Level III

No splits

Take care of your ankle-- no need to overdo it. A bit of rest should do right?
And yes, it sucks when something doesn't go exactly as planned..!
Besides, your pull-ups and chin-ups are solid tho!

Thanks noname,
Yeah I've been dosing it with voltaren since Saturday, and strapped it since yesterday, so really hoping it heals up real soon >|

Endurance gains?

Epilogue:

And so it’s the end of this journey through [Combat] HIIT.
I have to be honest...I kinda felt like this didn’t do as much for me as I had hoped.
Looking back, I feel I should most definitely have managed my time better, and perhaps aimed to hammer in more than one a day, which would most certainly have given me much better results.

My stats remain unchanged from when I started this program.

on the plus side: New badge!!!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

05-03-2017

a little preparation for what I got planned next...



50 Burpees a day: Day 5

Pull-ups in one go: 22

Congrats on the new badge!!!

Also a "Congrats to your New badge!" from way up north

Okay, onto the next one.

Time for another change I reckon, after [Combat] HIIT, my body needs a bit of a shock to get past this plateau,

I had been thinking of it during the last few days of [Combat] HIIT, and did a bit of lurking around the Playground section of the Hive, and came across that 300 Bicep Curls+300 Push-ups a day for 10 days
experiment from a while back.
So I thought to get into that, however my protocol will be slightly different since I don't have dumbells, but I do have a barbell, so instead of 300 alternating curls, I shall do 150.
The current weight for the barbell is 16KG.
Depending on how things will go, this may or may not change.

This experiment will serve as a supplement to daily workouts I have chosen for the next 10 days, from the workout section.

It will also be interesting to see if any of my stats will change:

Current Stats:

Weight: 74Kg

Bodyfat: 12%

Musclemass: 46%


So here we go:

Day 1

The curls felt a whole lot more manageable than what I had expected, however, I’m not going to get to comfortable with this, since it’s only day 1, so we shall see what happens in the days to come.
The push-ups was a slightly different story. Round about set #6, it felt quite awkward at the beginning of each set; my arms had trouble responding to my brain’s commands for them to perform the push-up, but after the 3rd or 4th rep, they got going again.

Work out of the Day:


The Enforcer - Level II
Only managed a level II on this one, I underestimated the time it takes to complete this workout.
Also, I had not realized it was a Level IV workout

50 Burpees a day: Day 6

Chin-ups in one go (parallel grip): 22 ( arms feeling the effects)

07-03-2017
Day 2

A little bit of DOMS started to creep in today, the push-ups were becoming quite laboured.
The same as the previous day...
Round about set #5;
The first few reps my arms struggled to respond, but after that they move again.

Work out of the Day


Vanguard - Level III

This was a pretty good leg workout.
Plus working the VO2 Max!

50 Burpees a day: Day 7

Pull-ups in one go: 20 ( yep, arms were seizing up)

08-03-2017

Day 3

DOMS is definitely starting to grab hold now, still manageable, but it’s making itself known.
On a flip side, there appears to be some strength and endurance gains already!
The seizing up part during the push-ups only started setting in at around set #8. Quite surprised!

Workout of the day


Survey Corps - Level III

Out running and jumping titans today!

50 Burpees a day: day 8

Chin-ups in one go(classic): 25

09-03-2017

Day 4

Felt better today actually, the DOMS not as prominent as it was the day before, and strength gains surprised me yet again.
The breaks between sets were a lot shorter too.

Workout of the day



Cardio Beast - Level III

Phew, this one really took the VO2 Max to town, guess thats what you get for taking shorter breaks.
During the first set, my legs had trouble responding to the brain’s command to do the jump tucks!

50 Burpees a day: day 9

Chin-ups in one go( wide grip): 20

Tired.
