Iron Serenity

New Year,
New log.

Due to significant life changes, it’s gonna be hard to find a routine. Gotta crush as much into as little time as possible… Well, time between sets has gotten a little long…

Here’s today’s

less then hour on the floor… about 4 minutes per set total time… Heart/Lungs and delts burn!

You’ll get fast results from that.

Thanks for the comment Joe!
It F’n hurt!

Time constraints are severe, so basically for most gym lifts it’s this or only a couple exercises per session.
You’re comment gives me hope that I will see improvement, not just maintenance.
I’ll keep trying this even if I have to drop weight.

Worst case it is KILLER cardio!

break has allowed knee and shoulders to heal up…

Hammer Strength Plate loaded… as opposed to Pin select.
I’ve found that there are different sizes of the plate loaded though. The other location of the gym I go to has white hammer strength machines and they are smaller then the grey ones… Trashed my shoulder for a couple weeks not listening to that… The pin select ones seem small too… I’m of the opinion that machine lifts are different lift from machine to machine and from free weights… So I record the machines…
