October 13, 20179 yr #4131 yeah, because I'm not doing power lifting and not going anywhere near my 1RM's for the exercises, I don't need as much rest between sets
October 13, 20179 yr #4132 Yeah I think the heaviest I go is about 60 to 70% at the moment. I'm looking forward to doing some strength training in about 6 weeks or so.
October 13, 20179 yr #4133 Does anyone keep track of their workouts? I have been using the app Jefit since the start. Great motivation to see where I was at etc. Also you can put in a timer in between sets to keep you from slacking off.
October 13, 20179 yr #4135 going old school, physically writing it down it's definitely a good idea to keep track. An app is an easy way to do that. I just have my workouts memorized and don't necessarily keep track in that sort of way.
October 13, 20179 yr #4136 I have used excel for programming in the past and just sent it to my phone for later gym use.
October 13, 20179 yr #4137 Yea all my workouts are memorized too, I just love seeing the graphs and stats attached as well. It's definately a great motivator seeing your past lifts.
October 13, 20179 yr #4138 Same with weight loss. I've got a good looking graph from myfitnesspal where I lost 10kg or so then slowly put it back on in the form of (mostly) muscle.
October 14, 20178 yr #4139 Managed to curl 70kg today just for the hell of it. 60 went up easy and almost knocked some teeth loose and 80 was farken nope.
October 15, 20178 yr #4140 sounds good puffwagon, smashed the gym this morning, feeling great now! 3 sets of 8-10 reps of everything (weight is all up including bar) 50kg bench press, 12.5kg dumbell incline press and db shoulder press, 5kg seated db lateral raise, 12.5kg barbell front raise, 20kg ezy bar bicep curl, 9kg seated db bicep curl to finish up (was farked by this point) I do a little warmup for 20 minutes but not counted cause I was moving at snails pace hhaha. I might check out the app kink mentioned or one similar as I currently reference a photo of my workout that was written up by a trainer so something more useful could be good.
