today's workout can be called an accesory day cause it targets the arms calves and abs except for the deadlift which is supposed to be the anabolic enhancer any way am stuffing my face right now with a shitload of carbs and protien and am hitting the sack for about an hour

dyskee

5 pounds is decent
persoanlly i wouldnt train to failure on every set every workout-take it slow and the gains will come
hows ya diet been?

dyskee
11-13-07, 3:26 pm
well my diet has changed recently am trying to add more meat than chicken and am feeling its impact on my whole system and on the protein shake i have been doubling the dose cause i feel its better for recovery and am drinking it in whole milk its more better. cause lately i have found am not coping with the workouts recovery wise.

so today t i upped my deads by 30 lbs also my hammer curls and concentration curls by 5 lb each it was nice feeling a tight back. and i am having a question that is really intriguing i use an overhand grip on deads while my friend uses a mixed grip does it differ??

hey on the deads-its really a matter of choice on which grips to employ
i like to pull overhand w/ straps cause ive always been scared of ripping or pulling a bicep with underhand grip i also feel it more evenly in my back w/ an overhand

snack; shake
lunch: rice / pasta , chickhen/meat, broccoli or other steamed veggies
snack: shake and bananas
preworkout: peanut butter and jelly sandwich on whole wheat bread
postworkout: shake
dinner: pasta and protein source or sometimes 6-8 eggs omlette with cheese and and whole wheat bread

diet looks good
i would watch the peanut butter sandwich before training-i seem to remember hearing having fats before a workout slows the release of growth hormone-i know the surge reccomends it but i always did lean protein(ie egg whites or whey) with oats or a good complex carbs

i will log here the last numbers of most compounds we measure in kg in egypt so i'll have to convert to pounds so there will be some quite odd numbers.

squats 100 X 12 reps
stiff deads 135 X 12 reps
bench press 165 X 10 reps
incline dumbell press each hand 55 X 10 reps
pulldowns 14 plates X 12 reps
bent over rows 135 X 10 reps
dumbell presses each hand 45 X 10 reps
deads 180 X 15 reps

i guess i need to work on squats and bench , what do u think?

im glad u like the shake-simple and effective

weight is an individual thing
if u felt the muscle working, and u were able to use good form, and it was an improvemnt from last time, then its a good weight

intensity is what we want bro!! and i know u have it!

Just read your entire thread! So did you give up on the bulk?

You started at 154 lbs? What did you end at?

I notice you mentioned, your starting Rowing training..? Wouldn't the increase mass help power-wise. I've never rowed but Im guessing it might.

Was good to read, just make sure you are shoving buck loads of food - no jokes. And I personally tend to ignore fat levels whilst on a bulk, you can get rid of the fat etc. if you were to cut.

Good luck with rowing training bro and continue to lift. You had some nice numbers.

Stay Focused, LeeMc

WATER..DRINK LOTS OF IT. MAKES YOU FULLER, especially with creatine and keeps those muscles hydrated.

thnx for the support bro iam now 170 with a low bf last time measured was 11.8 , rowing will increase power , capillary density and cardiovascular endurance also i will be shoving food down as i start, but now i have some big fat accumulated on my thighs which is causing me some mobility problems :D so thats why iam trying to get rid of them also iam trying to enhance my cardio vascular health so i can endure the greulling workouts iam about to face from 6am to 8:30 am daily

did my usual bodyweight work. but i thunk iam overtraining signs were obvious today so starting tomorow i'll be doing my old atlas course again and if u don't know what it is , its simply bodyweight stuff with isometrics and so and i'll keep my cardio as usual as for the weights i'll hit them up once a week and i'll work my shoulders only as they are my weakest bodypart and will do deads for back. i know i have been changing alot lately but iam trying to figure out the best thing i can do for my body :D

woke up 5 am today, cold and windy wore my shorts sweatshirt and jacket and went to the rowing club i was with my friends so we started warming up we jogged a mile and then did 40 pullups 30 pushups and 120 situps. then the coach came and he told some people to work on the concept 2 rowing machine then he turned to me and asked me if i had experience wth lifting weights i answered proudly and told him that iam a bodybuilder he told me ok u're weight training with us today. he devided us into 3 groups so the only rest i get is the time that the groups are using the barbells. he made us do 3 drills , drill#1 barbell squats (50 lbs) 8 sets of 40 reps supersetted with 8sets of 40 reps of situps. drill #2 a deadlift and a power clean mixed movement 8 sets 30 reps super setted with deep knee bends with a jump. drill #3 barbell rows 8X40 supersetted with polumetrics 8x40. training ended 9:30 am and started 6:00 am. also while training in the cold open air it rained on us and he kept us working out in the outside. know am sitting in pain :D everywhere but am gonna continue cause pain is weakness leaving the body and iam strong but i just need the edge in motivation and support which i find here.

today was the first day of school after the mid year vacation, so ihad to finish training by 7:30 to shower and get ready and be 8:10 at school. so i started at 6 by running 2 miles then doing 45 mins of bodyweight work non stop it was very very hard and left me extremely sore i was on the verge of puking twice then he put me on the rowing machine for the remaining 45 mins. took a shower and the water was ice cold :D then sipped a whey protien drink 2 scoops in skimmed milk until i got to school then after the first period slammed down 2 sandwiches and resumed my day.

right now iam having a burning passion to go to the gym so i'll have a talk with the coach and see if its possible - due to time constraints as i go to school every day except tuesday, friday and saturday- that i could go to the gym and not weight lift with them , do u think its a sound idea or the beggining of over training???

