My Log

The_Bullman

My background. I'm a lazy fat man(over 100kgs). Prone to periods of frequent workouts followed by long absences from the gym.

I've tried starting strength and my version of westside previously. With good improvements on both but not enough dedication.

At the moment I'm recovering from a sprained mcl sustained playing indoor football. Hopefully I'll be restarting this in september.

To try and get up to some sort of fitness I've been messing around with crossfit for a week now. Using crossfit.com's wod. Scaling when necessary(too often)

Thanks for reading

The_Bullman

First workout since Tuesday. Fecking work getting in the way. 3 12 hour working days in a row. Back to it today.

Since I think crossfit take Sunday's off I decided to do yesterday's workout today and hopefully I'll get a chance to do today's workout tomorrow. If that makes sense.

Today's workout

Overhead Squat 3-3-3-3-3 reps

Never did this before so had some difficulty adjusting to it. Also used a 10" box to be sure of depth.

20x3 - 20x3 - 20x3
40x3 - 50x2 Failed on 3rd rep - 50x0 Failed on 1st rep - 45x3 - 47.5x3 - 50x3 Rested on box on 2nd and 3rd reps

A humbling workout. Can't believe the weights are so low.

The_Bullman

Didn't get to workout yesterday.

Sort of made up for it today. I'd an hour of 5 a side. First time playing in since I sprained my MCL in June of July. Had some physio on it and was supposed to be able to go back to playing a week ago but it still doesn't feel right. Running and sprinting is fine but its the turning and any shooting or passing that causes the pain. Think I'll have to go back to the physio. Not sure just yet.

The_Bullman

Tonight's workout.

For time:
Row 1000 meters
95 pound barbell Thruster, 21 reps
21 Pull-ups
Row 750 meters
95 pound barbell Thruster, 15 reps
15 Pull-ups
Row 500 meters
95 pound barbell Thruster, 9 reps
9 Pull-ups
If you do not have a rower, replace row efforts with a 1 mile run, 800 meter run and a 400 meter run.

Time: 43:24

Unfortunately I don't have a rowing machine. So I had to run. How I hate running. Another excuse is that my groin is a little tender from last night's return to football. Can't think of any more excuses, apart from my lack of fitness

The_Bullman

Tonights workout.

"Elizabeth"

21-15-9 reps of:
Clean 135 pounds
Ring dips

Used 60kg for cleans and subbed dips for ring dips. Not a fair substitution but I don't have rings, and I'm short on time tonight.

Time: 28.47

Think my fitness is improving. Still have to take many breaks inside the sets. Bring on tomorrow

It would be good if I got a 90kg push press. I failed at it. Hopefully you won't be disappointed with my 87.5kg

The_Bullman

Last night's workout.

Deadlift
3-3-3-3-3

20x10 - 20x10 - 60x5 - 100x5
130x3 - 150x3 - 160x3 - 170F - 165x3 - 167.5F

Yesterday was a rest day on crossfit.com so I tried Thursdays workout from crossfit.ie. I felt the need to lift somethin heavy and that fit the bill. I'm happy enough with my lifting. 170 was my previous 1RM so I'm happy to get close to it but raging I couldn't pull it. Next time. Next time

The_Bullman

Just back from

6 rounds for time of:
Run 400 meters
25 Burpees

I subbed this to 15 burpees.

Still took me 39.51

I much preferred Friday's deadlifts. I hope for more 1 or 3 rep max days

The_Bullman

Been out of the gym for a while with working late, and being away in france workin for 2 weeks, and more work.

This week I tried to get back into the swing of it. On Tuesday I tried a 1 rep max on the squat and military press. Poor efforts of 130 at the squat and 65 on the press.

On Friday I tried out Linda. What a bad idea. Too long away from the bar. Everything felt heavy. Only managed 2 rounds in 45 minutes so I gave up at this stage.

And today I tried Amy did 3 rounds in about 16 minutes. Was tight for time and I lost a fair bit of that remembering how to push jerk.

At least I'm back at it. Long may it continue. Less of the doms would be nice though

The_Bullman

This week been mad with work again.

Played indoor footie for an hour monday.

