Last week wasn’t really great. My workouts weren’t too bad early in the week and managed to push myself quite hard at the gym. Saturday’s session was pretty naff though as I went to the gym in the morning and I hadn’t eaten enough to give me the energy that I needed. It really made a difference and I just felt weak so only managed two sets of each exercise.
Since coming back from my holiday I have really struggled to sort out my diet again. For some reason this always seems to happen when I go away and I just find it hard to get back into the routine. I’ve put on a bit of flab around my belly because I haven’t been eating right so I’ve got to get back on track!
I have come up with this routine to try for a month, coupled with good eating and as little drinking as poss. It’s a strength routine so I’m hoping to push my personal best lifts up in weight. It’s pretty simple so here goes.
3 Days per week, alternating each session. All exercises will be done at 5 x 5 (5 sets of 5 reps).
Workout 1
Squats
Dumbell Bench Press
Seated Rows
Chin Ups
Workout 2
Deadlifts
Dips
Bent Over Rows
Lat Pulldowns
I’m just doing the lat pull downs as I’m crap at pull ups. So I’m going to do this for four weeks then change to pull ups. I just wanted to concentrate on the big lifts really and see what results I get. I’ll review it after the month and decided if I want to carry on with it or go back to my normal full body workout.
