Well guys, I have not worked out in over 3 years now. I am fat and out of shape. I use to compete bodybuilding and the highest weight I was was 225 also use to be a personal trainer. I will be posting starting pics next week. Along with work outs here. Currently I am a plump 210. Haha. I just picked up my gym membership today to train with my cousin who is a college athlete. I hope you enjoy following my journey.

Jumped the gun and went to the gym today. Oh well. I am 5'7" and weighed in at 223lbs. (13 more pounds than I was last time I stepped on a scale)
Today's workout was a quick one and I tried not to over do it since its been forever since I actually trained.
Chest and Triceps
Hammer Strength incline press: (each side) 45x10, 70x8, 90x10
Cable cross over down: 25x10, 35x10, 40x8
Machine dips: 90x10, 140x8
Cable pushdown: 45x10, 55x8
Training session lasted 25 mins.
That's all I did today, didn't want to do too much and injury myself. It's been about 6 hours since my training session and I can feel the fatigue in my muscles. I am so out of shape. But I know that by training I will get some of my size and strength back quick.Last edited by M-C; 12-20-2018, 10:51 PM.Comment

Currently I am not worrying about diet, first I want to get my training schedule down. Also I am not taking any supplements. I've learned from 12 years of bodybuilding that if one does too much at once the chances of getting burned out is greater than slowly getting into things.
But I look forward to my next training session of LEGS. Which I use to love doing, let's see if the love is still there on Saturday.Comment

I was going to take today off because my friend could show because of a family Christmas Eve event. But I went anyways. Just another quick training session. Trained shoulders and got a little blood flow to the muscles I trained earlier in the week.
Shoulders
Lateral flies (machine) 35x10, 45x10, 55x8
Bent over flies: 15x10, 25x10, 35x10
Barbell Shrugs: 135x10x3
Like I said, I didn't do too much shoulders would usually be combined with back and bicep day. Than quickly did light hamstring curls and leg extensions to get some blood flow into them. This week has mostly been to get the muscles use to moving the weight, to remember the form and the get an idea of what weight I should be lifting for each exercise. But overall I am feeling good and am excited to be in the gym after my Long hiatus from training. I can't wait to start going to momentary failure.
Merry Christmas Everyone!Comment
