Brian’s Training log

So here I sit with a familiar friend reminding me that Steve changed the workout this week! I actually have muscle soreness. My weight is staying in the same range but strength is going up from workout to workout! I would have to say that Steve Poynter is the PERFECT trainer for me I have a hard time staying on any routine for a long period of time. My body very quickly adapts and then the results are no more. I can add weights to exercises as well as take them away my muscles are as stubborn as me! He changes it up and forces me into muscle confusion! I have a great deal of knowledge on how why exercises plyo’s cardio speed and strength training. Here is my problem I can figure out exactly how to force people’s bodies to do what they want but in the same sense I can’t figure myself out! This is why I picked Steve his prices are extremely resonible but he is totally motivated for the people that he works with! His exuberance is addictive and transfers to your workouts and the table… Anyone that needs help or is shopping for a trainer hit up Steve he is awesome!

So I followed the diet and exercises that were given to me by Steve! I actually found through this week that I am a lot stronger than I gave myself credit for. My Friday nights workout I actually did heavy deadlifts and scored 400 for all eight reps! I haven’t gone that heavy in ten years. Squats the night before I went 315 for eight my last set. Bench thats a whole different animal, I have some serious shoulder damage that I have to overcome and train around. This is the product of a lifetime of playing linebacker- I was the guy that everyone would watch to see me hit them so hard that they got carried off the field. I say that to say this after a lifetime of training and hurling my body as a missile into offensive backs and recievers has taken its toll on my shoulders. So bench and military presses are being done with lets say less than satisfactory weight. This I can live with. I am not here or in the gym to impress anyone but myself and I understand these short comings. I will simply keep plugging away.

Diet has gone fair I have found that my bodyweight actually went up this week! WTF? Apparently I have been underfeeding myself trying to lose the bodyfat. I did see a decrease after two days of rest this weekend. I will continue to plug away this week and eat correctly and see where I end up.

I don’t think I can say enough good things about Steve Poynter. Stevep78 on bodyspace. He is probably the best priced trainer on this web stie and really knows his stuff. Anyone can contact him and start seeing immediate results no matter what your goal! If you are questioning your routine and even if you are going anywhere with your current routine and diet contact him he will definately put you back on the right track!

So I have completed the challenge and training was stagnant. I hit the wall so hard and couldn’t find a way out! A friend told me that I should take a look at maybe a trainer.

I contacted Stevep78 Through his web site and thus far am more than satisfied. His prices are resonable and he is quick to respond even if its just a question!

Did the first workout last night. The reps are far fewer than I am used to- It is a power based workout. Phenomenal workout last night weight were heavy and I actually enjoyed training last night for the first time in about two months. I think that the diet and exercise will actually be beneficial for me because I have someone watching what and how I do in the gym and I am held accountable for the results by my effort put forward and adherence to my diet!
