I have logged on and off and I stay focused better when I am logging. Its time for me to clean my shit up and what better place than here.
Perhaps some important stats:
Height: 5’7.5
Weight: 139.3 at this very moment.
Bodyfat:21%
Bench: 130
Squat:240
Deadlift: 265
Push Press: 120
Last 5k: 20:19
Goals…we will see. I have a pretty extensive past in powerlifting and a bit in Olympic lifting and some strongman and crossfit bidnazz. I have side-stepped away from that a few times and dabbled in figure and bikini, which I like. Right now, I would like to improve my conditioning, so I have been throwing in a bit of metabolic work after the strength work I do. Currently, Im trying the ole 5/3/1 as its an approach I really havent tried yet. I like it.
Oh, and I wouldnt mind looking good naked.
Thanks Cal! In the very height of powerlifting days, my running was bogus! I found an old log where I had ran one with my sister in right around 30 and marked that puppy as a PR. I was also 20ish lbs then and quite a bit stronger.
I think I have found a good balance, but always looking for improvement.

That pull-up and run workout sounds suspiciously like Crossfit, heh. (Actually, I won’t diss CF because, despite the koolaid, it does actually make you push yourself further than you might otherwise).
Andy–When did you do 100 pullups, guy? (i do believe you, though)
Nadia–not at all! Keep 'em coming! Glad you are following along.
Cal–I am SO busted, aye? No shame in my game…when it comes right now to conditioning, I like to borrow from
their metabolic stuff. Their strength training is a little too higgly piggly for me, though.
Alexus–It wasnt pretty and…MY HANDS!!!
Mom–Hey pretty lady!
Update: my last meal of cottage cheese never happened last night…I got home from the lab and fell out almost as soon as my head hit the pillow. Its been a rough week. Naturally, I am now STARVING.
Lulu—by all means, sister. Have anything you want! I wanna feel better naked, I should say. Thanks for the compliment!
Well…today hasnt been the best. It was a super busy day at work. This is what I got in food wise:
M1)1 cup egg whites/spinach
1/2 cup oatmeal<—had a hard time swallowing this down today…I left some in the bowl
M2) 6oz Chicken Breast
2 MOFUGGIN CUPS of normandy blend veggies, steamed with salt and pepper
1/2 sweet potato
M3) 2 scoops whey + 1/2 banana
M4) 5oz Chicken with franks hot sauce
A carrot…lol
Tentative M5) Cottage Cheese/Almonds
I gave Sumo Deads a go for a smidge today and just didnt like it. Has anyone else switched from conventional to sumos? I think I am going to just stick with conventionals because it feels comfortable to me.

I used to do these conditioning routines by a boxer named Ross Enamait.
I have a couple of his books. I’m not a fan of his strength workouts at all but his conditioning days kicked the crap out of me. But anytime I see something like ‘100 pull-ups’… I usually change the workout because half the time you are fucking standing around, lol.
