Terrible day yesterday
- softball games went late Tuesday night, didn't get in/settled until after 12
- slept horribly; woke up every 90minutes all night
- appetite was horrendous all day yesterday
- felt 'out of it' all day yesterday
- due to a meeting and considering it took me nearly 30min to put down my meal, I decided to drive home to TRF for both a change of pace and to allow digestion time
- usual bullshit traffic + Memorial Day Weekend @ the Jersey Shore = i'll kill people
- felt good hitting that 250x10, but then realized I did a SOLID tweak on my right shoulder. Shit hurts to even raise up my arm right now. Terrific. Taking it day-to-day and see how it all goes down. No way I'll be able to Military Press tomorrow, so we'll see.

Maybe you got an impingement somewhere on your upper body.
Foam rolling or use one of your softballs to break up those adhesions bro. You can do it even while you are at home chilling.

Keep your fuckin head up, and pull yourself together.

I wanted to do this last night, but totally forget. Went to be early. I was feeling totally run down. The extra sleep paid off. I feel great. Shoulder isn't as bad as it was yesterday, so that's a good thing. Still tender, but much more range of motion and much less pain. Gonna try that softball trick tonight.


250x10 Nice bro!

Thanks man. I wanted more, but it just didn't 'feel right' on that bench. I guess that's what happens when you switch environments.

- had a nice carb load post-leg training and went to bed early. After 2 days of feeling like complete asshole, I'm feeling great. Since my shoulder is still tweaked pretty good, I will forgo military presses tonight and rock deadlifts instead. I'll see how everything feels with that and take it step by step. I should be fine. Might have to hit the Military Press '5' next week while I hit the '3's' with everything else. No worries.

Started dieting at 212lbs, 5 weeks ago. I weighed in at 205lbs today. Coming down nice and slow. Feeling good.

Good to hear you're on your way to bouncing back bro. Shoulder tweaks suck absolute shit. Mine used to come back to haunt me every once in a while. Rest usually does the trick. With this split i do now i hardly ever feel it now with the extra day of rest and all. Hope you get to 100% soon bro.

[C.Coronato]

Lock your windows, close the doors .....



I'm sticking with the diet, tweaking it a bit more and more as time goes on. I'm going to run a 2nd can of Cuts, which starts tomorrow. Another 3 weeks of dieting down. I had great progress with the Cuts+diet, without the implementation of cardio, aside from a brief 2mile run 3-4x/week. For the final 3 weeks, I'm going to add in post-WO cardio 4x/week for 30minutes to add in that extra push. We'll see what happens. Then my friend ... then the fun begins.

THEN, i meet you for some 99 beer club and burgers on sundays? (cheat days)

After reworking my bench press, I have been feeling great on that exercise. This past attempt was a fluke. Different gym, different mood, not feeling 100%, etc. It all played a part in the tweaking of the shoulder. Good news is that it feels a lot better in just one day, so hopefully it will be OK over the weekend. Bench time might be able to commence on Monday ...

It sounds weird but i totally agree on the different gym part. Some guys talk about it being superstitious or some shit but it does have an effect on your gym regimen. It took me a while with the ABC's to get used to going to different gyms. I didn't feel comfortable for a while and didn't get the best out of it until like my 3rd one. But having the "home-ice" advantage definitely goes a long way.

Hey A, hows that shoulder? definitely get some foam rollin goin or some light massage to loosen up those muscles. everything looks solid though, 5/3/1 = more n more weight, and you are leaning up at the sametime, nice results, this hardwork stuff pays off!

But having the "home-ice" advantage definitely goes a long way.

Yeah ABCs are a great time, but its hard to get a 'typical' workout in, as you're busy conversing with everyone and using different equipment. Having a 'decent' workout instead of a 'great' one is something that I can deal with when doing to ABCs, for sure.

Toms River Fitness used to be, and I thought still WAS a 'home-ice' situation. When I went on the regular, it was always around 8pm when the crowds were gone and the 'heavy players' were in attendance. Last week I popped in at 6pm, when it was jam packed with the typical 9-5'ers. I'll be hitting it up again tonight as well, as I have an appointment down there around 6. So I'll be hitting it at the 'good' time. Rock on.

