2021 Workout accountability thread...

[SabreKiller]

Well, since no one else started it I thought I 'd go ahead and get us going for 2021.


Everyone should post their fitness goals for the year and lets remember to keep encouraging everyone to stick to their plan!

I say it every hear, but this year I'm committed to getting there. My goal is to get my nutrition right, get my body fat down below 12% and increase my muscle mass. The other goal is to bench 300 lbs. which I haven't done since I was 40 and I'm 61 now.

The plan for the next 6 weeks is 2 weeks TUT, 2 weeks heavy lifts, 2 weeks of interval training.

Got warmed up n the treadmill, then 3 warmup sets followed by 3 working supersets of 15 reps each. 4 movements today.


Lat pulldown/leg extension/incline situp
Bent over BB row inverse grip/supersquat/calf raise/ab roller
Over hand wide grip lat row/sled leg press/hanging leg riase
Over head lat pull down/prone leg curl/cable rotation


Everybody git u some!

[JTeLarkin08]

I’m in. My goal is to work out 5 days a week for the next 3 months. I am doing the tbh weight loss challenge so I will be counting my macros and eating good as well. Goal is to get back under 200#

I was just about to start this thread but was hoping you would since you stayed the most consistent last year!

I knocked out mine this morning. 25 mins of cardio and some chest and tris. Going to stick with some 16-18hr intermitting fasting and cutting all sweets out of the equation. The holidays killed me this year, like they do most years

[Johnny]

Great thread and will try to chime in when I'm able to. I was 217 lbs this time last year. I'm currently at 187 and was able to maintain my 300lb bench while dropping weight. I feel so much better below 190lbs. I think I'm going to try for 180lbs and try to get 300lbs on the bench. I'm 5'10 and fixing to turn 45. I've been living a workout type lifestyle regularly since 2007 I believe.

Today is my light cardio to get back in the weekly groove...3 miles on treadmill with last mile uphill. I don't take any supplements or on any nutritional program...just basically laying off unhealthy foods but with that said, I would like to lay out a meal plan soon. I don't have time to meal prep so if anyone knows of a good company that does meal prepping (paleo, low carb/high protein or whatever) I'm all ears!

I’ll play this year. Started cycling again.

[Landrover]

I'm in! Also in the TBH weight loss challenge starting at 234 pounds.......ouch. Got married in 1993 at 183 with a 26 inch waist and a 44 inch chest! I am not that aggressive but need to get below 200 while eating right and "moving"! Way to sedentary, the goal is a minimum of 5 miles per day but hopefully hit 10 miles per day of walking or running.........even add bicycle for 90 minutes on days I don't walk or run. Light weights, high reps, ...........no longer need to squat 655 and bench 340..........time for a body remake at 56 years old!!! With David Goggins and you guys in my ear I think I can hit my goals in the next 3 to 6 months. Lets deaux this!!!

[TX03RUBI]

My goal is 215-218 body weight while maintaining strength. Currently at 229-231 depending on what time of day it is. If I can maintain current strength and increase cardio I’ll be happy.

[SabreKiller]

TUT this morning for 15 reps. Warmed up on the treadmill and the bicycle then 3 warmup sets and waaaaay too many working sets! Chest and bicep supersets.

Incline smith machine chest press every setting to flat/preacher curl after every chest press setting/incline situps
Incline smith machine chest press every setting to flat/hammer curl bar after every chest press set/ab roller
Seated wide grip chest press/Arm blaster curls/hanging leg raise
Neutral grip chest press/overhead cable curl

Legs and shoulders tomorrow.

[TXHUNT3R]

Last year I did just over 2000 miles on the bike. This year I would like to take the up to 2500 miles!

With that I will continue my weight lifting and runs 4X a week like I have done for many years, don't want that to suffer either.

Cheers to 2021! Good luck everyone!

[150class]

Knocked out Cardio and core with Back/Bi's also.

My left bicep is still screwed even with the PRP injections 6 months ago which absolutely sucks. Owell. Just need to do more body weight and cardio in replace of the heavy stuff.

[gonzaleziam]

Started the year with the goal of 100 straight days of exercising and avoiding sodas. Exercise will vary daily to avoid burnout. I’m not a soda drinker but 2020 was different.

[Daniel32]

Worked out chest this morning followed by 20 min of cardio. Working lighter weights to get in more reps

Flat bench 4x12
incline bench 4x12
incline fly's (45 degrees) 4x12
incline press (60 degrees) 4x12
cable fly's (lower position) 4x12
cable fly's (high position) 4x12
dumbbell pull over 4x12
pushups 4xfailure

Lol, 340 is what I hit when I weighed 212lbs.

If you ever feel like hitting some iron again, your more than welcome to come on over to throw some around. I have my own gym at the house. You're still a youngin Oscar.

I've been lurking in this thread and haven't posted but am still feeling the effects of my first real leg workout in years...three full days later. Sitting on a toilet was downright scary and stairs are terrifying.

, hope you didn't break the toilet seat.lol

Yesterday was shoulders, triceps and core. I'm always mixing up workouts weekly to keep the body guessing. I am a firm believer in muscle confusion. Today is light cardio and tomorrow is heavy chest day. Nobody really cares about that but throwing it out there. lol Key words - Muscle Confusion

I'd like to know what most here are eating on a weekly basis? I'll will chime in with my 2 cents here in a bit.

Haha I wasn't worried about the toilet seat as much as I was worried about NOT being able to stand back up.

Chest and core teed up for this afternoon. I have two herniated discs in my back so I've committed to working out my core before every workout. My thought is that if I get a "pump", then my core muscles will help stabilize my back.
I'm in ramp up phase right now, so my workouts are pretty short. I've also started doing a flexibility yoga video every day. It's only 20 minutes and I feel like it's already helping my hips and back.

