Wed 5/26/21 - Full Body (Squat)

Garage Gym

(Squat)95x6,125x4,145x3,165x6,180x6,190x6,175x6,6

(Incline1Ct)95x6,,135x4,155x6,160x6,165x6,155x6,6

(SLDL)135x8,155x8,185x8,225x8,8,8

66 mins

Started with squat for 6 reps @RPE 7,8,9 -8% 2x6. Working up felt good so bumped more than scheduled on 2nd and top working set. Back offs were good. Warm and humid this morning and first workout of the year I've really needed a towel to wipe sweat off my face/head. Next was incline w/ 1count pause for 6 reps @RPE 7,8,9 -5% 2x6. These were good. Same top weight as last week at about same RPE, but higher back offs this week. Finished up with SLDL. Warmup set at 135 felt heavy, but 155 and 185 felt good so I went up to 225 and rated these @RPE7ish.

Nutrition/Weight:

180.2 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.
