bulk up

Making slow progress. Have added back 2kg back, another 3 left to put back on. My lifts are progressing, getting my bench press squats and deadlifts. Already beaten my previous deadlift of 65kg, now on 75kg, and close to beating previous squat limit of 68kg.

Just need to get more sleep and more food :)

OK so I’ve been to the gym 3x this week, started the stronglifts programme of 4 exercises a session, 5×5. Getting used to the barbell squats and bench presses as opposed to dumbells. Deadlift form is a bit shaky, must concentrate on doing a few good warmup sets to get my form right before going for the actual 1×5 set.

Foodwise hasn’t been great, had an important presentation on thursday so was lacking in sleep and food, but this week should be better I hope. At least I didn’t have dessert today when we went out for dinner!

Well, i made an ok effort at this, then got ill and then started fasting, so now I’ve lost 5kg :S

Will be getting back to the gym in the next week or so, and hoping muscle memory means that I can put that 5kg and regain that strength fairly quickly
