Just got done bulking with the Iron contest on the forum and learned a great deal of knowledge from Rage and many others on the subject....but im not finished. I am about 20 pounds below where i want to be. Sitting here at 200, wanting to be 220. For once in my life i feel i have the tools to succeed. My diet is on point for about the first time ever, and my training is more intense than ever before.
4 day split
Mon-arms
tues-legs
wed-off
thurs-chest/shoulders
fri-back
supps--going back to the basics
pak
omega
real gains
pump
storm
Diet--
meal one-10-12 eggs and 1 cup oats
meal 2--chicken breast, baked potatoe, brocolli
meal 3--real gains
meal 4--chicken stir fry, with yellow and red peppers over 2 cups rice
meal 5--real gains
meal 6--gr. beef and rice
i will be checking my weight weekly and giving updates on all my training sessions, i will be throwing a lilttle cardio in from time to time, but nothing crazy. So follow me into the pure insanity that will be my life for the next few months, my goal is to get to 220 by the arnold. peace!

Sure are. Been back in the gym this week. Doing a little 3 week cut starting monday, because I'm pretty flabby and soft. But after that, the sky is the limit. No shaving and eating everything, bear-like, for the winter. Looked great in your Iron Contest pics, great work in that! Wish I could've finished properly.
