Beefcake's BP Cut - 2 Runs
Posted: Tue Jan 04, 2011 8:31 am
Yoooo... first run flopped, so this will be my first full run.
I started Jan 2nd, so today is my 3rd day of Famine, so far so good. Will be doing the 2nd workout tonight when I get off work.
My HR watch is not very good at finding my minimum HR in the morning so I let it run while I'm half passed out (usually after having walked around so it's a little higher than it should be); I let it run about 5 minutes and then shows me the average HR.
START PICS:
Day 1:
Weigh-in: 69.6kg
Waking HR: 75 (Min ~70?)
Cardio: 45 minutes @~159bpm
Cals: ~467
Workout:
BB Squats 65lbs x 6 / 6 / 6
1-Arm DB Rows 30lbs x 6 / 6 / 6
(Squats almost parallel; pic coming soon)
Standing EzBar Curl 30x6
Incline DB Hammer Curls 15x6
Standing EzBar Curl 30x6
Squats were a little lighter than they should have been but not by much - legs in the lower position are still VERY weak from my surgery. Rows were a comfortable full ROM weight, but I can do more. First set of curls were too easy but the hammer curls I fought for the last 2 reps and then the 2nd set of curls were brutal.
Day 2:
Weigh-in: 67.8kg
Waking HR: Avg 77 (min ~73)
Cardio: 45 min @~138bpm
Cals: ~807
Day 3:
Weigh-in: 67.6kg
Waking HR: Forgot to take
Cardio: 30 min @~125bpm (had some troubles...)
Cals: ~ 400
Workout:
WG Bench Press/DB Shoulder Press: 85lbs x 10 / 30lbs x 4
CG Bench Press/DB Shoulder Press: 75lbs x 8 / 20lbs x 7
Incline Bench Press/DB Shoulder Press: 65lbs x6 / 15lbs x 6
Decline Bench Press/DB Shoulder Press: 65lbs x 6 / 10lbs x 10
Decline CG Bench Press 55lbs x 9
Skullcrushers 20lbs x 10 (shouldve tried 25)
Tricep Kickback 10lbs x 10 (barely)
It's always a shock as to how much this workout absolute brutalizes me... I'm going to check out my other log to compare numbers.... I may have started out stronger this time but I know I got a hell of a lot weaker. I have only consumed maybe 200 calories today though...
Day 4:
Weigh-in: 66.5kg (-6.8 lbs)
Waking HR: ~78 avg (68 min) = difference: didnt have to go get my hr mon, wore it overnight. no walking pre-measurement.
Cardio: 60 min AM fasted
Cals: ~682
Day 5:
Weigh-in: 66.3kg (-3.3kg=-7.26lbs)
Waking HR (2min): avg 82 (min 72)
Cardio: 45min (fasted AM)
Cals: ~615
Workout:
BB Squats 65lbs x 12 / 12 / 12
1-Arm DB Rows 35lbs x 12 / 30 x 12 / 25 x 12
Pretty sure my HR was ~190 the whole time. 0 energy. no.. -100% energy. I'm goin to bed.
Oral Enemas. Suck.
The End:
Weight: 66.3kg
Waking HR: min= 73
