Slow and Steady Wins the Race

Hi, i will open a training logs, i really things is a good way, to look if i progress or not…
i have some pictures so, i will see after 2 month now, even if the gym are close again because of Covid.I training in the house and gym because my work take a lot of time and more because the gym are close early because of curfew.

I stop gym after the first confinement 3/4 month, and i was in a bad way of life. I start to training since 2 month ~ full body, body weight, split a bit now and arms shoulders in the house. So i just recover a bit my level of April, but still my resultats are not good really.

For me, to have a training log will be the best way to have some advices somethime, for my program and my body, how that i can make it better and better.

Sorry if my english is not so good, iam not english, and i learn in the street, without any lessons, just speaking with peoples and duolingo/reads.

For the moment i do a Split but soon the gym will be close… so i will not ask if i have a good program or not, but when the gym will open again, i will do it.

That is my body, i don’t know why in the picture my chest look really dissymmetric, is not so much like that in reality daminit really, but still, i will show u.

I really need to work my core and abs, i think iam fucking weak about that, because i don’t have so much fat ? but my stomach is not Flat, maybe the vaccuum will help a lot for that.

im 180 cm for 72/73 kilo, i want to stop to gain mass, and improve my body close to the limits and after gain some weight.

I think is better to do like that, i feel that more i gain weight even if i eats healthy, more i take also fat a bit, even if i control… so i stop to 3500/3700 kcal and after 2/3 month i want to see how is my body, when get ways i got more power but a want to be a bit more lean before to improve again my weight gain.

That was in April

Pretty good English for no formal training! What country are you in?

wesh wesh yo

The gym is again " close " we need a specific medical certificat for train, so is Dead.

I will train with what i had in my house ( squat 50kilo, pull up, push up, dips… elastic bands) and do a lot of rep and try to maximise the train of my core and abs and so on, all of the “little” things. i will try to take regular note in this logs

êace

still the same routine, after to be positif (covid) iam very tired somethime without reasons, i never was in the moon like that, i need to check if that stay a long time or not, that can be a persistent “symptom”

Soon i go to the south, so i will just be able to training outside

If u get some free time somethime, watch that, is pretty nice

I come back to train after a while, travel and covid. I take a Routine (kingbeef thread split) on this site after some advices, im feel good in the first day (chest), it was really short training, one hour, not so much serie, always need to go to the failure like he say, will see how i will progress with this programs after 3 month

Good sensation, just short, i dont feel the " pump " like when you do more series or reps, but i think its a good programs because for the moment i dont have enough power for push more heavy.
When i will get more power, it will be interesting to do more reps/series maybe, but now, i think its the perfecy way for growth up.

I read a good Book in the gym between the serie, go check if u want
