Jdid: In regards to fitness? I want to start moving more bodyweight exercises in my routine....I want to get really good at running and bodyweight endurance and rucksack marching(backpacking with heavy ass weight). Lifting goals are:
Short Term
Bench: 300x1
Squat: Who fucking knows anymore lol????
Deadlift:500x1
Military press:185x1
Longer Term (6 months)
Bench: 315x3
Squat: 405x1
Deadlift: 550x1
Been doing lots of cardio......
Saturday: 16 mile bike ride
first part: 13.5 miles, medium to fast
second part: 2.5 miles as fast as possible 30 mph+ on some parts
Sunday: Ellyptical machine 15 minutes heart rate maxed at 196 bpm
Monday: ellyptical machine 15 minutes faster
Also:
Bench : 2x5x225
1x4x225
Comments: I didnt fail the 5th on the 3rd set but I probably would have if I tried it. Benching strength is not good I expected to be doing 225x8 or so, I probably could have only gotten 6
On a good note, I got 2 brand new 45's that I am donating to my gym so I am heading out to deadlift now!
(Thanks andalite I checked play-it-again sports like you said, the old rusty used ones were only $10 cheaper though so I bought new)

Comments: Fun workout, but not great. I remember hearing that most people lose 5% strength after 2 weeks of no lifting, and I thought oh that isnt much. But 5% of 405x5 is 385x5. Shit. Anyway 410 felt really heavy and I couldnt have gotten a 3rd rep even I HATE LOSING STRENGTH! I went to do another set but I talked to a girl for 30 minutes and thought the rest would help, buyI just lost my aggression and could barely do 385x1 lol I did really like pullthroughs though, good stuff!

Your strength will come back. Look at me....500 to 455 to 415 lol....and still feeling like crap. But, I'm doing other things to maintain my strength at around 400-450 and then in a few weeks once my home gym is set up I'll bounce back training hard. I figure that I'll be back at 500 but at a better level by December or so. Life happens and you got to roll with it

Yeah I find it usually only takes me a week to get back strength if I only missed a week

Watch out for those skirts T-block, number one distraction in the gym haha, I hope she was hot. Yeah man muscle memory is an amazing thing, once you get to a certain level of strength you'll always be able to go back to that level much easier after you take time off. Dont sweat it and too bad about that backpacking trip I was looking forward to hearing how that went.
yea i hate losing strength thats why i just hop back on teh juice lololol
