But I Don’t Wanna Diet!

Feh.

I’m over 20% bodyfat.

I should be starting a diet.

It really doesn’t feel like happening. Just not motivated. Don’t really care about having abs. Kinda more interested in deadlifting 500. Maybe I’ll just work on that. Not this workout though. Just as a general plan of attack.

Though if I had started this week I’d be done in time for my birthday.

I’ve never met a deadline like that before in my life.

So fuck it.

Workout for 9.7.10

8AM: Sucked down 2 scoops of EAS Premium Vanilla Shit and, because I wanted to try it, decided to sub-out ephedrine for yohimbine this morning in the interest of the cardio coming my way later on in the day. Turns out I was using the ephedrine more for its neurological-asskick than raw stimulatory power. 2.5mg yohimbine, 200mg caffeine.

Weight: 173lbs.
Fat%: 20.4%

The Strong Bit

Start Time: 9:05AM

Bench Press

1. 45lbs x 5
2. 45 x 5
3. 60 x 5
4. 80 x 3
5. 105 x 2
6. 120 x 2 (I should have only done one, my form was off and I neuro-fried myself for the rest of the workout)
7. 110 x 2 (pitiful)
8. 95 x 3 (but fried!)

Incline Bench

1. 45lbs x 5
2. 95 x 3
3. 105 x 1 (damn)

I stopped there. Nothing was moving, my arms were just done from that forced rep on the top set of benching.

Chin-Ass

1. 43lbs x 5
2. 88 x 3
3. 118 x 2
4. 138 x 3
5. 123 x 4
6. 103 x 6
7. 88 x 8 (went to failure)

HOLY YES! My first workout without a single chinny fuckup. Glorious day.

Strength Portion Completed at: 10:42AM, deep-throated another 5mg yohimbine.

Vanity Circuit

I didn’t have a lot of time to do this, I needed to be done by a quarter-after-eleven to have enough time to slave through some cardio before my ride arrived.

Calf Raise

1. 45lbs x 5
2. 60 x 5
3. 60 x 5
4. 60 x 24 (to failure)

These exercises are pretty much linear 3×5, with a warm-up set, because I don’t really give a shit about them but I don’t want it to look like that.

Increasing the weight here next time around.

Bicep Curl

1. 10lbs x 5
2. 10 x 5
3. 10 x 19

Increase.

Pushdown

1. 22.5lbs x 5
2. 27.5 x 5
3. 27.5 x 5
4. 27.5 x 16

I’m really not sure why I’m bothering with this exercise again.

Probably just because I’m guilty about the bicep curls.

Increase.

Vanity Completed: 11:03AM. Kickass. Glad I did it as a circuit.

Took a ten-minute break, then another 5mg yohimbine+200mg caffeine, and it was onto the stationary bike.

Cardio

Stationary Bike: 7.86 miles in 45 minutes @ level 2. My heart rate never went above 115bpm, so I’ll be increasing this to level 3 next workout. I don’t really buy into the whole “fat burning zone” thing, but I figure if I’m not AT LEAST at the minimum heart rate for that shit, I’m not working hard enough for it to be worth my time.

My goal is to get up to 13 miles per hour and then start increasing the duration of cycling.
