Day 3, Week 1, Cycle 1
Incline DB press- 35kg x 12, 12, 12 (could of gone heavier on these but am being careful of my shoulders)
Lat pulldown- 50kg x 12, 40kg x 12, 12
Barbell curls- 30kg x 12, 12, 8
Day 4, Week 1, Cycle 1
Squats- 100kg x 8
Rear delt raises- 15kg x 10
Lying tricep extensions- 50kg x 10
Did a lot less on squats than in my big session last week but I did these without much breathing in between reps and without a spotter so am not too disappointed with it. Next week I will use the same weight but do the whole set without any pauses as it will make it easier to see how I am progressing this way.
Day 5, Week 1, Cycle 1
Wide grip seated rows- 65kg x 10
Bench press- 110kg x 9
Hammer curls- 15kg x 10
Day 6, Week 1, Cycle 1
Deadlift- 125kg x 10
Military press- 65kg x 7
DB tricep extensions- 10kg x 10
First week over and I feel stronger already! Looking forward to see where my deadlift goes in the near future.
I see you’re still putting in good work. Keep at it man.
How long do your workouts typically last?

Yeah got to put that work in.
Usually just under an hour cause I always take a long time to warm up for any bench pressing or lower body exercises. It seems kind of crazy to be training the same muscle groups so often but I feel great on it!
Day 1, Week 2, Cycle 1
It is my birthday weekend so went out on Friday and went all out! Thought I would be ok for training but still felt really out of it. Trained anyway but felt like I didn’t know what was going on so it didn’t go as well as planned.
BB rows- 75kg x 15
Bench press- 100kg x 12
DB preacher curls- 12.5kg x 12
19 years old tomorrow and am going to make sure I start and finish the year focused.
Belated happy birthday man! At least you didn’t skip a workout because of your celebrations

Thanks. Yeah pretty sure I still got something out of it.
Day 2, Week 2, Cycle 1
Still feel like absolute s*** today and can’t believe that it is still from drinking as I have never felt this way before, not that I drink often at all. A friend gave me some Cellmass last week and am thinking that it either reacted badly with the alcohol or my body just reacts badly to Cellmass. Either way I am going to stop taking it.
Speed skater squats- 12kg x 16
Seated shoulder press- 62.5kg x 13
Tricep pushdowns- Stack x 12 (at a different gym today so am not sure on the weight)
Chin ups- BW x Some
Horrible workout, can’t wait to get back to feeling normal again.
I’d make sure you’re not dehydrated. After hangovers are essentially being dehydrated.

Yeah I did think that but always drink loads of water. Will drink extra water today and if I still feel bad I will make it my last day on cellmass.
Day 3, Week 2, Cycle 1
Carried on with cellmass but am feeling a lot better now which is good.
DB Incline press- 40kg x 12
Lat pulldowns- 52.5kg x 12
Was rushing this workout and ran out of time for biceps 
Day 4, Week 2, Cycle 1
Squats- 102.5kg x 6
Rear delt raises- 16kg x 11
Lying tricep extensions- 52.5kg x 9
Was disappointed with the squats but as I brought the weight down for the sets after my max I changed my technique and felt a lot better. Just got to remember to push my hips back instead of pushing my legs out.
Got bench tomorrow and am looking forward to it, going for 115kg for 8 if I feel good.
Day 5, Week 2, Cycle 1
Seated rows- Was at a different gym today so used a different machine but did 4 plates for 10
Bench press- 115kg x 6-8 (Asked someone to spot me but not touch the bar and he touched the bar on every rep! So I really dont know how many I got unassisted but he kept throwing me out of the groove by touching the bar)
Hammer curls- 17.5kg x 9
The number of people that can’t spot properly, let alone listen to instructions is rather frustrating.
115x6-8 is still pretty good. You’re basically repping with my max haha

Lol yeah but it wasn’t half as bad as what someone did to my friend yesterday! Couldn’t believe how stupid it was! He was going for a 1rm on squat and just done 157.5kg easy so decided to go for 170kg but wanted people spotting on each side in case he couldn’t lift it. So he asked one of the trainers that we know and then a random big guy in the gym thinking he would know how to spot considering his size. Went down looking strong, started coming up then the bar is over a foot higher on one side and almost fell off his back. Safe to say he didn’t get it, all because this guy thought it would be a good idea to lift one side up! When we said to him about it his response was ‘But you asked me to help’, IDIOT! Lucky he didn’t get injured.
Maybe you should try something different for your bench if you don’t feel its progressing?

Oh crap man. That’s crazy.
Well I am going to start doing more singles and using weights closer than my max, instead of going for rep maxes. Hopefully that’ll do me some good.

I know, couldnt believe he did it.
Sounds good, hopefully you’ll get more max strength from it. Remember we are still in the race for 4 plates a side!
