Sweet. I hope I get there sometime soon.

I'm sure! your legs look like they could do it easily

crunches 60
barbell bench press 27x5x2; 37x5x2 43x5x2 next time I'll add another kilo
squats 27x8x2 37x5x2 phewwww.....
barbell bent over row 17x5x4 27x5x2 32x5x2 pheewww!
pullups 3 no strength left
stretching

time for a shake

hey

thanks! at the moment I use soy protein from pro-sana (vanilla). the taste isn't the best, so I might try your brand as soon as my powder is used up.

edit: not bad, the stuff is quite cheap I'll give it a try!

thanks, I think I've had them before. they're a bit expensive, though but as long as you don't miss meals on a regular basis it should be okay

crunches 60

barbell military press: 17x5x2, 22x5x2, 29,5x5x2 30,5x5x1 (next time 30,5x5x2 instead of 29,5) great! the last rep was a battle of at least 10 seconds, though

deadlifts: 30,5x8x2 68x5x2 I don't think I'll increase the weight in the near future, scared of hurting my back ...

pull-ups 3+2+2+2+1

some bizep- and hammercurls

stretching

crunches 60
barbell bench press 27x5x2; 37x5x2 44x5x2
squats 27x8x2 37x5x2 exhausting
barbell bent over row 17x5x4 32x5x2
pullups 2+1
stretching

except for the pullups - nice workout

crunches 60
barbell military press: 17x5x2, 22x5x2, 32x5x2 very bad form :/
deadlifts: 32x8x2 68x5x1 sucked I should give me legs some free days...
some bizep- and hammercurls
stretching

all in all, quite a bad workout

My sister, a personal fitness trainer, said the lower body (legs mostly) need 4 days of rest and upper body needs 2 days of rest after a great workout.

I don't know what other professionals think about this - but it works for me!

4 days? that's a lot! but on the other hand that would explain that my legs are sore 7 days a week

crunches 60
barbell bench press 27x5x2; 37x5x2 44x5x2 more weight next time
squats 27x8x2 37x5x2 hell on earth!
barbell bent over row 17x5x4 32x5x2 tough

I'll have some days off during the next week when I'm at home. which means only situps and some push-ups.

I just read this yesterday (I don't know if it is just for women, or applies to both men and women)

From Dr. Nick (www.drnickevans.com) in an article from Oxygen magazine (women's fitness) re OVERTRAINING. If you answer yes to more than half of the following question, you are overtraining and need to give your body a week of complete rest. To avoid overtraining, keep your workouts to less than an hour and be sure to allow adequate recovery periods in your workout schedule.
1. Do you constantly feel tired?
2. Do your workouts lack energy?
3. Are you lacking motivation?
4. Have you lost strength?
5. Have you lost muscle size?
6. Are your muscles always tender?
7. Has your appetitie decreased?
8. Do you have trouble sleeping?

hey thanks!
I don't suffer from many of these problems - only the sore muscles.
most probably my body just needs to get used to being tortured more often
