Height: 6'2" Weight: 181.4 Age: 18 So I've been working out on and off since Thanksgiving 2011, but I've lost a lot motivation, so I'm hoping this will help. I've been doing cavefish's program the whole time, sticking to it pretty rigidly for a few months when I started lifting, then a lot more half-assedly once I looked a way I was happy with. With summer coming up and all, I'm hoping to get into better shape and quit being a shlub. Plus, my friend Comrade Cakewalk has been harassing me about this for loving forever. So here's me:    I've got fairly limited equipment given that I'm working out at home, I'll post a picture of what I got next time I workout. I do as much free weight stuff as I possibly can because of that.  I'm not sure about this, but I'm open to changing this if it's too easy. For now, it's curl 40 pounds for three sets at 20 reps in five months. I can currently do one set at 25lbs and two at thirty, but that's with questionable form. I'm also hoping to maintain my current weight, or at least stay under 190 pounds, but that's not toxxable anymore. You can see the rest of my lifts at my Fitocracy. My form on a lot of these might not be great, but I'll be fixing that. Anyways, I'll be following a modified cavefish routine with a few different exercises based on what I've got available to me and a few more sets where I can manage them.

Weighed in at 180 before I lifted today: Incline Dumbbell Bench Press: 20 lb x 20 reps (+47 pts) 25 lb x 20 reps (+50 pts) 25 lb x 20 reps (+50 pts) 30 lb x 14 reps (+50 pts) 30 lb x 10 reps (+48 pts) Dumbbell Bench Press: 25 lb x 20 reps (+49 pts) 30 lb x 12 reps (+48 pts) 35 lb x 11 reps (+50 pts) 25 lb x 15 reps (+46 pts) 25 lb x 15 reps (+46 pts) Machine Chest Fly (Pec Deck): 70 lb x 20 reps (+14 pts) 80 lb x 15 reps (+14 pts) 90 lb x 15 reps (+15 pts) 70 lb x 15 reps (+13 pts) 70 lb x 15 reps (+13 pts) Standing Calf Raises: 100 reps || weighted || 50 lb (+46 pts) I feel loving exhausted, but pretty good. Here's my workout stuff, just so you guys have an idea of what I'm working with. Here's the machine. It works well enough for everything except for squats - the attachment for that scares me a bit. I still do them, but if anyone has any ideas for alternatives I'd like to hear them. I've got dumbbells up to 50 pounds, and I can squat more than that, so they're not really an option.  I've got an Arctrainer elliptical thing. I haven't been doing any cardio, but it's always an option.

If all you've got is that few DBs, give bulgarian split squats a try: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CvEs-TOIKM. I don't think there's a leg press bit on your machine but looks like leg raises and maybe laying curls? Please don't skip leg day. Twink. Also, Jesus Christ that volume. Good luck with that man.

Yeah, no leg press, but there's stuff for extensions and curls. I'll try those squats next Monday - that's leg day for me. Thanks man.

Most of what I've got to work with is a single dumbbell myself, it's surprising how much you can do with it, though! I'll be keeping my eye on this log, for further ideas!

Weak. I'm loving tired from working all day, but now I'm gonna go lift and shame you. Right after I finish stuffing my face.

Pull-Up: 8 reps (+68 pts) 8 reps (+68 pts) 8 reps (+68 pts) 8 reps (+68 pts) Bent Over Two-Dumbbell Row: 30 lb x 12 reps (+44 pts) 30 lb x 12 reps (+44 pts) 35 lb x 12 reps (+45 pts) 40 lb x 12 reps (+47 pts) 40 lb x 12 reps (+47 pts) Close-Grip Front Lat Pulldown: 80 lb x 12 reps (+13 pts) 90 lb x 12 reps (+14 pts) 100 lb x 10 reps (+15 pts) Seated Cable Row: 110 lb x 10 reps (+35 pts) 110 lb x 10 reps (+35 pts) 110 lb x 10 reps (+35 pts) Wide-Grip Pulldown Behind The Neck: 60 lb x 15 reps (+24 pts) 80 lb x 15 reps (+28 pts) I think I could have gone harder this workout, but there's stuff I need to do today that I can't be completely exhausted for. We'll see next week.

Comrade Cakewalk posted:How much you eat anyway? I don't keep track and I probably should be, but I'm not too concerned with my weight right now. As long as I put on muscle mass, it doesn't matter to me if I'm maintaining my weight or gaining some. On workout days I drink two protein shakes, so that's about 100g protein plus whatever's in the 4 cups of milk. Rest days is usually half that. Beyond that I just eat when I feel hungry, but I usually eat pretty healthy. Who knows?

Hey, feeling better: Pull-Up: 8 reps (+68 pts) 8 reps (+68 pts) 8 reps (+68 pts) 8 reps (+68 pts) Bent Over Two-Dumbbell Row: 30 lb x 20 reps (+48 pts) 35 lb x 20 reps (+49 pts) 35 lb x 20 reps (+49 pts) 35 lb x 20 reps (+49 pts) 40 lb x 20 reps (+51 pts) Seated Cable Row: 110 lb x 12 reps (+36 pts) 120 lb x 12 reps (+38 pts) 130 lb x 12 reps (+41 pts) Wide-Grip Lat Pulldown: 60 lb x 20 reps (+26 pts) 80 lb x 20 reps (+30 pts) 100 lb x 20 reps (+34 pts) Wide-Grip Pulldown Behind The Neck: 90 lb x 15 reps (+30 pts) 100 lb x 15 reps (+32 pts) So I tried lifting Tuesday, but still felt like poo poo. Made it through my incline press stuff before feeling completely exhausted, and decided to call it there to keep from hurting myself. Whatever though, I'm back on track.

Hey, did arms day yesterday. The Fitocracy app was glitching out on me, though, so I'm not going to post the stuff from it. I sure didn't do six sets of 35 pound lateral raises - I wish though! It's mostly similar to last time, anyways. Just keeping this updated.

Still lifting, blah blah blah. Fitocracy has been making GBS threads out on me so I haven't really been logging bs on it. It pisses me off. But anyways lifted Friday, today too.

Got in a car accident, you rear end in a top hat. I'm fine, car is in bad shape. Didn't lift Friday because of that, probably not going to today either to give myself a bit more time to recover. Not sure about later this week yet, we'll see.

Thanks, y'all. Back in the gym after resting a week and it's business as usual. Don't feel like formatting my fitocracy bs again because who cares, but I'm still getting swoler. Bulgarian split squats still kicking my rear end, etc. It's a good time.
