Me too, I dont listen to Gucci Mane or Waka, but in the gymthese trap nikkas took over my workout soundtrack
Feeling groggy, stuffed up, and tired. Recent cold front and allergies must've gotten me. Don't matter. Still won't stop me. I'm bout to eat breakfast and head out. I'm gonna knock out this workout or die on the bench trying. I see no other way.

So my cousin wants to go to the gym with me.
Someone whip up some quick ab, arms and leg workouts for an 18 year old girl.
Have her do your workout, just have her use lighter weights.
This weekend was 
Elbow was bothering me so I skipped my upper body workout, was sleep deprived so I had to ditch my lower body workout Might have to start fukking with caffeine for leg days, I just don't have the energy 
I have built like 3 different versions of a home leg press though, I know which one I need now though. I love squats and really wanted to hit 3x10x315 but I might have to bush squats at home for right now

I gotta get in the habit of doing cardio on Sundays again. Every Sat. is back and chest and between all the rack pulling, deadlifting, benching, etc. I'm lowkey taxed and highkey lazy the following morning. This weekend was good. Pulled 550 on the rack pull and did 405 for a few reps. Not gonna do 435 again for a few more weeks.
Need to sleep.
Not gonna train tonight. Gotta sleep good then go into tomorrow to do legs and chest right. Might add stiff legs...or just do more volume on the leg curl.

I hardly train my arms anymore beyond some cables and dumbells once a week. Composition will bring out the definition...trynna get the vein from my neck down through my delt/bicep/forearm showing again.
I need to fukking sleep more than 5 a night. Biggest issue.

Killed my 5x5 today. 35 lbs was easy of course. Did some shoulder presses, Arnold presses, and elevated pushups along with some ab work too. Gonna get harder soon cuz my gym only has five pounds and not 2.5lbs, so I'm gonna be going up ten pounds each time instead of 5. I think I'll be good for now atleast until I hit 165 and then who knows from there. Maybe I'll have built enough strength to be able to bench beyond my bodyweight plus more. Even if I don't hit each set in as quick a recovery time or struggle, I'll try until I reach max. If I can reach 205 while still weighing less than 175, I'll be happy.

Tip: Keep Lifting Heavy When Dieting
Some people ditch the heavy weights and do tons of light reps when in a fat loss phase. That's a mistake. Here's why.
by Christian Thibaudeau
The number one priority when trying to lose fat should be keeping muscle. Losing muscle mass should not be acceptable. Doing so will make it harder to continue losing fat since muscle tissue is metabolically responsible for most of the fat you'll lose.
Then there's the issue of insulin sensitivity. If you have more muscle, your insulin sensitivity will be slanted more towards accruing muscle mass. A larger muscle has more insulin receptors, which makes the muscles more insulin sensitive.
Maintaining or even gaining strength is the absolute best way to make sure that you're not losing muscle. If you keep pushing big weights, it'll force the body to keep its muscle since it will see it as necessary for survival. If you reduce the amount of weight you're lifting, the body will "assume" that you don't require as much strength and that it's okay to lower your muscle mass. Why? Because muscle uses a ton of calories every day and the body will see it as expendable.
You Can't Get a Muscle More "Cut"
Sometimes people will greatly increase reps in a fat loss phase to "cut up" a muscle. Too bad that's impossible to do. You can only make a muscle bigger or smaller. To get more "cut" you need to get rid of the fat while keeping the muscle large and full.
Some people aren't stupid enough to think that lifting lighter weights for more reps works, but they still perform higher reps simply to burn more calories and accelerate fat loss. That's fine, provided that you did your heavy lifting already. However, if you overdo the reps, you can indirectly decrease your muscle mass by impairing recovery.
When your caloric intake is reduced, your capacity to recover from training is already handicapped, so adding the burden of increased volume can lead to regression in both performance and muscle size. Do everything in your power to at least maintain your strength when dieting down. This will not happen if you stop lifting heavy.
