Stats

6'7" 271 pounds to much beer and mexican food

Goals: I need to get back in Basketball shape I like to play like a small forward or shooting guard so I need to lean up to get my quikness and vert back and stay strong so hard fouls taking it to hole don't hurt to much or even better hurt those who try. My lower back is really weak right now so I got to strengthen that so I spend less time at the chiropracter

First time I've ever done this kind of thing should be cool to see the progress. Lot of information and cool people here on Iron Mag think you'll be stuck with me for a while

Posted by: goandykid

Glad to hear. I always wanted to make a journal, I probly will in a few months. I keep track of my own lifts in a workout binder, but moving it onto IM would be nice.

Like I have a printed version of what to do on that set day, but after every workout I pencil in updates on how much weight and if I got more reps out. Either way, online or not, it certainly helps. Keep the progress up, maybe I'll make mine soon.

Posted by: Spud

Quick question, how do you fit onto the bench? It would seem like your ass should be falling off the bench making it very awkward. Do you have a special, elongated version or something?

Posted by: NordicNacho

Sort of a problem

I can't use the decline and incline benches that have the barbell racks. Im to big so I just use the dumbell benches but its sort of weird when your head is off the bench on the declines. Flat bench is fine cause i can just slide down.
thanks for stopping by

Take an adjustable bench and move it to the power rack, then you can put the pins wherever you want them.

Posted by: NordicNacho

Good idea I'll have to try that.

thanks

Just Cardio and Abs today

HIT Cardio

8 sprints of 80 yards on a dirt track. gradually speed up, sprint walk back and then sprint again. First time I've ever done this its a good workout.

abs- working them out on the swiss ball. still sore from yesterday. this what i do on the ball

later

Posted by: goandykid

Swiss ball works wonders. Whats your reg ab routine look like? I jsut go heavy on that curling machine then 3xmax on the swiss ball.

Posted by: NordicNacho

I used to do a bunch of crunches, jackknifes, leg raises. This ball is killing my abs they are not used to it. I've just been doing crunches on it and sitting on it while I watch tv. Im sore all over

I got a bad lower back hopefully with a stonger core I can do deads and not worry about having it go out.

Posted by: camarosuper6

Max OT is a good program. I use it as well.

Good work. Remember to really focus on those heavy compound movements and dont use machines unless you have too.

Good luck.

Posted by: NordicNacho

Thanks for stopping by

I try to use compound movents but it hard whwn you don't have a spotter so i've been using dumbells when i can instead of a barbell.

Chest
Incline Dumbell Bench Press wmup 10-30 10-50 1-80
6-90 0-95 could not get it started

6-90 6-90
Flat barbell Bench Press wmup 10-135 6-205 5-225 First time using the real bench not the smith machine. Barely got the last one up nothing like the fear of embarrassiment to make you get that last one up

decline dumbell press 6-100 the dumbells at my gym only go up to 100 so got to figure something out.

Cardio

HIT 8 sprints 80 yds

abs worked out on the swiss ball. tommorrow is back my fav

Congrast on losing weight!

I don't know what your BF is, but might that be too fast? You don't want to lose muscle along with the fat.

Posted by: goandykid

What too fast?

Posted by: goandykid

How do I subscribe to this or any other thread? Does it just tell me updates on postings?

The weight loss may have been a bit fast. It you're losing more than a pound or two, some of it the weight loss may be muscle.
