Legion Kreinak's Training Log

[Legion Kreinak]

Well, I've decided to make my own post for this, just because it makes me feel special!

Well now, I'll post up yesterday's, then today's workout. I'm still figuring out the weights basically, but right now I just finished the deads, rows, and wide-grip chins... my back is broken! Haha, I love this feeling, now I know what I've been missing. I just hope I can progress enough. Gotta go buy some 2.5lb weights from Modell's soon though.

Chest/Calves
Flat Bench - 80lb - 5, 5, 5, 5, 5 (increasing next week, bad guess)
Inclined Bench - 40lb - 8, 8 (should I increase?)
Inclined Flies - 14lb/arm - 8, 8 (increase?)
Standing Heel Raise - 80lb - 15, 15, 15, 15, 15

Note on the heel raises, I can't really use too much (that was too easy though) because it's hard to lift it up if I make it too heavy, and I only have my lil' home gym (bench, weights, and that's 'bout it, heh) so I dunno what to do 'bout that. But should I increase on everything, even flat bench? My chest is sore as hell today, too! ^^ WHOO!

Back/Shoulders/Neck
Military Press - 60lb - 5, 5, 5, 5, 5
Deadlift - 80lb - 5, 5, 5, 5, 5
Upright Row - 40lb - 8, 8
Shrug - 80lb - 8, 8
Yate's Row - 60lb - 8, 8
Wide-grip Chins - BW - 8, 5
Neck Lifts - 10lb - 10

I dunno if my shrugs were heavy enough or if I do 'em right. Could ya' tell me any pointers, just in case. Also, the neck I did it where it works the front, I dunno the back of the neck one feels weird. Plus, I guess deads and other heavy lifts will work my neck anyways. Guessed way off on deads, but my back IS destroyed. Did the chins last, I was trembling to get up on the fifth, didn't even try for the sixth.

I LOVE THIS!!!! HAHA, GONNA GO GET A HUGE TUNA SANDWICH!

Join a gym?

If you were able to succesfully complete the rep guidelines you have set with proper form, then yes.

Go straight up and down.

Good luck, and stick with it.

also, when you asked for advice on upping the weight...its how YOU feel. If YOU feel that you can move up...then move it up.

 

[Legion Kreinak]

Yah, I guess so. I can't join a gym though, no access to one, no means of getting there... too much money anyway. The nearest gymis 3.4 miles, and like $150 for a yearly membership. I don't think it's worth my money until I really start needing it. I'd rather buy good food.

 

[jeremys]

yeah, i got a suggestion. eat some frickin beef instead of tuna, hippie! lol...

150 for a year isn't bad at all. the nearest gym from me (12 miles) is 35 bucks a month!

 

[Legion Kreinak]

I'm guessin' you don't train at the gym. Heh.

 

[jeremys]

hehe, i havent for 12 weeks now. now i go the the gym at school. full of asshole coaches though. thats why i like the idea of HST though. in and out very fast. maybe even before they coaches catch me.

 

[Legion Kreinak]

Heh, I hear ya'. Man, I need to start increasing my lifts. I feel weak compared to you guys. The 80-lb deadlift wasn't enough though. I'm guessing I'll use like 100 or 110. My bar's all rusty though, so the grip REALLY kills me.

 

[jeremys]

no need to compare your lifts to everybody elses. just check and see if your shit's increasing. if so, then you're on your way

 

[Legion Kreinak]

Yeah, very true. I mean, I was skeptical about once a week training, but I figure, if I seein' results, why fight it. Glad I got it all worked out now.

I'm still a lil' skeptical about creatine. I don't want them to find years down the road, it shrivels up your penis and makes your nipples burn with a firey passion. =P Okay, not that severe, but still...

But my parents are willing to support me in terms of all the food I need them to buy. I don't know if I get enough protein in my diet though. Check my other post, on what I decided to eat. The protein shake I was gonna get has 22gs per serving, 77-80 servings per container, at $27/container... is that any good? I'm guessing I should have like two shakes a day at least, plus lots of tuna, milk, turkey, and cottage cheese?

Well, even if let's say I didn't get 1g per lb of BW, I'd still make gains, just maybe not as much. Eh, a small price to pay. I can still kick the shit out of half the kids in my school. It's really sad, they're all so cowardly and such.
