Getting Huge.......Then getting Lean!

[Distilled Water]

Hey ladies and gents. I'm finally back.....fall ball is coming to and end and I can get back on it full tilt. Over the past 8 weeks I've managed to gain about 13lbs. I'd guess bout 5lbs of bloat (20gr Creatine mono/day and maybe 2lbs of fat. So maybe 6lbs of LBM.

I've been training off and on with a shoulder issue but I'm finally clear to begin lifting (thanks igf-1lr3!)

The diet is pretty spot on usually looks like so.....

Meal 1:
2 scoops Whey
bowl of total or oats

Meal 2:
8-10oz chicken
1/2 cup long grain rice

Post workout:
3 scoops ATW blend
1/2 carbo force
2 packets low-sugar oats

Meal 4:
8-10oz lean ground beef (boiled in water and strained)
50gr whole wheat pasta
1 cup pasta sauce (low carb)
parmasion(sp?) cheese

Meal 5:
1 scoop Syntha 6
1 scoop Muscle Milk
10oz skim milk

Meal 6:
8-10oz chicken
1 cup veggies
sesame oil
oriental seasoning

Meal 7:
8-10oz ground beef
1/4 cheese
seasoning

Meal 8:
1-2 scoops Casien in water

I consume A LOT of sodium.....I mean A LOT. Only supps right now are All The Wheys TCG mix, additional Creatine Mono and digestive enzymes.

I'm not be taking too many supps because cash flow is low.Just the occasional pre-workout mix and creatine mono

Workouts will be pretty simple until my next DC blast OCT. 13th

Monday: Chest and minor tri work
* I'll throw in some CG bench and kick backs for tris
Tuesday: cardio and abs
Wednesday: Legs and minor shoulders
*I'll throw in side and rear laterals along with shrugs for shoulders
Thursday: cardio and abs
Friday: Back and minor bi/forearm work
* I'll throw in some CG pull-downs and bicep 21's for bis and DC style forearm work.
Saturday & Sunday: OFF

I always do rotator stuff before the workout. that makes the most sense to warm it up first to me

Missed this, welcome back DW.

[Distilled Water]

Damn fellas. Im sick and really sick. I'm taken the rest of the week off just maken sure I get 400gr protein, 200gr carbs, and 75gr fat. DC eating style.

[Rugger]

Your body can digest 400 grams of protein?

[Distilled Water]

Your body can digest 400 grams of protein?

yes sir. I take digestive enzyme a few times/day. Ive noticed a lot more gains in LBM with the higher protein I do.

[Rugger]

What do you take?

[Distilled Water]

What do you take?

I take 1 MRM Digest All and 1 NOW Super Enzyme before each solid meal. Before I eat eggs I also take 1 NOW Betaine.

When I remember I take 1 NOW 8billion Acadophalis (SP?) each morning. I got them BOGO for $5. Once im out of those I'll get back on GUT Health.

I'm really surprised with the weight I was moving 2day. I didn't really eat too much and got light headed as hell during my workout a few times.

I added LG Sciences SLIN to my protocol Monday, forgot to mention that. 2caps before breakfast and 2caps post workout.

Im taken next week kinda easy workout wise then hitting DC hard again since baseball will be totally done for about 8 weeks. I plan on putting on some serious size over the next 12 weeks. Im shooting for 15lbs total. 1lb of LBM/week and throw in some water weight for good measure

[Distilled Water]

just getting my weights down for DC training next monday. thats all my workouts will be this week. Being sick took a toll of strength a little but im sure it'll bounch back next monday. I did each exercise until I felt it getting tough then stopped. I prolly could muster 2 or 3 more reps on each

Then I did the DC stretch for each. I'll post my diet up here some time later this week as I am really happy at my results thus far with it.

I will also try and get pictures up but it's a rough week with midterms and scrimages...I'll try my best.

[Distilled Water]

Here's what I've been doing lateley. Im really impressed with it thus far.

On non workout days I take in carbs after cardio and before and after practice; 50gr at each time. Each sunday I've been doing a mini-carb load. I'll eat maybe 400gr carbs for the day and just sun 2 higher fat meals for a higher protein/carb meal.

1/2 cup Brown Rice

Meal 6:

Nice log man like your routine pretty strict diet, i like it, best of luck to you im as well trying to bulk up so all the best for you, and i cant believe your body can take in 400gr of protein a day thats insane, but its whatever works for your body so go get it!!

[Distilled Water]

damn 2day suck'd! Started out GREAT then turn ****ty quick. I got in 35min of fasted cardio then got in my whey and oats post cardio. Meals 2 and 3 were perfect. Got my pre practice meal in and we did our core work then it got bad.....real bad. We did Indian Runs for an hour strraight. No breaks so I probably ended up running close to 10miles.

As soon as practice was over we had study tables so I had to stop at MacDonalds and pick up 5 dbl cheese bugers (minus the cheese and add big mac sauce!) Its a cheap big mac and I suggest everyone whos bulking to add them in every now and again. That got me 125gr of protein and 150gr carbs that I desperately needed.

I just got another shake in with some EVOO. Hopefully 2maro will go better....im beat.
