Full-body workout

After much deliberation and advice from the mods from CIA, I have finally changed my workout routine to a full-body workout comprising of only compound exercises. Shit man, I really think that I've wasted so much time and I should've used this routine so long ago. I was afraid of doing all the big lifts and I thought that my legs are usually sore for up to 3-4 days so it's impossible I can work them 4 times a week. Turns out that I'm wrong, the more you work it the less sore it becomes.

After trying out for a week, I think it's really stupid to do body part split without a solid foundation so I'm gonna stick to this routine for another 6 months or touchwood, until my next injury lol. So this is how a typical workout look like:

5 mins inclined-walk warmup
6 x 5 chin-ups supersetted with
3 x 8 of Squat 135lbs
and
3 x 8 of Deadlift 95lbs

3 x 8 Barbell Row 95lbs
3 x 8 Bench Press 115lbs
3 x 8 Military Press 65lbs
10 mins HIIT

Trying to squeeze 10mins HIIT into each session but I'm damn lazy... gonna do on at least 2 of the 4 days starting next week. Sometimes, less is really more.

There's this gay thing I was surfing the CIA forums and they had this website which shows a general guideline on how much you should be lifting for your weight class to determine your level. For e.g. intermediate, advanced blahblah. And I checked my weights against the table and I realised I'm not even anywhere near Untrained! I was so depressed until I found out that I..... did not add the weight of the olympic barbell. Which in any case at least puts me nearer to Untrained. Lol. Well Novice is 3-9 months and I'm just a week into this compound training and I'm not that far off... I think...

I've been eating alot on workout days I think. I don't know if it's correct or healthy but it sure isn't healthy on my wallet. The usual high protein mid carb low fat... protein = meat and meat = $$$. And I have no idea what my current diet is gonna do to my body fat especially since I stopped running as intensively now.

Anyway, if I do ever come close to being where I wanna be then nothing will be more redempted. I shall carry on labouring away for the time being. Gonna increase by 5lbs next week for all. Updates again next week!
