•°¤*(¯`°ÑåtãLî€$°´¯)*¤°• Diary
Well after a bit of time i feel confident enough to start my own diary..
I'm a few weeks into my training and i think i'm doing quite well.. And Since getting myself some much needed guidance from 'TKD Guy'  i have made some good progress..My starting stats were:- on March 4th Age:26 Height: 5'6 Weight: 177lbs Body fat: 36% ( i know!!! not good!!) I started taking T5s and Ephedrine to kick start my weight loss.. (which i have finished using now, i've run out!!) as i'd been inactive for quite some time.. I completely changed my diet, CUT all choc, carbs lowered and increased my protein.. which was a big deal for me.. i have a few MAJOR fobias.. (im strange!!) then a few weeks in 'TKD Guy' took me under his wing, gave me LOTS of sound advice, Training regime and so forth... and so i started on my New routine... I started hitting the HIIT hard, combined with 3x weekly Weights.. MON- 30 mins HIIT on rower -Chest, shoulders, Tri's WEDS- 30 mins HIIT on rower - Legs, Abs FRI- 30 mins HIIT on rower - Back, Bi's and at home i have my own Punch bag.. (used to do boxing) and i have a go on that as often as i can, just for a bit of cardio (aggression) workout!! My first recorded weight lifts were:- (all 3x8 rep sets) BENCH PRESS- 15kg INCLINE DB PRESS- 6kg DB FLYS- 6kg MILITARY PRESS- 6kg LATERAL RAISES- 6kg FRONT RAISES- 6kg DIPS (weighted)- 45kg DB KICK BACKS- 6kg CABLE EXTENSIONS- 25kg SQUATS- 6kg LEG PRESS- 50kg LEG EXTENSIONS- 40kg HAM' CURLS- 40kg CALF RAISES (on leg press)- 90kg DB TOE RAISES- 10kg SIDE BENDS- 10kg LAT PULL DOWNS- 30kg BENT DB ROWS- 6kg SHRUGS- 9kg DB CURLS- 8kg HAMMER CURLS- 8kg CONCENTRATION CURLS- 8kg FOREARM CURL (palm up)- 6kg (palm down)- 6kg and now 5 weeks later im at:- Weight: 160lbs Body Fat: 29% (getting there!!)BENCH PRESS- 25kg INCLINE DB PRESS- 10kg DB FLYS- 10kg MILITARY PRESS- 10kg LATERAL RAISES- 10kg FRONT RAISES- 9kg DIPS (weighted)- 35kg DB KICK BACKS- 10kg CABLE EXTENSIONS- 35kg SQUATS- 12.5kg LEG PRESS- 100kg LEG EXTENSIONS- 50kg HAM' CURLS- 55kg CALF RAISES (on leg press)- 130kg DB TOE RAISES- 15kg SIDE BENDS- 17.5kg LAT PULL DOWNS- 40kg BENT DB ROWS- 10kg SHRUGS- 20kg DB CURLS- 10kg HAMMER CURLS- 10kg CONCENTRATION CURLS- 10kg FOREARM CURL (palm up)- 8kg (palm down)- 8kg In 1 weeks time I'm taking my son to London for a Heart operation, so a week away from any form of exercise  and i thought when i get back i might kickstart a new regime??? I was thinking MON- 10 mins HIIT (Rower) - Chest, Shoulders, tri's TUES- 40 mins HIIT (Rower) WEDS- 10 mins HIIT (Rower) - Legs, Abs THURS- 40 mins HIIT (Rower) FRI- 10 mins HIIT (Rower) - back, Bi's then at the weekends, just chill or do some bag work?? anyways.. if you got this far into the post.. Thankyou for reading!!  •°¤*(¯`°ÑåtãL´¯)*¤°•

Yeah this will be the hardest thing i've seen him go through, but he's spent more time in hospital than he has out... so i'm getting used to it now.. it's not fair that they have to go through so much at a young age

I always train in the evenings...I like it better actually! (I am not a morning person!
) If you are planning on eating before hand (which is a good thing) you should try to eat around an hour before you plan to workout...If you have to eat closer than that I would recommend a light meal that is high in protein. Good Luck!

In my opinion, training at night isnt such a good idea, becuase its like drinking coffee, cant sleep after it. But, you may be differnt, and I'd suggest eating before the gym so you wont get hunger pains that might offset your workout. Good luck.
