"notes from the site"
- Though this routine looks deceptively simple (the heaviest weights aren't used), believe me, it's not so easy. This routine looks to maximize your pump and your results. Keep your rest period between each to a minimum (no more than 30 seconds). It should produce nice size, shape and overall definition.

the diet
- morning
one egg, a bowl of oats, and protien shake
afternoon
3 packs of bizkits, shake
night
plenty of water, bizkit and oats

the diet
- morning
one egg, a bowl of oats, and protien shake
afternoon
3 packs of bizkits, shake
night
plenty of water, bizkit and oats

training looks solid
diet looks like it needs MAJOR work protein complex carbs good fats every meal-i dont think the biscuits are a good idea
try to eat throughout the day ususally works out to around 6 meals per day
i would try to improve upon that 1 egg at breakfast try to get a few like 2-3 and u could replace the shake w/ egg whites
and drink lots of water during the whole day

u need a solid diet with enough calories to support your intense training yet allow u to drop body fat. u also need anough protein and fats to protect your muscles
with your original diet plan you would have surely lost a lot of muscle and your energy prob wouldnt have been too hot
drop the biscuits-save them for a cheat meal
do cardio in the morning before breakfast if possible
i could give u a diet but eevrybody is diff-what works for me might not work for u
check out the diet section on this site theres a lot of info
also for breakfast have 2 yolks and include maybe like 6-8 egg whites and have some oats with it
protein some carbs and good fats at every meal
good luck
if u have any ?s ill be happy to help

have your cuts in morning then do cardio
when u do cardio on empty stomach like in the morning youll be burning fat easily
just walk on the treadmill at a steady pace start at 30 mins increase over time
or u could do cardio right after weight training
whatever is easier for u

brother, you need to do a search around... at least diet looks pretty much in check now
here's my advice:

-don't train aynthing (except abs and maybe calves) more than once a week, considering you're on a cut, you won't fully recover in 3-4 days
-make yourself a routine, but stick to it, there shouldn't be such a question like 'what should I train today?' because you should have your routine scheduled
-don't do too many sets per muscle group, keep it simple, you don't need 15 sets for your biceps
-keep intensity high, lowering the volume doesn't mean you should sleep in the gym, you can have a great workout in 45 min
-focus more on whole foods to boost your metabolism
-write down some realistic goals, maybe deadlines, and stay motivated

nice to see another newbie gettin goin...
the advice on diet from the guys is CRUCIAL!!!
also, u dont need to do lots of reps just because ur cutting, high rep range is an old myth, its ur diet that matters...
try an 8-12 rep range, with heavier weight, thatll rip u up...

good luck

ok tommorow is the last day of my 2nd week... and im still on it no surrender..

soulspline
12-16-07, 10:17 am
ok 3 weeks have passed... yes i have improved.... but i want to take this to the next level
i have no more beer belly - i also quit on my drinking since i have started my first week
also i have stopped my smoking habits from my day one...
my body haved improved thanks to the cuts.

ok so im impressed... but not quite
ill be changing ng journey a bit:
here goes--
morning
- take animal nitro 30 mins b4 training
- wait abit (3 hours) - take my cuts ( note this is my last week of the cuts cycle)
---- note a question to pizza -- the nitro indicates take on empty stomach--- how the hell do i do this in the morning in my training??? eat breakfast after training?-----

diet----

ok so i cant coup up with your american diet... too expensive... also its quite different here in the philippines so im doing this asian way

morning meal -- 4-5 egg whites w/ oats and 3 banana

12 noon meal -- 1 whole yam and 2 egg whites 2 banana

3 pm meal -- oats or shuffle with banana

6 pm meal -- 3 egg whites and oats

night --- banana shake or apple shake

---- philipino banana ("saba") its different fro your ordinary dole banana there ours have lotsa protien

ok protien shake here is kinda expensive so i might buy or not

plus our body chem and genes are different from you guys.... but im not gonna left behind....

so heres my hardcore training - the real deal, im cutting off my cheat day at saturdays.... no more. ill be building my body so i need good shit in it just like wrath says...
plus personal goal is 17 weeks starting from tommorow -- dec. 17, 07 till the last day of my journey

yes i will also train my abs... but not in it to be a super model..... so heres my training

hey mate. read through your journey and its good to see your enthusiasm hasn't left. One of your best points is that you dont just ask for help and ignore it. you have really taken pizzalamps and others good ideas on board and made them work for you.

Glad to see you are changing your routine up too. Maybe hit those rear delts with 3 sets of 10 for a while? cant hurt. looks like they have been taking it easy ;)

Don't be afraid to eat. as you gain lean muscle mass, your metabolism will speed up very quickly as it takes more to feed muscle than it does fat.

The hardest thing is the consistancy. things will get in your road but when you can look back and say that was a good solid year, then 2 years and so on, then you are an animal.
