A couple of recent pics taken at my home gym. Notice the glorious tan.

Gears or no gears?

Either way, good work. You'd look pretty ripped with a tan.

No gears for six years. This is my undieted "walking around condition"

Good grief. Congrat's.

Swole.

And no animals either. Its still hard to believe when I see the pics

Doesn't get much better. Nice job!

Thanks for the compliments!! I train at home and never get much feedback (other than from my wife).

jesus christ. I can't imagine you with gear.

props for a job well done,


thank your maker for those freaken awesome genetics

your lean, how strict is your diet?

or shall i say, what does your normal daily diet look like?

Yes, diet and supplement regimen would be helpful, thanks!

I'm a vegetarian (lacto ovo). I get my protein from whey and some eggs. I eat a ton of carbs (bagels, breads, oatmeal). Honestly my diet is not strict at all. The only supplements I have used consistantly for the last few years are a multi vitamin pak and creatine mono. I do take flax and olive oil as well. I have trained at home in my garage for the last four years using a fairly basic set up.

I train every bodypart once per week. I train four days per week.

Mon: chest and bi's

Bench press: warmups-135 for for 10, 185 for 8, 245 for 4.

work sets: 275 for 8, 315 for 8-10, 315 for 8.

Incline bench (wide grip): 245 for 8-10, and two more sets usually at 225 for about eight reps.

Flys: 3 sets of 20 using 50 lbs dumbells. I don't have anything heavier. Yes it sucks.

I usually finish chest with a couple of sets of dips (20-30 reps).

Biceps:

dumbell curls 3-4 sets of 50 lbs db's for 10-20 reps

Hammer curls 3- 4 sets with 50 lbs db's

I end the session with a cset or two more of dips (20-30 reps)

Tues: legs- I do two different rountines depending on how my knees feel.
1. warmups sets: bar for 20 reps , 135, for 20 reps, 185 for 8 reps, 245 for 4 reps. work sets: 275 for 8-10, 325 two sets of 8-10 reps that's it.

2. bar for 20 reps. six sets of 135 for 20 reps.

I don't do any direct hamstring work. my low back just can't take it anymore. I also quit doing calf work. I really have no means to do them effectively at home. I'm kind of pissed because I used to train them hard. After not doing them for three plus years they look exactly the same.

Wed: off day

Thurs: shoulders and triceps

Shoulders:

lateral raises: three sets of 15-20 reps

rear delt raise lying on bench: three sets of 15-20r reps

Seated millitary press: 155 for 8, 175 for 8, 185 for 8.

I usually do a couple of sets of dips (20-30 reps) as a delt finisher.

Triceps: overhead rope extensions 3 sets of 15-20

Pushdowns: 3 sets of 8-20

skullcrushers with 50 lbs dumbells 10-20 reps. Bar skull crushers really bother my bad elbow.

I end the session with one or two more sets of dips (20-30 reps).

Fri: back

Pulldowns/or pullups 3 sets

seated rows three sets

bent rows three sets of 225-245 for 8-10 reps.

Shrugs: 3 sets of 315 for 8-10 reps.

No gear is a limiting factor. I was quite a bit larger and stonger six years ago. However, I honestly don't feel as if my vegetarian diet limits me at all. I take in 200 plus grams of protein daily.

I hate you.

Nice routine. Hell you trump many a 40 year old, though there is a 50 year old on here who posted last year who was huge! Thats probably you in 10 years lol.

Nice workouts, and as I said before great results. And on a no meat diet as well. I couldnt survive without meat myself. Then again, no reason a person cant run without it.

There was a guy I knew who was in his 60's when I still trained at a gym who made me feel bad about myself.
