a_ahmed Posted March 14, 2020 Author Share Posted March 14, 2020 I had some kind of stomach virus yesterday and couldn't eat all day... shat like 6 times and diarrhea. Today finally ate and I am heading in to deadlift but I am not expecting a huge workout as I am underfed. Also ran out of gear, BT no response yet, I hope they are okay.

a_ahmed Posted March 20, 2020 Author Share Posted March 20, 2020 4 days of working from home and gyms closed... im feeling mighty stressed out.. heard trudeau said weeks or months... i don't know how im gonna handle this. I'm a very physical and active person, outdoorsy and can't stand being in front of a screen even though my work is in front of a screen... all the more reason to hate screens. Binge watching netflix and shows not helping.. my lower back is killing from sitting on the couch all day... outside is zombie land. Everyone is hoarding social media, its sad... more active than ever.. and internet everywhere seems to have slown down even my work's teleconferencing system (from cisco), it's crawling for us all. Wow just one week without physical activity and I'm feeling shit mentally and physically. I dont know how some people live full time as coach potatoes... I dropped my hormones to 200mg test-e per week and 200mg mast-e per week... Was gonna place an order the usual from BT... and still will.. but wont be running it until i realize whats going on. Didn't find any monkeybars in parks worth using... around me anyway... feeling shitty completely shitty and work for both my wife (working from home) are overworking us its insane.. and now its like yeah we dont drive but its like before start time and post start time and work cells... on full alert... and at same time kinda scary as a lot of ppl are losing jobs... we're fucked if we lose our jobs will lose our house...

a_ahmed Posted April 5, 2020 Author Share Posted April 5, 2020 Well my bands are lost in Texas and apparently vendor will ship with DHL so I am waiting. I've lost 3/4" off my arms already so sad... The only workout I got was walking 20km the other day and sanding/painting room in house (large space). It was tiring and showed my shoulder is still not fully recovered. I got some cardarine from bodytech so ill run 20mg a day during this period... Once house is fixed up (work in progress) will go back to some home work outs... Can't wait for this too be all over at least we are kicking america's ass in how we're handling it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
instagrande Posted April 5, 2020 Share Posted April 5, 2020 ^ I'm in the same boat as you man. Stuck in limbo and watching gains fade haha. I've got resistance bands but that's it. No school or park nearby me to use for pull-ups and shite like that. I feel drained and lethargic. Nice to go on a walk now and then. I'm waiting for the tren and anavar to clear my system so I can go running. I tried running twice this week and not even 10 minutes in I'd get the worst shin pumps and back pumps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_ahmed Posted May 5, 2020 Author Share Posted May 5, 2020 (edited) Just checking in after a while of nothing... literally only did two workouts.... and in start just pushups... then the board for pushups/shoulders/triceps had a good session then nothing since got lazy then finally ressitance bands came and i did one workout but got scared that ill smack my face when stuck in door... Over 2 months in quarantine and my ass lost muscle and gained lots of fat I am sad, depressed and pissed... Tonight attempting to put together first workout with resistance bands and hoping to get back into it. I am so used to doing weights... that without a gym I feel bonkers. Mentally sucks as all I've become is a coach potato eating and sitting not going out.. yesterday was the first day I got out as the weather was amazing. Just been house bound, work from home and groceries I am sitting at around 265lbs~ fatty vs the previous 250lbs~ firm... can't fit into some cloths its sad. I got compliments on my legs before in my gym pants, now the gym pants make me show a tire and no legs lmao... I am to work from home until June 1st as per work order... and I hope gyms reopen before that... if it was me working fromh home and gyms are opened i would have made some serious progress but nope... just like majority i'm screwed. The luckuy few have sneak access to gyms or their own home gyms... Oh dear God.. the moment gym is open.. I am full reset and going bonkers at the gym...

Ryujiin Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Keep on it man. Things will re-open and you will bounce back pretty fast. How did the band workout go? There are always people here to talk to when you start feeling down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_ahmed Posted May 13, 2020 Author Share Posted May 13, 2020 Well this is a shit deal, out of no where my right shoulder (same one I was in rehab for a while) has been acting up and started getting real bad to the point it hurts to raise my arms... WHY?! I haven't been even putting strain on it... I need to get an ultrasound on this shit... but doctors... rehab places are all more or less closed. Don't feel like visiting any docs or hospitals in this nightmare either... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryujiin Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 You a heavy side sleeper man? Random I know, but I have woken up a few times from a rough sleep were I actually pinched a nerve in my shoulder because of the way I was sleeping on it and moving in the night.

