Fitness Log #3

Day 3: Sept 10, 2009

Squats - 5x5@30kgs

Bench Press - 5x5@25kgs

Inverted Rows - 3xF (15, 12, 8?) Bodyweight

Push-Ups - 3xF(20+, 15, 10?) Bodyweight

Reverse Crunches - 12,10,8

Early solo workout, was at the gym at 6am. Had Mickey-D's for breakfast.

Decided to add 5kgs instead of normal 2.5kgs, I could handle the weight and form was not compromised. Zoned out for a bit, was probably still sleepy.

Bench press was very light for me, concentrated on the form more to get the most of it, will continue to add 5kgs everytime same as squats.

Inverted rows was also new to me, it was a bit painful on the palms, but relatively quite ok.

Could probably have pushed more on push ups from 20+ on first set to 10? on the last is pathetic.

Abs still hurt, probably from all the exercises engaging the core. Form could improve as number of reps.

Finished 250ml of milk after workout. Bought another liter of milk for the day's consumption.

Lesson learned: NO FUCKING EXCUSES! I could have concentrated and pushed more on the exercises (squats, rows and pushups). Lack of workout partner should NOT hinder progress. Early workout not an excuse. Need to eat more and drink lots of water for recovery.

Personal reminder: NO FUCKING EXCUSES! Will go drink water now...
