Sonny's Training Journal

[Sonny]

Current Stats: 6' 225#

Training style: Powerlifting

*Currently under bodyweight and over on body fat. Just pulled my hip out 3 weeks ago. Went for a few adjustment (left leg was like 2" longer than right) which was quite painful, a lot on ibuprofen, some stretching and now I am ready baby! WWHHOOOOO!

*numbers are going to be down for a few weeks but so it goes. Was just going to wait to start the log but mind as well get things rolling around here.

*it is going to be slow going for a few weeks whether I feel good or not. Cannot afford any more injuries. Have a few meets planned for this fall and want to have some fun so....

*I figure 1 month to get back into decent shape/strength and then 4 weeks to up the intensity a bit. Wrote down my goals so I will share and we will see if I make them: SQ 500x3 BP 365x3 DL 575x3. This should give me about 550-400-625 and get me ready for fall training and meets. These are not my maxes but think these are realistic if I am healed.

*Felt great to train! Hip felt great! Legs felt weak but I will take it. Went heavier than planned, oh well right? Sunk the squats and I felt good. Volume was of course very low but that was for obvious reasons.


Training today was a success in my book. :smile:

Cool videos. I was thinking about doing some vids of myself in the gym. Friday I plan on taking some pictures of me in the gym. I have been saying that for a long time but I am for sure now lol.

No training today. Feel good. Walked for about 1 mile and it was hot. This is major cardio for me.

Got my last adjustment tonight-feeling pretty good. Said I was still swollen a bit but am healing.
