I figure it's time we start a log to keep track of our progress, to make sure we are getting where we want and to keep us from having unrealistic expectations.
so I says to Brian “hey we oughta keep a log.” and he says “that’s a terrible idea!”
Then today at teh gym he says “you know we oughta keep a log!”
And I says “I know I toldja.” And he says “oh well let’s do that.”
So here’s teh log. Just a way to keep track of our lifting and size progress.
I don’t have my notebook on me, so there will probably be no lifts or pix until saturdayish.
So if you want to comment on something before then just imagine some progress and comment on it.
So mr popular listed our program, and I’ll list a few stats.
Age: 17
Height: 5’10
Weight: 195
I’m fatter than mr popular, probably to the point that we have about equal amounts of muscle. We both have different strengths, his are the pulling and legs, mine being the pressing movements…but we are starting to even out.
My main goals are similar to his. Obviously, I want to continue to get bigger and stronger, and that’s about it. There is no certain number I want to get to, or certain amount I want to lift. I just want to keep getting better. I want to be better than everyone else, including mr popular.
We are keeping this log together because our progress is virtually interdependent. We train together, we often eat together, etc. Neither of us made any serious progress until we began training together, and on average we tend to make about the same progress, so it makes sense to track it together.
that’s some mighty low volume. add some sets to the essential movements like squats and do less leg extensions, until you need the isolation movements.