Tonight I tried nasty girls from crossfit.ie

3 rounds for time of
50 air squats
10 60kg hang power cleans
7 muscle ups - subbed these for 4 rounds of 4 bar dips and 3 jumping pull ups with slow negatives.

All for a time of 40:55

The_Bullman

Been reading up more on crossfit and figured I should consider scaling a bit more. So today I did.

The Workout of the Day(for yesterday) on crossfit.ie was
30 Box Jumps
30 Pull-Ups
30 Deadlifts (Bodyweight)
30 Ring Dips
30 Knees-to-Elbows
30 Double Unders

I did
20 jump pull-ups with slow negative(don't know how I ended up doing these first probably dreading them the most)
20 20" box jumps
20 100kg deadlifts
20 bar dips
20 knees to elbows.
200 singles

The pull-ups and dips were tougher than they should have been with me still fried from Friday. Knees to elbows weren't full rep. Never did them before so just tried to get my knees up as high as possible. Skipping is tough enough for me so just did singles. Tried messing about with double unders before the workout but wasn't getting anywhere.

All that messin about for a time of 27:26

The_Bullman

This week I'd the usual hours footie on Monday, followed by another hour of indoor footie.

Friday I followed crossfit.ie's workout of the day.

5 minute skipping warmup.

Strength work
OH squat 20x5, 30x5, 40x2(failed on 3rd rep twice), 40x2, 40x3

Spicey Meatball:
3 Rounds of:
1 min 20Kg Thrusters, max reps
1 min Burpees, max reps
1 min 20Kg Hang Squat Clean, max reps
1 min rest

Round 1: 22 thrusters, 5 burpees, 10 hang squat cleans
Round 2: 18, 6, 10
Round 3: 20, 6, 9

Not a great overall workout. I tried the overhead squat for my strength work cause I suck at it. Can't get the technique down at all.


Today I played a full 90 minutes of outdoor, full size pitch football. Played center back, clean sheet, no problems

The_Bullman

Today I went back to it. Been working about 60 hours a week this last month so been too tired and not enough hours in the day to do a workout. Played indoor footie the last two monday's which was tough with missing a couple of weeks.

Todays workout was mainly trying to get back into the swing of things.

I started off with about 5 minutes skipping, followed by 15 minutes of messing about with my new sled. Just tied up a rope as a harness. Think I'll borrow my safety harness from work next time. Next I learned how to jerk. I had done push jerks before but not the split type. Think I got it.

And finally I did 3 rounds in 12.30 or so of:
5 x 50kg split jerks and,
10 burpees.

Bloody awful. Jerks were grand, but like before(only worse) my cardio sucks. Still good to be doing something. Better than randomly squatting and lifting steel and beams in work

The_Bullman

Tonight I tried out tabata front squats. Just used the empty bar cause I'd no clue what to be expecting. Think 9 was my worst. 10 my best. Speedy squats aren't my forte My legs are quite wracked though But 2 workouts in a row. I'm on a roll.

The_Bullman

Since last time I played indoor footie Monday and Tuesday night.

Friday - Back to crossfit.ie. I tried my 1rm of back squat. Went something like this:
5 minute warmup - skipping
20kg x10, 20kg x10, 60kg x5, 90kg x 5, 110kg x3, 120kg x3, 130kg x1, 140kg Fail. So bloody close. Started out of the hole fine but had to dump it about a third of the way up. Seeing stars after that attempt. And finished with a 135kg x1 rep.

Next on the list was 5 minutes of handstands. I messed about for a couple of minutes but didn't get very far.


Today's workout from crossfit.ie is:
7 Rounds for time:
7 Overhead Squats, 45Kg
7 Pull Ups
7 Wall Ball Shots

I scaled the oh squats to a mere 30kg. All for a time of 25:16 or so.

In other news I've a medicine ball Somehow a basketball found its way into work so I cut it up. Filled it with sand. Duct taped it up. And it was ready for the wall ball shots. Which are harder than I thought they'd be. I had subbed 20kg thrusters previously so I was expecting something similar. But its more tricky dealing with the rebound and accuracy of the shooting.

