Stronkfak's Beauty Log

Sooo, back again. Hopefully I’ll stay consistent this time around

First of all, thanks a ton @Chris_Colucci . I had no idea which email I used for this account, so I just went ahead and made a new one. By suspending my old account and emailing me, I managed to find the email I used for this account and get it back

I’m doing good too thanks mate. I’m lifting a lot less recently and cycling a lot instead.

I saw it on your log man. Looks like a fun way to train. Also, you’re stronger than back when you started logging here

Bicep work
A bunch, done pretty fast cause we had to leave before the grocery stores closed

Also, after years of being stupid with my food, both due to having little to no money and not caring, I’ve started counting calories. My bw is down from what it used to and I look way better. Still I’m kinda fluffy and have fucked up my diet a bit the past few weeks. I’ll be posting some details on how my diet will look and what my goals are a bit later

I wanted to change things up for a while. Something I always wanted to try was doing multiple exercises, 1-2 sets of each. I was reading the book of a retired bodybuilder and formally doctor (he’s writting and taking interviews as dr Testosterone), and he was describing exactly this training method. So, I decided to give it a try

Let me start this post by saying REST IN PEACE JOHN MEADOWS. He was the type of guy you started watching cause he was huge, but kept going cause of how soft spoken he was, as well as his fatherly like mannerisms. Such a nice guy, he will be missed

CHEST (Home gym) - 09/08/2021

Low incline bench press (1)
60 kg / 132 lbs x 14 pretty happy about that

Dips
Bw x 8, 7

Dumbbell chest pullovers
12 kg / 26.4 lbs x 12, 10

Kneeling chest band pullovers
2 yellows x 12 x 2 Was supposed to use a cable. Next time

Planks
Bw x 1 minute, 45 seconds, 45 seconds, 45 seconds, 30 seconds

So, planks… As I was chilling with my gf goofing around, we had a plank competition. At first I thought "I’ll smoke the poor little girl, but after 30-40 seconds I started shaking. At 1 minute I fell and she only stopped to make fun of me. Not taking it to heart, but this has to be improved. This is the exercise the average overweight school gym teacher does to show off to kids. Not being able to hold a plank for long is embarrassing, not to mention it reveals a big weakness of mine. So, to sum it up, goal is a bunch of easy 2+ minute sets on these

Also, cutting for the time being. Macros for the past few days are: 300 gr protein / 120 - 160 gr carbs / 65 - 80 gr fat
