It's about time I setup a log, and I'm going to give it a go and do my best to update it at least a couple times a week. Work's crazy right now, so stay with me here!

I'm a fan of simple programs, and that's good for me right now because I've got limited equipment at home, and on top of that I need to focus on doing a lot of cardio this time round. I've not always been good at 'forcing' myself to do cardio, and so a more complicated program would probably lessen my chance of sticking to it. I'm just one of those guys I guess.
So I'm sticking to a basic push/pull/legs program based on this one.
The only difference is that I'm doing a heavy session - 1A and moderate session - 2A. This is purely because I'm fairly strong and I don't think I could handle two heavy sessions a week without drastically reducing the volume of exercises, or volume of sets. Ultimately I'm a bodybuilder who likes to train for strength as a secondary goal, so go figure lol

Diet has been my weak point recently, I'm eating way to much greasy, high-fat foods. Burgers, burgers, burgers and of course beer. There's no good excuse for it, all I can say is that I've just been unmotivated lately. I need to actually start dieting again. In addition to that I want to drastically reduce my caffeine intake. The last time I quit drinking coffee after mid-morning I lost 4lbs in a month. It seems like this will go a long way toward helping me achieve my goal.
As I said I'm hoping to keep this updated with my progress, some of my workouts will probably get logged in here as well.
Cheers guys,
