Notes: Felt good to be back in the gym lifting again. My grip was giving out a little bit on the last set before my top set, so I had to mix up my grip for it. All in all, I’ve settled around 160lbs and I’m looking and feeling different. Been doing Muay Thai again lately, along with more cardio just for better heart health. I just need to work on my discipline now to clean up a lot of the things I eat.

Notes: I had to toss my lifting straps on for the top sets today. I got a little overzealous with trimming some callouses. Aside from that though, I had a good lifting session. Front squats felt great, but still like hell. I also picked up some new running shoes so I can start getting back into jogging.

Notes: The lifting session was great this morning. Hit everything I wanted to. Went into class, then had a little time before dinner to start jogging again. I forgot how much it sucked. I can’t just jump back in to it like I used to. On top of the lifting, I’ll be looking at a beginner running program just to help ease back into things. The volume shouldn’t be too crazy to where it starts to detract from any particular area of my workouts. If it does end up to be, then I’ll have to adjust accordingly.

Cardio:
Elliptical - 20:00 (Steady)

Notes: Had a great lifting session this morning at the campus gym. Had one moment of annoyance this morning when the head coach of the football team approached me and only recommended I use the low grips instead of the high grips because he only has his players over 6’4 use the high grips. I know my numbers aren’t anything to brag about, but I’m getting my work done, and truly understand the unsolicited advice being highly frowned upon now. Hell, I’m feeling the movement exactly where I want to, and whenever I’ve used it, I don’t notice it beat up my body as much as the straight bar. Just had to ignore him and keep on lifting. Looking forward to starting up Couch to 5K tomorrow morning.

Cardio:

Notes: I don’t know why I convinced myself that trying to do singles on the front squat at 100% of my training max, after my deadlifts, was a good idea, but I went for it anyway and failed miserably. Still glad I got in some reps on it though.

Notes: Since I’ve lost some weight, I’ve noticed that my overhead press has declined a little, so I threw on the belt just to see how it felt. Made a huge difference in terms of stability. Also hit 205lbs for some paused singles, which is actually a first for me, so I was pretty pleased with that.

Notes: The front squats felt great, but extremely tough. Tried working up to some singles on the trap bar deadlift after the front squats, but felt like I was going to explode when I hit 285lbs, so I just called it a day after that.

Notes: This was a rough day. Had to start with my bench work since the squat rack was taken, and I’d only had corn chowder on the day since I’d been too busy with finals. I had no energy for my overhead press.
