Tweaked my back a couple weeks and aggravated it again this Monday. So I've just been doing a lot of core stability exercises (plank, dying bug, bear crawl) to fix it. My workouts have just been pull-ups, presses, push-ups and bench press because I can't do any deadlifts, squats or swings. I might start swimming until I can get back doing my kettlebell cardio workouts.

Starting to gain a little weight because I haven't been able to workout with the same intensity and haven't changed how much I eat. Gotta start to diet, especially with the Newport Cup coming up where we'll be eating out a lot.

This was posted by one of the fitness guys I follow, good reminder for me on what "full" should be.

Quote:

You should eat only until you are about 80% full and put your fork down between every bite.

You should be a little hungry, but never "hangry". I like, and would suggest, being slightly underfed throughout the morning and afternoon, eating lightly here and there, and then filling up, but not "stuffing" yourself at night. Again, 80% full.

Was time to hit my shoulders and biceps hard, just to let them know the week isn't done yet! Arnold Press: 5 x 10 x 22.5lbs Standing DB Press: 15 x 22.5lbs, 12 x 27.5lbs, 10 x 32.5lbs, 8 x 38.5lbs, 6 x 44.5lbs DB Shrugs: 5 x 10 x 44.5lbs Superset: x 3 -DB Lat Raises: 10 x 22.5lbs -DB Front Raises: 10 x 22.5lbs Concentration Curls: 5 x 10 x 22.5lbs Hammer Curls: 15 x 22.5lbs, 12 x 27.5lbs, 10 x 32.5lbs, 8 x 38.5lbs, 6 x 44.5lbs, 115 (yes, 115) x 16.5lbs I've also been looking at my diet lately. As a student it is quite tough, but I'm maximizing my protein intake (100-140g daily) and trying to keep carbs to a minimum. I'm steadily losing bodyfat and gaining lean muscle.

Day 1: 5 sets of 10 push-ups 5 sets of 20 sit-ups 5 sets of 10 squats

[Abu3baid]

5 sets of 10 push-ups 5 sets of 20 sit-ups 5 sets of 10 squats I considered doing a max out for each, but it's still early and I'm a weakling.. I'm hoping by the end of week 2 or 3 when I bump the sets to 6 and 7 I will be able to handle maxing out better and that's really how I will measure my progress going forward.. I hope if I can stick to a routine this will help getting me into doing a little more, and living a much healthier life style.

Sorry I do not remember the names, but used my new kettlebell (35 lbs) 4 sets of 15 reps swing 4 sets of the (as many as could do) clean(?) each arm. (Right side I can do 10+, left side I am lucky to do 4-5) pushup and setup in between those I am trying to introduce more strength, rather than just running, and light dumbbells curls. Also if you want swing a club fast ... pick up a club after lifting the kettlebells ... it feels like nothing!

One more week taking a break from heavy lifting. Back is feeling great but my chiro said the moment it feels good again is when it's at it's more vulnerable. So more push-up and pull up workouts with my hip flexor stretching and glute drills.

First day back also after a slight back tweak. Attribute it to hitting a large bucket the day before. My break was two and a half weeks. Mostly just too busy

and not because of the back. Going to try and be more consistent AGAIN.
