Best of luck with your new routine, Christos! Keep us updated.

Get it, Tom! #PAAMF


Squats (front / wide stance) - extreme focus on slow tempo and depth. Didn't wanna go very heavy or much volume since it's back day and I can't deadlift for crap if I squat heavy right before.

Set 1 - 135x10 (warmup)
Set 2 - 225x5
Set 3 - 225x5
Set 4 - 225x5
Set 5 - 225x5

Deadlift (no chalk)
Set 1 - 135x5 (warmup)
Set 2 - 225x5
Set 3 - 225x5
Set 4 - 315x3
Set 5 - 315x1

Single Arm Dumbell Rows SS w/ Dumbell Hammer Curls
Set 1 - 10reps @ 70 (warmup) SS w/ 25lb dumbells for 10reps
Set 2 - 10reps @ 85 SS w/ 35lb for 10reps
Set 3 - 10reps @ 90 SS w/ 35lb for 10reps
Set 4 - 8reps @ 95 SS w/ 35lb for 8reps
Set 5 - 6reps @ 100 SS w/ 35lb for 5reps

Close Grip Rows - 3x10 @ 200
Wide Grip Rows - 3x10 @ 160
Cable Lat Pulldowns - 3x15 @ 80 (had to go lighter for my elbow's sake)

I've got Group Power (HIIT) tonight ... I'll probably die, sooo ... you've all been great! Best of luck going fwd! LOL

Also, diet update - one week deep into low carb and my body loves it. It always takes me a few weeks before my body starts letting go of weight on this eating routine but I already feel mentally better and my sleep is improving. By week 3 or 4 I'll be dropping some lbs so hopefully I'll have some good weight loss figures to report before too terribly long
