Make a Plan!!!

[b fold the truth]

I just want to encourage everyone to make a workout plan. I plan my workouts 8 weeks in advance, stating goals and where I would like to be in that time.

I usually type mine up, save it, and print it out. 1 week takes on typed page and I make a booklett 8 pages thick...stapled together. It allows me to look at what I have to do in advance, what I did last week, and what I will do next week. It requires me to sit down and think about what weights to use, how many reps, what exercises, and how I will progress...WEEKS in advance. It requires thought, planning, and for you to rationalize WHY you do ever single exercise and where to place it in your program...

Does anyone else do this?

Why do you NOT do this?

I dont, but am thinking about starting.
I just need to decide which PL meet I'm going to do 1st.

I have always done this and I could not imagine how I could workout without my book. It only makes things easier.

Everyone should have a plan...WEEKS in advance.

A comprehensive plan??

A guided document showing future development for 5, 10, and 20 years?

Sorry, I still have my regional and city planning class on the brain from mid-terms.

Really, I never right down anything, but I do envision where I would like to be. The only thing I have to do is train hard. . .thats it. Everything should be kept as simple as possible.

I just have a picture of Brock Lessner... and Ronnie Coleman... and then I edit these pictures to make them about 200lbs and 20" bigger in height... then I know my goal... ifI fall short, I should be at Mr.Olympia standards...

I dont have a plan, I dont know what I am going to do until I step into the gym.

Intuitive training, I train around how my body feels. I started doing this because I have alot of injuries, and get injured allot.
But thats powerlifting for yah
