Warrior Diet Day 1: 184.2lbs

• Had a good feed last night in preparation for today's fast, but started feeling hungry at 11am.
  I've been trying to drink lots of water and black coffee to help deal with food cravings, although the caffeine has made me extremely alert
  Looking forward to eating tonight!
  
  Workout: Bodyweight Pyramid.
  
  Pull-ups: 1,2,3,4,5,4,3,2,1 (25)
  Squats: 5,10,15,20,25,20,15,10,5 (125)
  Push-ups: 3,6,9,12,15,12,9,6,3 (75)
  Sit-ups: 5,10,15,20,25,20,15,10,5 (125)
  
  Failed too early on situps, so in order to get more volume will adjust slightly. 1 Pull-up = 2 Push-ups = 3 Sit-ups etc which should get me to a higher tier with more pullups/pushups before failing on sit-ups.
  
  Ditching squats as my knees get worked enough with the cardio.

Diet review

• Hate warrior diet, unable to control crazy food eating binge on evening.
  I.F. is more to my liking - just don't have the dicipline for WD.

It looks like you've found your level for at least a few weeks. I'm at about the same place right now, but at your pace you'll likely move ahead. Great work!

[DR03K]

Can't believe I let this slip!
Took up Oylimpic style lifting since my last post, gained reasonable squatting strength, but stacked on the weight! Sitting at just under 200 pounds at this moment, which is at least 20+ pounds since my simplefit days.
Granted some of this is likely muscle, but in general my body fat % has sky rocketed.

Simplefit is definitely better for lean gains.
Anyhow for the 3rd? Time I will be returning back to simplefit on Monday next week (supplemented by a ton of cycling).

Shall post body statistics on Sunday for my benchmark.
Main goal: Body fat % sub 10%.!

Rounds: 01:28, 01:31, 01:44, 01:36, 02:10 - Total: 08:30
Notes: Bit sore from yesterday but have commitments tomorrow so got day 2 in a day early. Really slow reps, full range of motion and pushups done with shoulder width position and elbows close to sides to past horizontal.

Thu 12th Dec 2013: L5D3
Time: 06:32 (+ 00:59 cf. previous, + 01:04 cf. PR) - Level 5 not complete
Notes: Pushed too hard on the pullups, ended up hitting failure and then struggled to complete the rest within a reasonable time. Might need a strategy for pullups...perhaps breaking them down into mini sets with small breaks.
Cardio: I put some angry music on (which reflected my mood) and did 10 minutes of sprint intervals, which ruined me.
