KD13 Not Very Strongman

Welcome to my log, I will be using this log as a place to keep my thoughts and observations over the next few months, so expect pictures, food and training updates, nothing major exciting but hopefully I can get in the best shape I’ve been in. I spent the most of 2016 rebuilding and trying to get back to where I was in early 2015. The best shape I have been in was early 2015, in April of that year I had testicular surgery, which although was fairly routine and straight forward it hit me hard, I…

UnKillable Kleinhound 2: This time he's more unkillable-er

After a long absence I decided to start logging my training here again, even if it’s just once a week for my own benefit and for anyone else interested. I’ve made some significant changes to my training and diet in the last twelve weeks. I joined a small garage strongman/powerlifting gym in Adelaide (south australia) and it fucking kicks ass. One tiny mirror, heaps of bands and chains and stones and kegs, farmers handles and sleds. No more waiting for bro’s to get out of the squat rack, just t…

Lelouch's T-ransformation 2018Training Log

I’m really pleased that this challenge exists, I think it’s a great way to put that little bit of extra pressure on yourself to hold yourself accountable. Hoping this will be that wake-up call to really hone in on my diet for the next 6 months and beyond. So thanks t-nation and it’s users for providing this sort of outlet, much appreciated. A bit of background, I’m 25 years old, and 180cm/5’11". As of now I’ve been training about 5 and a half months. I started off with starting strength for the…

Loganator's Log: Back to My Roots

Background Competetive distance runner for about a decade, decided to take up lifting 4 years ago. Went from 140 lbs to my current heaviest at 178 lbs. Looking to compete in my first strongman event at the end of the summer because, well, it looks fun. Here’s the before pic, doing one last peak cycle for squat and bench then I’ll start working on getting the abs back [Hosted by imgur.com] Edit: thought I’d add 2 photos to show the full 2018 change. Fat 178 to lean 170 to slightly less fat…

Lord Humongous training log: Humongous T-transformation log

[IMG_1586] This thread is going to be a random mixture of Spuds Mackenzie and squatting 4x a week, and will eventually be my t-ransformation log. After following programs for a long time I’m changing my approach for a while and pretty much just going in and doing whatever I want, which, for right now, is lots of squatting (back, front, occasional leg press) and some kind pressing every workout, assistance work fills in the gaps.

MarkKO's Training Log

Only just started looking at this section of the forum. I like the idea of sharing progress in one place. Basic information about me/my training history: I’m 30, been around the 198 lb mark (give or take 10 lbs) for the last five years and started training in mid 2010. That was basic, normal noob stuff but I did squat and deadlift and loved them. After about 3 months I started kettlebell training (not entirely voluntarily) and did mostly bodyweight and KB stuff until I started competing in kett…

Mattjp's Training Log

History [updated 29/06/20] Ran 5/3/1 for Beginners and lost a bit of weight. Then ran Full Body, Full Boring and put it back on. Did a few more basic 5/3/1 templates and dropped from ~220lbs to 205ish. Ran a Brian Alsruhe Powerbuilder and put on some weight. Conditioning improved. Trained for and competed in a strongman show. Got stronger, but went up to 240lbs. Began a “get rugby ready” program in January 2020. Then all the rugby got cancelled because of Coronavirus. Completed Dan John’s 10,0…

Velvet's Lifting and Other Fun Stuff Log

I have a nasty habit of losing and/or destroying notebooks so I’m going to start a log here. There’s also the added benefit of the community here, so feel free to join in with advice, experiences, and witty banter! I thought about writing a background but it’d be way too long since I’m a detail freak. Short version instead: I was wicked skinny when I was younger (6’, 150lbs when I graduated college and got into lifting). I have a lot of hobbies that’ll probably make their way into this thread w…

Hello everyone. I’m not really new to T Nation, more so just new to actually signing up and saying hello. I’ve sat and read almost every single article on T Nation. And I’m happy that I have a very reliable source of info when it comes to body building. I’m currently in college studying to be a Hematologist, and an aspiring powerlifter. Most people refer to me as a black sheep, or a flower child. I’m kind of just always relaxing in my mind, and doing my best to see results from the effort I put …

[1] [image]Starting my log and dropping in the picture before I chicken out. I am a lot fatter and in worse shape than I’m used to - fixing these should be complementary goals. For some reason I thought I’d just stay in shape without focusing on it (my first career was in the Army, and it’s just something I took for granted). As for me, I work a corporate job with global travel, am in an MBA program, and coach sports for both my kids. I am used to doing more bodybuilding-type stuff, but it’s …

Wow yeah, so, pretty sure I can count the creation of this thread as a damn cardio workout.

Good luck, everyone. Remember to vote for both categories and all voting wraps up on Tuesday.

[TrainForPain]

Awesome that there was that kind of participation! This was a good deal - same time next year?

[MarkKO]

So we just say who we vote for, right?
