in under 60 minutes.
- do not get hurt.

Easing back into training. The virus I got was much more aggressive than I thought, so I had to rest for a whole week and was fighting diarrhea daily. Got it under control now, food is digesting almost normally, getting back into eating and upping my calories slowly back to my usual 4500-5000 daily.

Yeeeeeee baby! Aint no stopping this train. We going until the breaks fly off!

way to go bro
your upper back is jacked

Thanks! Putting extra emphasis on shrugging weights in the top portion of the lift really makes a big difference in back hypertrophy for me. Neglected that part of the movement because I tried training as clean as I can, full range of motio but no body english at all. Always felt like throwing weights or cheating, but gotta move the big weights to get big slabs of meat on ya!

Welcome to the Logs. Looking Jacked AF, bro.

Thanks, bro. Looking stronger than I am sadly. Lots of show muscle I gas out quick and strength is not where it should be, but I'll be closer where I want to be in a year!

CONDITIONING (30/10/24)

WARM UP

SINGLE LEG RDL (Added this for balance, coordination and unilateral hip/gluteus work. Doing them for the first time, balancing was the biggest issue and definitely feels like a limiting factor. Will stick with them for at least a month and see how I progress)
45 kg/100 lbs (22.5 kg per arm) for 15
35 kg/77 lbs for 12
30 kg/66 lbs for 10

BARBELL OVERHEAD CARRY
70 kg/155 lbs: 4 x 20 m/65 feet

TRAP BAR FARMER WALK
135 kg/300 lbs: 3 x 40 m/130 feet

KETTLE BELL SWINGS
28 kg/60 lbs: 8 reps, 12 s rest for 10 rounds (e.g.: I start with 6 rounds and add a round per week until I do 12 rounds. Afterwards I either reduce rest between rounds OR increase weight and reduce the rounds and work back up)

BARBELL COMPLEX (6 reps per exercise SQUAT,LUNGE,OHP,ROW,RDL. All exercises are done back to back without putting down the barbell, afterwards 20 s rest and then another round of the barbell complex. I try getting as many rounds as I can within 3 minutes. Either increase weight per week or get more rounds than last time)

Dont want to bore anyone with my excuses, but life got in the way. Death in the family and had to under go two surgeries.... Last surgery was 4 weeks and 2 days ago, but been easing back into my training against Doctor's advice, because its spring so fuck em.

Gained some weight and grew an inch. Strength has surely suffered but cant hoist any big weights for now, so we will see where the next few weeks of pump training (TUT focus, keeping the tension on the muscle at all times, no lockouts) will take me.

New pictures in a few weeks.

@Trabaho Ye.... theres only so many "good" gyms and most are not franchises. I cant be arsed to commute the extra 2 h every day so I just go to the closest gym franchise I can find.

Wow he's back. To me all the gyms in Germany are good. They all are bigger and better than what we have in Herzegowina. Cool that you're back, I thought you quit sherdog for good.
