2014 goals:

-complete 10,000 KB challenge to start year, not in a month though
-bodyweight <250 at some point in the year, current goal is Mar 1
-Lift weights, lifetime PR in at least one lift at a bodyweight <260, maybe even significantly less if diet continues to go well
-bodyfat <15%
-Don't get bored. Do something that's not lifting weights if I need to like walking, hiking, strongman, cycling, swimming, just something new so as not to get bored.

Both would be good considering your log is "Yugo's SS and Basketball Log" and they both seem to be missing from the log.

My log really should read more like "Yugo's sometimes meh/sometimes entertaining log" or something. I mean. I did 5/3/1 most of 2012 and it still just said SS. What I did in 2013 was much more similar to SS than 5/3/1.

Good call on the bball. I'm trying to remedy that as since getting unsick I'm shooting instead of doing machine cardio.

Pretty positive anyone with visible abs can probably run a sub 7 mile.

Last year was pretty much a cluster**** for me. A lot of illness set me back ~3 months in total. Dieting gone bad. Etc.

So this year I'm setting some more reasonable goals. I assume only 5 months of actual progressing through a slow bulk. I need to cut for 2 more months to reach my target weight (75 kg/165 lbs @ 6'). Then a slow bulk until June or so (3 months), followed by 1-2 months of cutting/maintenance. Then a slow bulk with a month's cut or so in there I figure. Shave off at least 1.5 for vacation (3 weeks planned), illness, minor injuries etc. However it pans out exactly 5 months is fine by me and seems pretty realistic.

I figure I can increase squat/DL by 10 kg for each of the first 2 months, then 5 kgs last 3. Bench, 5 kg 2 months then 2.5. Press 2.5 kg then 1 kg.

So starting lifts/goals, all in 5RMs:

Squat: 107.5 kg/237 lbs ----> 142.5 kg/314 lbs
Bench: 80 kg/176 lbs ----> 97.5 kg/215 lbs
Press: 57.5 kg/127 lbs ----> 65.5 kg/144 lbs
Deadlift: 117.5 kg/259 lbs --> 152.5 kg/336 lbs

Body fat should never be above ~14% (non-DEXA), I'll cut whenever I get there, oscillating between 10 to 14.

I have had goals in mind for six weeks or more but not got around to typing them up. I'm going for a similar style of goals to last year but more conservative:

(1) Weight down to 190 pounds or less (I started the year at 212)

(2) Body Fat on my scales below 25% (I started the year at 32.9%)

(3) Average three or more days a week where I exercise 50 minutes + over the year (I'm not doing calculations though)

(4) 50 press-ups (push ups) without stopping

(5) 30 minutes on the elliptical trainer at level 20 with spm averaging over 90

I have no idea if these goals are consistent with each other, but I will give them a spin.

5. Keep improving oly form
Mid year-ish bump.

1. Not established, but equipment is slowly building. Have rack, bar, some plates. Maybe functional for my secondary lifts by end of year.

2. So far, so good!

3. On track maybe? 5kg squat, 10kg deadlift and 5kg bench in the rest of the year seem doable.

4. Done, except wife probably won't. Or maybe.

5. Probably the weakest effort on this front. Im a few bumpers short of getting something setup at home which would make it possible. Would like to clean 100kg this year.

4. Bw+bf%: Pipe dream is 180 at 10-12%. 170-175 is more likely.
1. I think I could do an easy triple. If I Monte it up, maaaaybe a 5RM. Definitely by EOY.
2. Stalled at 285. But brogress might be mine again. Will see when I test new 1RM next week. Hoping for 290 or 295.
3. Later reps would be ugly, but I think I could do this now.
4. Stalled at 170. Whatever. Maybe revise my goal to 180@ 13% bodpod/17% loco approved

6. Press 1RM of BW (~190ish)

3-6 are essentially 9 month goals, since I'll be kettlegarding for the first quarter of the year or so, but whatever.
Successful with 1 and 2. 5 seems possible. Giant lol at everything else.
