Thread: Total Noob =)

Hey everyone =)
just a little about me.
im fairly new to all this stuff.. a greenhorn.
your community looks informative and very friendly, i look forward to reading and learning from you all.
im 6 weeks into a 9 week program (my first one).
let me bore you with the details (the weights are what i am current lifting)

1)
BB bent over dead lift ?4x12 (55kg) (think thats what its called?>)
DB one arm row 3x12 (27.5kg)
Lat pull down 3x12 (50kg)
DB bentover flys 2x12 (2x10kg)

Leg press 3x14 (105kg)

Cardio +Abs
Run
50x2 crunches
25x2 swiss ball jack knifes
2x 25 reverse crunches (leg raises)

program
M 1)
T 2) + cardio (run is 20 min @85% max HR)
W rest
T 3) +cardio (run is 25 min at 80%max HR)
F 1)
S 2)
S rest +cardio (run is EASY 30 min)

then monday would start at 3)
tuesday would be 1)
and it rotates through like that and week 9 is a rest (light) week
then the program goes up a notch..
tell me what you think?
ive gone from 93kg to 84 since i started this program and really started to tone up (bulking up is the ultimate goal but rome wasnt built in a day)
ive uploaded a pic of my back just before my program started (will take some full shots soon.. back was all i had (sorry)

anyway sorry if this bored you =)
i look forward to getting to know you all =)

Welcome to eh form mate!

I don't want to de-rail this thread, plenty of people will critique your program.

But I'm interested in the tattoos, what's the story behind them? quite a good variety there.

the pegasus was my first tattoo, just being rebellious, i got it when i was 17...
then came the polarbear, because people think they are cute and cuddly and really they are vicious killing machines.. and i love them as an animal. very strong symboliccaly and physically. ( i am however a little dissapointed that he looks lke he is walking down with his head bowed but im thinking of putting another bear beside him in a much more agressive stance)
the phoenix on my left arm is about re-birth, starting fresh (got it when my first son was born)
the 2 swallows are about travel, but always coming home(an affinity with winged creatures??)
the tribal on my right shoulder.. that was just a bad decision on a spur of the moment thought on a day off in airlie beach qld.. i also have my sons name on my left arm and my partners on my right and also a star with an infinity design on the inside (you cant see them in this pic)
and the bio-mechanical sleeve on my left is to tie everything in. the gap in the shoulder is either going to be filled with a lotus flower or a tree of life, im not sure yet..
once my left sleeve is done im getting my right side done.
and thats the story so far

Hey danniboi welcome to SM matey :)

Welcome to SM. Nice meanings behind your tatts.