Always a good time, haha.

Nothing special. Still running low-carbs, using them only when necessary.

meal 3; 8oz beef, 4oz broccoli
meal 4; 8oz chicken, 5oz sweet potato

Yup. The 5/3/1 while dieting down was going well. This final wave, due to the heavier weight and dieting has been a bit rough, but ya gotta keep truckin'. Shoulder is feeling much better, but it's slightly tweaked. Taking it day by day.

- b/c of the shoulder tweak from last week, I took it real slow last night. I warmed up thoroughly, doing abs first to get a sweat and even wearing a long sleeve thermal to stay warm. Hit extra warm ups and did each rep of each set real slow, with a brief pause at the bottom. Hit 265 for 4 VERY EASY reps, but didn't want to push it. I just wanted to hit the target reps. Shoulder doesn't feel better, nor does it feel worse; pretty much the same as it did preWO, so I'm happy. Was it smart to hit chest again after the tweak last week? Probably not. But I never said I was a smart man, haha.

I've been around the block too many times to not know when to back off. In all seriousness, I should have backed off another week. I went in there with the intention to test the waters with light weight and everything seemed OK. No significant pains. I took it easy, hit the reps and finished strong. niCe. Squats tonight. No excuses here. Ain't no shoulder injury stopping me from sinking down into the hole. Bring it.

Eh, I was hoping for more. The dieting is finally starting to catch up with my in terms of strength. I was only 'bulking' for the first wave of the 5/3/1. As I diet down, I'm still gaining some strength, but I can only imagine the damage I can do with this program once I'm full blown bulking again.

*went light again due to the shoulder. Shoulder injuries blow, as they hinder pretty much all upper body exercises. Went light on the barbell presses just to feel it out. A little tightness post-set, but all in all, not too bad. I think I'll give it a full week's break from pressing next week to allow it to fully heal. Can't press my luck too much

*NG hinted at this new Diesel Gym, so I had to hit it up. Another diamond in the rough. A small, no nonsense gym where the main dude rocks a 'Shut Up and Train' shirt. niCe. Gonna hit this place up more often, for sure. Its got all the necessary equipment .. if you're a 'no frills' kinda guy ;-)

Today is a carb load/refeed day. Rejoice. After 5 days of barely any carbs, I'm feeling drained, tired, and weak. I'll be heavily occupied this weekend, so eating heaps of carbs won't be possible. So today, I'll reload. During these loads, I keep it clean, but its not 'contest prep' clean. Last night I took a gander in the fridge and found some delightful leftovers that I scooped up. I can't wait to eat ..

meal 1; 10oz egg whites, 1c oats, bowl of mixed fruit
meal 2; 8oz chicken, 1c rice (some light yellow-ish color), 4oz broccoli
meal 3; 8oz red meat, 3 pierogis, baked beans (god bless MDW BBQ's)
meal 4; 8oz chicken, 1c rice
- preWO: shock therapy + EAA Nitro
- postWO: Torrent
meal 5; -TBD-

Meal 3 will be glorious. Seven weeks into the diet, I'm down 8lbs (212 --> 204). I'm right where I want to be. Slow and steady. Looking lean. Compliments of my face appearing leaner came about last night. Real-world results. One more week and then its grow-time.

Slowly making progress. Another week left and its big-nasty time.

Hell yeah they are, haha. Yeah coming down nice and slow is what I wanted to do, and its going just fine. Strength is dipping a bit in this last 5/3/1 wave, but that's to be expected. When hitting a normal training routine, you don't notice it as much, but when you're trying to hit new PRs everyday, it becomes more evident. As long as I'm still hitting my minimal numbers, its progress in my book.


Solid progress as expected, hard work pays off.

Yup. Can't sit here and bitch if I'm not putting in the wrench-time. I have no sympathy for those who say 'I don't see any results'. Well, you're fucking up somewhere. Just be consistent and do what you do; it works.


Great work -- It's funny when someone hasn't seen you in a while during a cut -- my housemate came home after two weeks away and was actually startled at my appearance.

