Hi guys, just joined this site and wanted to say it looks really good compared to some that I've seen so far, nice to see you guys supporting and motivating each other. [emoji106]
So it looks like a good place for me to start a training log, more so to keep myself motivated and accountable, but it would be great for some feedback too!!
Current stats.
25 years old, 89.2 kg,
bodyfat unknown, 5 years training, the last 18 months being the most serious, and of course the most productive, go figure. [emoji13]
I used to compete in athletics, 100m sprinting, and weight training and diet was tailored specifically for that, but at 90kg bodyweight and only ever managing 100m in 11 seconds flat as a pr, I decided last year that my time could be better spent just building my physique, which was always a passion of mine.
So I hopped straight on to a 5x5 program and adopted an 'eat all around me' diet approach, (I used to get free pizza once a week, I was such a good customer.)
After 4 months of bulking, I'd hit 99.2kg bodyweight, with these lifts being my personal bests.
Squat: 150kg 5x5
Deadlift: 180kg 1x5
Bench: 125kg 5x5
Pendlay Row: 115kg 5x5
After this spell, work commitments and a new found long distance relationship started to throw me off rail, too much food, too much drink, and too few heavy weight sessions. [emoji20] One thing I got from this period was time to study and understand the basic principles of dieting so come March I started my first ever cut, no time deadline or concrete goal in mind, just wanted to achieve a look I was happy with, with the goal being to maintain or regain some of my strength, maintain muscle and of course drop fat, all while juggling my military job and relationship obligations.
Progress pic below.
So if this log would interest any of you guys please let me know, I will hopefully be posting up details of my cutting protocol later, calories, macros, training split, etc.
