*.* 2013 General Fitness Thread *.*
Welcome to 2013! Now get your ass in top physical condition!
**From the 2012 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. |

I do IIFYM for this plan, yes. Fave ON is Caramel Toffee Fudge. I only use a Multi on this plan. I use NOW Adam, one in the morning and one at night to split the dosage and hopefully make for better absorption. Normally, I don't use one because I eat enough fruits and meats and stuff that I shouldn't need it. |

So you've basically failed.
Try fasting.

Day 13:
Workout: Went pretty shitty. I slept horribly the night before. Only got about 6 hours before I had to get up and eat again in preparation for today's workout (had to work out very early because of other commitments for today). Had a bad stomachache by the time I went to work out, and had to rush it all. I felt like I was going to yak as I was driving to the gym. Had no energy due to the lack of sleep and the stomach thing was incredibly distracting. I think it was the milk I ate with my cereal, which had been open for a week. I dunno. Whatever it was, it hurt and sucked the life out of me for my workout, so I'm trying not to read in too much to what happened. RFESS - 3 sets, 5RM (easy to hit), 90%, 80% 5 reps Bench - 3 sets, 5RM (hit 4, still up in weight from last week, but it was a struggle), 90%, 80% 5 reps Deadlift - 3 sets, 5RM (Almost missed the last rep), 90%, 80% 5 reps Press - 3 sets, 5RM (hit 4, still up in weight, but it sucked like bench did) Row - 3 sets, 5RM All in all, it could have gone worse, I suppose. I still went up in my weights, just missed the last rep of bench and press to keep the same progression pace I had been on. Going to program next week as if I hit them this week, and see what happens. I think I just had a shitty workout and bad sleep. I can't conclude from this that it was the training or diet that made me miss. Nutrition: Crunch berries + skim milk Grilled chicken breast + ff mayo Sweet potato + grilled chicken Pita chips Oranges Totals: 2193 cals, 282g carbs, 37g fat, 169g protein |

Barely failing. On pace to lose about 9 lbs. I'm considering fasting for 2 days starting tomorrow.

Right on with the no Multi, its good that you get enough of the nutrition that you don't take one. My job makes life busy for me and sometimes I don't have enough time to get my daily intake in so I take Orange Triad twice a day.

Only had 240 calories today and ran another 5k. Surprisingly this felt great. I had to have burned about half a lb today. Fasting is a solid idea but I definitely can only do it for like 2 days at a time.

Three sets of three at 280 on the bench this morning. Next week will be the last week in the program. Based on performance thus far, I should hit two sets of two at 295 next Monday. I will probably check my max the week after that and then move on to another program for a bit. Either the Wendler 5.3.1 or back to my old routine of heavy days and light days.

Day 15:
Withings scales -- HOW DO THEY WORK?! Got on it, weight said 185.4, bodyfat 10.0%. Took a shower. Weighed again, weight 183.something, bodyfat 8.2%. Yesterday, it told me I weighed 180.9, with a bodyfat of 9.2%. The margin of error on this scale is ridic. Scales suck so much lol But, the wife wanted it, so I figured it would be better than nothing. Workout: Did the depletion workout, but did 4 sets fewer on legs than usual (2 less leg extensions, 2 less leg curls) because I had a soccer game tonight. But, it was cancelled because of lightning. Whoops. Oh well. I have a double header indoor tomorrow, so it's probably for the best, anyway. Hack squat - 3 sets, 15 reps Seated Leg Curl - 3 sets, 15 reps Incline BB Bench - 4 sets, 15, 15, 10, 10 reps Seated cable row - 3 sets, 15 reps Lat Raise machine - 3 sets, 15 reps DB curls - 3 sets, 15 reps BB Bench - 4 sets, 15, 15, 10, 10 reps Bent over row - 3 sets, 15 reps Nutrition: 2 lbs grilled shrimp Trutein Cinnabun shake ON Casein Chocolate Cake Batter shake Totals: 1220 cals, 38g carbs, 13g fat, 232g protein |
