so here it goes guys.. i was so tempted to do my journey for a while but never really did it.. so ill start by some stats and supplements

animal pak, optimum whey, purple wrath, cell mass, uni-liver.

just today i added pump and nitro to my stack.

usually eat 6 meals a day and dont worry that much about my calories like a little anorexic girl..

I major in nutrition in college and i usually end up arguing with my nutrition teacher about my protein intake who strongly protects her "uhhh if only bodybuilders eat normal and drank more water they would get bigger..." lol.

what i eat usually varries alot, whole eggs, steak, peanutbutter, milk, fish, rice, multi-grain bread, multi grain pasta, raisin bran, oats, chicken, tuna, veggies here and there for shits and giggles, hehe..

workout schedule
chest
back
off
shoulders
legs
arms

this schedule ends up gettin changed alot.. haha

yesterday's workout.. suppose to be an off day but couldnt resist so i did some whole body workouts
10 mins warm up eliptical
20 mins punching bag
abs 6 sets
clean and jerk, 4 sets
squats 4 sets

today, shoulders and tris

shoulder press dumbbells 5 sets, hit 70s - 6 reps last set
hammer strength military press 3 sets, burnout....
side lateral raises 4 sets
dips supersetted with push ups 4 sets
wide grip upright rows 3 sets
rear delt machine 3 sets
cable tricep pushdowns supersetted with cable pulldowns..
10 mins punching bag - cardio...

drank my oj with nitro, head home..

i weight around 170 i can see my abs but not that low bf.
bench 205 - 5 reps - or 100s - 3 reps

about that 2nd session, ohh yeah i definetely did overtrain and i know that. i havent done anything that crazy for a while i just wanted to take a leg day trainin to a new height..

guys itsalldelusion is a one of my homeboys, who like to talk shit about every one in our friend circle.. well it goes in circle one week its me one week its someone else.. he gets pleasure out of causing pain to other ppl. and when he sees that his words are so annoying and pissin the person off he just keeps doin it, and this gives him the greatest pleasure..

he was always against me lifting, my lifting habits, my dieting where i showed up with my tub of cottage cheese and all the times that i refused to drink with him.. he got a account on fovrm just so he can talk shit to me.. u can see that all his posts are replies to me and against me.. he is just another guy that tries to break me down but he will not succeed.. he helped me out alot in the past and i have the greatest respect for the man but to this day i still dont understand why he does what he does.. obviously me being an animal bothers the guy as much to the point of makin an account on a respectful site and talkin shit..

now to the good part.. Legs today

smith machine squats 6 sets
leg press 3 sets
lunges 6 sets
stiff legged dead 2 sets

stretch for like 15 mins, abs

doin great, now my 32 inch waist pants dont fit me no more, gonna have to get some 30 inch waist, lol...

weight is the same.. strenght #s are goin up, measurements are gettin better..

i came back to my old town from school which was 3 months ago and alotta ppl that saw me said that i have gotten much bigger and gotten some complements, ppl also told me that i have lost weight too.. which i been the same weight just packin on muscle losing alittle bit of fat..

i would guess my body fat to be around 10-15%..

i can see the 6 pack under, but dont have the seperation in the vertical lines..

since i was workin like a slave dog for the last week i decided to take 3 days off from lifting.. since i was blasting my body with crazy workoouts for teh last 3 months and havent taken any breaks and lately my shoulder was starting to inflame again, and all my tendons and joints are feeling upl.. so up the dosage on the fish oil and take these 3 days off..

tomorrow will do some light cardio run/jog..

wednesday back in the lifting with chest day..

so i just wanted to let u guys know abit of my diet.. it fluctuates alot but the principles are always the same.

raisin bran cereal, with 2% milk
with either 6-7 eggwhites or some whey shake.

peanutbutter jelly, chicken or some kind of protein

before workout, 1/2 scoop purple wraath, 1 scoop xtend.
after, juice with nitro
30 mins later whey, with fast digesting carbs like bread, rice, potatoes
30 mins later a solid mean with chicken or beef, with slow digesting carbs

rest of my meals later in the day consist of just protein and fat,, i can just sit there eat peanut butter all night.. usually bunch of egg whites, chicken, or steak.. sometimes canned tuna

try to get in about 5-6 good meals.. my idea is to keep my carbs around my wokrouts.. before and after workouts so i can get full use of the spikes insulin levels.. i been gettin some good results this way and my workouts are still full of energy..

right now im not takin any fat burners or even takin any caffaine, green tea here and there rarely.. i wonder what would happen if i was to get on cuts..

barischeg
01-13-08, 1:16 pm
lately i been gettin alotta shit thrown at me for the way i live and the way i am.. they call this site and the everything about it commurcialized bullshit, but from the way i look at is that everything else in this world is commurcialized bullshit.. while ppl are driving around quarter million dollar lambos there is ppl on the other side of the globe starving to death.. im not saying that having nice things or spending ur money is a bad thing, but being shit thrown at me for eating couple more extra meals or lifting dedicatedly pisses me the fuck off. i get judged left and right for evey little thing that i do but yet i keep my mouth shut and walk away but this anger they are building up inside fires me up even more and more everyday and one day im just gonna blow up..

i dunno i cant really remember everything but it was good.. i was kinda takin it easy on my back since i did legs the day before and my back was sore from doin squats so i didnt do any deadlifts..