As far as food, I'm counting every calorie I eat using MyFitnessPal. I've set my daily calorie goal based on zero workouts so any workout I do is a bonus. In the past, I feel like I've overestimated my calorie burn and underestimated my calorie intake.

It's amazing how much grazing I did during quarantine. I'm eating a lot more raw vegetables such as cucumbers, carrots, and broccoli. I feel like I can eat more with a lower calorie impact. I'm just making it up as I go but this first week is actually amazing on the scale. Of course my first weigh in was on the heels of a 4-day Vegas trip so there's that.

Been there and done that! That's how you know you've had a good leg day.

My wife has started the Macrostax program so I pretty much gotta eat what's on her program.

[Hagen]

I'll be 56 in a couple weeks. Im 5'8 163. Want to get back down to 150. I started working out on Monday. Plan on working out 5 days a week along with cardio. Years ago i would run 50+ miles a week but the last couple of years i got up to drinking 3-4 cases of Yeungling a week. Bought a case of Miller Lite on Sunday and still on the same case so that's some improvement.

[SabreKiller]

Hit the gym this morning and got it done. Back and tricep TUT supersets. 3 warmup sets and 3 working sets of 15 reps. Taking tomorrow off to head to the lease and try and kill a few pigs and maybe a spike or two.

T-bar row/body weight dips/incline situp
BB row inverse grip/overhead rope extension/hanging leg raise
Tricep pushdown/overhead lat pull/incline leg raise
Seated DB overhead extension/v-bar pulldown

Have a great weekend!

[150class]

Cardio and core this morning! Need to mix in a lot of days like this but weights are way more fun....

Still sticking to 16-18 hr fasting also.

Legs are fried from yesterday which is pitiful considering how little I did and compared to last year at this time.

Just have to keep grinding though.

[150class]

Cardio, chest and tri's this morning. First work out this week that really felt good.

[b.latiolais]

Well I managed two workouts so far this week. Monday was complete upper body.
Bench
Incline DB
Cable Crossover
Lat Pulldown
Seated Cable Rows
Standing Overhead Press

Missed the rest of the week until last night. Last nights workout was a good full body since I hadn't hit legs at all. Also, last nights workout was after 20 hours fasted. I noticed alot more focus on my lifts training fasted. Maybe a little less strength and endurance.
10 minute incline walk to get warmed up.
Squats & Pull-ups
Standing OH Press
Deadlifts
Bent Over BB Rows
Bench Press and i threw in some tricep push downs

48 hour fast will be completed around 9:30 tonight.

[Humper]

My goal is to get below 200. I started at 236 back in the fall and was able to get to 218 right after Xmas. I got tagged by covid on the 28th and have not been able to work out since. I’m probably down to 210 or so after two weeks with covid (not the best weight loss method). I’ll start back at the gym in a few weeks. I usually do 45 minutes of intense exercise 5-6 times a week. I’ll be 62 in a few months and hope to be under 200 by April.

[parkchief100]

This is so awesome! I originally started this thread in 2014 and to think it’s still going strong is a testament to all of you kick a$s tbhers!

I will play again. I am 51 years old with two sons one a personal trainer and power lifter 26 yoa and the other a 19 yoa college football player. That being said, I have always pushed my boys to workout and be their best! My oldest son is now pushing back and wants me to do an all clean powerlifting meet with him and break the State record for bench press. So I guess if my body can hold up I am going to try to press 405 this year on a touch and go and at least 375 competition or more. Here goes to the aching bones!!! Good Luck everyone and keep pounding the gym!

[150class]

Off yesterday


Just killed it this AM. 20 mins skeeter run, back and Bi’s, core and bicep PT, finished with 10 mins of stairs


Legs and shoulders mañana

[.270]

Let's Ride!

[Brazos Hunter]

We purchased P90X a few years ago with every intention of following it but it is too strenuous/intense for my old joints. Instead of tossing it in the recycle bend we decided to offer it here. This program is not for everyone and almost requires some level of fitness prior to being! With that said, if you would like to get in the “best shape of your life” and can do this type of high impact workout, chime in here and the program DVD’s and book are yours.

[SabreKiller]

Second week of TUT with back and leg supersets. Abs thrown in for good measure. 2 warmup sets after getting the blood moving on the treadmill and bicycle.

T-bar row/seated sled press/calf raises/incline situp
Supersquat/wide inverse grip row
Leg extension/v-bar pull down/incline leg raise
Overhead lat pull/bilateral leg press

[quarterback]

Thanks for starting this thread. I'm in again. Like everyone else, I got a little crazy over the holidays food wise and now I feel it. Running works best for me but my upper body needs some serious help. Time to embrace the suck.

[150class]

Legs from hell this AM

Shoulders and cardio manana

[b.latiolais]

Friday was 45 minutes of light cardio on the treadmill. I was still in fasting mode at about 42 hours in.

Saturday was another leg day.
Squats
Straight Leg Deadlifts
Leg Extensions
Leg Curls
Finished it off with 100 calorie burn on bike, another 100 on rowing machine, and then 200 calories on the treadmill.

Tonight is upper body night. My son and I are going to the Upper, Lower, Push, Pull, Legs routine.

[texan4ut]

Going to stay on my Treadmill work 30 minutes and my circuit weight training. 3 sets of 10 per exercise with 30 seconds in between sets. want to lose around 20 pounds and reduce my body fat while building muscle mass. Got to get the Miller Lites under control. Any suggestions on diet would be appreciated.

Go check out the Keto thread. That's the diet I use. Simple and you still eat alot of the foods you like. I'd recommend losing the weight first then focus on building the muscle. But I'm no expert.
