back/bi

i decided to do this with my back: width vs thickness <--interchange per week. do width when not deadlifting. do thickness when deadlifting.

note: i swear before december, i'll be doing weighted pull ups already

wide grip seated row
100x10-10

wide grip t-bar

with back day, i always keep this thing in mind: hands are hooks, let your damn lats do the work and pull with them and your elbows.

it's also fun to know that people at our block thought i was on steroids because of how I blew up in a short amount of time. i told them strict diet does that and lifting.

work is starting to become a hinder. im thinking of having my workout sched to be more flexible. we'll see

That's good stuff, Betcha you will be doing weighted pull-ups!

Good stuff kaibigan:)
 
I just now seen your journal man. Looked through it, nice progress.

Sorry you had the hardships that you mentioned in the beginning, but you have done what many are not willing to choose to do. Overcome. I will be watching from here on out bro!
 
thanks zero. sometimes i scan through my old online journal in this site, looking through my previous workouts from years and years ago. what a mess i must say.

guess weightlifting is an ongoing learning experience

anyways, with the way work is going, I wouldn't be surprised if I have to resort to having my own home gym.

to anyone who is familiar with a home gym or have their own home gym, please advice me on what to have/buy. thank you

The essentials would be a bench with a barbell and weights within your range. As well as a few dumbbells withing your weight range.

I got a nice bench, barbell, about 300lbs of weight, and a bowflex off a friend from church for dirt cheap. I give the bowflex a lil more credit than most, because in a pinch it does much better than nothing. I dont use it, but its there in case.

My buddy got a nice wrack which also enabled squats. A wrack with a bench and enough weights to accompany all the workouts you want should cover all the basic workouts. I would add a couple DB's.

Remember your workouts do not have to be fancy exacts only accomplishment in a gym that has every weight and machine of all shapes and sizes. Functionality is what counts. Doesnt have to be purty, doesnt have to be new. My weights have a little rust, but I am quite sure the 45lb plates still weight about 45 lbs lol
 
thanks for the info, zero

I second the power rack. I got one from Body Solid through Amazon and it was pretty cheap but it made a huge difference in my workouts. If you're home working out alone you can set the bars for safety so you don't have to worry about going heavy and trapping yourself under the bar!

It's great for squats, rack pulls, benching, etc, plus it has a nice pull-up bar as well.

Don't worry about it, if your strengh is improving & your looking better, I wouldn't worry about what the scale says so much.

~ Good Work !~
