Pseudonym Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 Looking at the photo in your intro topic, there's no way you're sitting at 20%. Even 15% would be on the high side, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzpoontang Posted November 30, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 Dropped the keto, was way too frustrating. Also decided to try out the German volume training 10x10 routine. Doing 10x10 for flat bench, bar curl, squats and deads. Chest day smash out the 10 sets then doing the usual tri and fly stuff afterwards. Bicep day doing the 10 sets then hammer curls and lat pulls plus bent rows. Then doing deads and squats together 10x10 on same day. Have been doing this for 4 weeks, have managed to reach ten sets of ten with bench squats and deads so have upped the weight, but haven't nailed the bar curl. Will post up numbers later when I get home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzpoontang Posted May 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Righto. Been over 3 years since ive posted. Early 2017 I was training hard getting good results and was motivated and consistent. Then I had surgery for a hernia, which halted things, then I broke my collar bone and cracked three ribs in a moto x crash, which halted things more. Didn't gym for quite a while, got slack with eating etc etc. Half way through last year I got some motivation again and started back in the gym, then had an accident at work and got a SLAP tear on my left shoulder/bicep. Couldn't do any upper body training and lost motivation again. I struggle with depression, which really doesn't help the motivation. I joined gym again 3 weeks ago, been going consistent and have pulled eating together. I am currently 77kg, way to high body fat percentage, and weak as piss. My shoulder is still limiting a lot of movements, but I am just going to work with it. My main goal is to get strength back to where I was when I first made this journal. Chest today: I cant do flat bench because of shoulder, but inc is okay Inc bench : 70kg x 6,6,5,4 60kg x 8,7,7 Inc DB press: 30kg x 6,5,5,4 20kg x 12,12,10,9 Inc DB fly: 25kg x 10,10,10,10 Rope pull downs: 55kg x 12,12,10,8 50kg x drop set to failure I will try and keep posting on here regularly Stats a few years ago from my diary 75kg 10-15% BF 1 rep max: Bench 117.5kg Squat 160kg Dead 175kg Stats today 77kg. Fat. Look shit Cant bench Squat 130kg Deads: Havnt been able to try any decent weight but can still move 100kg allgood. Anyway, any tips or motivation or critique etc welcomed!!!

nzpoontang Posted September 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 Went hardout on diet and cardio over the last two months to drop the excess body fat. Just getting back into some heavier lifts now, and am feeling real good. Shoulder is still very limiting, but working around it. Currently sitting 72kg-74kg Inc Bench 5 reps 95kg Deads 5 reps 140kg Squat 5 reps 130kg Military press 5 reps 55kg Have pretty much just been focusing on cardio and those four lifts, as well as basketball twice a week and muay thai when I can. Goal is to be as strong and explosive as possible while trying to keep body fat down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
