Haven't posted in a long time, but I figured I would post my training notes weekly to get feedback.
Basic stature including measurements from when I was sized for a tux a few weeks ago(measurements are from memory and may be a little off, but I will update if I find my card with the measuremesnts):
+Age - 17 years old
+Bodyfat(wild guess) ~ 10-12%
+Height ~ 5'9"
+Weight ~ 145lbs
+Waist - 29 inches
+Hips ~ 34 inches
+Chest ~ 36
+Neck - 14.5 inches
+Overarm ~ 45 inches
Equipment I have to work with:
+Iron gym pull up bar
+Xtreme rings

+PVC parallettes
+Wooden blocks(stacked and used for extending ROM in HSPU)
+Weight set(new to me, need to play around with cuban presses and squats)
+Jump rope(great warm up and foot work)
+Elastic bands(pretty worn out)
Nutrition:
Mostly "paleo" with dairy(no conventional milk). I try to eat as clean and natural as possible. I have a hard time finding good clean meats, and I have even considered hunting to get wild game. I eat a lot of eggs, real cheeses, nuts, dark chocolate, beef, bacon, and sardines. I need to eat more veggies and less fruit. I also want to find a way to get raw milk. A big obstacle for me is cooking, but I am making steady progress. I take zinc, magnesium, fish oil, and whey supplements. I spend a good bit of money on food, but it's worth it to me. I eventually want to have a mini farm and produce the majority of my own food.
Training Philosophy:
+Keep things as simple and effective as possible.
+Low reps
+High intensity
+Good form
+Cycle between low volume/high frequency and high volume/low frequency
+Isolation work mainly for therapeutic purposes and to target weak links
+Stay fresh
+Have fun :wink:
