The Wizard of Wolls: Follow the yellow brick gains

New year, a new log.

Current goal, to get aesthetic.

Current weight, eleventy billion cubic feet.

Current bodyfat, just too damn high.

Current diet, yes.

Current routine, everything.

First session after over a week off, 5 days of being ill, and not even hitting protein macros once over the holidays. All in all, surprised at how well it went, even if my strength fell off very quickly.

Pffft. I haven't even dared try 90kg bench since... A long time ago.

I will use this as inspiration for my beach workout today.

Pre-Christmas I was one rep off 3x8

So actually had the balls to weigh myself this morning; just under 14 stone and 3 lbs..... Which puts me at 90kg-ish.

Wtf.

I've lost weight over Christmas :/

I know that feeling (not the bench pressing - .could not get past five reps at 90kg)... Went in to Christmas holidays weighing 93kg+ on average; came out at 92kg almost dead on.

I blame the creatine.

*sighs whilst looking at weak shoulders... *

Got a bit preoccupied talking to a couple of juicers during this workout, so more of a jaw workout than leg workout. Still, chuffed with the 310kg sets!

Not sure if this is a freudian slip on my part, but I keep misreading the title of this log as "The Wizard of Walls."

Now I wonder if it says something about me that I never leave disappointed...?

In for your wizarding world of gains. Mirin 310kg leg press

Funny session. Struggled with endurance, not so much with strength. Diet hasn't been too bad but a terrible nights sleep past night.

Not much done in this workout, but feels like one of the better workouts I've had in quite a long time. 200kg just wouldn't come up, but I think it will in a month or so of good solid training.

18th is coming.

This session was actually entirely in preparation for the meet. I haven't done deads in so long I thought I'd loosen up a little before hand!
