Alright guys and gals I've decided once again to try to compete. I competed back in 2010 Bbing at a very light, but ripped 143lbs. I know, crazy huh? Considering I am 5'8" I was way to light. I am sitting around 208lbs and I am guessing 12-14% BF right now so I have put a lot of size on over the last 4 years. I have a lot coming up the next few months, state boards, new job, etc, so I am going to need a push to stay in line with my goals.
For those of you who haven't followed along any of my logs a little about myself. I am 38yrs old going on 21 , married and have 3 boys, ages 14,13, and 7. For those of you with kids you know things can get crazy sometimes, with school activites, sports, and just family time, sometimes I am at the gym at weird hours, but I normally seem to make it. Right now I am unemployed, but taking my state boards this Wednesday, and hoping with in a few weeks to start a new career. I graduated from PTA school last fall and haven't quiet been able to pass my boards yet. This is it though, I am tired of taking them, so I WILL pass it this time!!
I have been increasing my calories lately. Over the last few days I have bumped them up to Cal 3,761 F 95.1 C 424.1 P 263.3. That is four meals, post workout carbs (Karbolyn) and a protein shake with oats. All the norm foods, chicken, beef, fish, potatoes, rice, eggs etc. It has been pretty hard to get everything in so I may miss a meal here and there.I will try to list my macros everyday so you can see where I am at. It's kinda funny the last few days I have been upping them, but have dropped a few lbs?
I am doing what I can to build over the next 8 weeks, then start slowing cutting for 16 weeks until my show April 4th. Right now I doing a very simple routine. It was put together by a friends trainer. 3 day on, 1 off, 3 days on. I actually felt like I was't doing enough on some of the days so I have added a little in. I am on a few different "supps" so I may add more in, depending on my recovery ... anyway I will post the workouts up daily and maybe get some opinions. This is my third week of this routine and my strength is shooting way up.
I'll get noodz and measurements up with in a few days. There won't be much food porn because I eat pretty basic and not much to show haha. Maybe a cheat meal here and there. I will throw up some vids here and there though. I have also decided with my new career I need to be a little more descrete about certain supps I am using. If you are interested in what I am taking you are welcome to pm me
Starting Stats:
R. bi- 17"
R. Quad/ham- 25"
