cheers fella :)
day one.
woke up late for work, had to shoot out the door with just a bannana, o top it off i could only stop for one break as i has to finish a whole load of block work and render the side of the house!
had a massive lunch though with beans on toast, couple of bannanas, a yoghurt, and then had a bowl of shreddies... quite handy working on your parents house!
couldnt stop again though tunil i got home so ive had a poor diet today, had a quick sandwich when i got in and hit theb training just now, needed more hours in the day today but nevermind!
just finished deads... my back and legs are killing me! i upped the weight from 50kg to 75kg.. massive increase for me but i felt i could go to 80kg.
calf raises have been the same, 75kg but i feel i could lift a lot more with my legs, my biggest problem is my arms and grip... holding onto that much weight on my skinny little arms is bloody hard! lol
feels like my back is going to explode as well... can really feel the muscles in the back pump up during the deads and just lifting the weight up to do the Cr's whoop whoop.
jeez that one killed me, SLDL's with dumbells, my grip is really showing up here, felt like i was going to drop the dumbells on my feet!
i think im going to use barbell next time with an alternate grip!!
SLDL's were 35g on each dumbell so 70kg total, doubt i could do anymorw without dropping them, just got to 8, felt like i could add a couple more kg's but cant risk dropping them!
got to 2nd set, cant grip and i think im getting poor form, going to stick the wights on the barbell instead.
3rd set, stuck the weight on the ezbar, was so much easier to grip it where it curves! 70kg on the ez, whicvh does weight much compared to the barbell.
felt so much better though and feel like im going to pass out i keep going dizzy, wicked! :D
tried doing lunges at 40kg, 20 on each dumbell, couldnt balance properly and keep stubbling, i think im trying too much weight so next time i will reduce right down and concentrate on form before upping it... my legs could cope with the weight but i couldnt balance at all... i take it this is due to the smaller muscles that control my legs??
moved onto front squats but my arms are dead, finding it hard to get 40kg up onto my chest, partly because of work today and also in part to my arms being weak.
finding balance a problem again. either way, onwards and upwards, going to lower he fronts to 30kg.
ok just done 30kg front squats 8 reps and my legs are shaking, doesnt feel like a lot of weight when i get it on my chest but after 8 squats im shaking... feels a bit crappy to be doing such a low weight but hey ho... :D
right, legs all done. IM BLODDY SHATTERED! WOOHOO!
not the best i know but im happy.
so.
Deadlifts 3/8 60kg, 70kg, 75kg
Calf raises 3/10 75kg
SLDL DB 70kg, DB 70kg EZbar 70kg
Lunges 1 x 40kg (bad balance)
Front Squats 40kg, 30kg, 30kg
abs now.
crunches 3/15 guts hurting now!!!!
sidebends 3/8 20kg, 25kg and 25kg
leg raises 3/15
just had my pwo, 3 scoops of whey with full milk, and just wanna say im bloody knackered lol.

yeah did deadlifts yesterday mate, they are the first and main thing i hit on a monday.
got no where to do the widegrip pullups mate, my training area consists of a foldup bench, a stack of weights, 1x barbell, 1x ez bar, 2 x dumbells and a rollup excerside matt to reduce the noise.
i live out of a double bedroom above a family so i dont want to start adding crazy weights and dropping them or making loads of noise as its wooden flooring everywhere.
plus i have about 5ft square t train in lol... im going to see if i can rig sokmething up to bolt to the wall though... or see if i can buy something.
its a bit of a pain in the arse but its home for now and i daresay by next year i will have my own place again so i can build a gym.
as for food... hmmmm, well i love chicken, which is a good thing i guess! i never have much time to cook so i normally put the rice on the hob, chicken in the foreman then add stuff to it....
i normally use uncle bens sweet and sour sauce simply because i like the flavour, then i add extra pineapple and peppers to it... ive made my own sweet n sour a few times but it never tastes as nice.
i like loads of different food to be honest as long as its not hot and not too spicy, hot food dowsnt do it for me and spicy doesnt agree with me ;) lol

i work out at home for a few reasons...
im a skinny runt so i wouldnt feel at ease in thier to start with i dont think.
i have a bench etc here and enough weights.
and my working hours are all over the place so its good to be able to get in from work, train, eat, then relax infront of the tv or whatever without having to travel... yeah lazy i know lol.
i do plan on joining a gym but once ive got my form better, and once i can bench and lift the weights i have at home here.
ive got about 85kg in plates and i cant bench anywhere near that so i might as well continue to use my home gear until ive got into it all a bit more.

dinner, sweet n sour chicken with noodles.