Yup. I hear that, my man. Seeing yourself in the mirror on a daily basis is one thing. Someone else seeing you after a little bit of time in between is another. Glad to hear you're making legit progress as well, FD.

Thanks bud. This week is the big week .. 420x1+. Bring the rain.

[Aggression]

* Today should be chestx1+. However I am going to forgo any type of pressing this week. I benched the x3 last week for 4 reps and felt OK, and then tried light weight BB presses for shoulders on Thursday. Although it didn't get any worse, it didn't get any better either. The shoulder feels MUCH better today, so instead of pressing my luck, I'm going to hit some flies and maybe DB pullovers to flush some blood in there. Next week, depending on my status, I'll hit the 'x1' week for bench.
* I'll only be doing the squats and deadlift portion of the 5/3/1, for reasons mentioned above. For the rest of the week, I'll slowly be bringing myself back into the high volume training. I'll run some light chest and then biceps tonight. Tomorrow; squats x1. Wednesday will be some triceps and light raises for shoulders. Friday; deadlifts. Next week will be a deload/reintroduction to high-volume. June 21 will start high volume training again.
*This is my final week of Cuts. Its been 5+ weeks right now. I'm down ~9lbs; perfect. Looking lean, vascular, feeling good. Next week I'll outline my new diet, which will be very similar to what it is now while adding a larger amount of carbs. I have a few things in mind to really jack up the muscle building process. Even though this 8 week diet wasn't a 'contest diet', it still served its purpose and there will definitely be a slight 'rebound effect' that I plan on taking FULL advantage of.

[LayzieBone085]

Everything is good, my man. Been extremely busy lately. Had to travel both Saturday/Sunday for something that went 9-5 both days, so I'm basically commuting/working 12 straight days. I can't wait for this weekend. Other than that, I'm just slowly getting back into high volume training. Did a bit last night and it felt great.

I've thought about it. Apollon and World's; only a 2 mile difference between the two when leaving my office. My membership at Apollon ends this week. I've talked to Enforcer about hitting up World's for a month to see how it is. But I'm really loving Apollon right now. We'll see what happens. I'll definitely be hitting up World's for a session or two to change things up, but I think Apollon will remain 'home' for now.


Awesome session!!! Always great to see someone throw in Spider Curls!!!

Yeah I heard/saw/read someone mention it. I've done them before and then saw someone doing them that night, so I decided to throw those in. niCe.

Name the time and place, my man. I'm ready to eat. I'm sure you are too, haha.


Dropsets?

Oh they'll be coming soon enough, LB. With the 5/3/1, I'm following the book; not adding in anything extra. Once I get into the groove with high volume again, rest assure you'll see drop/super sets thrown in on the regular.


70's on flyes? Nice! Solid work, bro.

Gotta love me some heavy flyes!


Sick work there bro! Nice volume. I hear ya, know how you feel.

Thanks, bud.


How do you like chest and bi's instead of tris??

Chest and biceps, believe it or not, represent my weak body parts. So I hit them together after 2 full rest days. I hit triceps after shoulders. I've been doing it for about 6 months now and like it. My triceps are well developed, so I can take a bit of a 'hit' when training them directly after shoulders.

Nice work as always big man....how long you plan on dieting, for the summer?

[C.Coronato]

201 is no joke, i bet you feel 1000x better than that 230+ you once were. I know i do lol.

[T o m m Y]

Yeah man as long as you still hitting your numbers your good to go man..

201? uh oh..WOMAN STATUS SOON..LOL..;)

[LayzieBone085]

how long you been rocking the low-carb? Maybe see if you can change your carb/fat ratio's to suit you. Low carb isnt the only way to diet, some people can get shredded on higher carbs and lower fat.

[OklahomaMuscle]

Still bangin in here I see... glad the cut went well, consider me back to watch the next phase homie... do work

[mritter3]

nice squatting aggression, still hitting the numbers after losing some weight...means your keeping some strength...keep it up man.

[Aggression]

Nice work as always big man....how long you plan on dieting, for the summer?