i take it back after what happened today :D ran 2 km then did bodyweight work as usual then the coach made me do a circuit workout for 5 circuits in that order (barbell rows 30 reps - horizontal leg press 30 reps - barbell bench press 30 reps - hanging back extensions 30 reps- crunches 30 reps) all back to back no rest between excercises , 30 seconds rest between each circuit. after that i did 30 mins on the rowing machine

today ran 2 km and then 6km at night on the treadmill, did my bodyweights work and added some v chinups and some dips then did high rep drop sets of behind back barbell press and fron barbell press then some cable laterals to faliure.
then did pulldowns to the front and to the back high reps too. finally i did forearms did super 12 superstets of decline wrist curls with standing reverse wrist curls high reps. the lactic acid burn was unbelievable, but it was benefecial because my weakest links in the boat are always my forearms and my shoulders they give up quickly so i'll be focusing on them.

today ran a fiver then did boduweight stuff then 30 mins HIT on the ergometer.
now as a solution for my low weight i started doubling the amount of food in my same meals for instance 2 cups of oatmeal instead of 1 , big bowl of rice instead of a small one every week i will be doubling 2 meals at a time so that the influx of calories is used fine.

rob actually yes its very sternous u know requires alot of energy.

pizza am just freaking out because i just can't cope with it :D

today was a new way of training we ran 2km did bodyweight work then heavy lifting.
yes u heard it right heavy lifting we warmed up by 30 reps and every 20lbs increased 10 reps were decresed until we reached singles both on the barbell rows and horizontal legpresses.
i couldn't belive my numbers on the barbell rows i got 225 X1 and don't forget that this is chest supported so i have no momentum to use and on the leg press i got 270X1 which was very good for me

later i had a chicken breast and some pasta,slept woke up to go to the gym had some irritating fastpaced heart beats - don't know why and i was getting worried- then i said that i'll go to the gym because if i kept postponing it it wasn't going to happen i went there and got the job done back home drank my favourite alltime weight gainer

man , arrogance is sure man's worst enemy.
since iam in exams i can't cope with 5 days a week of lifting for an hour and 30 mins cardio and another 30 mins walk home which totals to 2 hours it takes alot of my study time.

so i decided to go with a 4 days per week system 3 of which are in the gym and one can be at home and they take 20 mins to complete at most.

so i started today from the book intense by nature for ray burton.

the routine was quite simple
squat cleans , chest dips , pullups done in a circuit fashion performed for 15, 12,9 reps.

i thought to myself wow what a peace of cake after the first round i went deaf seriously couldn't hear anything , hardly finished the second round and felt nauseas , after finishing the third round i could barely move a limb and i was shaking.

squats cleans finished all the specified reps , dips finished the sepecified reps for the first round done 8 for the second and 6 for the third.
pullups got 6,6,6.

i have done a mistake i should have taken a 2 minute break between each round but i didn't.

ran for a while and called it a day.

why havent I been here before? your wo's are crazy and I love them. I am about to go back and review your style here...great stuff!

as for beans..I eat them all the time, hot and cold. I go with organic garbanzo, black beans, pinto (not refried), soybeans. I like preparing dried beans myself as well, not only packaged or canned types. I never buy any that are loaded with sugar or preservative crap...just beans.

couldn't go to the gym today either so i hit at home, this piece is really hardcore.

Grab a stopwatch and set it at a one minute countdown. You are going to go for twenty minutes straight. Every minute, one the minute you are going to do:
• 5 chin-ups with a towel not a bar. Loop the towel over the bar and hold onto that. One hand on each end.
• 10 pushups
• 15 bodyweight squats (atg)

ok couldn't do more than 11 , but i have been awake since yesterday studying chemistry and iam really tired probably will stay awake for dawn today studying physics. tomorrow's my last exam then i'll be free.

Toni69
05-21-08, 6:13 pm
ohhh..chemistry is rough. I took that back in the day...way back, LOL. Then of course I didnt punish myself enough with that class, I went on to physics! LOL

Good luck on your exam..I have a math exam this wkd..I hate math of all things! Unless its a discounted pricetag on some designer apparal, I cant do any math in my head without feeling like Im gonna explode with total confusion. LOL

I like the idea of this wo you listed here. I would do stuff like that when I was away from a gym or on holiday. I cant ever NOT train, have to do something! Its in my blood! Even when I went to Hawaii this past month, I didnt lift, but I still hit cardio/abs, pushups...to get it out of my system, for the time being.

Good stuff!

ran 4 km then did some bodyweights warmups squats crunches pushups and thickbar pullups. then right into the water gone in a 4 boat with a dude i don't know a german guy and his wife. i thought the boat would be crappy since there's a guy with his wife and that other new dude . the new dude was the stroker the german was second his wife third and i was fourth. 500 meters in the water and i started to notice that the german guy and his german wife had better fitness ,endurance and cardiovascular ability than me and they were so damn fast i barely caught up with them but it was fun. went 6km in the water.

then ate and slept.

well woke up fine today no soreness. went did some bodyweight squats and then went with four of my buddies in a quatre boat but it was a sweep not a skull. a sweep boat is a boat where each rowere has only one oar i had my oar on the right and the one behind me has it on his left and so it goes. i like this boat morwe than the skulls because u don't need to concentrate on your style and cause all you need is absolute raw power. it was amazing we were moving so quick that we took the 6 km in like 30 mins . but my hammies were fried. i'll post some rowing pics
