Hey there,
The name is Logan.
I'm 19 and after two-three years of keeping my food log in a personal notebook, i want to start training with my journal being public, this way I can receive more feedback and hopefully this will help my overall training.
Anyways,
I competed a month ago in my first PL event, won first place in 181 class, and set state record (for their fed) at 420 deadlift.

Right now I am trying to work out my knee ( got an MRI the friday before last ) and found out I just have excess water in my knee and some inflammation and arthritis. Trying to currently work this out, but it hurts all day, everyday, so i haven't been able to do leg work the last few weeks ( which makes me very angry because i just started my love for front squats, and i MISS deadlifting badlyyyyy.)
So, currently I am doing the following:
Warrior Diet
Exmgtoo's extended routine
Focusing on mobility ( for upper body and lower body)
And trying to be as healthy as possible
All while I cut down fat and increase strength.
THE REASON I AM CUTTING FAT IS TO GET TO THE LOWEST BF I HAVE (basically ever) BEEN AND THEN I WILL BE READY TO START MY FIRST BLAST. The plan is to DC train after I am at a happy bodyfat level.
Currently weighing 179 at 5'9" and I plan to update this thread daily, ( to take place of me keeping a paper journal)
Heading to the gym now. I'll post what happened afterwards
