I decided I better start a regular log. I've logged before, but only when trying out a product or being in a contest. I haven't logged otherwise. I think I avoided logging when I was off cycle because the results are not as fun. One thing is clear, I do better when I'm logging. My workouts stay good no matter what, but my diet is what suffers. Plus the more I think about working out, the more healthy choices I make. My goals are simple, less fat, more muscle, and more strength. Easy right?

I'll post more stats later after I take some measurements.
Yesterday’s workout:
Bench Press:
Warm up: 135lbsx10, 225lbsx10
Work out 5x5 at 315lbs
Last set for fun: 225lbsx12
Dips:
25, 20, 15
Triceps pushdowns:
I have no idea how much the unmarked weights in the stack weigh. I don't really care, but I can't add a weight.
All sets were heavy enough that they were difficult to complete. I increased weight each set.
8-5-5
Hammer Strength incline
225 3x8
Dumbbell flys
70lbs 4x6
Today:
Today wasn't a great workout. I've been trying to do legs for a few days but the gym only has two squat racks. Today they were full of people doing curls and upright rows. I'll do legs tomorrow, when I have more time and no one is there on a Saturday morning. I didn't really have any muscle groups I wanted to hit today, so I did shoulders. I've rarely done shoulders over the last year because when I'm not on anything my anterior delt never seemed to recover. It would kill my chest workouts as well as shoulder.*
Hammer Strength press:
90lbs x 20
180lbs x 15
270lbs*3x8
Reverse Flys
90lbs x 10
120lbs 4x6
Lateral raises
I was really weak here and could tell I hadn’t done them in awhile
30lbs 3x8
Bent lat raises
50lbs 3x8
Arnold Presses
60lbs 4x
On a side note, when I registered for this site I just wanted to look around an couldn’t find a username that wasn’t taken. So then I came up with the dumbass name* I have just because I knew it would work. I hate it. If I would have only known I was going to do much more than look.
