A year and a day

3/5/20


Hi,
It has been 1 year and a day since I last published, I have started this journey to be in better shape and found my path is not linear. At my heaviest I was 265 lbs., that was a few years back.


 I have decided to not commute to work via bicycle because of the time it takes to go home. For the last 11 months I have been going to the gym 3-5 days a week.This part of the reason I started going to the gym. Started at 240 lbs., got down to 222, but as of this morning I am back up to 233. Frustrated at my self for letting my eating get out of control, I have a new resolve to get to that 215 lb. marker and reevaluate if I want to keep cutting. My typical week of working out is:


Monday: Legs and Shoulders
                -Squat, straight leg deadlift, calf raises (reverse lunges when time allows)
                -Shoulder press, reverse fly machine, lateral/front raises


Tuesday: Chest and tricep
               -Bench press, lower cable flys, incline press
               -Dips, tricep extensions or rope pull downs


Wednesday: Back and Bicep
               -Lat pull downs, straight arm pull downs, Rows, pull ups
               -Easy bar, drag curls, concentration curls, chin ups


Thursday: bonus day(extra cardio or extra Tues or Wed)


Friday: Every muscle group day
               -Deadlift, leg press, hamstring curl, calf raise
               -Chest, Back, Bicep, Tricep, Shoulder


Saturday and/or Sunday: Bonus or make up days


All days at the gym include 5-10 minutes of cardio, as well as core work.


Thanks for reading,


Keep the rubber side down,