a_ahmed Posted June 5, 2020 Author Share Posted June 5, 2020 So my fat ass is sitting at 260lbs, not muscular, sad sad, and all I keep thinking of is when are gyms reopening, I can't wait anymore. My butcher where I buy meat, family, wife, everyone is like oh you got fat.. LOL So wife's been on me to change habits, but frankly she has bad habits herself. But her sister got her convinced to do some online youtube workout video so she did it before yesterday and yesterday. I was gonna do it with her the first day but was tired from all the work too late at night, I saw it and while it's 'for girls' its purely sports/martial arts/gymnastic type bodyweight exercises which I used to do back in the day when I did sports and martial arts so I'm very familiar (some workout videos like p90s have these types too). So last night I did it and man it was alright, first I surprised myself cardio-wise, second, despite my bodyweight I did it fairly well and actually got a pump lol. It was effective for core, legs and glutes. My legs were pumped. Also I have that shoulder problem, the planks, pushups, burpees and other things I did actually made my shoulder feel better once I got blood flowing. So we're doing a 'two week challenge' of this lets hope for some good. I woke up this morning and my legs are actually a bit sore lol. as far as supplements go I started incinerate mornings, 1 pill var and 1 pill stano if i work out, I am on a cruise dose of test and mast. So lets call this a mild start... hopefully gyms open fast though lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a_ahmed Posted June 25, 2020 Author Share Posted June 25, 2020 lmao so my ass didn't do any workouts and neither did the wifey since. However I did an actual dumbbell workout yesterday! It's hilarious I feel lactic acid in my biceps and traps! I haven't felt that since I first lifted in college! I donated 80lbs dumbbells (home made using 1" plates) few years ago to an old building. I asked and took them back. So first, damn it felt heavy holding 80lbs in both arms, I got weak, I used to throw that stuff around before lol. I took it down to 20lbs and 40lbs and used those for my workout. I think I'm gonna do for legs/core that girly video my wife made me do and then for arms/shoulders dumbbells. I need to find some 2.5, 5 and 10lbs 1" plates for cheap some place then i can transform them up to 100lbs for rows eventually. I was hoping gyms reopen july 12th but from the looks of it nothing... For hell of it i'll post workout here later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_ahmed Posted June 26, 2020 Author Share Posted June 26, 2020 Alright I am going to post my first log in nearly four months! Sadly I won't be doing nothing exciting for a while BUT I'll at least begin my restart! I don't care how bad anything seems. I went to home depot today for the home made dumbbells to get some kind of spacers. I was exploring a few different ideas to be able to size down the dumbbell from 80lbs down to 40lbs and 20lbs. At 60lbs the bolts go in and there is no movement, but at 40 or 20 the plates wobble as the two bolts that thread through the dumbbell bar hit one another. I was able to get some 1" ID and 1" length PVC piping, just tested it and works great! I was unable to find shorter 1" ID bolts at home depot only 3/4" (that's as large as they go). Likewise was unable to get any kind of nuts or treaded rods at that ID size, only 3/4". Wednesday June 24 Started 6pm, finished 7pm Db curl All of them were shit form ooh boy! 40lbs felt like paper before.. now even my form was questionable it felt REALLY tough! 40x8 40x8 40x8 40x8 Lateral db I am still sadly screwed with my right shoulder One would think after about 4 months of no gym that I would feel better.. I hope to God some of the training will get blood in there, in between sets I was doing shoulder rotations and it seemed to help. 20x15 20x15 20x12 20x13 Bent Tricep extension What a weak ass, I used to have horseshoes and could whip more than double the weight on this before... although I rarely still did this exercise any longer, it was always easy for me. 20x14 20x15 20x13 20x6 Cable band sideways I placed the 25lbs strength band at about shoulder height inside the door with the stopper it comes with and went sideways. The right suffered. 25x13 25x15 Front raises I can't do standing shoulder presses, because I will hit the ceiling (I am a tall guy and the ceiling ain't unlimited in a house room lol). Considering I stopped training shoulders all together this actually was maneagable. Mind you I did more than double on these in the past... my shoulders vanished anyways since I stopped training them before even covid due to injury so I'm happy to even start here... I also tried perpendicular raises, I feel that hits laterals a bit too, a bit harder in some way and a bit easier other ways the way that feels so I just varried it up. 20x12 20x13 20x13 20x15 20x14 perpendicular raises 20x12 perpendicular raises 20x12 perpendicular raises Cable band sideways 25x18 = Threw an in between set to help aleviate how shoulders feel Cable band rear delt pull I was trying to figure out how to hit rear delts with what I had at my disposal.. so I used the band in the door and in the air standing pulled it behind me... felt okay not really challenging... I wish I could do seated face pulls with an actual tricep rope but that ain't gonna happen buddy... 25x13 25x19 25x18 Cable band sideways 25x13 one more to finish up COC (Captains of Crush) Yo... the only things I've been pushing and gripping around has been my mouse and keyboard for work, this is some next level sadness, my grip strength vanished, so as a result I literally went and started with the baby starter ones... not even 1.0 but in time I know this'll come back for me... G x 13 T x 13 T x 18 T x 10 Lateral db raises 20x14 - One last one to finish off I didn't do that video workout tonight, considering how lazy I was this was good nuff of a start. I swear to God my biceps feel like the first time I did bicep curls in college, serious lactic acid, can't fully extend my arm! My traps are also hurting and sore from the lateral raise as it also hits the traps. I kind of missed the sore feeling, yeah buddy! It's pretty pathetic, but you know what, at least it'll get some of the newb feel out after such a long break when and if gyms reopen, I'd be killing myself with lactic acid every day for a while if gyms reopen, so this is a good way to start myself of. The plan is... do something along these lines maybe pushups every other day and then in between the leg/ass/core workout videos I am 260+ so... anything with my ass bouncing around is gonna challenge legs, core and ass hahaha!

