Ye... that was all i did. I got in and i wasn't feeling good before, i honestly can't believe i ate that much pizza and well, i felt like shit. I felt like puking, and felt so damn lazy, 125 honestly felt like 200pounds lol. Just unracking it was brutal so i went home. I wasn't going to attempt 145 and sacrifice my form and puke all over. I will go in tomorrow and kill that shit.

Notes

Okay, a lot of stuff. I will start off with squatting.

Well, since I have started this new block my progress just has not been the greatest. I do like the new block, but damn I feel weaker each week I go and workout. Compared to my block 1, this block I am doing Bulgarian Split Squats (Monday), Front Squats (Thursday), Reverse Lunges (Thursday), Deep Squat Practice (Thursday), OH Squat (Friday). My block 1 I was doing Front Squat (Monday, Thursday), OH Squat (Friday).
Comparing the two, it just seems that there is no rest for legs, legs are almost each workout, and I am not sure if its too much for me, or I am just not used to that much volume and will get used to, but my progress has sucked. Even my upper body progress as well sucks, just cause the increase in what im doing.

I don’t know if I will get used to it or not, but I’ll put the two blocks in here and maybe someone can chime in.

I have some stuff to talk about stamina and endurance, but I have to go out for few hours so I’ll be back and make a new reply with that. Hopefully someone can help me on my little dilemma.

Well, shit has been pissing me off so much lately. Its like im losing motivation....

I want to hit the gym so badly, but nobody can drive me and its not like i can take a bus there or bike, i live out in the countryside, and no city busses come here, nor can i bike its atleast 15k away from here.


Apart from that, is it possible to sleep wrong and have excruciating back pain? I know its not from something i did, because i woke up this morning and couldn't get out of bed at 7, so i slept till 8 and it still killed. Its in my back, on the right lat and it kills. Its like a pain where it sucks the breath outta you. Know what im talking about? :S

Hmmm i think I've had something similar to that before it usually goes away soon though. If it keeps up though be careful man. On a side note it might be an interesting change of pace to do a 30k bike ride there and back to the gym. You used to be really into cardio didnt you? You might want to try it on day where you cant get a ride. Take it slow on the way there but treat it as a hard cardio on the way back

 

[ramnares]

Well I'm not sure about the 30k bike ride like TBlock's suggesting but if you're finding it hard to get to the gym maybe you can do some stuff at home instead? You can definitely do push-ups, pull-ups and core workouts at home just to keep you motivated until you get a more reliable transport going.

yeah lol I thought that.

I used to be a pretty racist guy when I was 13 and 14 but I managed to sort it all out now

Good lol cause if you don't sort that stuff out it seems large and strong members of the race you don't like tend to sort it out for you On a side note isnt england like 85% + white?

although according to statistics the majority of immigrants and illegal immigrants come from poor european countries like Romania, there are areas in England that are heavily asian populated....

I have no idea what percentage is white.

It was only minor racism anyway its not like we beat up immigrants or anything like that lol.

 

[Andalite]

I would be very racist to some of the Indians in the UK lol. And I am Indian. LOL!!!!