Fuck no, lol. I'm on the last few days of Cuts and then its game-time for growth. I'm not attempting to get 'stage-ready', but I definitely wanted to shed some unnecessary weight. Now I'll take advantage of the little rebound window and build up from the solid stage I'm in right now, and stay lean while adding quality LB's to the frame. Not concerned with the scale, just overall quality mass.


201 is no joke, i bet you feel 1000x better than that 230+ you once were. I know i do lol.

Ha. Well, physically I feel a lot better. Mentally, eh ... 235lbs was nice to state verbally, lol.


Yeah man as long as you still hitting your numbers your good to go man..

201? uh oh..WOMAN STATUS SOON..LOL..;)

I had some cookies and milk last night to make sure I didn't dip below 200, lol. That shit can't happen unless I'm stepping on stage!


how long you been rocking the low-carb? Maybe see if you can change your carb/fat ratio's to suit you. Low carb isnt the only way to diet, some people can get shredded on higher carbs and lower fat.

I've been going low-carb for a few weeks now. Low-carb is the only way to go .. for ME. I know this. I look at carbs and my waist grows, lol. Right now I'm only implementing carbs at 3 times; breakfast, pre/postWO. When I start my bulk, I'll be doing the same, just adding a helluva lot more carbs; loading up at those 3 critical times. As for the other meals, high/higher protein and fats. Should be great ...


Still bangin in here I see... glad the cut went well, consider me back to watch the next phase homie... do work

Awesome. Glad to have ya back in the mix, OKM. How ya been?


nice squatting aggression, still hitting the numbers after losing some weight...means your keeping some strength...keep it up man.

Yup. Strength is pretty much there, its just a bit tough to hit those big movements when you're on low carbs. All in all, I'm pretty happy with what's going on right now. I can't complain.

See im not the only one noticing this as well :)

[Beach91]

Nice to see the drop sets A, and no pain is a def. bonus

Saw your squat results too, and to hit the reps on low carbs as well, is a job well done, good stuff bro

[Firedrake]

Solids shoulders. I'm glad to hear it's not giving you any problem.

Great dropsets, too!

Wait, don't drop below 200 pounds now!!!! Didn't I read on some thread that is frowned upon? LOL!

Nah, I like your gameplan...

Easy there, sailor. HaHa. The muscles ain't ready for THAT much volume ... yet.


Haha, agreed for sure, 225 was nice for me to say, but hard to walk/run/tie shoes ect.

Dude, it was terrible. A certain moment sticks out in my mind; I chased my dog around the fireplace, 2 trips worth. All in all, it was about 15 steps total. I was out of breath. My mom made fun of me, and my dog looked at me like I was pathetic. LoL. But fuck it, I was 235 hahaha.


See im not the only one noticing this as well :)

Haha in time, my friend. In time ...

Yup. Its a little tight now after the DOMS, I'm assuming. When I'm hitting the weights, I'm basically pain free. The 'pain' just settles in a bit a day after, but its not even noticeable unless I move it in a certain way. I'll be Ok..


Solids shoulders. I'm glad to hear it's not giving you any problem.

Great dropsets, too!

Yup. I'm still hesistant to really 'turn it up' with the intensity, as I don't want to sacrifice form and worsen it. A couple more weeks of going a bit easier and I should be primed and ready. Once I give it 'active rest' and load up on more amounts of food at the same time, things should look pretty bright ...


You're an Animal bro.

Wait, don't drop below 200 pounds now!!!! Didn't I read on some thread that is frowned upon? LOL!

Nah, I like your gameplan...

Nooooooooo! LOL. That's why I had the cookies two nights ago. Can't dip below 2!


Awesome sessions Adam! Nothing fancy, but it gets it done.

Thanks, P. Yup. That's what I like about the 5/3/1. Nothing fancy. Just big lifts with big weight.
--------------

Off last night; had my softball games. Had a terrible outing. In 3 game's worth, I think I only had like 3 hits accompanied by 2 RBI's. Last game I think I was 8/10 or something like that, but everyone has an off-night. Can't wait til next week. However, my ability to track a fly ball has come back to me. As 'cans of corn' are once again 'cans of corn'. niCe.

