A new journal (Heavy/Medium/Other)

[Rocco32]

We'll see how it goes today Good to see a new person in here



I'll check out your journal Monstar ...


I did Push/Pull/Legs for a long time so I was looking to try something new. I'll modify something for this week. I normally only have to worry about not doing Legs on Sunday since I play football on Monday but I have a tournament this Saturday (3 Games) and Sunday (hopefully 3 Games) then a game on Monday. I might just skip arms this week.

Pullups 1 set 10 reps/dropset - bw +45

HS Incline Press 1 set 10 reps - 220
Upright Row 1 set 12 reps - 125
Seated Calf Raises 1 set 20 reps ??? 180
Weighted Chins 1 set 6 reps - bw +55/dropset

Tuesday - We'll see about a new HIT program (this will give me all week to figure something out) I'll check out a couple of the HIT journals to get some good ideas...

Sounds intense! Let me know how your HIT research goes I'm still trying to figure out what's best for me.

I didnt jump on the Westside, or the p/rr/s, so I dont think I will hop onto HIT

Awwww, but you did jump onto TP's PT.

 

[yellowmoomba]

I felt better about doing only one set by including the dropsets. I was definately worn out at the end. I'll probably switch things up next week a bit and try a three day rotation. Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday. We'll see how my strength progresses (that's the REAL test).

Killer workout man....

I feel pretty good today. My lower back is a bit sore but nothing to major. I definately feel like a got a good workout yesterday. I'm looking forward to Thursday's workout.

I changed my diet around a few weeks ago. I cut out about 500-700 cals a day - so I'm taking in roughly 2600 cals. I weighed in at 185.5 today (and yesterday). That's the lowest it's been since mid August. Three weeks ago I was at 190. I'm not TOO concerned with my weight but rather my WAIST which was down a 1/2 inch from last week (34").

Your starting another program? Why not continue on with HIT?

I'm not starting a new program I was just testing some different programs this week. I haven't hammered down what I want to do for HIT as far as what exercises to do. I could only schedule two workout days this week because I want to be rested for my tournament this weekend.

Ahh.. ok. I read this wrong.

 

[yellowmoomba]

Ahh.. ok. I read this wrong.

This is my first week of HIT. I had to hit all my exercises in two days rather than three.

What are you doing these days as far a lifting goes ?? I looked at your journal this morning. I see a lot of

I'm enjoying my day off in between every workout.

Football tournament

There were 16 teams in the tournament. We went 3 - 0 on Saturday and were the 3rd seed out of eight in a single elimination bracket on Sunday. We ended up laying an egg in our first game on Sunday and losing to a team that we beat yesterday. We did everything wrong.

I pulled my groin a bit on my left side so I just iced and hot tubbed and iced again. Time or some Ibuprophen. We have a 11PM league game tomorrrow - then it's back to the gym on Tuesday.

 

[JerseyDevil]

Best of luck man. Go kick their butt!

11/16/04

We had a league game last night. Only 7 of our 11 guys showed up (4 got injured over the weekend during our tournament). A couple guys that showed up were a little banged up too but we rolled to a 48 - 6 win. Not much competition tonight.

Oh well......Back to the gym today. I weighed in a 186 this morning. My diet has been pretty good. 1 or 2 cheat meals per week and lots of protein shakes.
