So frustrating. I hear ya. Got around to weighing myself today and it looks like the holiday cheer cost me about 5 lbs. Well worth it though.

I reckon you got away with that, considering there was undoubtedly beer, chocolate and many days of excessive cal consumption Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say 2-3 days per week during that time I was “good”, ate decent and worked out (kinda), but for the most part I was a bottomless pit. Beer, booze, sweets, bbq, you name it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiefer Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Started body weight exercises about a week ago. I'm trying to commit myself to it, I'm skinny so I'm trying to actively eat more and gain weight. At about 130 now(im5'7) so i set a goal at about 165-170 for the end of the year. Me and the ex used to talk about it but now that were broken up I feel even more motivated now lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been surprised. I've chalked it up to the cold, and NYE falling on a Sunday. I'd imagine it will pick up next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I have not, but I don't really use supps outside of creatine and vitamins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skywindO2 Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 I switched to a PHUL routine for the new year. Liked the way it worked for the first week but I'm wondering if how strict the day orders are meant to be? I couldn't find anything on it but based on the routines other regulars at my gym do, I think I'd have a better time doing it PHLU instead, if you know what I mean. Is there any reason I shouldn't do it like that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gnat Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 First day back into it after the holidays. I need to get back into a better routine. With moving between contract positions it's tricky to keep as consistent a schedule as I'd like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any reason I shouldn't do it like that? No. Most people that do upper/lower splits do upper first, because lower is more taxing on the body. It can be difficult to do a heavy upper day, the day after a heavy lower day, if you're not adapted to doing that. Most programs will have their scheduled rest days after your lower body days vs your upper body days. I do lower first, because 1. I like to be fresh, and 2. it allows me to miss the crowd for international chest day. While everyone is battling over benches, I get free reigns on the squat racks, and vice versa. The clearest weekdays to squat and deadlift in most gyms always seem to be Mondays and Fridays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
