Well i'm not done with my cycle of Alpha Bulk/Mass yet but i'll keep updating this log through PCT and then start a new one :)
Today is a rest day/carb up day. Yesterday i ate probably less than 200 grams so today i'm going to replenish for tomorrows intense workout.
I've been doing a lot more pre exhaust super sets and for back it has been one of the most effective techniques i've tried. My back is more fatigued then my arms so my back gives out first. Got some compliments on how my back was looking wider today and i was just sitting down.
12.10.12 Workout...
Update! Just got off a 3 day break and i'm doing a full body low volume routine 3x a week with different exercises each day. Today was the first day of my routine, i aim for 2-4 sets and 1 exercise or a super set/pre exhaust exercise style. Doing as full of a range of motion as possible...
It has to be, i could of had a little of water retention but not much. My diet is good now i'm pre packing meals and i just picked up a rice cooker and made 15 cups of brown rice, i mix them with corn and boneless chicken breast. Even though i'm not dieting i want to get into the habit, once...
Update:
Did Legs/Back/Delts today
making some great improvements on pull ups recently and my weight is up to 247Lbs gym weight as well. Starting to pre pack my meals for the first time which it really isn't bad at all. Tried doing squats and i need to improve my shoulder flexability for back...
UPDATE
Well i have been doing the higher frequency/lower training volume and eating cleaner/more protein and i am now up to 245Lbs! It's a solid gain too, i believe i wasn't eating enough protein but now that i am, i see way better results. I've been focusing on compound movements like...
I know i just am learning the patience right now, I'm actually backing off right now for a week or so and doing around 8-10 reps again. They have definitely slowed down a ton, i had about 1lb of chicken today on top of eggs/turkey burger and such. I'm trying to cycle my training but it's hard...
Hit chest today and focused more on volume, overall had an insane pump and felt really good. Have been getting some lethargy but it diminishes through out the day. Haven't noticed any testicular "shutdown" yet either. My foot injury is really holding me back on leg day now, i work around it...
Sorry for the lack of updates due to the holidays! I trained back and didn't hit any PR's, also did legs i went around my foot injury with leg extensions and leg curls. I did rest pause as well to hit them as intensely as possible. Tomorrow i will be doing chest and will have another update!
Yes sir! With all honesty though i do not look as big as you man, i still got a good amount of work to do! Thank you though.
I agree with the heavy training, i think if anything heavy sets should be used sparingly. It sounds taboo in the training world but i did back a few days ago and only...
So i did back yesterday, getting better at body weight pull ups but i tried something new. I went on the assisted pull up machine and did 1 arm pull ups :) They were super hard even with 110lbs of assist but the contractions were super intense it felt like my lat was going to tear out of my back...
I'll keep that in mind, in PCT i'll add some cals in and see what happens. Still on my break but i am feeling a little better im about to go to costco and buy a ton of chicken breast :)
Just dropped in looks like a sick cycle set up!
So yesterday i went to do chest and i was just really really wiped out, joints hurt and such from going really heavy so i'm taking the next 5 days off so i can go heavy again next week and be 100%. I'll get some mid cycle pics up this weekend...
Get em man get em!
Well my Arm day went okay, i think i need to move to slightly higher reps now and switch things up. I've already added what would be considered a substantial amount of weight to my lifts. Went for 55Lbs worth of chains on dips yesterday and i managed 3 reps barely. I ran a...
Thanks man :) I'm killin' it that's for sure. About to go do arms, did legs yesterday no deads to let my lower back heal.
Seated Leg Curl: 310 x 8,6 + HUGE drop set/partials PR
Machine Leg Press: 510 x 6, 450 x 10 + Drop PR *510 moved SUPER slow i mean it was like a 1RM each rep that's how slow...
11.7.12 Chest/Delts
Decline DB Press- 85 x 3, 95 x 3, 105 x 5,2 PR's (This took a lot out of me but i killed it!)
Dips: 1 Chain x 6,5 BW x 6 (The DB press' sapped me)
Pec Deck: 170 x 6 + Drop PR
The funny thing is i hit my chest with the least volume and high intensity and it seems to be the...
Ty ty :)
Did back yesterday, decided to stay away from heavy spine loaded rowing since my back is still recovering but i did a ton of pull downs and pull ups. Had an annoying forearm cramp post workout too. I seem to be slightly stronger on pull ups i can almost add weight but i am 241Lbs now...
11.4.12 Arms
Today my main focus was doing heavy dips and inverted rows. Dips with chains has got to be the best feeling exercise I've done no bad pain at all.
**1 chain = 20Lbs, Body Weight:240Lbs, I HIT 280LB WEIGHTED DIPS TODAY!!!**
Tricep Dips: BW x 15 (EASY) 1 Chain x 7, 1.5 Chains x 5,6,6...
