Things have been going really well this week...a quick recap:

I'm settling into this new offseason training routine. This first week has been more of getting acquainted with everything as far as what weights to use, how much volume, how long workouts are taking, etc. So their have been some slight modifications to the original plan. The overall plan is still the same...I'll progressing both strength and calories up slowly, but the setup will be slightly different in a way that will work out better for me individually.

The diet has been going just fine. My bodyweight is holding steady 201lbs (has been for a couple of days) and other than a few meals eating out that I didn't measure and just guesstimated on, all of my good dieting habits are still in tact. I look very full and vascular as I'm lifting, especially on hypertrophy days, and I am REALLY enjoying that. I've continued my HIIT cardio, and surprisingly, I don't loathe it as much when I'm able to eat half way normal lol. It's also very nice to only be in the gym once a day

My supplement regime will remain the exact same as it was and has been. My diet will be very similar. I will be eating a lot of the same foods I was, only more of them, with the occasional meal that I don't measure (like going out to eat for lunch, dinner, etc.). My training will be similar to the original layout, and I will continue to update this log with highlights as I progress. Other than that, I'm looking forward to the holidays and hope everyone had a great weekend!

Things have gone well so far! Diet has been in check and I've maintained a bodyweight of 201 for the last 3-4 days now. I'm still looking full and lean in the mirrors, but I can see where the bodyfat has gone first...the same place it was last to come off! LOL! Such is life...Anyway, supplementation has been indentical. I'm taking my multi, elastimine, and cissus when I get to work with my mid morning snack. I'm taking 2 caps of fish oil in the morning, 2 caps of sesamin at lunch, and 2 caps of CLA in the evening. Pre workout, I'm taking 2 scoops of Primal NO2, 2 scoops of Xtend, 2 caps of Amp and 3 caps of PowerFull. Before carb meals, I alternate taking PSlin and Anabolic Pump. In the evening, some zma with another dose of elastimine and cissus. On cardio days, 6 caps of Yohimbe HCL. That about sums it up...

The first week of training was a good "get the feel for it" type of week. This week has gone smoother and both max strength workouts have gone great. I'm still progressing up with my strength, but I feel strong...not sure HOW strong, but I feel strong. Tomorrow is a cardio day (HIIT for me), and hypertrophy picks back up on thursday. Some highlights from the last couple of max strength workouts:

Bench: sets of 255 for 5 reps
Pull-Ups: sets of BW+50 for 5 reps
DB Military: sets of 80 for 5 reps
Squat: sets of 345 for 5 reps
Hack: sets of 365 for 5 reps

Sets felt good with no struggling to complete them. Now...it's just another boring day of work and chicken breast LOL

Some highlights from today's workout:

Bench: 305 X 5
Weighted Pull-Ups: BW+70 X 5
DB Military Press: 90 X 5
BB Shrugs: 335 X 5
BB Curls: 105 X 5
CG Bench: 225 X 5

I'm still progressing up in strength, so I'm not quite there yet. All weights felt really strong and somewhat light except for Bench Press. I'm loving the split and loving hte workouts so far. I'll be excited to see if I can break some PRs in a few weeks! Until then, just moving some weight

On bench press I'll do something like:

135X8
185X6
225X4
275X2

Then move into work sets of 305X5.
