Just finished my 7th week of gym.
To recap I'm doing
this program with some slight modifications.
Results so far:
The biggest one obviously is that I've increased my numbers so there's functional strength gains.
Though it's only been 7 weeks I'm pretty sure I'm seeing some muscle added/toning to some degree mostly in my arms, shoulders, calves and back. Pecs not that visibly different but starting to come in.
I feel great and cherish and look forward to my gym time.
The current numbers (everything is in kg):
(Deadlift on its own above since it rotates with the dumbell rows and I do it on Fridays)
Some general assessment of my current progress rates:
Dumbell row (good but I think it's slowing now)
Bench (I think this is slowing too)
Squat (Still progressing strong and linearly)
Romanian deadlift (Linear still but I think I'll slow and this soon too)
Leg press (Still going strong)
Calf Raises (Still going strong)
Deadlift (Still going strong)
Pullups (Started off not being able to do any. For the first 4 weeks I was training by doing negatives but then I injured my right arm jumping up to the handles so I had to rest for a little bit. Currently training pullups using the assisted pullup machine and progress is much better and easy to measure. When I checked last week I could do 4 pullups unassisted and getting close to 5.)