And another piece of equipment is on the way also. I've made a pair of farmers walk bars. Each weighing 20kg. With room to add on olympic plates. Went for a 100m walk with them in work and they worked the forearms nicely

The_Bullman

Last night I'd the usual Monday night's indoor football. Played awful.

Tonight I went back to the crossfit.ie wod

Workout of the Day:
Strength/Skill work

then
Tabata Mash Up:
Push Jerks, 60Kg
Box Jumps

I started off with a 20kg farmers walk for 400m or so. Not sure of the distance. Arms were beginning to fry by the end. Then I stuck 30kg on each arm for a 20 yard walk. I need clips for both ends of my bars. Not nice for the plates to crash to the floor as I walk.

Next was 5 minutes of skipping.

For strength/skill work I guessed I should do some squat cleans. So I did.
20kg x 10, 30kg x 5, 50kg x 5, 60 x 3, 70 x 1, 80 x 1, and a fail on 90. I really need to work on these. Probably flexibility cause my arms won't allow the bar to touch my shoulders.

Finally for the tabata workout. I did:
Round 1: Push Jerks - 4, Box squats - 8
Round 2: 5, 8
R3, 4, 8
R4, 4, 9

Not sure (because I was concentrating on not falling on the floor), but my push jerks may have turned into push presses. Or some combo of the two.

Still, enjoyed my workout.

Till next time

The_Bullman

Started off with the usual 5 minutes skipping to warm up. I'm beginning to get used to it. Don't need to take as many breaks and I'm trying to introduce some tucks for some day being able to do double unders...

After that back to crossfit.ie

Workout of the Day:
Strength/Skill Work

then
21-15-9
Front Squats, 70Kg
Chest Slapping Push Ups

Today I tried the push press with the following. 20 x 10, 40 x 5, 60 x 5, 80 x 1, 90F, 85 x 1( don't think it counts as I'd to take a step back to regain balance), 85F, 80 x 1, 60 x 4

And in between these reps I just did single pull ups. I'm trying to do a few reps every session to try and get someway decent at them. Of course if I lost some weight then I'd do them no problem but that would be too easy

As for the WOD. I scaled to 60kg front squats as the 70's felt too heavy when I tried the first few reps. And I also scaled to simple pushups cause me doing clapping pushups could end in disaster.

All that scaling gave me a time of 16:17 or so. Not as bad as I thought it was. And plenty of room for improvement

The_Bullman

The usual 5 minutes skipping to warm up. But I think I did a double under when messing about at the start. Tried at the end to do another but couldn't. Must have been a fluke.

Back to crossfit.ie

Workout of the Day:
Strength/Skill Work

then
10,9,8…3,2,1
Push Press, 45Kg
Pull Ups

Today I tried my deadlift. A lift I've been happy enough with since I used to do starting strength and some westside. Although westside neglects the deadlift I think I threw it in a few times. Anyway, I digress.

20 x 12, 40, x 10, 60 x 5, 90 x 5, 110, x 3, 130 x 3, 150 x 1, 170 x 1, 180 x 1.

And 180 was a new personal best. Which followed the 170 that I cheered myself after cause its the first time I really ground out a rep on the deadlift. I tried to add on more weight but I'd ran out of my even weights and only had a pair of 45lbs left. At this point I recalculated what I'd on the bar and realised that all the weights from 110kg above were 10kg heavier than I thought. So the 170 I ground out was really a new pb of 180 and the 180 is a new pb of 190... I think. I tried 200kg but couldn't even budge it

Here's the vid if someone could check my form please. I get the feeling you'll say I was hitching near the end.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YTT0eOIvSls

After all that I tried out the wod for a time of 17:06. Not too bad. Push presses were easy. Pull ups weren't. I was able to kip most of the way through but I'd to do a few jumping pullups along the way too.

cardio,shoot me

form looked pretty good for a max effort lift to me, there could have been some hitching, but it doesnt look like you needed to, just would have had to grind it out a bit.

Looking strong!

The_Bullman

Thanks for that Cardio.

Wasn't feeling too strong today though.

But first. Had a mini workout saturday. Not great. Was supposed to do Nancy but it was raining outside. I started off but ended up doing about 800m of a run instead of 400. Then I tried to oh squat and I just couldn't. Couldn't manage the weight at all. Body was shattered. So I just left. Not a good feeling.

