Stickman 2: Return of the YOLO...

First leg day ever using only machines. Very weird.

HACK SQUAT THING (3*10) Full stack; not very interesting.
SINGLE LEG HACK SQUATT (3*10) Half stack; going for full DBSS pain.
QUAD HAMAGE SUPERSET (20-10-20) Worked down to a full stack, but just couldn't get enough... so piled on the reps.

A gash workout, but figured I would at least try the gym in my current office. I do t really see the attraction of machines unless a person is determined to squeeze the last marginal gain out of a muscle. My legs feel like they have worked, but only on the surface... after a squatting session, even my bones feel tired (probably the difference between muscle and neural fatigue).

Regardless, it was an experience... and I will see whether it is worth it next time I squat.
 
Finally got back in the gym this morning... Cheeky ten minute session...

SEATED STRICT PRESS (12) 40-45-45
PUSH-UP (12) BW-BW-BW

Not amazing, but nice to get at least some part of a workout...
 
Urgh... so long since leg day. I should have posted in MoNkeE's log. :D

HANG POWER SNATCH (5) BAR-40-50-60(3) That wasn't very nice...
BACK SQUAT (10) 60-60-70 Weight wasn't a problem, but the movement sucked.

Back into fasted, early morning training. It's been a while. And I haven't missed it.
 
Slooooowly organising my brain for morning training...

SEATED STRICT PRESS (12) 40-45-47.5-47.5(5)
PUSH-UP (12) BW-10-10

Should have done some arms at work but ran out of time. :(
 
:D

Back day...

DEADLIFT (5) 100-120-130 Finding my range... Could probably have managed 150kg, but that would have been pointless in the medium-long term.
PENDLAY ROW (12) 60-70-70
SAR (12) Probably around 30kg...
BIZEPS Nowhere near enough...
 
Cheap back session...

POWER CLEAN (3) 60-60-70-70-80
BOR (10) 80-80-80

Enough to keep the blood flowing... My hip still feels jammed which means yet another week off squats...
 
Some work gym-ing (with machines), and some deadlifting before today...

THURSDAY
DEADLIFT (3) 120-130-130-130-130

TODAY
STRICT PRESS (12) 40(5)-50(5)-60(5)-45-45-45
PUSH-UP (12) BW-10-10-10
DELTSUNTRIZE *

Hamstrings and glootz are still sore, and now my chest is going to be stinging. Still no squatting, but I reckon another fortnight won't make any difference in terms of losses... :(
 
Deadlifting... because it was a bit late to get too busy with anything else.

DEADLIFT (3) 100-130-140-140-140-140

It's getting easier all the time. I just need to get consistent with training (he keeps saying).

Oh, and the sled machine? Turns out two days after was interesting: it completely destroyed my glutes to the point I felt like I was sitting on shattered glass! :eek:
 
I did some bench and press work at my brother's garage gym yesterday but forgot to log.

It was immense.

Today's workout, however:

BSS (12) BW-BW Just getting moving and testing the ROM on my hip.
DEADLIFT (3) 100-130-150-150-150-150
RDL (10) 60-70-80
BOR (10) 60-70-70

Finally... a decent workout.
