Chong's "don't care Squat about Deadlift's" Warrior Blog

Yeah same here mate, I definitely want to run 1 or 2 HST cycles very soon..... I think it's the thought of Squats for 15 reps that keeps putting me off LOL! :D :D

Did you ever go on the official HST forums? They were really good for new idea's and making the routine more advanced :)

First time I've been able to do this split for nearly 3 weeks. Changed a few things and had a go at some new exercises. I've been suffering with a cold and also what feels like the beginnings of bicep tendonitis in my right arm. Elbows feel a little flaky aswell so I spent a lot of time on warmups and keeping the weights down.

Will be changing routine next week to either HST or Chad Waterburys 10x3, haven't decided yet but I want to shed 10lb-14lb of fat in next few months.

Chest & Back

Very strict rest times [90 sec] is from weight hitting the floor to starting first rep of next set
(reps shown in brackets are done with a 15 sec rest/pause)

Didn't feel recovered from last 2 workouts but I won't be able to hit the gym again until 3rd Jan so decided to have a go. Not sure if I've got away with it but felt I tweaked my Rotator Cuff in right shoulder on Incline BB Press. I hate this bloody exercise, I've never really done it in my life because it's crap :rolleyes: I think it's because I've lowered the bar to my chest, seems to put a huge amount of strain in shoulders... I'm going to keep at it but not lower all the way to chest so how it goes.

Enough chunnering.... All The Best For 2013!! :D:D:D
 
Decided to take a 2 week break to give the various strains and twinges time to heal. Having a break like this is actually part of HST every 2 months so it's not so bad. RC strain is still there a little but much better, elbows are good as new but right arm is still suffering with what I can only describe as "shin splints" in my forearm. Will be avoiding any hammer type movement until it heals. I was planning on a new routine but with exercises limited I've decided to stay with the lighter DB work of this routine. I did actually try some HC2PP but once I hit 60kg there was no chance, I couldn't even just do a Military Press. So 10x3 for Fatloss is postponed.... for now.

This workout was a few days ago, a lot of that is from memory! It was a decent workout, especially considering it was nothing like what I had planned when I walked in the gym :)

Have had forearm strapped up to ease any stress on it and applying Arnica gel to it 3x times a day. Never used it before, anyone else had experience with Arnica gel? Thoughts?

recipe for anabolic quiche please :)

diet looks awesome.
Click to expand...
Cheers :) I'm trying to get the majority of protein from real food sources, though it's not always convenient to get 100%. Plus there's the cost issue, so I do use protein powders. Fruit & veg aren't ignored and I really believe not taking vitamin pills helps stop me getting lazy in this department with the "bases are covered" attitude... an attitude I've been guilty of myself.

"Anabolic Quiche"
Required stuffs...
  • Puff pastry from supermarket - I buy a 500g pack that will make 2 (there's a fair bit of waste but it costs less than £1 a pack)
  • 6/8 rashers bacon (I cut the fat off giving 130g meat but that's your choice)
  • 200g Cooked Chicken (I use the left overs from the roasted chicken we ate for Sunday dinner)
  • 6 eggs (free-range)
  • 25g Egg White Powder
  • 25g Cheese
  • Mixed herbs - I just use tesco value
  • Milk just a splash

We have a 2" deep pan that allows me to cook the quiche in it from raw on a low heat. I don't know where you'd get one of these from but we've had it about 30 years. Most people would probably need to cook this in the oven so the method will be slightly different.... it's a quiche so it's pretty simple.

  • I use half the pastry pack and roll it out as thin as I can get away with to allow me to cook the quiche without the pastry burning. It's important to get it thin as the pastry is very heavy on the calories!
  • Line the pan with the pastry and cut away the spare (which is about 70g leaving 180g)
  • Fry the bacon off in coconut oil
  • Mix the 25g Egg White Powder with the 6 eggs and a splash of milk and water
  • Add sprinkling of herbs, mix together in protein shaker with hand blender
  • Add bacon and chicken to the pan and pour in egg mixture
  • Sprinkle grated cheese over the top
  • Put on very low heat until cooked.

Takes about 20 mins from start to finish, lovely :)

If you're on a cut like me then you need to avoid the pastry, you could actually cook this without any at all like a frittate :) I just throw the crust away when I'm eating it as it adds to the taste nicely on the bottom. If you copy the exact volume of ingredients above, cut into quarters (throw away bacon fat and crusts) then it will give the macro's I gave earlier.

Good workout considering I was quite rushed, only had just over an hour to get this done including warmup. Forearm feels better but the tendonitis on the inside of right elbow is worse. For some reason I had AAKG pre-workout, horrible stuff. I'm sure this causes the tendonitis, the muscles pump up so muxh I can't feel them and I think it puts pressure on tendons, nerves, etc.

So that's an example of a full a weeks diet now recorded. Yesterday I just repeated and had exactly the same as last Saturday. New Year I recorded bodyweight around 16st 2lbs.

This morning I'm 15st 7lbs so that's approx 2lbs a week weight loss, which is my target :)

Still looking good! sorry to hear about that forearm issue..strange, 1st time in my life I seem to have issue in forearm also. Pretty sure it result/associated with elbow tendonitis I had pretty badly last year. Anyway..hopefully yours clears up soon. Pics when the lbs are lost?
Click to expand...
I've always struggled with tendonitis and elbow problems. It's twice led to very lengthy lay-offs :(

I very rarely do pics because I cba with the effort of taking them, transferring, uploading, hosting, etc but I will be making an effort to get some up this time :)
 
I decided to abandon the cut and adopt a 5 day a week routine (which I have never done before) but after the session I changed my mind lol! The cut is going well so I'm going to stick at it. It's also keeping my drinking in check as I've not touched a drop since NYE... and I'm a BIG red wine drinker so that's a big positive for me.

No time for cardio today

Right arm is in trouble so I need to scrap all exercises that aggravate it, no matter how great it is. Sp Pull-Ups, Chins, BOR's, DB Rows, Cable Pulldowns are all out :( Not sure why but the double-jointed hammer strength machine's at this gym don't hurt my arm at all.... so at least I can still train my back. Doubt I'll be able to do any curling for a while.
 
So they cut the blood supply off, heavily support the joint and move it through full ROM, then flood it with blood? That's voodoo! :eek:

For sure vino is anabolic, I've performed all my PB's hungover from excess red wine the night before :D