Monday and Tuesday(Last night) I played some indoor football. 4 a side last night so loads of running. And I tweaked my groin monday which added to the enjoyment of last night's game and trying to walk about in work today

Tonight I did:
Workout of the Day:
Strength/Skill Work

then
As Many Rounds As Possible in 20 Minutes of:
10 Power Cleans
10 Thrusters
25 Air Squats

For the strength/skill work I did bench pressing.
Something like this
20 x 10, 30 x 10, 50 x 5, 70 x 5, 80 x 3, 90 x 1, 100 x 1, 105F, 102.5F, 90 x 2

And I managed 3 rounds and 5 Thrusters of the wod.

Not good on both workouts. Didn't have the gas for the wod. And I was disappointed on the benching. Was hoping to get 105. Been stuck on 100 for too long now.

The_Bullman

Decided to change away from crossfit and have joined the many doing 5/3/1

Saturday 2nd Squat
Worked up to 105 x 9

Monday 4th - Military Press
Worked up to 50 x 11

Wednesday 6th - Deadlift
Worked up to 142.5 x 7

Saturday 9th - Bench
Worked up to 82.5 x 7

Did 2 assistance exercises each day except for deadlift. Wasn't feeling good that day. Was very disappointed with only 7 reps for both deadlift and bench.

I also picked myself up a big tire. No clue what weight it is. Its a Pirelli Cintura RM94 20.5R20. About 4' 6" in diameter and 18" wide. Hoping for the weather to clear so I can give it a go.

The_Bullman

Last night I'd my first game of indoor football of the year. Not as tiring as I thought it would be.

5/3/1 Week 2
Squats

45kg x 5, 55kg x 5, 67 x 3, 87.5 x 3, 97.5 x 3 and 110kg x 10

As I'm just starting 531 its a new personal record. Not sure how to keep track of new pr's.

I followed the squats with loading 1 ton of 40kg bags of meal into a lorry. Which was nice.

When on to walking lunges 20m x 3

And db side bends 30kg x 20, 35 x 20 and 35 x 15

The_Bullman

14-1
5/3/1 Week 2
Military Press: 20kg x 5, 25 x 5, 30 x 3, 42.5 x 3, 47.5 x 3, 55 x 8
Shrugs with my farmers walk bars: 20kg(each arm) x 15, 50 x 5, 50 x 8, 50 x 8, 20 x 16
BW Dips: 5, 5, 5, 5, 3
Lat pulldown: stack(64.5) x 15, x 12, x 9, x9

And 2 tyre flips to finish

16-1
Deadlift: 60 x 5, 75 x 5, 90 x 3, 117.5 x 3, 135 x 3, 150 x 7
Good Mornings: 20 x 10, 40 x 10, 50 x 10, 60 x 10, 60 x 10
Situps: 20, 20, 20


And today I did
11 tyre flips.
3 x 100m farmers walks with 40kg in each hand.

Not in that order. Did a few flips, then a walk, a few more flips, another walk.

The_Bullman

Had the game of footie on Monday as usual.

Last night I did a little benching.
35 x 5, 45 x 5, 52.5 x 3, 67.5 x 3, 77.5 x 3, 87.5 x 6
Followed by:
Assistance Work #3: I’m Not Doing Jack Shit

Because I'd another hour's indoor football a couple of hours after. I hit my weights and got out of there in super quick time. Felt good actually.

And tonight I did about 20 minutes of skipping. Or more like 10 minutes of skipping over 20 minutes. Mostly trying out different techniques. Managed 3 double unders in a row once :-)

followed by a crossfit.ie workout from Mon, Jan 18th

As Many Rounds in 20 Minutes of:
5 Push Presses, 40Kg
10 Sit Ups
15 Walking Lunges

Did 10 rounds in 20.45 or so. Which I was happy with. Was still out of breath but not as much as I used to be with crossfit. Maybe its cause I was doing the walking lunges as an assistance exercise. I'm starting to think that crossfit is only an assistance type of workout. Or maybe some sort of conditioning. I definetely feel stronger after a couple of weeks of 5/3/1 than I did with the crossfit.

