*.* NEW- 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
I guess we filled up the old one... http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showthread.php?t=280149
Welcome to 2014! Now get your ass in top physical condition! No one else started it so here it is! **From the 2013 Thread** If you want to get back into lifting, or need a new lifting routine, START HERE: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wi...inner_Programs If you have questions about the SS programs, look here: http://startingstrength.wikia.com/wiki/FAQ Keep in mind that you're a novice lifter for a longer period of time than you think you are. Novice lifting can last anywhere from a few months to a year or two, depending on how hard you hit the weights and where you started. Once you've reached the point where you don't make regular progress on the SS program, you are ready to move on to the intermediate stage, which can last you for a good number of years. Find it HERE: http://madcow.hostzi.com/5x5_Program/Linear_5x5.htm If you're a very advanced lifter (many, many years of CONSISTENT weight training), then there are lot of programs out there, and which one you pick is simply a matter of preference. If you're really that advanced, you should know what works for you and what doesn't by this point. |

Rarely anyone there squats or deadlifts and they don't bitch at me for using chalk. It's 10 minutes from my house. No thanks, I'll stay.

It's a push-pull-legs rotation, 6 days a week.
Every first set is a 10RM. Go up in weight when the first set is 12 reps. Then, you only rest long enough to complete all your subsequent sets with 5 reps. If you can't get to 5 reps, you didn't rest long enough. If you can do more than 5, you rested too long. That's basically it. The only exercise I don't do this for is front squats and core exercises. Front squats are really susceptible to form breakdown once you get over 6-8 reps, so it becomes dangerous to do reps in the 10-12 range. Core exercises I always just do 3 sets of 15. Push day: Decline bench, shoulder press, incline bench, barbell upright row, dips, tricep rope pushdown, cable flys, cable crunch. Pull day: Weighted Pull-ups, narrow-grip seated cable row, wide grip cable pulldown, DB row, shrugs, underhand machine row, DB curls, hanging leg raise Leg: Front squat (4x6), RDL, Hack Squat, good morning, leg extension, leg curl, landmines |

Hey all,
Finally bought a pull-up bar. Seriously solid investment. |

I know that no one is probably interested, but here's my current workout.
Day 1: Squats, 45 Degree Single Leg Press, Dumbbell Lunges, Weighted Step Ups, Lying Leg Raises/Walking Planks (superset), Prowler (sled) with 45s/Farmer's Walk with 35lb KBs (superset) Day 2: T Bar Row, Lat Pull Down, One Arm Dumbbell Row, Curl to Shoulder Press Combo, Decline Crunches/Toe Touches (superset), 500m Row/Prowler with 45s/Wall Balls (superset) Day 3: Bench Press, Clean & Press, Dumbbell Lateral and Front Shoulder Raises (superset), Close Grip Bench Press, Cable Tricep Pressdown with Rope, Rear Delts, Bike Sprints Day 4: Dead Lifts, Front Squats, One Leg Dumbbell Romanian Dead Lifts, Hip Lifts, Goblet Squats/Burpees (superset) -- thinking about adding Deficits before the last superset Day 5: Assisted Pull Ups (with Resistance Bands), Seated Cable Row, Inverted Row/Push Ups (superset), Decline Oblique Crunches, Side Planks with Dumbbell Lateral Shoulder Raises, KB Clean & Press (6 rounds of 1 minute with as many reps as I can get) Current Goals: Dead Lift - 315 lbs (currently at 225 lbs) Pull Ups - at least 1 unassisted (can currently get about halfway up) Body Fat % - 21% (as of a month ago, I was at 28.9%) I also want to consistently squat over 200, but my trainer wants me to lower what I'm currently doing (about 195) to start doing pause squats and making sure my form is there for the heavier squats. |

nope - It fits on both sides of the door - when you start to do the pull ups - it's probably even safer than when it's just hanging there - Not even sure if that makes sense, but no - no drilling - other than all of the lady friends you meet after using the thing for weeks, then there may be some 'drilling'
If you know what I mean! |

Weekly weigh-in report...
Weighed in this morning at 292 and 12 ounces, down 5 pounds from last week. I knew I would lose weight because I stayed focused and intense and hadn't lost much the two prior weeks. Still focused! Total weight loss from beginning of the year: 125 pounds! Weight loss to go: 67 pounds |
