Lars' Log
I'd like to start up my own little log, as I think it's gonna keep me motivated a little bit more and it's a nice way to keep track of the work. And the benefit of knowing that there's gonna be someone who is able to look if I was working out as planned is a nice push in the right way.  As my work-life balance usually does not allow me to train on weekends and friday is the "driving day" I decided to hit the gym two times a week which also seems to work out with the time I need to recover between workouts. So my current plan looks like this: Mon - hit the gym Tue - cardio or some other sports (like to play table tennis with a buddy) Wed - Rope Skipping and working the heavy bag Thu - hit the gym again Fri - some light cardio if there's time Sat/Sun - free time to spend with my girl  I started to train with some linear progression in the mid of january and concentrated on the basic lifts. Lift - Starting weight January 17th - Current values from February 28th: Squat - 100kgx5x3 - 125kgx5x3 Overhead Press (Behind the Neck) - 40kgx5x3 - 57.5kgx5x2/last set 6 reps Deadlift - 90kgx5x1 - 122.5kgx5x1 Bench Press - 65kgx5x3 - 77.5kgx5x2/last set 6 reps Pull Ups - 8/8/6 - 5(+10kg DB)/7/6 (last 2 sets with 7.5kg) What really helped was reading some articles of Mr Rippetoe about food intake and not caring about gaining some fat. I was really afraid about fat gains the last years but decided to just sh... on it for one time and see what happens. The results until now are satisfying as I think. I gained about 4kg getting up from 75kg to around 79kg at 1.75m. Looking forward to the next session tomorrow.

Simplicity was one of my intentions. You know like in the KISS acronym. Keep it simple stupid.
I guess it's just to easy to get lost with too many exercises and so on. And btw Lars is a good name for a kid. How old is the boy?

Yeah all the plates here are labeled in kilograms. Some have the lbs also written on them but it is to confusing for me to calculate in the gym. I have a little widget here to convert lbs into kg and such when reading the logs on the laptop. But when using my phone for forum browsing I just do some rough guesses. Why can't 1kg equal to 2lbs?

Three and a half? Oh he is still in the terrible two. Between 2 and 22.
I'm from southern Germany.Today's training went nice and smooth. I just figured out that weight training with headphones is not working for me. It was just feeling funny and not right but I cannot explain it otherwise. Squats: Warmup: 20kgx10 50kgx10 80kgx8 105kgx3 Working Sets 127.5kgx5 127.5kgx5 127.5kgx7 Overheadpress (behind the neck) Warmup: 20kgx15 35kgx10 50kgx3 Working Sets: 60kgx5x3 (Have to do them again next week with the same weight. I felt the bar didn't move down enough.) Deadlift: Warmup: 20kgx10 50kgx10 80kgx5 105kgx3 Working Set: 125kgx5 Bench Press: Warmup: 20kgx10 40kgx8 50kgx5 70kgx3 Working Sets: 77.5kgx6 77.5kgx6 77.5kgx7 (Same weight as last time but the form was way better and I put out 1 rep more each set.) Pull Ups: With a 10kg DB 7/7/6 Finally I feel my grip strength increasing. Took some time I could feel it today that my grip is closer and I can hold the bar longer.
