    Started a log here probably about two years ago and I never really got into it. Going to try track my progress here and get some feedback from others. Fairly eager and willing to learn new things about nutrition and lifting. Not really too worried about bf% as long as I'm still aerobically fit and adding strength and muscle, that's for the time being anyway, this may change in the future. I'll probably start lowering my bf if I decided to go away at all during summer. Currently in college and playing gaelic football.

    Stats
    Age: 20
    Height: 5 10"
    Weight: 77kg~
    BF%: Rough estimate is 16%? Pictures below anyway
    Goals: Increase mobility, strength in posterior chain and glute activation mainly. Have some other more minor goals but that's it really.

    Current 1R.M's
    Deadlift: 155kg
    Bench: 105kg
    Pullups to failure: 18
    Pushups (1min): 70
    Spider Test: 605 yards
    Inverted Rows (1min): 32

    Note: Squat isn't in there as I don't get tested in it with my GAA team. I do incorporate different types of squats into my workouts though.

    Some Pics
    Relaxed side
    Legs from front
    Legs from side
    Relaxed front

    Diet
    In terms of diet, I keep it relatively clean but don't really care TOO much about bf so do pig out and don't count calories. As long as it doesn't affect my aerobic fitness I'm laughing.

    Training
    Ball work twice a week, match weekends, try to get 2-3 gym sessions in a week too.

    Notes
    I work in a supp shop part time and get cost price supplements. As a result I'm always trying one thing or another so I can properly advice people on taste/mixibility/sides/effectiveness etc, I realise I can get these nutrients from food, not looking for a lecture on this I still have a clean diet. I'll probably throw in what supplements I'm using pre/during/post workout just in case anyone's interested in knowing. I also take a multi and 6-8 fish oils daily.

    Note to self: Get more f**cking sleep

    Currently rehabing a grade one hamstring hamstring injury. I was a ham and did strength work on hamstring and glutes the day before sprint and stride work. Won't make that mistake again. That happened about a week and a half ago. Saw my physio last Tuesday and will be visiting him again to assess strength and quality of muscle tissue.

    Got to the gym for about 9pm.

    Warmup
    Bike for 5 mins.
    Foam rolled glutes, calves, IT bands, hamstrings, scapula, rhomboids and that general area. Also paid particular attention to lats. All with a hockey ball.
    Followed by dynamic med ball foam rolling to warm up a bit.
    Roll overs into V-sits x10
    Donkey kicks x10 each leg
    Rear leg elevated hip flexor stretch x10 each leg

    Workout
    Single leg deadlifts with KB
    6kg x4 each leg
    10kg x6 each leg
    14kg 4x10 each leg

    Barbell Hip Thrusts -paying particular attention to squeezing the glutes at the top of the movement.
    50kg 4x10

    Front Squats
    40kg 4x12

    Hip flexor strength work
    BW 3x8 (Note: left leg side definitely weaker than right)

    Took amin.o. energy while doing the warmup to perk myself up a bit, was feeling wrecked. 2 scoops of xtend during. 1 scoop of ROS nutrition blue label whey mixed with maltodextrin post workout.

    25/02/13

    Warmup
    Bike 5mins
    Foam rolled glutes and into hip with hockey ball
    Foam rolled across upper back with med ball

    Band pull aparts x10

    Did about 2mins extra foam rolling into glutes but was too tender to do much

    Notes
    Wrists were sore with plyo push ups and military press. Intra and post workout supplementation was the same as yesterday. Xtend, whey + malto
