Well I think its about time I started my an online log. I have been keeping one in a database but I'll start posting online as I have just started a new routine.
Well I decided that I needed to change my conventional 3 day split bodybuilding routine to keep my gains good. Decided to go for the Stronglift 5x5 recommended by dope.
I am starting off on the standard Stronglifts 5x5 for beginners, 3 times per week or every 1 or 2 days with an A and B workout. I changed the barbell rows for dumbell rows as I dont feel comfortable doing them.
Workout A
Squat 5x5
Bench Press 5x5
Dumbell Row 5x5
Dips 5x5
Workout B
Squat 5x5
Overhead Press 5x5
Deadlifts 1x5
Pull-Ups 5x5
Today was my first day proper squatting and I must say I have been missing out! I done workout A and really enjoyed it. Got myself used to the lifts and the weights and felt comfortable throughout.

Went to the gym today. Arrived at 5.20 and apparently the last enty is 5.00. What kind of gym is only open to 6 oclock on a saturday? Do people not work out on a saturday night?
Anyway joining my Uni gym on monday for £35 per year cant complain. Havent had a look around yet but cant imagine the facilities will be anything less than amazing!A Youtube Warrior's Strength Training

Aye thats the Glasgow one, there are two which I can get access to but I think the one you are talking about is the one I would go to as it is on campus like 3 minutes away from where I get my lectures.
Its £35 to join the sports things thats access to clubs, the gym, swimming and lots of facilites such as an even bigger gym not too far away with 5 a side pitches and synthetic and grass pitches. Its amazing value but can't really say I'll use it for more than the gym when I have a bit of time between lectures.
Its open 7am to 22.50 mon-thur, 7am to 21.10 friday and 9am to 17.50 saturday and sunday. Pretty decentLast edited by allan5790; 21-09-2008 at 12:27 AM.

Well today was the first time I had a chance to use the uni gym and I was quite impressed. Its just a shame at how busy it gets, fingers crossed it cools down. Was weird though, no one went near the squatting rack which was great news for me!
Date : 23/09/08
Weight : 84KG
Workout A
Squat - 70KG - 5/5/5/5/5
Bench Press - 65KG - 5/5/5/5/5
Dumbell Rows - 32.5KG - 5/5/5/5/5
Dips - BW - 5/5/5/5/5
Went well, felt I had a little more in me on the dips so I will try a 10kg dumbell and take it from there.
The rows felt pretty easy so I done my bent over rows for the 4th and 5th set back to back, ie. right arm- 32.5kg x5 straight onto left and back to right and left again.A Youtube Warrior's Strength Training
