So as you can probably guess i'm starting up a training log which i'll hopefully be updating every week just to keep track of my progress and see if this motivates me, it'll probably be mostly gym but i'll probably include my martial arts training as well if anything relevant happens.
Ok so first 2 days in and im updating this now so i get in the habit of updating it- my plan is as follows... Monday- either another martial arts class (still thinking about it) or working on biceps, shoulders and legs Tuesday- Triceps and abs Wednesday- day off for volunteering Thursday- Jiu jutsu Friday- Kickboxing Saturday- Chest, legs and abs Sunday- Biceps/ shoulders and triceps The exercises are sort of a mix between calisthenics and weight machines- im not a fan of freeweights but i try and throw in some dumb bells now and then, lifting is done in dropsets- 20, 18-15, 12-10, 8, 5 , shifting up the weight each time. So thats the first entry- if anyone has any suggestions or questions(hopefully suggestions i really don't know what i'm doing sometimes) then i am all ears
Wow- Been a while since i updated this- workouts had to change due to changes at the gym- I've had to take a month and a half off due to 2 consecutive injuries, but anyway i'm back now- New routine is still being refined but using today as an example i've come up with a rough template for the gym, starting off my workout with shoulder/bicep excersizes using light dumb bells (this is after stretching out obviously)- this is followed by 3 sets of 10 Lat pulls at 60kg, 2-3x10 bicep curls at 45 kg, 3x10 chest at 45 kg. I will then do 2-3 circuits of the E-Gym system which- whilst not as high a weight as the regular machines- does provide an effective full body work out.
Gym routine is the same but i've also started running and doing some calisthenics with a friend of mine on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
