BODYBUILDING SUPPLEMENTS
High Quality Supplements For Bodybuilders and Athletes. www.ironmaglabs.com
Ok.. Where to start? Some know, some dont. But I had a bout with some bronchitis that turned to pnemonia, and 2 shoulder injuries. Well, here we are almost 16weeks and 15Lbs later and back in the gym.

I will be doing a Upper/Lower routine(thanks P) and working out 3 days a week for now. I will also be doing cardio 2 days a week. It will look like this:
Monday-Upper 1
Tuesday-Traditional cardio(30mins)
Wednesday-Lower
Thursday-off
Friday-Upper 2
Saturday-Cardio(field sprints, or sled dragging)
Sunday-off

Measurements:
Date: 5-23............................9-17

Weight: 196Lbs......................184Lbs

Neck: 17 1/8".........................16 1/4"
Shoulders: 52 1/2"...................51"
Chest: 45"..............................41 1/2"
Biceps: 16".............................15 3/4"
Forearms: 13 5/8"....................12 3/4"
Waist: 33 1/4".........................34 1/4"
Quad(top): 26 1/4"...................24"
Quad(mid): 23 3/4"...................21"
Calves: 15 1/4"........................14 1/2"

I will take bi-weekly measurements, just to see if there is a thing called 'muscle memory'. If so I should be back to my fat happy self in no time

Supplements
Creatine Monohydrate
Whey Protein
Multi
Fish Oil(super)

Overall good workout. I really didnt even want to go back to the gym, because I have been out for so long.. I guess I started to not care. The workout was 'blah' but that was expected. now my biggest task is to stay with it, and be motivated. Oh, and I am already sooo fucking sore

Great news Jake!! All the best!!
Oops just saw your most recent post and decided to edit mine! I meant great news about you going back to gym, not about you not caring any more! We'll be here to motivate you, some will whip your ass too if need be : laugh: but I don't believe you stopped caring, otherwise you wouldn't be still hanging out here on the forum. I believe you still care!

Awesome, I haven't seen any of your workouts because I joined the forum a few months ago, I'll enjoy following everything.

For coming back from a huge break those numbers are great. I bet your numbers will balloon like hell over the weeks.

Workout looked good! i would have throwen the close grps in there as the third thing in the routine so that you didn't do all of that single joint work before you got to them.

damn awesome workout for your first one back!

just keep going and before long - you'll be excited to go to the gym, your measurements will be better than before and it'll be like the last 16 weeks never happened. don't think too far ahead yet - just do the workouts and the progress will come. you know that.



Tomorrow may be the best day of your life.

Or not.

Bout Freaking Time Jake, Now kick some ass.



Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

Nice! Glad to see you're finally back. Good luck bro!
