^ that's a LOT of progress to sustain (not that it'd hurt to try to sustain, just that it's very hard to continually gain that much strength)
 
thanks for the tips :)

would you focus one set of muscles at a time for a few weeks and then cycle to a different group/exercise, or would other days be using different muscle groups?
 
I haven't exercise since Sunday.
Every morning, I have intentions to go to the gym after work as I usually do but since we moved my motivation is at an all time low.
I would rather go home sit outside, drink a beer, smoke a j, and eat. My sleep cycle is off this week.
Wah wah wah...I swear I am going to work out today.
I feel better when I do but at the same time I am happy when I am not.
 
^for someone as active as yourself, the time off is probably more help than harm. whenever i feel like all my body wants to do is rest and eat, i find it's best to trust it.

knocked out 5 mi this morning before the heat gets too crazy.

I would do a full body template like starting strength, I dont like split routines. Focusing on only one muscle group at a time would just mean making alot less progress then you could.
 
ha, i'm looking forward to some tubby current PI pics =D

3 x 5 really enough? i generally push for 3x10- 5x10.
 
I've done fuck all but walk the dogs lately. However, I just purchased a 6' short board today and am planning on ripping tomorrow. Up with the ocean and down with drilling!

15 x 5 squats
5 x 5 elevated pushup
5 x 5 dips
25 x 4 crunches
5 x 5 mixed grip pull-up

good day workout wise. tired but not dead.
 
Haven't been doing much lately, hit a major depression which I am just pulling myself out off.

Anyways I've lifted a few times, mainly I have been taking long walks. More so to clear my head after work and to waste an hour or two.
 
Worked, digging holes with hand tools - shovel, crowbar, pick. Breaking concrete with a jack hammer. Lot of walking , carrying heavy stuff. That's my workout.
