lol everyone had a cool journey title, and I couldnt think of one. So dont ask how I came about this.
Just got back from a deployment last october. Did some excessive drinking and celebrating. And now its the new years. So here I am.
trainings random. I'm either trying something different and doin something new. I know that over my deployment I did a lot of westside and really enjoyed that. But I'll follow up tonight on the spec's of my training after I hit the gym.
EDIT: damn, sorry wrong section. can a mod move this to journeys please.

And thats how I popped my gym cherry for 09.
For dinner I found this bomb recipe from FLEX magazine.
It was..
Chicken Broccoli Casserole
4 boneless/skinless chicken breasts
1 package (10oz) frozen broccoli florets
1 can (10.75oz) 98% fat free Cream of mushroom soup
1/2 cup nonfat milk
1 cup nonfat cheddar cheese, grated.
Just cook the chicken and broccoli for 5 minutes, stir up the soup and milk, then combine them all, cook for another 5 minutes, take it out of the oven and stir, then microwave 5 more minutes, then top with cheese. Zing! 15 minute casserole.
Says serves two, but fuck that. Altogether.. 698 calories(78g protein, 60g carbs, 8g fat)
Lates.

Was about to do defranco presses but got distracted. Some guys that I've just been casually saying hi to for the past month invited out to their shack to train. Said they've invested a lot of time and money into it, and we can drop weights, play non-mainstream radio music, and motivate eachother with words that we wouldnt normally use at a public gym lol. I also started telling them about westside, and they want to try it out, so it would seem I'm getting sucked back into westside again. ahhhhhh i cant get away.
Also gunna do tire flipping for my first time ever @_@ said he has up to 600lb tires.

Maybe its just the volume, but it did a number on me. Nah I'm not doin #29 yet, or better known as the begininer routine. i've had this "base prepatory plan for powerlifting" excell spreadsheet for almost a year now. So I'ma finish out 4 weeks of that, then try 29, then try one of the more advanced ones. Its a nice curveball for westside.

Yea, my car got recovered tho, its at the impound. i went all the way to seattle to get it (1 hour ferry ride, 30 minutes in traffic) and I fucking forgot my car key haha.

Asking my parents to bring me the spare key -_- gunna be like 1hr 40min til he gets here. I just want to eat dinnnnnnnnner.
He doesnt necessarily powerlift, he just wants all around strength. He has some wierd periodization where he tries to do 5 reps of whatever his goal is to hit for 10, then the next week he aims for 8 reps, then the next week he aims for 10 reps. After he gets 10, he ups the weight and starts over at 5. He got up to like 425x10 on squats last I've seen of him. Its embarrassing for me to train with him -_-

Your brother must be doing something right cause he definitely is developing a solid physique, and 425x10 is just nuts.

pfft. Give me a month or two. Muscle memory will kick in ;d Think its just my knee, cuz my deadlift is already making its way back to 525.
I googled it, cant find a good vid. I just fully extend both legs after each rep and pause with them 2-3" above the floor, then do the next rep with the alternating knee. I've been hella into lower abs lately. dunno why.

Thanks EE. Helllllz no to straps. I just over under if the singles get too heavy.

405xmiss got stuck in the whole. But I'm close to playing with 400 again ;d
Front Squats
155x8x3
Tried the GHR machine again, still cant get the settings right, it just feels off.

135x8x3 Lower back was pumped, forgot to use a belt, so needless to say, these reps were excrutiating.

I was fighting down there for awhile, I didnt realize I didnt have a belt on(not that it woulda made a big diff). If I get 435 by the end of the month, I'll be happy. Didnt realize how much being sober and putting my diet back in check made a difference. Where you at right now? I should just get my shins blown off, this 6'2" squat leverage disadvantage is super no bueno.

After quick review of my budget and diet, I had to make some modifications
5am... protein shake
5:30am... 6 eggs, 1 cup of oats
9am... 1 cup of oats, protein shake
10:50... gym, preworkout - 5g beta alanine + intra aid til i run out
12pm... protein shake, 25g maltodextrin, 5g beta alanine
1pm... 2 chicken breasts, 2 whole wheat bread
3pm... can of tuna.. tbsp of olive oil, 2 tbsp white wine vineagar, tbsp dijon mustard(sometimes I add in this broccoli salad mix)
5pm... 2 hamburger pattys and a baked potatoe
8pm... casein shake.. cup of cottage cheese.. peanut butter mixed in cuz I hate cottage cheese :(
bed by 9-10..
Water intake: 1.5-2 gallons
Diets pretty punctual, sometimes I have no choice but to eat at those times either because I gotta be out the door, or have class within a short period of time. So it makes consistancy easier. Everything gets thawed the night before then pan fried 10 minutes before I eat it. No time to cook fancy ; _ ; soo bland.
Stack is just.. Animal Pak.. flaxseed oil(AM/PM), CLA(AM/lunch/PM), fish oil(AM/lunch/PM), dessicated liver tablets, casein, and a whey
a reward for whoever can guestimate/figure out the calories and macros. you'll win my appreciation.
off to bed, nights.