Deadlifts tonight; 420x1+. I'm going to try to get a video of it. I'm loading up a bit on carbs today. Not really a 're-feed', but I'm just giving myself some extra fuel for the deads. We'll see what happens.

[Funky]

420x1+ All I can say is you better give us at least 5 you can do it!!

[OklahomaMuscle]

420x4 is awsome bro..

Good work..

Whats the new mass diet going to look like?

Thanks, T. The new diet will be exactly like the one I'm using now with more food. I'll be adding in higher amounts of carbs for breakfast, pre/postWO and then I'll be adding fats back into the meals that do not contain carbs.


Looking good bro. 420x4. Thats good shit.

Thanks man. I think I'm going to try a 500lb deadlift on Friday.


Agreed, 420x4 is solid. Enjoy the deload.

ehhh ... deload ...


Solid! It's a shame about the vid -- some people shouldn't be trusted with high technology. <grin>

Bro, this video camera is the simplest one ever. I bought it for a job a few years back and still use it occasionally. Its not high quality, but it works. The one button says 'movie'. The other, 'picture'. All you have to do is press 'movie' for it to start recording and then press it again for it to end. That's it. Confused?


Very good work, by the time the kid learns how to tape, you ll be hitting 500 for 5,

No worries, the kid will definitely have another chance to tape some big plates goin up!

Ha, yeah. I'll be sure to get someone else to do it this week if I do decide to try a 500lb.


Sick work bro! 420 x 4 is no fucking joke, bet you felt that come Saturday morning.

Geez, what a moron...

Thanks man. Yeah I didn't even bother tellin' the kid. For some reason, I think he knew ...


Sucks about the tape that is why you bring a tripod and push it your self lol!! 420x4 is pretty strong bro!!

I've seen the powerlifters set up a camera on a rack right next to where we deadlift. If I bring my regular camera, I'll do that on Friday. The one I had last week wasn't flat on the bottom, so it wouldn't have sat there.

[scals]

You got 500. No problem.

Damn dude, that is HELLA impressive for your weight.

I've still been able to gain strength and hit the minimal numbers, plus more while dieting down. I'm feelin' OK with that, haha.

I listened to most of it on the way up to work this morning. Track 9 is next. I'm pretty sure I heard 'Haddaway's What Is Love' as the sample ... wHAT??

Yes sir. Just trying to jack up the strength. Its all part of the overall goal; gain strength, then use that extra strength to add more mass.

Sorry to hear about the 500 bro. You will definitely get it next time!

Great looking session at what I hear is an awesome South Jerz gym.

Can't wait to hit up Atilis myself some day soon.

Peace, G

gym looked awesome man...nice looking chest workout and that deadlift number will be yours soon bud.

[B Con]

That's a bad ass gym. The outside reminds me of App State... You will pull that 500 in no time. It took me a long time to get the motion of pulling with my legs more versus my back. Add on some increased work to my hamstrings and I was doing more "efficient" pulling than I think I ever have before. You got this.

very nice on the inclines man!

I love the incline bench, and the incline DBs. Gotta hit them next week.


Sorry to hear about the 500 bro. You will definitely get it next time!

Sorry? Nah, I'm not, dude. It will come. I was a little pissed on the first failed attempt, but then that guy was talking to me about it. He told I'm easily strong enough, but I just need to work on form; driving with the legs. He had me doing some accessory work afterward.

Absolutely an awesome gym. We definitely have to plan something there.

Its such a sick gym man, no doubt. I wish I could train there on a daily basis.

Yup. Pulling with my back and no legs has ALWAYS been an issue. I'll be working on it and in time I'll pull it easy.

Yeah I'm not concerned with the 500. I was pissed that day, but w/e. It'll come. Can't be too upset after spending 8 weeks dieting down, dropping 10lbs+ and expecting to pull a PR on deads, haha.

