Hey Talo

How you like Redpoint Fitness?

I noticed your journal on IAs site too, Just wondering how the product shapes up in your opinion? I was thinking of joining up for a month or two mainly to get a good idea of some dieting strategies.

HIThopper's Sig:

There are no shortcuts. The fact that a shortcut is important to you means that you are a pussy. Let me be clear here: if you'd rather take steroids than do your squats heavy and drink enough milk, then you are a Fucking Pussy. I have no time or patience for Fucking Pussies. Please tell everyone you know that I said this.- Mark Rippetoe

It's well worth it. Only $18 / month. The knowledge base that is over there is incredible.
I basically joined for the same reason you said ( diet strategies ) but I think I will stay committed for awhile. It's like having 5 or 6 personal trainers when you need them. I'm on my 4th week and loving it.

June 12

Incline Bench Press 5x5 ( 185 )
- this was a light weight , but I haven't done these in such a long time I wasn't sure where to start.

Flat Bench 5x10 ( 225 )
-harder than I thought

DB shoulder press 3x10 (60's)

Lat Raises 3x12 ( 30's)

Pushdowns 4x10 ( 160 )
-this was the stack, could have gone heavier.

NOTES: Wanted to workout this morning - woke up at 4am and slammed a shake and took some pills. Was at the gym by 4:30 , took awhile to get into it , as I'm use to waking up this early. Finished by 5:30 and at work for 6:30. I think I will continue to workout in the am when I'm on day shift.
Weight at the gym was 103 kg down from 106kg .
