Sun 12/20/20 - Full Body (Deadlift)

Garage Gym

(Deadlift)135x8,185x5,225x3,265x3,285x3,305x4,255x6,6

(Bench2Ct)150x10,160x10,170x10,160x10

(Incline)145x8,125x12,8

(DBShldr)35x12,30x15

69 mins

Started with deadlift. Higher reps has been hard on my knees, so I decided to reduce reps a bit and see how that goes. Felt really good today, pleased with the effort. Will have to see how knees feel the next 1-2 days. Paused bench went well. Top set was @RPE 9-9.5, as was the back off set. Not RPE10’s, but definitely 9+. Shoulder felt good. Incline first set bothered my R shoulder. I think I losoe position and tightness on incline with heavier weights. Backoff set 1 went well, shoulder felt good, kept better position. 3rd set I was just fried. Finished up with shoulder press. Very nice workout.

Nutrition/Weight:

181.6 this morning.

A little about my journey...

Hi, my name is Kip. On July 24th, 2011 I made a decision to change my life. At the time I weighed 250 pounds, was sedentary, my blood pressure was 170/110 and I was already on a max dose of BP medication to control it. I was well on my way to turning 40 and having a heart attack. This blog is about what I’m currently doing to improve my health and my journey to get my life and health back under control to get to where I am 9 months after starting (Apr 2012) - which is 170 lean pounds, no blood pressure meds and a new outlook on life.

I decided to start this blog for 2 reasons. First, it's a record where I can look back to see what’s working and what isn’t so I can make improvements. Second, a lot of people have asked me what I've done to transform my body, so hopefully it can help someone else glean some helpful information they can incorporate into their lives to make positive impactful changes. So, here it is. Since I'm just starting this blog 9 months in, I'll post a few blogs to recap in more detail where I was and how I got here. Going forward I'll be posting workouts and training/diet/nutrition information I think others can benefit from. I didn’t re-invent the wheel, so I’ll be referencing materials I use along the way. Below there's a picture taken shortly after a body fat test in May 2013.
