Member 6264, 208 posts | Hello, Bit about me, 31 year old untrained male who's spent time mucking around with weightlifting. Best squat 175kg a few years ago. Also a bit of running. Completed a slow 1/2 marathon last year. I'm out of shape, weak and lack consistency. This is my attempt to get healthy/fit/stronger. I have a squat stand and barbell at work. Weekly plan: Squats. Mainly back, some front and try a zercher (never done one) Shoulder press (pb 70kg last year) 2 runs (would like to make one of these a parkrun further down the road) I also have one of those pull up dip bar stations and will add these in when I can/want/not raining too hard. Thanks | ||

Member 6264, 208 posts | Cheers Dannyboy73 they're an awesome band. Another run last night. Still cant get to squat stand (I run a double glazing company and it is buried behind lots of window frames). Will be moved early next week. Hilly woody run 29:09. Proof my slow jog is quicker than fast walk. Also some core and foam rolling. 2burgers w/ cheese (no buns) and lots of salad. | ||

Member 6264, 208 posts | Since my last post I have mainly been doing: running, pull ups, cycling, dips. Youtubed zercher lift and will be doing that tomorrow. Guaranteed pb as long as I do it, so not really guaranteed at all. This will be completed while wearing jeans. | ||
