*.* 2014 General Fitness Thread *.*
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. |

214.8 this morning with just a t-shirt and light pants.
That's up from 176 from approximately a year ago. (Which I dropped in five weeks from 226 due to switching to a vegan diet and a severe case of the flu which progressed into minor pneumonia. It was a rough month from a dietary perspective to say the least.) That's basically a 40 lb. gain in a year on a vegan diet, working on my feet for no less than eight hours a day and now going to the gym for the last month (after a four year layoff). I'm pretty jacked about the gain. In fact, I'm going power lifting sets/exercises this week to celebrate. Just got finished with a benchfest tonight. 20 minutes on the elliptical. Standard width bench: 1 warmup set light 1 warmup set medium 5 sets of 5 reps Wide grip bench: 3 sets x 10 reps Narrow grip bench: 3 sets x 10 reps Bench 21's - 2 1/2 sets (Couldn't finish that last third set.) Supersetted the bench with Standing straight bar curls, seated dumbbell curls and bar preacher curls. |

40lbs in a year is a lot. Shit, 20lbs of muscle in 1 year is extremely hard to do for a natty.

Beginning to think he's trolling the fitness threads after his comments about kettlebells in Direkshun's thread.
