So, this is my first workout log shared publicly. I do track my workouts and now I have been encouraged to share with you. I'm a bit nervous as to what may come out of this but it's all in good faith. I'm actually looking forward to it now. Feels like I've spent years at the gym but somehow only just getting started.
So here we go...
36yo M
5'9"
189 lbs (86.7kg)
~16-18% BF
Training but not consistently since 18 yo.
Used DBol and Anadrol at 23 yo - big mistake, didnt know about ancilleries or PCT.
Used Test and Var last year and stopped mid cycle for family planning.
Discipline can waver, my mind set is very all or nothing, so I've had spouts of training and not. I dont play sport regularly but do get around walking and some outdoors kayaking. Not often - my back hates kayaking.
Goals: To keep getter bigger (no set weight) and stay fairly lean. ~15% BF. Bulk / Cut rinse repeat jobby.
Current plan: to drop down to around 10% BF. This has been estimated around 170lbs.
Leading up to this I spent 9 weeks of bulking going from around ~165lbs to 189lbs.
Push / Pull / Legs&abs&Shoulders
Keep it within an hr.
Walk to and from gym. ~10k steps a day.
This phase started in August in an outdoor gym, using the pull up bars and do SEAL burpees and general bodyweight circuits to build strength and mobility up post back injury.
Injury: ongoing lumbar back issues. Most recent episode being the worst end of March. Muscle spasm - i was in bed for 4 days unable to get up so had 2 weeks off work for that. Still have issues with tightness, mobility and this has had an impact on what lifts i do.
Will pay for a private scan soon to address this but long and short, some days it's no bother, other days it's a real problem.
No deadlifts
No squats
No stretched out arm heavy rows
Hyper extensions tend to be iffy and can aggravate so dont bother with those now.
Looking forward to what comes to light on this. Atm I really can't risk my back going from doing these exercises wrong. I do them in the past, get over confident and then twinge it.
Supps:
C4 pre workout
Magnesium 450mg at night for restless leg syndrome
Omega 3 high EPA / DHA 1000mg
MK 677 - dropping this now as cutting calories down.
Will post today's workout shortly and maybe the previous few days to show a full PPL set of typical sessions and weights.
Ta everyone.
