Actually got a pretty good back workout from the hotel gym last night. No point posting the log as the plates on the machines were numbered in increments rather than amount of weight, but workout was challenging and pumpy, especially considering it was at 8pm!
 
First gym session back yesterday in about 3 weeks, and boy was it tough! :eek:

I'm still in that period of getting back in to the swing of things at the moment. Strength has been hit slightly and anything over 6 reps seems to be considered cardio by my body at the moment......

Overall strength was pretty poor today. I think drinking on Saturday night and diet not being as great as it could be has held me back; even picking up the 36's felt heavy today, and reps were down from last week.

Still I persevered with some high rep low weight work and got a decent workout in the end.

Bit of a blurgh workout. I'm away for work for the next two days so had to cram chest and back in together, which I hate doing. Also I've missed about a weeks worth of liquid gains, so strength and confidence seems to have dropped a bit.

Still look swole AF tho.
 
I just can't catch a break at the moment. Either I'm away with work so unable to train, or I get food poisoning like I have now, so written off for two days. Blurgh.

I feel that. A round of "reorganisation" at work, together with a change of boss and a back spasm has ruined my regime...

But then, I haven't made any gains in around a year. :eek: :D
 
Feels like I haven't either :p

I don't lose the motivation for the gym at all, I just get frustrated when I'm not making progress for reasons beyond my control. Just Gotta plough through it for another few weeks.

At least I can eat food today :D

My training seems to be the same right now. I'll have maybe 1 week of full training and then something will crop up that will prevent a week worth of full sessions the following week or so, and then finally I might get another full week of training in.
 
Yep, that's the way. Monday full of food poisoning. Tuesday recovery. Now I'm away for work for two days. Still, I suppose I can do chest, back, shoulders, legs and arms on Friday.... :D
 
Ha ha! I found that gym place!
