Your mom's cool. :)
 
my mom's awesome :)

she spends probably $200+ a week on my grocery bill alone...plus my gym memberships and just about everything else...

and every once in awhile she pays for my supplements as a surprise.


:)

You mom is awesome then cuz the only thing my mom would think of buying me supplement wise is some Omega 3's or CoQ10... she's hooked on those Andrew Lessman specials they show on the home shopping network :lol:

in a very very very distant future. my age limit is 28. i guess i'll have to change my s/n in 8 years....

the male body doesn't fully balance out it's own hormones untill that age (see the reason male car insurance goes down at 26) and even afterwords. I'm all about maximizing my genetic potential, and i think i'll be able to lay myself a very solid foundation by then.

what...barry's clean right....


dude to be honest...idk even know what half this stuff...like when buster said AAS...
 
body builders do have massive heads. a few dont, but they are probably careful about what roids they take and how much.
 
Today: Chest.

I decided to do chest today, instead of arms or abs which is what was planned but yesterdays forced off day threw me off. I also need to note, that my diet was absolutely horrible last week. I did not stay on schedule, and when I did eat it wasn't the healthiest foods. I'm back up to 267 powo today.

Bench Press-
185x8x1
215x6x2
185x6x2
I felt very week on bench press today. I'm attributing it to bad diet, and bad form. I noticed I haven't been pulling my shoulders together, and my hands were sneaking closer and closer together. I usually like to keep a semi wide grip or my tri's and shoulders feel like they take over and dominate the lift.

Incline Bench
135x8x4. I hit it pretty wide on these and had a hell of a pump. several times I didn't think I'd be able to get the weight back up...

Decline Hammer Press
275x8, 10 seconds rest, x 4, 10 seconds rest, x3, 15 seconds rest, x 3, dropped the weight down to 225, x mpr.

...I did another chest exercise i don't know the name of but...it basically looks like cable crossovers from the low cables except with d.b.'s
4 sets of 10 with 25's

Cable crossovers, (from high setting)
40 lbs x 20
90 lbs x 5
90 lbs x 3
60 lbs x 8
60 lbs x 5
I've never done these before so i was kind of playing with the weight trying to find a good setting...

Shoulders
side db raises
40's x 4 sets of 8
front db raises
40's x 4 sets of 8
reverse fly machine
160 lbs (machine weight)
4 sets of 10.

I was thinking about breaking my splits down even more, and having a day just for chest, just for back, just for legs, just for arms, and just for shoulders and abs. if i do it it'll probably start...on thursday it'll look something like this.

I will also be doing stretches and 30 minutes of cardio + 10 minutes of jump rope work (no jump ropes on leg day) after every workout.
 
Looks like a nice workout, you finished strong despite your benchpress. Is your form perfect with those DB raises?
 
12 sets for shoulders is too chill... im only doing 9 sets with my new workout and it feels pathetic, i feel like i need 12-14 sets. does 12 sets feel like over training to you?
 
I think the program looks pretty good. Like with all things it depends on your personal recovery abilities and what works for your body as long as your hitting it hard and effectively. The only thing I would possibly change is you could add more leg day volume if you see fit and maybe go with a rep range of 8-12 instead of just straight 12 rep sets...but thats what works for me just throwing out some possibilities :D

good luck man :cool:

as i've told you before, i'm a firm believer in if you're having to do more volume to feel like you're getting it done, you're not lifting enough weight.

thats enough sets at a high enough range that it should help me cut fat...hopefully.
 
yeah, I'm not sure I like the "rusty transformer" look...but I read up on it and if you go down to the bottom left you can select the old look.

edit: damn usercp...put me in before all the replies!
 
well here's an update.
I just bought 20 of those 100 beta alanine tabs for a dollar things...
1 ghsr stack
1 kilo creatine mono..i have no idea what a kilo is though lol
1 50 gram thing of grape seed extract.

I also have glycobol, sx, and taurine on its way.

i'm all set for losing weight...
 
that's a crazy deal on the beta a, I wish I was about to get an order, I would pick up a lot of them
 
haha i wasn't about to order, but i saw that and decided to anyway.


this gives me a month to get some more money then depending on how i feel after my sx, i'll either go sx again, or i'll start my 'i'm curious how this would turn out ultimate natty t stak...by universal' it'll go like this 21 days animal test then 21 days animal test and animal stak, then 21 days animal stak possibly m-stak...that might change, then 21 days whatever i choose to go with the stak and n1-t, then n1-t till the bottle runs out...
 
1 kilo also ~ 2.2 pounds. Yeah, was gonna go crazy on some of the stuff on np but I still haven't managed to cap anything I've gotten yet :rant: b/c np is out of cap em quick. Oh well, btw good work and lookin' good w/the log...I'm sure I'll eat some cake this weekend for the bday celebrations and look angrily at the scale afterwards :laugh:

why cap?

can't you just swallow it...
 
depends on the stuff...besides, I prefer just capping certain things that taste horrible and have a lingering aftertaste (also, gonna have to cap 'em for when I go back to work this or next week).

tried making a bcaa mix last wo without anything to mask the bcaas...never again with that shite. gotta get myself some crystal lite!
