trust me, 401 is a disaster zone at anytime.
Finally got a chance to train today. Have to go back to Toronto again tonight so won't be able to train again till Sat/Sun (aside from some chin ups and push ups).
In the process of switching my Goodlife membership over to a corporate membership. It's pretty awesome because the corporate membership is a higher level membership so I'll be able to train at any Goodlife. Plus it's cheaper and my fitness subsidy almost covers the whole thing.
Bench Press 135x8 185x3 225x4,3,3
Chinups BWx9,6,4
Dumbbell Laterals 25pl x10 30pl x4 +25pl x2
out here corparate is no different than regular - just 5$ cheaper. Can't wait till Wednesday, trainyards opens finally for me! puts my goodlife to shame, and cheaper
For me it's a big difference. I think it's about 150 less/yr but the corporate is a premium plus membership. Then when I factor in the subsidy it's about $48/yr plus a bit of tax because it's a taxable benefit.Quote:

It probably won't work out because I'll still be doing training in Toronto so weekends I like to see my family as much as I can. If I did compete I'd want to get some decent lifts first ie. 300 bench 500 deadlift. I kind of just like lifting for the sake of lifting. What Federation is it with?Quote:

Looking forward to getting back into a routine again. Hopefully I'll finally have a chance to focus more on flexibility maybe even some cardio.
Deadlift 225x2 315x2 385x2 315x3,3
Machine Hack Squats 140x8 200x8,8
Standing Calf Raise 300x8,7,7
First day training in the morning. Back is trashed from yesterday so I just did some cardio, abs and stretching. Gym in Missisauga is kinda garbage. They have 2 smith machines and 2 half racks but not a single cage. I let them know that they should get one...Not sure what they will think of chalk. Everyone I watched lifting sucked pretty bad.
Regained some confidence in this new gym today. There was a guy wrapping his knees and I thought for sure he's going to use a 2'' ROM with ugly form. Not sure if he had 4 or 5 plates/side but he went below parallel for a few reps. Plus I noticed he was using chalk which means I can too.
Did some military press/push press, flat dumbbell press and some chin ups. Nothing special. I think training in the morning will work out well. Still adjusting to getting up at 6am but it's not too bad.
