There's Still Some Stuff in the Basement: A 51 Y/O Log

Wellcome to my diet and trainning log! 51 yo, 1.83 m (6’00), 135.4 kg (298 lb), ~35%BF, high blood pressure, type 2 diabetic, etc, etc, but still alive. Main goal of this log is to stay focused on diet during this year. Lots of fat to lose. Both protocols, for diet and trainning are bro-based, and I like them. Diet: warrior + keto (but I prefer to mantain food intake controlled) + one cheat meal at each sunday if 1 kg or more is lost. I know it´s wrong… but it still working for me at this pl…

Caesium32's Log - Cycling With a Side of Lifting

I’ve decided to start a log to record my training and hopefully gain some interest and get help from others. About me, I’m currently following a routine I made myself, it’s loosely based on starting strength and I plan to run it until I go to university at the end of September. I’m 18 years old, 5’10" and about 180lbs (82kg) give or take a few. I started training in my garage with a few weights a couple years ago and bulked up a bit while growing at the same time (was around 140lbs at 15). In …

Colucci Still Lifts

[ArnoldAndMickey] ^ Another one of my favorite bodybuilding pics of all time because, random Mickey Mouse. Since some folks got their logs off to an early start, I figured I’d toss it up now too. Updates will again likely be somewhat sporadic (because I still work for a living dammit), but if you dudes are in, I’m in. My T-ransformation 2017 log tracked going from furry/no abs to slightly less furry/abs in the right lighting. Feel like I’m on track for moderately furry/consistent abs this go…

Light Squats and Mediocre Kung Fu

Been away from this site for a long time, and have never done a training log, but thinking of changing both of those things now. I feel I am at an age now where I am literally fighting against my age and my genetics, not to mention the perpetual aches and pains. Just been feeling a bit lethargic and in need of a re-boot. Last few months especially I have felt my strength and stamina on the decline, so I am trying to figure it all out. About a month ago I decided to re-start a 5/3/1 cycle, an…

10 Miles Back Again

Formerly active member, taken a couple of years out as lifting fell way down my list of priorities. Two kids and a whole lot of drama later and I found myself as 220+lbs of weakness, decidedly south of vag and decided to do something about it. That was about 6 months ago, give or take, and I’ve been slowly ramping up my efforts since, while getting accustomed to fitting lifting into my new family life. Current stats: Height: 6 foot (still) Weight: 188.6 lbs Maxes (difficult to tell on many, …

40 is the New 20

Loving the TKD and my new pre-workout plan. Lost 6 of the 10 lbs I gained on the cruise without trying and while upping my calories and protein. In addition to the protein and carbs pre-workout I eat steak or chicken with sweet potato and veg after and then 5-6 oz of whatever meat I have before bed. A typical day after workout keto eating plan is as follows: Breakfast: 2 eggs with 5oz steak, 1/4c cheese, 1/2 avocado, tsp avocado oil (700 cals) Keto Coffee: 2 tablespoons MCT oil, 1 tablespoon…

DEEP WATERS | Long Hours | Instant Family | Travel

Edit: Transformation is over. Didn’t quite hit my goal. Current goal is to hit 2 plates on OHP, 3 on Front Squat and 5 on DL. I’m reasonably close to them and think at the end of the year is feasible. Well, here we go. Hopefully all the trash talking with bob and others will keep me motivated to stick to this until June 1. Starting stats: Height - 6’4" Weight - 227 BF - ~15%ish Arms: 17" Forearm: 13.5" Handles: 38" Calves: 17.25" Goal: Weight - 200 BF - ~7% Diet: I’ll be following a…

Donnerschweer: Getting Back At It

I am the least girly girl in the gym, my work out is a push pull type. Putting on muscles is my challenge. It is hard to get a stick figure to look more muscular. I play hard, then not to stay in one place for very long. There is always some fun things to do other then rest. Weed wacking any one? A beach vacations is a form of torture I broke my leg back in november, surgery and forced rest. I have been clear to walk now 2 weeks and can do stairs with my coffee. My physio cleared me for so…

Fabadab's Gym Log

Terrible name, but just ‘Fabadab’s Log’ was too short… I created a log last year but gave it up almost immediately, so I’m starting afresh for the 2020 T-ransformation challenge! I do keep a logbook when I’m in the gym, but having it on here too should hopefully keep me accountable. I’m 6’ tall, and currently weigh just shy of 13.5st (189lbs/85.7kgs). Pics at this point are right here. Ideally I’d like to be bigger, stronger, leaner, faster etc. etc., but for now I’m just aiming to see my abs…

Edit 9/4/2020 Starting GMM again now that I’m decently rehabbed AGAIN! Starting at post 174. This time it was rehab from both the appendectomy and epicondylitis. Edit 1/13/2021 Finished GMM months ago, epicondylitis is absolutely killing me, and I’ve been doing boring workouts and weighted walks ever since. Edit 6/3/2021 The first half of this year has been phenomenal for me. Epicondylitis doesn’t interfere with training; I’ve set PRs in all the major lifts recently; my body comp is better…

Welcome to my log, I will be using this log as a place to keep my thoughts and observations over the next few months, so expect pictures, food and training updates, nothing major exciting but hopefully I can get in the best shape I’ve been in. I spent the most of 2016 rebuilding and trying to get back to where I was in early 2015. The best shape I have been in was early 2015, in April of that year I had testicular surgery, which although was fairly routine and straight forward it hit me hard, I…
