more than a hobby, it's become a bit of an obsession of mine. To the point where I specifically plan things out to not interfere with my training schedule. Fortunately I have now disciplined myself to not step inside the gym more than 3 times a week (was doing 4 and it was interfering with everything else, and I would gladly do more if I didn't have to waste time commuting), but for those 3 workouts I am ultra focused and don't step out of the gym til I acheived the set goal for that day.
On the off days I just use one of those ab-wheel thingies to train abs in the morning pretty religiously. I have a 4-pack and I'd like to keep it.
And if any fucks are given this is what my workouts look like:
15 minutes mobility, stretching, foam rolling
squarsh (4 warmups) then 3x5
Push press 3 warmups then 3x5
At least 10 pullups between every set of the above (totaling 50-60)
Barbell row 1 warmup then 4x5 *
Romanian deadlift with defecit 3x5 *
Some tricep movement (dips or lying extensions)
*the following day these two are replaced with standard deadlifts and 1 arm dumbell rows.
and the third day is :
Strict overhead press 5x5
Same thing with the pullups
Pause squats 7x3 with 30-40lb less than regular. I feel like I'll have a brain aneurism any moment with these.
Pause deadlifts at the knee 3x5 with 60-70lb less than regular.
Another tricep movement or something for fun.
Boring as fuck but I'm progressing steadily and am pretty much putting on 5lb every week on most lifts and feel pretty healthy. Barring catastrophic injuries, I believe a realistic goal for me in the coming year and a half is a double bodyweight squarsh (410lb) and a bodyweight overhead push-press (205lb).
