My previous log (second post explains thread title.) Ugh, I don't want to read your whole OP, what's your deal: I got fit last year. This year I'm going to get strong. Also, I'm going to become a worthwhile human being. So last year I went from this: ![]() To this: ![]() For this year: First things first, I'm going lose the few pounds I put on over Christmas break, but that's not a goal, that's just a thing I'm gonna do because I already miss my abs. My actual goals: By June 31st:
Other things in store for this year: I'm going to join a gym (probably a climbing wall place actually) to encourage myself to get out of the house, be around people, and have access to a barbell set again! I'm picking up playing the piano after a 15 year break. How is this YLLS material you ask? While my body may look decent, if my body is constantly in front of a computer playing Mass Effect and browsing imgur I'm going to end up being a pretty worthless human being. I'll have before and after video even! Within six months I'll be either getting a new job, or working on behalf of a different company (Yay contract work.) I won't be posting diet details at the start. Once I start bulking I'll start posting my diet until it becomes routine. You want to know what I eat now?
I'm also going to be buying myself a new avatar since I can say with confidence that I achieved my goals last year.

Following, good luck on your new log. Let me know what you think about Stone Gardens if you join up there. I live close to the Ballard location.spidoman posted:Also, this year I resolve to be lazy and not manually delete the Fitocracy points from my Copy/Paste job. Mewse automated this already.

I've been a terrible person lately in every sense, tons of cereal not a lot of working out. But I've got my membership to Stone Gardens and I'm going three times a week. Because there is no possible way I'm going to blow 60 bucks a month and not get ripped with awesome fingers and forearms. Today was good, but I definitely need a snack during or before climbing. Only annoying thing about the place is the fact that climbers enjoy doing gymnastics in the squat rack. 30 minutes of climbing - 30 minutes of weight training, give or take. spidoman fucked around with this message at Jan 22, 2013 around 03:54 |

Step 1: Do pull ups nearly every day for a year. Develop huge calluses. Step 2: Start rock climbing. Tear all of your calluses off. But it's totally worth it. Working on V2's now. I warm up with pull-ups, then climb until I tear a callus. Tape my hands and lift for the rest of the time.

Did my first V3 route today! It was a pretty easy V3, but still felt really good. I've also started doing 3 sets of 5 45lbs pull-ups after climbing. (USER WAS BANNED FOR THIS POST)