04-24-09, 11:06 pm
I'm back! Been out a few days.
So new routine I picked up from the broseph kinda.
Kinda like 20 rep squats, where you pick a 15rm kinda and rest pause 5 more reps.
Week 1 - Ramp up to 5RM
Week 2 - 5RM + 3 more reps (8 total)
Week 3 - 5RM + 5 more reps (10 total)
Week 4 - Ramp up to new 5RM
Week 5 - 5RM + 3 more reps (8 total)
Week 6 - 5RM + 5 more reps (10 total)
Week 7 - Ramp up to 1RM (hopefully PR)
Week 8 - Deload
I'll be trying to best my 5RM in 3-5 reps. and I'll try to best my 1RM every 2 months.
Tired of doing singles and triples. Need a temp change, so this'll last me 2 months, and it got my brother to a 275x10 incline/425x10 squat.
So I'll be using this for my incline bench/squats/defecit deadlifts.

375x8 was fricken gnarly. I cant wait to see if I can get 375x10 next week, then try a new 5RM the week after. Damn near passed out on the last two reps. I know I need to do more hammy work, but I thought I'd save that for back days since ima start pulling sumo now. Tomorrow is Incline BP 225x10 Then finding a 5RM for my sumo's the day after
On other news, the chick in my psych class I've been flirtin with all quarter, turns out she's 26, and I got shut down when I invited her to an opening night for some bar. Dont think she's a big drinker, so I'll have to find another angle to play, perhaps the gym. She's one of those shy girls that thinks her youth has already passed her by.

Lower backs getting stronger/better. I can definitely row more, but I need something chest supported, or to go lighter til my lower back is stronger. Still havent seen a doctor for my back.

Good day for active recovery. Got some blood flowin, and some sweat in. Needed the day off for my legs, they were still domz'd yesterday, today they're feelin better. Should be good to go for tomorrow.
One month til fall quarter, and I've been talking to some locals, and got a list of jui jitsu/boxing gyms to check out. I started looking for a gym wayy too late. If my buddy dustin is ready to sign up for a fight at the emerald queen casino, I dont think I'm ready. Gunna get my ass handed to me.
Cliffs since I havent posted here in awhile..
-buddy Dustin said if I signed up for a fight when he does, he'd buy my gloves/nice mouth guard and all that shit
-procrastinated on finding a MMA gym to train
-haven't sparred since 08

Started getting shooting pains in my right elbow/forearm at the bottom of the press, probably from jui jitsu. Will ice it tonight before bed. Thursday my thighs kept cramping up from leg day and people could wedge their elbows into my thighs and pass my guard easy, today I was ****ing people up. Rear naked choke for the wins.
Which also reminds me.
Open Mat/Jui Jitsu: 2 hours
Was 2-1 today. Thursday people just got lucky my legs were soar as craaaaaap. Its gunna come down to either going to jui jitsu and gym after, where my lifts might be comprised after being beat up from jui jitsu, or do gym first then jui jitsu after, where I'll get worked cuz I'm too tired to roll. Either way, my joins are recovering fast enough for the next day. Joint supps make a difference
Other than that. a PR today. Will shoot for 245x8 next week, 245x10 the week after. Then start fresh at 250x5. 250x8 after, 250x10 ect. and deload or change my main lift.
Weight is at 233. Despite doing 2-3 hours of jui jitsu/cardio. Gunna try to keep doing that 3-4x a week now. Met a dude retired from the marines today as well, 15 years, cool dude, taught me a lot on the mat. mma ftw

Cant wait for my back to be 'back to normal' LOL. You'll get there son, just like I'll get on your deadlift level.
Until then, lemme get your billing info for my chiropractor :cool:

Thoughts:
I just train mondays and wednesdays now. Basically upper/lower. The rest of my days are active recovery/conditioning/swimming and running.
I usuaully do my conditioning on fridays. Alligator crawls, sled work, pullups, pushups, box jumps, cone drills, ect. My 20 yard cone drill is 4.33 seconds! Vertical jump 42".and I've jumped a 59" box
Swimming runs from 30 to 60 minutes at a time, trying to get in as close to 1000 laps a month as I can.
And running is between 5~12 miles a week.
Basically just trying to be well rounded while maintaining my strength.trying to stay prepared for something in the near future! ;)
So that's where I'm at as far as training. I'll try to stay updated!