Golf was a great time. A nice father-son action. I shot a 105 (haha). My one thing is I can't drive worth a shit. I'll tee-off and hit the ball 10-20yds. I keep topping the ball. But then I'll bust out my 3-iron and rock that shit right down the middle. My iron game is tight, my putting is average. But I lose a stroke with every drive; its a wasted shot. On the last few holes, I tried something different and it seemed to work. On hole 18, I drove the ball so far/so straight that it ended up in the water; a water hazard that I never thought I'd be able to reach, haha. We'll see. I gotta get out there more often. It was the first time playing in 2 years.

We eat well, my friend. There's so much to go around. And everything is delicious, whether its a fine Italian dinner or a 3am cheesesteak after a few brews, lol.

As for life with plenty of carbs? I wouldn't know! I'm still only eating carbs are 3 meals; breakfast, pre, postWO. And my post-postWO meal on leg days contains carbs as well, usually 1/2c white rice. I'm easing back into it and gaining quality weight this time. I want to stay lean so that when I hit that contest prep again, I'm ready to rock right out of the cage.

Can't say I feel your pain, brother. If my legs were dead-on and I was instructed to stay away from leg day, I'd be a happy mother fucker! I always hate the drive to the gym on leg day. Its a love-hate relationship. I don't want to start them, but once I get into the workout, I love every second of it. Then the switch flips back to 'hate' once I settle into my commute home, haha.

Looking good brotha. Deli Spot? Cant be beaten there brotha. Im looking forward to that for sure.

Yeah man. We were just gonna head home but spotted a niCe local neighborhood deli. Had to stop in there. Got myself a loaded turkey sandwich.


What up Big A? How u doin....

Goin from big to huge, eh?! Any chance of you makin it out to Cleveland?

Big to huge to freak! As for Cleveland, I wish dude. I think I'm gonna have to hang back and hold down the fort.


As long as i see triple and dropsets in here. I know big time work is being put in.
Loving it!

Ha, you know it, LB!


Get your head right!!! Back Saturday morning!

Head has been straight buddy. Bring the pain.


nice session Aggression...I noticed your PWO is always differnt...is there a method to the madness?

I've switched gears about 2 weeks ago, from trimming up to lean mass building. So I've switched from a lighter shake to Torrent once again. Torrent will be the mainstay from here on out. Random circumstances such as Saturday; trained with a best friend who doesn't lift, different gym, different time, etc., we just saw a deli and stopped in. I made sure to get some quick carbs; gatorade and a white roll, along with some turkey piled high.

Looks like another good one, bro. Cant go wrong with lots of presses.

[LayzieBone085]

High volume is your thing huh?

[scals]

Solid work brother. Couple more days.

Likin the Volume A, has your strength stayed from the 5/3/1 cycles going into your higher volume work?

Gotta thicken up the chest right now, so presses will be the mainstay.

Hell yeah.

Yes sir.


Likin the Volume A, has your strength stayed from the 5/3/1 cycles going into your higher volume work?

Its hard to say right now. The volume was very low with the 5/3/1, so its going to take some time for my body to build the stamina back up to support the higher volume. Once that happens, I definitely feel that my strength will be higher than it was pre-5/3/1.
------------

No training last night. I had softball. Not much to brag about, as I've been terrible at the plate, that is until the 2nd game last night, where I proceeded to jack a grand slam to dead center field. Shit, the ball was still on its way up as it went over the fence. Game 2 pinned up 5 RBI's for Aggression. Not bad.

Training with Enforcer tonight over at World's Gym. We're attacking shoulders together and then I'll finish up with some triceps. Dun Dun Dunnnnnn

Weighed in at 206.0lbs this morning; 1.6lb increase in a week's time; progress.

Real nice presses Aggs!! I've incorporated more incline and decline in my arsenal now that i'm back. I'm loving the incline especially with Dumbells now. We'll see how it goes. Keep it up in here bro always love the motivation you bring us!

[mritter3]

SOLID WEIGHT INCREASE, Progress is always good

I love incline/decline presses. I watched a video with Dorian Yates and he stated that he used a lot of decline movements as well as incline, yet didn't focus too much on the bench press. I love DB Preses and HS presses for 'flat', but the flat barbell is something I rarely use; I just don't feel it.

Shit was intense.

Yes sir. Still keeping the waist in check. Still pulling to the last notch on the belt.
