Back to Work

So today is the day I'm back in the gym again. Like I mentioned last time, I lost over 6lbs over the weekend due to a serious illness. I felt better so I went back to the gym today.

During the day, I kept pondering whether what I should do in the gym. Should I be lifting heavy? Should I be doing cardio or should I just do a full body workout? Then I realized, I should wait till I step into the gym and I'll know because my instincts have never lied to me.

So I decided to start of with some very light deadlifts to warm up my lower back and hamstrings:
2 x 10 @ 120lbs
Like I said, it was really light.
I maintained that weight and did some power cleans:
3 x 5 @ 120lbs

Wide-grip chin-ups:
3 x 6 @ body weight

Hyperextensions:
3 x 10 @ body weight (Super slow negatives)

Parallel-grip chin-ups:
3 x 6 @ body weight

Good mornings:
3 x 10 @ 40lbs (Bar only, super slow negatives)

Reverse-grip chin-ups:
3 x 6 @ body weight

I then went on to work on some abs:
Tri-sets (3 x 20 each):
1. Crunches
2. Raised-legged crunches
3. Double crunches
And I finished up with 3 x 15 of leg raises.

So that's about it. Like I said, this is just a light workout but because of not being fully recovered and trust me, with just these, they are already enough to suck the life outta me. But hey, when a man's gotta rest, a man's gotta rest.

Oh and yeah, I thought of rather than doing things randomly, I will begin to stick to certain plans like I used to do but this time, probably with a twist and I'll stay onto a single plan for a longer period. So the title will tell you what plan I'm roughly in with which week and day I'm into the plan.

So that's all for now. See ya next time.
