first day back to the gym
 
went back today, mixxed emotions..

i didnt lose any strength i noticed so far, i worked out with what i did before and did the same reps and have not been in the gym since july... i didnt really work out long before only like 2.5months but i had decent gains in what i could lift in that time..

and i lost 10lbs since i stopped going to the gym, i went from 175 to 185 last time i was going and today i weighed 174. so i got smaller but seem to be able to lift the same..

i know im gonna be sore tomorrow though. not looking forward to that...hopefully ill stick with it a lil longer than a few months like last time..

You're just a kid, so you can take a few months off and not lose so much :)

When you're an old man it seems like it's harder to do that.

How are you training John? Are you doing a standard split, with certain body parts on each day? What are your goals??

yeah i go about 4-5 times a week and do a different part everyday... i dont go for all that long, usually do about 10-15mins of cardio then start lifting from there..
monday-chest
tuesday-shoulders/back
wednesday-arms/traps/stomach
thursday-legs/cardio/stomach
if i skip a day in the week then i make it up on friday and sometimes ill go do something again if i feel i didnt work out hard enough that week..

You have a car to get ready anyhow, its probably better this way. I just remember how jacked you were when you moved 225 finally, just thought you might have stuck with it is all.
