My sinus problem of the last four weeks

So hello and welcome again I am so glad that I have some space to tell people what I go through and hopefully someone can give me a relative solution. Like I’ve been telling you guys I have been having this blocked nose sinus for the last month well it is finally turned into a hectic flu I am losing my voice and my lungs are so blocked I can hardly breathe I think I’m on the way to bronchitis or Pneumonia so hopefully after this my sinus will clear up as well. I feel quite terrible and I have taken too much sick leave already. So I’m at work moaning and groaning but he I m here to get the job done that must at least count for something and man the training is at a complete halt now. I don’t want to go to the hospital soon.

On another note I am feeling so excited some nice turn of events at a personal level as you all know my home PC ‘s Hard drive crashed terribly and unfortunately I am not a big enough earner to just go out and buy a new one so my family has started working on a plan to get me another PC big up to them if it comes through then they will be the life of the Extreme body project well at least for me . Then my transport problems is also turning up I might get a motorbike soon I just hope the finance comes through then I am almost sweet. Things are definitely getting better. I am also looking into a new change in my life and well Ill only be able to tell you later what it turns out for so please keep your thumbs up for me and hopefully I can soon get back to training and write about what I do every day again.
Thanks and chat again tomorrow

So still down and out but getting back in there

So hello Guys what a terrible month for training he My Upper back is still out of commission but I am slowly working it back tomorrow I will start full steam again but with some change Maybe my age is starting to count against me for training too hard so I am going to have to go the hated split routine route just to build up some mass I will do A three day Split I haven’t completely worked it out yet But it will be like Chest and arm Back and Mid section and legs or something with a much missed 3rep two exercise split. So let’s see if I can then train a while without injury and then push it back up to a two day split and then hopefully back to a 1 day HST Based program and hopefully get the results as discussed in one of my previous posts. I will upload my new training schedule for you either later today or tomorrow just check in and hopefully we will get some better results.

Back Pain

So Sorry I have been offline the last week via internet and My Back, I was doing chin ups and as I got tired The last rep I dropped the weight too fast and my lower back cracked I could walk properly and was in a world of pain the doctor gave me some nice muscle relaxers and an injection to get spasm out that what he says . So on Saturday My back was starting to feel a lot better but then my upper back started cramping and now my upper back is sore probably from me concentrating on not using my lower back but hopefully very soon I will be able to train again The doctor even said I shouldn’t take to long to start training again well I will keep you posted I have a lot of cool new things I want to share with you soonest

Training to jumpstart soon

I am busy getting myself ready building up to get into the full swing of things soonest I train very heavy lately but not as hard as I can so I am going to get myself to train harder I just still have this sinus bothering me half the time I can’t breathe properly and still struggling every day. But well the show must go on I will upload some photos again soon and some measurements again and then we can do a measure and see how I have progressed since the start of the blog at least now the smoking is a thing of the past, I have a smoke on occasion when we BBQ or when I am really troubled but during the week mostly 4 or 5 smokes at all which is good so far I must now just completely quit I have a smoke on a stressful morning and that would be it for the day so from tomorrow on no smoking nothing Nada. It is hard though when everyone around you smokes, My Wife my Dad my brother every one of them. But it’s better for my health and growth.

Tip for the Day: Bigger Chest

Add progressive resistance for each workout to increments of about 10%
Proper form and mechanics

Make sure your bench mechanics are correct. Proper form is inductive to optimal growth and strength. Focus on moving the weight with your chest allowing for a controlled and fluid movement. Drive the bar up with muscle strength. Follow these techniques and your will ensure that you achieve full stimulation of the pectorals muscles.

• Always warm up properly first and foremost.
• Use a slightly wider than shoulder width grip.
• Your feet should be firmly planted on the floor with your butt on the bench at all times.
• Keep your elbows in a vertical line with the bar. That is, your elbows should be directly under the bar.

Use core chest exercises to support the bench press like barbell lifts incline Bench press dips and lat training

Boosting your deltoid and triceps strength will increase your bench-press

Enthusiastic about training

I was so enthusiastic about training this morning and I never got round to what a bummer man it was going to be my first training day after the illness again and what happened last night I went to bed early got everything ready for an awesome session this morning and at about 1:30 in the evening there was some shots in the neighborhood and also some police cars driving up and down and a lot of dogs that was barking So I only got back to sleep round about 3:00 to wake up at four and train again.

I couldn’t but tomorrow I will go and train I will I have so much enthusiasm for it I am wired I want to train myself to death so hard I want to train. Every now and then I watch some pro videos and man does that get me fired up, so what gets you fired up mentally. You know what I do and I think it is also sometimes counterproductive is I am small I hate being small and no matter how big I ever get I will keep on telling myself I am small if I see myself in a mirror I see my small little useless arms and second rated muscle tone etc.