I'll take some pix of what I'm working with to make this thread interesting as this is indeed pretty damn boring doing a restart, at least before it was nice to see me progressing and struggling and progressing but here it's a complete boring restart with mediocre equipment and exercises....

a_ahmed Posted June 30, 2020 Author Share Posted June 30, 2020 This was yesterday's workout. One thing I've realized is not only did I get weaker, and I'm getting my ass kicked by lactic acid, my endurance is a hell of a lot down and I'm not even on tren haha... This workout I was able to push through a bit on some stuff more than last time, it's too soon to be like omg gains, but I think it's just mind-muscle memory. Even though it's been nearly 4 months... I've trained for years that it should all come back.. it usually goes... strength first, mass next, physique/look last. Monday June 29 Start: 750pm Finish: 845pm DB curl 40x10 was 8 40x10 hard 40x10 40x10 40x10 self assisted COC T x 14 in T x 14 in, 8 out 1 x 11 in, T x 12 out 1 x 8 in, T x 14 out Lateral DB 20x20 was 15 20x20 was 15 20x15 was 13 20x15 was 13 Cable band sideways (rotator) 30x12 hard on right side real bad but better than last time 30x13 30x13 Bentover Tricep single extensions 20x16 was 13 20x16 was 13 20x13 20x6 Facepulls with two handle band stuck in door 30x20 45x28 not really right hard to feel or make challenging tried sitting too. Scares me to get smacked in face 45x20 tried wide stance standing wirh pause felt better 45x 12 COC 1 x 8 in slippery from sweat T x 16 in slippery Kai green style DB rows 40 x 14 40 x 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_ahmed Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) Tuesday June 30 2020 Start: 6:09pm Bathroom Break: 6:50pm back 6:58pm Finish: 7:30pm Warmed jumping Jacks Cable band sideways 30x14 30x15 added set 30x15 added set Db lateral raises 20x19 need higher plates 20x19 was 16 20x 3 + 40x4 was 20x 18 too hard need 30lbs 20x 3 + 40x4 was 20x18 same Chest (Floor Power Press) C2 x 12 was 8 C2 x 12 C4 x 8 was c4 x 6 last first attempt on this one C4 x 12 C4 x 12 COC (Captains of Crush) T x 15 in T x 16 out Cable band sideways 30x14 Chest (Floor Power Press) C3 x 9 was 7 C3 x 9 C3 x 12 forced it hard Half Facepulls (single hand combined band pull from door) 30x18 30x15 tired Db front raises 40x10 hard but focused 40x8 super hard drop set follows 20x16 Bathroom break Chest (Floor Power Press) C1 x 11 pain in right Single arm angled Cable band fly / press (both sides performed per set) 30x15 30x12 30x15 30x 8 dead tired COC 1 x 8 out - very hard had to cheat a bit Jumping Jacks Shadow boxing in mirror Lateral db 15x16 super slow and controlled without stopping contraction or pausing 15x18 same Db curls (slow and pause on high peak contraction. Each Rep) 20x8 20x13 same but Hammer angle Face pull with band and double handles 70x18 I was scared for my face and could hardly focus lol, getting smacked by that tension of the band... Finishing off with Jumping Jacks and dancing to the beats lol So so far, what I'm noticing is one week later, my muscles are 'waking up', lactic acid has been bad on everything I barely touched on. For instance the jumping jacks and dancing around literally made my calves and quads sore yesterday and today I'm a bit better. So I have to get through this newbie restart phase. Also for anyone curious currently on my little 'cruise', there's no need to run anything more, even though I'm tempted to hop on tren but i'm in such shit shape as is... T400 1cc a week Mast-E 200 1.5cc a week 20mg var morning or preworkout (some days skipped) 20mg stanolone preworkout 200mg caffeine preworkout invicerate morning and/or preworkout (the yohimbine is contributing to major bloat so i dont like that) The other day i did throw in albuterol preworkout one pill instead of invicerate... debating what to do Also since I am restarting I am considering throwing in ipamorelin/mod-grf and cardarine... im fat as fuck...

a_ahmed Posted July 2, 2020 Author Share Posted July 2, 2020 (edited) So since my log is not that interesting with a restart I am going to show some pix, maybe even of my fat ass. First of all my ghetto gym Power Press Complete Pushup Training System: This is what I use for chest training, allows you to go deeper and to not cheat, as well as to always have a consistent position or angle Edited July 2, 2020 by a_ahmed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
