Growth Plateau

It's been more than 4 months in Mexico

My current stats are:
Chest:   108cms
Biceps: 34cms(R),33cms(L)
Thighs: 58cms
waist:    84cms(tight)/89cms(loose) (-6 cm)

My size growth has plateaued. I am not making any size gains.
Even my strength gain is slow. May be my expectations are very high, I am not sure.
I have lost waist size, but not as fast as I did in my first month in Mexico.
I am seeing some definitions in my back, abs and shoulders. For these I do exercises of 3-5 sets with 8+ reps. So I think I should do the same for other body parts as well.

Below are my best weight for at least 5 reps(not counting the bar weight):

Bench Press: 52kgs. (+4)
Pullups: 8 (wide grip) (+4)
Leg press: 254 kgs (+94)

To get out of depression in life, I started going out more. To parties, to trips.
My don't have a strict diet. and I feel that's the reason of all the slow growth.

I will be following the below routine:

Day 1 : Chest,triceps
Day 2 : Running
Day 3 : Back and biceps
Day 4 : Running
Day 5 : Legs, Shoulders,Wrists

I will do around 5 sets for each exercise, one set would be a drop set. 3 sets of 8+ range 1 set of 5 rep.
Each rep will have eccentric overload and contraction at the peak position whenever possible.

I am eager to see my 6 packs abs. I also accept that it's a slow journey. I have to make consistent progress, and I will.

I feel that being in Mexico has given me opportunities for my physical, emotional, social and career growth and I am thankful for that. 

Currently I am in Mexico for past 1 month. Landed here on 19th May


My current stats are:
Chest:   108cms (-4 cm)
Biceps: 34.2cms(R),33cms(L)
Thighs: 58cms
waist:    89cms(tight)/95cms(loose) (-6 cm)

After the previous post, I went through some personal life problems. Couldn't concentrate on fitness and diet properly. After coming to mexico, I decided that I will be very focused and disciplined.
Most of my food is oil less and sugar less(only 1 cup coffee a day during weekdays). I have been going to gym 3-4 times a week.

The gym here is different than the office gym back in India. It's more old school, like the one we see in Arnold's vintage videos.  Even bars here are heavier. So I am starting from base here and slowly building up strength. Below are my best weight for at least 5 reps(not counting the bar weight):

Bench Press: 48kgs.
Pullups: 8
Leg press: 160 kgs
Squats: 30 kgs
Deadlift: 80 kgs

Currently I am following the below routine:
Day 1 : Chest,Back,Shoulders,abs
Day 2 : Legs,Biceps,Arms,Triceps,Wrists

I repeat the above one after the other throughout the week. I try to vary my exercises. I do around 5 sets for each exercise, one set would be a drop set. I am trying to include eccentric overload as much as possible.

I have realized that my form wasn't proper for squats and deadlift. So I went down on weights and focused on correct form.

I have also started doing weighted ab exercises as well as body weight ab exercises (100 reps)

I will get defined abs by 21st July. Will update soon.

A month of 2018 is already over, when I look back, it started with a motivational day. I went for jog, exercised. But as usual, i got lost after few days. Apart from going to gym 2-3 times a week, and doing intermittent fasting, I was pretty inconsistent.

Nothing is working. In fact i am in much worse state that I was last year.

My current stats are:

Chest:   112cms (+3 cm)
Biceps: 34.5cms(R),34cms(L)
Thighs: 60cms
waist:    95cms(tight)/101cms(loose) (+3 cm)

My waist size grew by 3 cms. It's very frustrating. This year in july, it will be 3 years, since I promised myself a six pack abs. Ever since that day I am making efforts, more than my colleagues, but I am still more or less the same fat guy. My strength has increased though.

DeadLift: 128 Kgs.
Bench Press: 68Kgs.
Squats: 88Kgs
Pullups: 6

Today morning(9-02-2018), I went for a jog (1.8 kms in 10:15). I want this day to be the game changing day for me. I will demand consistent hard work from myself, everyday from today onwards. Not focusing on past failures. I have been maintaining a daily tracker for past 1 week. To track where all i spend my time and money. It really helped me to identify the issue in my schedule and helped me to spend time and money wisely.

So to end with, below is the daily plan:

1. Daily work on my startup. (Yes, that's also there, )
2. 24-36 hour fasting once every 2 weeks.
3. Intermittent fasting for the rest of the days(small eating window and big fasting window, eg: 8:16)
4. wake up around 5-5:30
5. Go for Jogging (max 20 minutes, cover more distance every day)
6. Body weight exercises (core exercises) and Suryanamaskar
7. Go to gym in the evening for weight training.(5 days a week)
8. Make a weekly meal plan and stick to it.

Next update, By March 1. I may travel to Mexico for a long term assignment. I want to get my life on track before going there. May the force be with me.
