Bench-

barx12
60x8
80x3
100x3
110x3 repeated my 3RM PR that I did a couple of days ago because I wanted to get a recording of it. It felt a bit tougher than 2 days ago, but that's because I only gave myself 2 days before benching again. Hopefully this weight will start to feel light soon.

Bench Vid-

Bodyweight- 87.1

Cardio-
Going running after drinking coffee and eating a triple cheese burger was a bad idea!

4x200m with 5 minutes rest each set.
Each set was sub 31 seconds.
I didn't feel anything in my legs it was just my lungs and McDonald's after taste which was the problem. Felt dead after the 4th set. I'd like to build up to 6x200m before I start increasing the pace.

Also the grass track that I run on is currently in terrible condition because it's the middle of winter so nobody maintains it and the grass is all patchy and overgrown. #firstworldproblems
If I had a truck I would take my lawn mower and mow 1 of the lanes.

Cardio-
1100 skips

5x100m ME with 5 minute recovery

1x100m- 11.9
1X100M- 11.8
1X100M- 11.7
1X100M- untimed
1x100m- untimed

The tailwind was very strong, which is why the times were decent.
I didn't time the last 2 100s because I didn't want to hold the stopwatch.

I've run 11.37 FAT but considering I'm currently sitting at around 22% bodyfat I was pleased with the times. I was tempted to run some hill sprints because my body was feeling good, but i didn't want to push it too much and jinx myself.

On an unrelated note I have 2 cars, which are being an absolute headfuck for me atm. Thousands of $$$ down the drain just fixing these bitches, which I need for me and my girlfriend to get to work everyday since we both live long distances away from our workplaces. I ended up going through with that real estate purchase, which I was worrying about earlier in my journal so atm money is really tight. Lucky running is free and something that I enjoy.

I'll be honest I'm a bit skeptical that your 22% bf... But that said I don't see why you can't get into the 170s with your current strength levels and run really fast... I think your probably have similar ceiling to me and if u get in shape could be just as fast and probably run higher

I'm skinny fat right now. I'm 88kg (195lbs) and have a 38 inch waist, which is terrible. When I started this journal 8 months ago I was weighing 96kg (211lbs) with a 43 inch waist, which put me at 30% bodyfat.
http://clymer.altervista.org/bmi/

My ceiling would be a lot less than yours. Running mid 10's FAT is way beyond my expectations. I'd be happy to get to high 10s FAT and the only reason I think I can get to that is because NCAA females and professional female track athletes can run sub 11's and sub 22's. Realistically it would be an achievement if I could go sub 11.5 FAT and sub 23 FAT in the 100 and 200 respectively within the next 12 months.

Whoa.  First of I checked out the BF calculator and I think it is off for track athletes especially - I mean if you put in Usain Bolts competition stats it gives him double digit BF and I would bet a lot that he is single digits when he is breaking world records...

I think it's probably somewhat to do with waist measurement not being a perfect indicator for track athletes who have developed abs and obliques relative to most people.

What's your waist measurement when your in shape?  Your flucation is a bit crazy.  I have bounced around and gotten BF tested through mri and hydrostatic and as far as the eye test I have looked soft and chubby and lean and ripped and my stats are:

5'11 188 32 inch waist @ 5% BF
5'11 230 36 inch waist @ 16% BF

That's still only a 4 inch change to waist despite massive overeating... Maybe your stress hormones and alcohol are causing your waist changes (also evidence of the calculator being off).

As far as your ceiling I wouldn't bet against a mid ten run for your 100m as being impossible... Basically I think you can sort of describe training as (a) totally out of shape, (b) somewhat in shape but not a track athlete - eg I play ball a few times a week and can do ugly dunks but I'm not training for track, (c) training for track but also have a life and (d) pro or college level peaking where you eat sleep and drink track (no alcohol, etc) and the biggest non trainin stress on your CNS comes from the movies you watch between training sessions...

No point in discussing (a).  But for me when I'm in (b) I am naturally about mid 11.  I have to be in (c) to run 11.0 or dip under and really only (d) gets me into mid tens...