The_Bullman

A while since I filled this in unfortunately.

On Thursday the 21st Squat 1st 5/3/1 day
Squat: 47.5 x 5, 60 x 5, 70 x 3, 92.5 x 5, 105 x 3, 117.5 x 6

Ab pulldown: 100lb x 15, 110 x 15, 120 x 15, 130 x 15, 140 x 15

Indoor football on Saturday morning. Played 5 a side only my team had only 4 which left me fluffed out for the day and sunday too. Couldn't workout monday so had to make up time on Tuesday 26th.

So I did 5/3/1 on deadlift and military press.
Deadlift: 65 x 5, 80 x 5, 95 x 3, 125 x 5, 142.5 x 3, 160 x 6
Military press: 27.5 x 5, 30 x 5, 35 x 3, 45 x 5, 50 x 3, 57.5 x 8

Incline close grip bench: 20 x 10, 40 x 10, 50 x 8, 45 x 10, 47.5 x 9, 45 x 8
db rows(using my farmers walk bar 20kg) 5 sets of 10 with the bar.

Played football on Saturday and Monday.
Today was the beginning of my deload. Which took almost a week to start.

Squat:30, 37.5, 45, 50, 62.5, 75 all 5 reps
Front squat: 20 x 5, 40 x 5, 40 x 10, 40 x 10, 40 x 6 - felt twinge in right knee cap so stopped.
Ab pulldown: 15 reps of 50, 54.5, 57, 64.5, 64.5
Ez bicep curls: ez curl bar + 10 x 12, + 20 x 10, +22.5 x 8

And I got about 5 consecutive double unders in my skipping warmup.

The_Bullman

Thursday the 4th
Military press deload: 20, 20, 22.5, 25, 30, and 37.5 all by 5 reps
Supline row 5 sets of 5
11 reps of slow negative pull ups with varying width of grips

Saturday 6th
Deadlift deload, 40, 50, 60, 70, 85, 100kg all by 5 reps

Yesterday
Bench deload: 25, 30, 35, 40, 47.5, 57.5 all by 5 reps
Face pulls 13.5, 19, 22.5, 27, 31.5 all by 15 reps

Was fed up with the deload. Probably didn't need it considering the gap in my training. Will keep that in mind for the next time.

Played an hours football.

Today was the start of a new cycle. Round 2.
Squat: 45 x 5, 57.5 x 5, 67.5 x 5, 85 x 5, 97.5 x 5, 112.5 x 8
Front squat: 5 sets of 5 x 10
Ab pulldown: 54.5 x 15, 59 x 15, and 3 sets of 64.5 x 15

Tough workout. Was disappointed with only 8 reps in the squat. I got 10 reps of 110kg on the 12th of Jan and 6 reps of 117.5 on the 21st.
Front squats were tough. Had to get bloody minded through them. Not a bad way to be. And ab pulldowns were also tough, but enjoyable.

Built myself another new toy. Hope to get some good use out of it.

cardio,shoot me

that is freaking cool, how much did it cost you to make, looks really well done!

The_Bullman

Didn't cost me anything to make. Used some offcut steel in work that I took. A pint of paint out of the store. And maybe 8 hours on and off to make it up.

Hardest part was finding pictures of prowlers. Don't think I got it identical to the elitefts one. Hopefully I made it close enough.

The_Bullman

This morning I did 17 hill sprints.

And this evening I did
C2W1 Military Press
22.5 x 5, 30 x 5, 35 x 5, 42.5 x 5, 50 x 5, 57.5 x 6

Was very dissapointed tonight. I didn't set a personal best. It was 2 reps less than I did on Jan 28th. It could be tiredness from this morning and general tiredness. Not happy at all. At least I hit my reps.

The_Bullman

Just back from another quick workout.

Deadlift: 5 x 57.5, 5 x 72.5, 5 x 85, 5 x 107.5, 5 x 125, 10 x 142.5

Realised after the workout that I set the weight too low for this cycle. Beat my reps from last time so think I'll leave it be.

