Interesting notes for my future reference-

Higher cals = clearer skin (so far). Odd since I have had more protein powder, bread and pasta which are usually culprits. What if I have been chronically underfeeding myself for the last 15 years. May be a reality.
Higher cals = absence of elbow pain. Pain is almost completely gone with no additional work on my end. Weird. It's still there occasionally and will be tested after some pull ups this arvo but it's noticeably better.
Higher cals = no shift in weight. Workouts have been easy so far and the intensity and volume will rachet up in the coming weeks and months. Play the long game and look to your performance for indicators rather than daily body comp changes.

Strength and BJJ- I am most likely strong enough (stronger than most) to compete at local amateur BJJ tournaments. If I can lkeep whatever strength I have and add good cardio that will be a huge difference. Most guys training BJJ don't actually do the gym let alone do extra cardio on top of rolling/sparring. Revisit in a few months when cardio has increased to see.

Solid session. Upper back and traps still sore from front squats last week. Squats felt great and my second set of 7 was done continuously without break. Last squat clean at 70 was pretty good too. I was fairly fatigued but got the pull high enough and actually pulled myself under the bar instead of the usual power clean followed by a front squat.

Hapkido training
90 mins training. Lots of punching and kicking combos and some light sparring tonight. Finished with some throws and some box drills (avoiding punches whilst keeping in a 1m sq box). Great stuff.

Have been training the last month. Intermittently and I keep getting injured but still training. Wife has FAI so has stopped crossfit altogether and the comp was nixed. No reason for me to continue then. Enjoyed the training and if I was competing in crossfit I would have continued but the training is very competition specific. Started on another strength program and got 2 weeks in before I noticed that I just wasn't recovering well enough for doing hap and BJJ. Restarted again last week, got 2 solid days of training in and decided to do a 5k run on Wednesday. Rolled the absolute shit out of my ankle off the side of the footpath. Spent the rest of the week recovering. Body feels a bit trash and I'm 102kg (heaviest ever- I took the eating for my weight a little too seriously lol) so going back to ATG for the next 4-8 weeks. Whatever it takes to feel great again.

Once I'm good to go I'm thining of running through all the programs I've bought that have never seen the light of day. Highest on my list of unused programs are Hypertrophy Clusters (Jake Tuura), Strength System (Sebastian Oreb), Squat Strong (Lucas Parker- partially run a few years back) and a few bodybuilding programs. Might be a good way to spend the next 12 months without having to think about anything.

Either way, the next 4-8 weeks will be all about getting the body healthy again and dropping a few kgs.

BW- 99.2kg


Warm Up-
Shoulder Stuff

RDL- bar x 5, 60 x 5, 80 x 5, 5, 5
OHP- bar x 5, 25 x 5, 30 x 5, 5, 5
BB Row- bar x 5, 40 x 5, 60 x 5, 5, 5

L & R Plank- 3x30s each alternating

External Rotations- 3x10@3.5kg

Have still been training since last post but hadn't gotten around to logging. Training was all over the place though which is probably why. Have been trying to figure out a way to incorporate barbell training with flexibility training, some handstandy stuff and also martial arts. Going back to a barbell program by Anthony Mychal that I got a while back but never used. It's an A/B/A then B/A/B style program with a starting strength type progression. That's 3x per week which gives me the off days to do my flexibility, handstands and martial arts training.

Am also struggling to lose weight right now. Started this week at 100 even and am counting calories again. Down to 99.2 but have been this same weight for 3 days now. I'm eating around 2,600 cals a day which would usually get a larger reduction. Have been eating about 80% clean but must be missing something somewhere. Haven't been fasting though which is what I'm going to throw back in. Will fast till 1-2pm and eat a little cleaner for the next week to kick things off more.

Bunch of shooting around, kicking and punch practice and some stretching. Worked up a massive sweat and felt great. Total workout time of 60 mins. Main notes to take are:

5 Step Horse Stance- 45s (goal of 5 minutes with thighs parallel to floor)
Long Lunge- 45s/side  (goal of 90s/side before increasing distance between legs)



Rolled my ankle like a motherfucker on Sunday night. It didn't feel too bad the next day and still trained for two days on it. Wednesday rolled around (see what I did there) and it was killing me. Took the day off and spent most of it with my foot elevated. Feeling much better today so will get back and do Wednesday's session this afternoon.

Warm Up-
Reverse Deadmill x 2mins
Tib Raise & Calf Raise

Squat- bar x 10, 50 x 5, 72.5 x 5, 5, 5
Incline Bench- bar x 10, 40 x 5, 62.5 x 5, 5, 5
Chins- bw x 4, 4, 4, 4, 4

Done. Squats felt pretty good today. Much better than last time. Bench felt strong and chins were good too. Going to edge up on chins before adding weight.

Need to remind myself to stick to this program. It's a long term venture and also gives me the time inbetween sessions to explore other areas of training that I want to do.

Alright, time to make one last run at being athletic before time takes me over.

Current stats- slightly fat & out of shape
BW- 99.7kg this morning

27/06/2022

6" Patrick Step Up - top set of 5 @ 50kg

Nordic- 4x5 @ 12" elevation
Parallette push ups- 4x5

Floor SL leg raises- 4x5 with 3s hold at top
Inverted Row- 4x5

Calf Raise- 2x10@15kg
Tib Raises- 2x10@6kg

Long Lunge- 2x60s
Calf Stretch- 2x60s

Overall goal is to be lighter and athletic again. More specifically I want to get to 85kgs. That will be the lightest in 10 years. I don't need to do too much on the strength front though as I know if I train consistently for 3-4 months I will get back to my normal strength levels which at 85kgs would be most likely good enough. I'm back playing basketball every second week and still training martial arts so trying to get as much out of my body as possible for those two.
