Re: laser16's 5x5 log
Played racquetball yestarday afternoon, then last night went to the gym by myself and ran
some 200m intervals. I warmed up then sprinted 200m then walked 200m I did 7 of these before the gym closed I wanted to get to 10 but its probably ok since my last couple 200's weren't really sprints anymore.
Saturday lifted
4x5 squats 45,115,155,195 1x3 220 1x8 165
4x5 bench 45,95,145,185 1x3 210 1x8 155
barely got my 3rd rep on the triple I hope I can get to 225 on here before I have to reset but I am not sure its gonna happen.
4x5 row 45,95,115,145 1x3 175 1x8 135
3 sets of dips with a 35lbs weight on a chain. I got 8,6,3 not to happy with that.
3 sets of barbell curls with 65 lbs as many reps as possible. Don't remember what reps I got
3x8 rope pulls

Re: laser16's 5x5 log
Yesterday did 30 minutes of intervals on the treadmill with final interval at 8.1 mph for 2 minutes
Today lifted but the gym was super crowded so we changed the work out up a little bit
OH squats 4x5 45,45,45,45 never really did this exercise much plus its not a heavy squat day so I didn't push it to hard.
clean and press 4x5 75,95,115,115 I still can't clean right
dead lifts 205,255,280,305
incline situp 1x10 with a 25
incline twisting sit ups 2x10 with a 10

Re: laser16's 5x5 log
Our bodies have incredible muscle memory. If you got big and were in great shape at age 20-21, then do that exact same workout for a month or so, and your strength/fitness will come back much faster.
A personal trainer told my brother and I that when we were getting back into shape after taking a few years off. The results were so quick. Now that I'm back to where I was, no I'm trying to do new things. Like combining different muscles groups for workouts, changing routines, adding new excercises, doing different super sets.

Strength wise I'm stronger then when I was in shape before. My muscle memory got my bench from 135 to 185 very fast but after that I had to work. The big difference is that back then I ate like it was my job as putting on lean body mass was my primary concern. I no longer want to get big just strong and fit.

Re: laser16's 5x5 log
Ran today did a half mile warm up then ran sprints 200m on 200m off. Ran with someone else and we basically raced it was really hard, I almost puked at then end. Also about 3 weeks ago I decided to not eat bread or rice or any other processed carbs if I could avoid it and in just those 3 weeks I have noticed big changes in the definition of my abs so that is good.
