1 Rep Max....

Today we hit the gym for the first time doing strength training and going for our 1 rep max on the decline bench.

I've never had much natural strength but i really enjoyed and I plan to implement this into my routine once every 2 weeks.
So this strength workout was to target chest and build on our bench strength, here's what we did:

After a 5min warm up on the treadmill and some stretches we hit the weight area...

Do You Even Lift...?

Just got back from a late afternoon Gym session and thought I'd share my workout while i have a good rest until teatime.

I'll post my workouts every now and then to give people ideas and different variations for their work outs, gladly accept ideas from readers if they feel they have some good advice that myself and others could benefit from, and feel free to message me if you have any questions and want some advice on anything gym related. I'll help wherever i can.

So today i worked on Chest and Triceps:

Exo-Politics...

So I recorded this back in July 2009 but is still one of my favourite covers. Although being quite a simplistic song, it has an edgy feel to it. Exo-Politics is taken from the album Black Holes and Revelations by Muse...

High Protein...

Well just enough time to do another quick post before work so why not tell everyone what I'm eating for dinner/lunch.
So being a gym goer, I try to eat healthily. And as many people know, Protein is one of the big essentials to include in your diet for muscle growth and repair. So here is a quick and simple meal that is high in protein and healthy....

Seeded wholemeal toast with scramble eggs and lean smoked ham....simple

A Paramore Cover...

So I thought I'd kick off my blog this morning by sharing my most recent Guitar Cover, a quick and easy post while I get ready for work.... Oh the joys for me... The song is called 'Still Into You' by Paramore, one of my favourite bands, and is from their new self titled album that was released earlier this year.

Well here it is....

A New Beginning!

So... I've decided to follow my Girlfriend Claire (The Beauty Of This) into the world of blogging....we'll see how that goes.
