Default 2019 OT Fitness Strength/Conditioning Thread

This is a place to list your 2019 and beyond fitness goals!

This thread is here as a log for whoever wants to use it as such as well as a place to ask questions about your fitness endeavors.

Last year's thread: 2018 OT Fitness Strength/Conditioning Thread

2018 had a lot going on for me, jacked up my adductor, bought a house and had a baby, but also started our home gym build. Hoping to get back to more structure in the upcoming weeks, though I'm sure it'll be hard with a little one.

The only powerlifting\strength gym in town closed last week due to lack of members, which really bummed me out. It was a great spot with competition combo racks, specialty bars, and calibrated plates. I don't have the room for a home gym so I'm stuck going to a commercial gym.

I'm planning on competing in April again, hopefully the equipment changes don't throw me off too much. Still running the Calgary Barbell program.

I started playing basketball again in late October with some other dads. I tipped the scales at 204 and felt drained every time, cramps in the calves, not enough stamina. Diet was crap as well, just pretty much eating anything I saw, lots of snacking ,etc. I started watching what I was eating and when, logging it, drinking more water, joined a local snap fitness in December. It allows me to get into the gym atleast 3x a week after the kids / wife go to sleep. It isn't the greatest but it has decent equipment / space, is nearly empty during that time frame, cheap, close to home and they have a couple of racks. Currently doing a 3x push-pull-legs routine to get a decent baseline. I forgot how much I liked working out and how good at stress relief it is. Current weight is at 194, strength sucks but I'll get there.

Gained some fat and some strength over the holidays.

Running a program that is admittedly heavy on upper body volume with lower body strength movements. Lower body work is just SSB squats and RDLs, plus Deadlifts, deficit deads and block pulls. Upper body is mostly machine and DB work. 6 days a week in a modified push pull similar to this program - been on it since september and have really noticed some good size gains.

https://www.t-nation.com/workouts/th...lifters-part-2

Push Day 1

Workout Length: 54 minutes

Below image is 0 months / 6 months / 12 months training. Big thanks to the OT thread for keeping me honest, too.

Haven't really lifted at all since mid November. Can anyone recommend some good regimes? I was doing 5x3x1 with some solid noob gains. I want to really focus on my back/legs this time around.

Yep, I like it. The deadlift variations are dialed back some in intensity so it's not terrible. Squats are 3x a week and benching is 4.

Speaking of deadlifts, tonight got me a bit winded.

Deadlift
405x5x5 added belt on third set

3 count pause bench
225x3x3

Embarrassingly light front squats. I was doing SSB squats at my old gym because my wrists don't care for the front rack position.

Cable rows

So I'm still a noob. I tried dynamic stretching instead of my static stretching for 20 to 30 mins before whatever exercise I'm doing that day. I feel like my body is in pain . I don't know why. I started to static stretch after and it felt great...each stretch took the pain away. Was my body just used to static stretching all these years and all of a sudden I changed my routine, it's like "**** You".

My wife has a trainer that comes over twice a week. I had yesterday morning off, so I decided to join them. They had me do this resistance band butt workout. Jesus Christ my ass hurts today.

I think I may have asked this before. I need a protein powder supplement for mixing into shakes and potentially for baking / cooking. Looking for relatively low carb (<10g ideally) , decent flavor in vanilla / chocolate flavor. Are there any recommendations?

I haven't tried them all but I swear by Dymatize Elite Gourmet for both mixing and baking. Have two 5lb jugs of just vanilla and chocolate at home now.

Their 100% whey one is 3-5g of carbs depending on which flavor.

Gym closed the 1st of the year. Stopped by Muv today... ugh, what a crapfest. Need to fix the AC in the garage and get back to work in my own gym.

The older I get, the more I detest being hot or cold.

Light db bench and cardio this morning. Hoping to get back on a regular schedule next week.
