You should try the 300 workout sounds like the kinda of workout your looking for.

Just looked at it , pretty s'hit i think! Boring.

I could make up one more hardcore than that.

Going for squats & DB curls tomorrow

Will try

Front Barbell Squat

Overhead squat

hack squat

Nomal barbell squat

Will see what it best as i do not have a spotter or a rack. May just keep them very light with lots of reps

That is some crazy exercises , i bet that has conditioned him in to a machine.

DOMS have kicked in from my day five 5 mile run , will see how the squats feel later and throw in some other exercises i think , time to start some ab work. Crunches will be good for a start!

So not sure what is on the cards for later but some type of squat will be there today , even if only low weight with plenty of reps.

Will probably have a few deadlifts , not many though as i will do a full routine of them tomorrow as it will have been a week since the last set.

Will be looking to do deads in to over head press in one motion soon as that really gets me pumped and my heart racing.

Would like to start doing some power cleans soon aswell , will have to see as i do not fancy breaking the patio or making giant holes in the grass hahahaha

Once my body is fully adjusted , will start throwing in some intense circuits along with the weight sessions.

I think things are going to start to get more interesting

I am i a right f'ucking foul mood , hopefully i can use the agression rather than it go against me and send me out of focus.

Just about to start now

Not entirely happy with that , couldnt focus much but got in what i could. I am absolutly saturated in sweat though and i do feel pumped & good. Could really feel the squats , only done them once before in the gym.

My body is getting use to this i think i do not feel satisfied at all.

Really starting to get annoyed with having no rack/cage , have really bad doms in bicep area so finind it difficult
to pick the bar up off the floor and then lift behind head. I think i have it in me to get near 100kg for a squat , going
to order a cage tomorrow as this is really starting to bother me now and hinder my progress. May have to start going
to the gym once a week aswell for a heavy lifting session.

My muscle gains are immense at the moment and my body is seriously changing in shape , loving it. I think i have alot more to come

Going to cut the carbs on monday down to a minnimum and run everyday , compensate with some extra prtein aswell. Get a good bit of meat down me

Great south run is on the 25th september, so got to get in some practise.
