Art, sport and madness with Kalle Ylitalo
Here is the first post ill be sending here. I will continue keeping my training log in finnish also, but this will be my mainly training-related blog.
I am an 30 year old actor, bouncer, traveling man, powersportsman and martial artist wannabe. Some accomplishments sportswise include 2 WPC bronze medals in bench press, 110kg and 125kg open class. Best results are 320 at 125 and 305 at 110. I have also won some smaller BJJ tournaments in Finland and the Finnish nationals in bench press. Other sports I have competed also, including Highland Games, submission wrestling and RAW powerlifting.
Current bodyweight 109-112kg (240-247 pounds) height 183cm (6 feet even). Maybe leaning out a bit for the BJJ and other martial arts, but not under 105kg (230 pounds).
As a christmas present to myself I decided to train bodybuilding-wise the whole holiday week. That ended up being 4 BJJ training, wiht and without gi 2 sessions each, and 5 bodybuilding style training sessions.
The one left out from my diary looked like this:
warm-up 15 minutes
