My training and diet log.

Ahh, just preparing to hit the gym for day 2 of SL 5x5. Looking forward to it. Pretty sure OHP is gonna be easy as I've reduced that most due to problems I get when I push too much in this movement. I get to increase squats today and I'm deadlifting. Nice. I love deadlifts, they've saved my lower back and seriously increased my side kick power.
Gr8 to hear bro. Deads and squats, gotta love em man!

Split B today

WU:
3x2 mins skipping round the gym singing "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious..."

3x2 mins heavy bag

Squat WU: 1x8@bar
1x8@ 50 kg
OHP WU: 1x8@ bar
1x8@ 25 kg
Deadlift WU: 1x6@ 55 kg
1x6@ 75 kg

Work:
Squat:5x5@ 92.5 kg 206 Lbs
OHP:5x5@ 30 kg 66 Lbs
Deadlift:1x5@ 95 kg 209.5 Lbs

Really concentrated on OHP form today. Felt good, no niggling little pains anywhere.

Nearly forgot deadlift is only one set! Still, made it the best set I possibly could.

If you have the means bro would love to see a vid of your OHP.

Yeah bro no problem. I'm just about to film my mate squatting so I can easily bang out a few OHP for you. I'll be wearing jeans and T-shirt though. I'm done training for the day. Just popping into the gym to help my mate with his squats.
 
Ok diet for today.
Total cals: 2,836
Carbs: 33% 235g
Fats: 34% 110g
Protein: 32% 232g

Ok I went over my max far intake by 25g but I cleared my min protein intake by 32g so not a total failure.

The only cardio I've done today was the skipping and bag work I did to warm up. But I'm going kickboxing tomorrow evening which'll be 90 mins of pretty intense cardio.

:)

Couple of things I've noticed recently. I haven't weighed myself or tested bf% since before Christmas however the mirror is telling me I've lost weight, well fat. My love handles are barely there and last night I saw a (rather feint) shadow under my top abs not much but more than I've seen in a couple of years.

Secondly, even though I've been running/jogging less recently my aerobic/anaerobic capacity seems to have increased, I can go harder on bag work etc before I get puffed out and my hits are a lot harder I also seem to be running faster when I do take myself out for one. Not much, it's like 7:55 per mile rather than 8:00 per mile on average.

Sparring tonight! Time to break out the oxygen bottle! >:)
 
Just got back from kickboxing. What a killer session!!!! The instructors decided to destroy us tonight as it was the first session of the new year! Ha! 90 minutes of high intensity cardio! I'm glad I didn't go to the gym today!

Used the oxygen4energy and it was great for recovery between rounds, it's not a permanent effect of course and as soon as you start again you get pretty much just as knackered after about a minute...

Diet for today.
2,910 cals total
Carbs; 30% 191g
Fats: 40% 120g
Protein: 30% 216g
Had a bag of almonds which is probably what pushed my fat intake up...

Damn I'm totally destroyed right now! I'm dragging my bruised self into a HOT bath.

Oh yeah, Zed suggested 1,000 mg taurine for the back pumps I get when kicking (yeah strange right?) it has helped some, but I think I'm gonna try upping the dose a bit. maybe 2,000 mg.

2000mg on the Taurine should be fine bro.
Bro there is quite a disparity between your bench and your rows. So on your rows I would suggest going to a 10x3 to get your weights closer. Add weight to the bar and do 10 sets of 3 reps.
Dont wanna get you get imbalance injureies.
Nice workouts here bro!

Made sure to raise the bar till it was behind my head on the OHP. I'm glad I set the OHP at a light start weight, gives me a chance to work on form.