I don't think you really know (d) so even though it might not fit with your lifestyle and you won't do it (hard w a life and job really) I think that phase would get you to the numbers I think you have... I think this because your 200m times are never that bad when your out of shape which shows your top speed is naturally decent and that is probably the most non trainable quality I know for track...

Still your right to make realistic goals to start w and get your bw and BF under control.  Congrats on the progress you have already made hopefully your out of the hormonal hell of being truly fat and the gains will start accelerating now!

I injured my right lat.

It was feeling sore after benching last week and it was feeling sore for a few days. On Monday I couldn't do pull ups because I was getting pain in it so I did chin ups instead, which had less effect on it. On Tuesday I did bench again and did chin ups and it was feeling fine. I had a rest day yesterday but the right side of my chest was feeling sore today, but the weather has been cold and wet everyday so I haven't been able to do any running so I wanted to go to the gym since I couldn't go outside and do any exercise. Started doing deadlifts today and my right lat was just really painfull. I think I've strained it so I'm just going to have a week off the gym. I hate winter.

sucks about your lat. unsolicited suggestion for your week off: do some bw lower body stuff at home just to keep limber and minimally active. pistols, shrimp squats, bridges/hip thrusts, BSS, kickbacks, etc.
Muscles are nonsensical they have nothing to do with this bullshit.

Do you think I should still do squats?
Lower body wise I'm fine.

The pain feels a bit better today. Last night I could barely lift my right arm and it hurt to steer the driving wheel. Today driving felt fine and I've got slightly more ROM when raising my right arm.

Not much to update. Haven't been to the gym or done any exercise since Thursday (it's Monday morning now). My right lat is feeling better but not completely healed yet, but the ROM is coming back.

I worked at the election on Saturday from 7am-midnight. I was sitting down from 8am-1pm and didn't move out of the chair the whole time. My hips and groins were feeling sore just from sitting down that long and all tight. My hamstrings also felt 'squashed'. My job was to tick people's names off the electoral roll, which is a massive phone book style book. I also had to hand out all the voting forms so I was constantly leaning into the table all day. From 1:30 to 6pm I was standing up, which was a lot better but I still felt stiff.

The weather has been terrible. It's been raining everyday for the past week and because it's winter the sun is hardly ever out. 7am it's still dark and by 6pm it's dark again. I just need to get motivation to wake up earlier and go running before work!

Bodyweight- 87.4

I've been resting for 5 days. The weather has been terrible. We just had the wettest July day in my city since 1941. My lats not fully recovered yet, but I would be fine to do squats and running. I'll rest 2 more days and then just get back into training again. I agreed to go to a family friends yoga class this Thursday night so that should be interesting since I've never done it before. Can't say I'm looking forward to it though, but I could really benefit from some extra flexibility, particularly in my legs/hamstrings so I'm giving it a shot.

Nothing to update except that I'm now sick with a fairly bad cold. I fkn hate winter. My body doesn't tolerate the cold temperatures very well.

that sucks.. you were doing so great. I hope you get back on the "gainstrain" as soon as possible. I'm in a very similar situation. Training has been going really well... boom hurt my wrist skateboarding and now it feels like I have to revaluate this whole situation and adjust my training accordingly which is just annoying as hell. I hate injuries!!  :raging:

That sucks about your wrist. My lat feels better now, but unfortunately I'm still sick so I haven't been able to train. I've just been focusing on my calorie intake and trying to lose weight/body fat.

I can't wait to get lean again. It's easier to stay lean once you're already lean so that's what I'm trying to do atm since diet is 75% of the equation of having low body fat.

Bodyweight- 86.5

Jump Rope-
1000 skips

Squats-
60x8
82.5x7x2
I had to stop after the 2nd set of 82.5 because I was experiencing sharp pain in my right hamstring/right glute. I'm not sure if it was DOMS or a small tear. I can't catch a break atm.

The usual suspects all have DOMS from yesterday. All day I've been sitting in my office looking out the window and it's been sunny. I've been slack with running in the past few weeks so I was looking really forward to doing a few 100m tempos tonight for cardio. 4pm and with 1 hour to go it starts pouring with rain and hasn't stopped since >:( FML

I'll update this post later.