everything comin along good.. diet is solid.. workin hard at my jobs, since my mom owns a bakery i get my eggs and chicken, bread from there and my grocery bill is almost nothing..
i just get me some milk and cereal, hahah.. i been chokin down 12-15 egg whites a day and about 3-4 of them whole.. cut the carbs way down, and cycling them so i still have energy for my workouts and able to lose fat..

also drinkin much more green tea thanks to mom, i just get the tea bags from the bakery too, lol..

the update with the haters, everyone is pissin my off lately, so i just scream and yell, but i dont give a fuck, more incentives to lift even more hardcore..

looks solid
do u get any elbow pain w/ the pullovers?

no but i did for a maybe couple weeks back about 2-3 months ago, but not at the moment. wrappin up, using mineral ice, and icing works good for elbow problems..

im kinda experienced at this point with joint problems and now know how to deal with em effectively.. i iced my shoulder yesterday after workout, there is no pain at all right now soo, today imma go do back after my bio lab which starts about an hour..

i followed mostly joint advice given by big ant...

stay strong mentally during your cut bro

barischeg
02-12-08, 11:23 pm
lol, mentally.. i think that went out the door long time ago..

i dunno what im runnin on but it keeps me goin for some reason that i cant even understand myself. I just keep comin back the next day for some more punishment, it seems as of that i dont care about anything else but i really do. but the more i think about all the fucked up things in this world, it just pushes me away from people. i just dont wanna be around ppl... I just hang out in my little circle of my friends that understand me and except me.. i feel as of that the situation is changing, before they would question and judge my actions but everyone got used to it and now they just accept it and dont worry about it much which is good.

i was ridin the train alot for the last couple days since my car broke down and it kinda made me realize the real shit that we live in.. the routes i have to take goes through the shittiest parts of philadelphia and camden, NJ, those of u from the area now what i mean.. and i just walk in between 30F degree through the crowd of homeless people that gather around the train stations askin for food and money. while i sit here chokin down eggwhites and throwing away the yolks for my selfish goal makes me even more sick for some reason.

Its not really up to me or to anyone to judge others actions or how they spend their money but i know the worth of money.. im not saying this to brag about anything but i been workin since i was 14 and everything that i got right now i worked for. Im not sayin that my life is shitty or anything.. it just fine, i live in a nice apartment in the university city of philadelphia and go to school and always have food which im really thankful for.
But when i come to think of all the people with millions and millions of dollars why r there so many fuckin poor and so many fuckin rich. why cant we all live in harmony and peace where every one is happy but i guess im askin for somethin that will never ever happen. I just keep hopin that maybe one in the future more people will realize my points..

I did really stray away from the subject of lifting and why we do what we do but i just like to come here sometimes and release my thoughts or imma start goin crazy...

like recently i met this nice girl and i been spendin some time with her and i do enjoy hangin out w/ her but i just cant let myself trust anything or anyone and i feel as though im wastin my and her time.. but maybe i just dont know.. i contradict myself probably every other sentence by now.. we ll just see how it goes thursday is valentine's day and i guess ill get her some flowers and choclate or even maybe take her out to eat.. worst case ill get to eat some of her choclate for some cheat meal, haha..

take care guys and stay strong...

02-13-08, 10:52 pm
to add to the lists of problems, today i decided to take it easy on my shoulder and swim.. but hey what the fuck ya know? my elbow starts killin me.. i have a good swim workout, i come back and ice the shit outta of it and wrap it up and now im fine but we ll see how both of them turns out. after all it looks like im gonna have a date this year with the power rack again, haha squats..

elbow is ok.. wrap it up, mineral ice it helps we ll see how it will turn out today..
i ice it everyday so it stays bearable

my numbers on squats are goin up which is really good, but thats due to the creatine.. i love creatine, its real deal, it plain old works for me, nothin fancy just good old creatine and grape juice after workout...

i upped my whole egg intake more. eat about 5-6 whole eggs a day and maybe about 6-7 more egg whites on top of that.. chicken and milk are the staple proteins at this point.. its hard for me to get red meat cuz im broke and i get all my food from my moms bakery/restaurant so all that free eggs and chicken i can eat, which is great and that has to do it...

eating so many eggs i manage to make chandler sick just by tellin him that i eat eggs, lol..

bench 225-5 reps
deads 315-1
squats 225-8 ass the fuckin grasss......i got really good mobility where i can sit down comfortably with the whole weight on me all the way down.. i been squattin like this for a while and im doin pretty good lately with the weight slowly goin up..

i never been that strong but lately i been gettin stronger...which is pretty good..

my weight is right now like 175.. pretty lean..

i dont take any days off right now.. using the m-stak to its fullest effect..

diet looks like 12 whole eggs a day,
all i can eat chicken breasts...

maybe 1lb of steak a day, maybe 1 can of tuna a day.. depends on how i feel,

about 6-7 meals a day, i just go with the feel.

first meal of the day includes my power meal always the same.

whole wheat cereal with 0 sugar, taste like cardboard but fuck it... with whole milk.. with flax seeds and about 3-4 whole eggs, some times mix the milk with some protein to give it some sweatness but i can put up with the dry taste...

rest of the meals of the day consists of proteins and fat.. afterworkout is some grape juice and big meals..

not many supplements.. just m-stak and pak alotta eggs and meat..
