"Pick your guts from the floor (c) Goliath by Architects"
Hey everybody!
My name is Katia and I've been around DAREBEE since like 2015. I started my fitness journey here with calisthenics, then got into bodybuilding, powerlifting and eventually olympic weightlifting. I loved oly lifting, and maybe one day I'll get back to it... I miss leg day everyday![Laugh :LOL: :LOL:](/data/assets/smilies/smile8.png)

Stopped going to the gym in 2022 because of my own reasons and built a small home gym — a pull up bar, a (non-olympic) barbell with some plates, adjustable dumbbells, a couple of kettlebells, dip bars and a walking pad. I trained and everything was fine, but then my depression got the best of me, and gradually I stopped training and actually gained around 20kg since January of 2022.

Now, after gaining that weight and losing my motivation, I want to get my comfortable weight and confidence back. I also want to be able to do chin-ups (I could do like 5 in one go, but now my heavy ass doesn't let me!) and full push-ups again.
The goal of this post is accountability and logging in my progress. I came to realization that I do need it. Can't promise I'll post updates everyday, but I am going to try my best.
The training plan for at least next 3 months (starting on December 1st, because you definitely should wait) is the Spartan, as listed here. It seems like what I will enjoy and can manage with my current work and hobbies.
THE TRAINIG PLAN:
0. 30 min walk every day in the morning
1. Full body — Batcave friendly workout (starting with 3 sets)
2. Rest/Casual training — <Totals> program + ZEN program
3. Full body — Baba Yaga workout (starting with 3 sets)
4. Rest/Casual training — <Totals> program + ZEN program
5. Upper body — Goliath workout (starting with 6kg dumbbells and ~48kg for deadlifts)
6. Lower body — Glutes Sculpt workout (starting with 8kg dumbbells but bodyweight for deep side lunges)
7. Rest/Casual training — <Totals> program + ZEN program
On top of that I will be following some challenges.
DECEMBER CHALLENGES:
— Pull up challenge (but with negative chin ups)
— Tricep dips challenge (but with leg supported dips)
JANUARY CHALLENGES:
— Pull up challenge lvl 2 (but still with negative chin ups)
— Tricep dips challenge (but x2 reps of leg supported dips? we'll see)
It's gonna be hard. Eating "clean" and less will be hard. But I know I have it in me to do that. Just have to change my state of mind and actually do things, not just plan them. Wish me luck![Worried :worried: :worried:](/data/assets/smilies/smile15.png)
And here's me doing some oly lifting in 2021. Man. I was strong![Frown :( :(](/data/assets/smilies/smile9.png)