The_Bullman

5/3/1 C2W1 Bench
Skipping warmup
Bench: 35 x 5, 42.5 x 5, 52.5 x 5, 65 x 5, 75 x 5, 85 x 8
Supline Rows: 10 sets of 5 with mixed grip
12 negative pull ups with mixed grip

Thoughts - Hate the 5 week. Didn't feel right for any of the workouts. Don't think I'm resting enough at all. Bring on 3 reps

The_Bullman

Broke out my prowler tonight.

Prowler +40kg 4 x 20m sprints each way.

Its torture

The_Bullman

5/3/1 C2W2
Power cleans: 20 x 5, 40 x 5, 50 x 5, 60 x 5, 65 x 5, 70 x 5, 75 x 4
Squats: 47.5 x 5, 60 x 5, 72.5 x 3, 92.5 x 3, 105 x 3, 117.5 x 7
Front Squats: 5 sets of 55 x 10
Ab pulldown: 5 sets of 64.5 x 15

The_Bullman

Tried my prowler again. With worse results than before.

Did 3 runs with 40kg and 1 run with just the sled.

Legs were fried after squatting last night. At least I hope that's why I sucked.

And I happened to pass a weighing scale today so I hopped on. I weigh 110kg. Most of it in my belly of course

There aren't any blueprints unfortunately. And I looking at it finished I don't think I got the measurements just right.

I think the triangular part is 900mm wide and 1m deep and about 250 or so wide at the front.
The poles are about 900 high
The horizontal bars are about 600 wide, with the bottom one 250 off the ground and the other 500
The skis are about 300 x 200.

You could ask Roper for more detailed measurements cause I think he's got a couple of prowlers in IP

Yesterday 5/3/1 C2W2
Bench
Warm up: 37.5 x 5, 45 x 5, 55 x 3
Work sets: 70 x 3, 80 x 3, 90 x 6

Close-ish grip bench: 5 sets of 40 x 15 reps
db rows: 4 sets of 20kg x 10, final set of 25 x 10

Thoughts: was disappointed with my bench. Just equaled a pb from last month. CGB were tiring towards the end.

Tonight 5/3/1 C2W3
Squats
Warm up: 50 x 5, 67.5 x 5, 75 x 3
Works sets: 97.5 x 5, 112.5 x 3, 125 x 6

Front squats: 55 x 8

Ab pulldown: 5 sets of stack x 15

Thoughts: Had to rush through the workout tonight. So when I felt my lower back tighten during the front squats I decided to leave them out. Probably was sore because of the wobble during the final set of squats. Also didn't have time to try and power clean again

I could sell it to you.

In theory i would love one, but i would have no place to use it:(. It would be a perfect trainning tool for any GAA or rugby team, You could def make a few and see if any clubs wanted to buy them. But then some twat would prob injure himself and blame you or some crap:rolleyes:

Bloody busy week.

Played indoor football as usual on Monday. Didn't have time to do anything on Tuesday night. Was shattered yesterday. Even tonight I didn't have time. But I managed to squeeze in

Military Press 5/3/1 C2W3
Warm Up: 25.0 x 5, 32.5 x 5, 37.5 x 3
Work Sets: 50.0 x 5, 57.5 x 3, 62.5 x 6

No time for anything else. But still happy with what I did. I'm nearly sure I'm in PR territory. I can't remember lifting anything over 60. Still, won't be happy until I get another 10kgs

The_Bullman

Tonight I'd a little more time to spare but I was still cut short.

5/3/1 C2W3

Power Snatch: 20 x 3, 30 x 3, 40 x 3, 50 x 3, 60 x 3, 60 x 3
Deadlift -
Warm up: 65 x 5, 80 x 5, 95 x 3
Work sets: 125 x 5, 142.5 x 3, 157.5 x 10

Good Mornings: 5 sets of 50 x 12

Thoughts: My last 2 sets of power snatches weren't good. I ended up pressing them out a bit. Still a little better than last week when I couldn't get the 60kg moving up at all.

Deadlifts were fine. Happy to get 10 reps but still confused by the weight. Not sure how I entered the figures in the calculator. I lifted 160 last time. At least I got good reps(I think) There will be an increase next cycle.
