The Giant Killer's Path Toward WORLD DOMINATION
Whats up all,
My name is Shaun "The Giant Killer" Clarida. As you all may or may not know, I am the newest athlete under the Universal Nutrition team. I am also a WNBF Natural Pro Lightweight competitor. Currently, I am getting ready for the biggest show of the year, which is the WNBF Pro World Championships, held in New York. I have done a total of 10 amateur shows and 4 pro show, since becoming a pro: 2007 Pro Mr. Universe- 2nd 2007 Pro Worlds-2nd 2008 Pro Worlds-3rd 2009 Pro American-2nd As you can see, very high placings, but have yet to taste a victory and I plan on tasting that as I go for the World Title again in November. Worlds is the Superbowl of the WNBF and I plan on walking away with the Superbowl ring come Nov. 14! Follow me in my journey, as I go through my prep, my training, my focus and my everything...as I prepare myself for battle. I plan to go to WAR! Pics below are from the 2009 Pro American where I placed 2nd out of 8, losing a very close decision to a top competitor. I weighed 134lbs that day. I plan to bring a BIGGER AND BETTER physique, come Worlds! http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/AcMan23/2-1.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/AcMan23/10.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/AcMan23/j2.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e3...3/104_3947.jpg http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e300/AcMan23/j4.jpg Strap up...and enjoy the ride!

Your pictures have taught me a huge lesson. Thank you for posting them. I am always trying to play the size game. I need to focus more on building quality muscle. Thanks.

Diet is pretty much the same each day: High Protein/moderate carbs/veges. I dont count calories or measure anything, I just go by how I am feeling that day. If I'm feeling pretty down, I up my carbs and always keep the protein (fish/chicken) high. If I'm feeling pretty good, I tend to not go with much carbs. I try to play with the depletions/loading days throughout my prep to keep my body guessing. Cardio-3-4x a week for 20-30 min.

Thanks everyone...
I hope you all enjoy my prep journey and my path toward World Domination. Today I will be blasting away my chest followed up with some cardio and ab work. Will let you know later how it comes out. I never write down or have a plan of action prior to going to the gym. My workouts just come from the top of my head. As long as I get in at least 20-25 sets in, IM GOOD! GK

Chest Day
Back from an INTENSE chest workout! Like I said, NEVER do I plan a workout or write anything down. I let my mind and body guide me. So here we go:
First # is weight Second # is reps Total # sets at the end Incline Dumbbell-2 warm up, 85 x12, 100 x 8, 110 x 6, 100 x 6, 80 x 8 = 5 sets Smith Flat Bench-1 warmup, 140 x 10, 180 x 8, 200 x 8, 140 x 10= 4 sets Hammer Incline (plate loaded) (1 hand at a time) 80 x 12, 90 x 10, 115 x 8= 3 sets Hammer Incline drop set (both hands now) 230 x 8, 180 x 6, 90 x 6 = 3 sets Pec Deck Flys- 140 x 12, 200 x 10, 220 x 8, 240 x 6 = 4 sets Peck Deck Fly drop set (pause at top) 220 x 6, 180 x 6, 140 x 5, 110 x 3 = 4 sets Hammer Decline (plate loaded)- 270 x 10, 230 x 12, 180 x 12 = 3 sets Cable Crossovers (90 degree angle)- 60 x 15, 70 x 12, 80 x 12, 85 x 10 = 4 sets Dips ( weighted) - 90 x 15, 90 x 12, 90 x 12, BW x 15 = 4 sets Set total=34 Forearms: Single Dumbbell wrist curls-4 sets each arm Behind the back wrist curls- 6 sets Cardio: 20 min Abs: 4 exercises This was my workout for 2nite. I spent about 3 hours in the gym. As you can see, I mix it up between freeweights and machines. I incorporate drop sets a lot, just to pump as much blood into the bodypart and go all the way to failure! If you add everything together, including all the drop sets, I did about 34 sets. If anyone knows me, I dont believe in 4-5 exercises with 15-20 reps. I need to feel like I did something, so I make sure to kill my body each day until I feel satisfied. Lots of people may say "overtraining" but in my opinion, there is NO such thing as "overtraining" I know my body and know what it needs. Time to kick back, eat a meal and start the recovery process. LEG DAY 2MORROW!!! GK