I keep pushing myself down and then say I have to work harder and harder and harder still to get anywhere close to where I want to be that is my one method and the other one I employ is to match myself against other people I think can I take him or him yes I can or no that one I can’t I want to be able to walk down the mall and have no one who has thicker arms or bigger chest than me I must be the ultimate muscle machine and Naturally I will get there that is my other way of being positive and promoting myself to train more and harder. Keep yourself motivated and push yourself more its hard when you train alone trust me you listen to much to your body when your alone but just keep pushing and pushing and the results will follow they don’t have a choice.

So Hello guys it’s been a while with the training

So I still have this immense sinus drag in my nose and are struggling to train properly so at least I started with some outdoor functions I have added some new “equipment” to muscle building arsenal. I have a boxing bag which I placed in a grain bag so it can hang (all its clips broke off) So now I have a boxing bag and a new bicep curl shoulder press monster machine (Two Garage weights and a metal bar between the two, and I also have a Brick crate which I am not sure how much any of these things weigh but I use it to do my back training.

I pick it up and place it on a stack of bricks and then drop it down again and then go again. So why this weird outside training and all sorts of other materials and training equipment well like I said in one of my first posts sometimes my gym is locked and I can’t train.

So I train outside and it makes it very interesting to train outside and some of the features are different than a weight rooms. I will give you a COMPLETE weight breakdown of my outside material for your interest well let’s see I am planning on doing a hectic training session tomorrow so keep checking in and see my progress and tips.

Training Tips for Today: Biceps

1.) Do the biceps exercises with strict form. Don't cheat, leave your ego at the door. Don't jerk nor swing the weight, Strict form builds big biceps, it's okay to cheat a bit on the last rep or two, but the majority of the reps need to be done with strict form in order to build big biceps.

2.) The biceps tend to easily adapt to training routines, change your workout routine every 4-6 weeks, and alternate the exercises you're doing.

3.) Concentrate on the eccentric movement, the eccentric (negative) movement is the movement done when you're lowering the weight, from the end point of the movement to the starting movement. It's not just important to lift the weight, but the manner in which you lower the weight back to the starting position is also important and very often overlooked. Lower the weight in a controlled fashion and concentrate on your biceps while doing so. Most trainees neglect the negative portion of the movement and just drop the weight down as fast as possible.

4.) Try to squeeze hard at the top of the movement, squeeze / flex your biceps at the top of the movement, it works the biceps more thoroughly and puts more strain on it, which results with more size on the biceps.

5.) When doing barbell exercises try gripping the bar with the thumb under the bar. You normally wrap the thumb over the top of the bar, this time put it underneath the bar. Experiment a bit with this kind of grip, it tends to give out a better isolation in some cases, and a greater overall feel in the biceps when the biceps is worked.

So still not training but almost

I have fully recovered from the cold or flu I had, and I am making ready to get into the training thing again I have kept my word and keep waking up early even though I was sick. So I am almost back now will start getting loose tonight and then get back to training in the morning. Attached below is the routine I will follow in my search for greatness (Size & Power)I will upload the sheet as I go along filling it in and then you can really track my technique and see how it works and if it does work. Keep you posted

Just to explain the terms used the First column is Week 1 Rep count, the amount of reps I want to do per set (I am only going to start out with 2 sets a day) the second Colum is Week1 Weight count that is what I should use for the exercise and then the unfilled column is Week 1 Rep Max that is the 1 Rep Max test I wish to do at the end of every training week to measure strength. So I will only use this guide from next week onwards you can check my progress and I will then load some photographs again as well. And hopefully soon some videos

Well and fit again

Today I feel great I haven’t started training again as of yet but the illness has left me. I am feeling confident that from now onwards it will be a good long and strong year ahead for my training.

Now I want to look at one other thing fitness. I am very unfit I can lift the heavy weights no problems but if I have to run around the block or cycle for 20-25 minutes I would definitely die so I am now also going to try and get fit I am going to try and include cycling into my program and see what effect it has on my fitness and my gut. I will try and get my new schedule up for you all to see tonight or later today if all goes well

And for today’s tip here’s some nice info on being fit

Being fit means you are overall healthier. You cut down your odds of suffering from a variety of serious conditions, such as heart disease, respiratory disease and even cancer.

Being fit means you have more energy for the things you want to do in your life. That means more energy for having fun with family and friends. It’s having the energy after work to do something more than crash on the couch.

Being fit tends to give confidence. You look good and you probably know it. Other people are likely to notice too. Confident people tend to draw attention even when they aren’t trying to.
Being fit can help you to age more gracefully. It makes it easier to maintain agility, flexibility and strength.

Some days you can feel like it isn’t worth all the trouble to maintain a fitness regimen. It’s hard work and it can be frustrating when you aren’t seeing the results you dreamed of. It can just mean you need to give yourself more time to achieve that goal.
