Keep killing it man, any noteable strength increase comparisons since beginning?
 
I was thinking along the same lines unless he is trying to stay in a certain weight class, he really isn't eating much. Are you getting any snacks in between your meals? If not and you do want to gain a little have a spoon full of peanut butter 2-3 times a day in between meals. Heck with your weight and what not you could get away with adding some honey in your peanut butter too.

since the beginning of this log or since the start of 5/3/1?

eat more.

Lots more.=)

i will -- gotta start countin what i eat again. that helped me alot to get over 3 kcals / day

just got a new schedule at school so i'm workin on figurin the best times to eat between classes and work. i like the peanut butter idea; i think i'm gonna start doin that. and some 2% milk to wash it all down.
 
The log I think, that is when you started the PRIME right?
 
The log I think, that is when you started the PRIME right?

Yes.

Here are some first week comparisons for squat, bench, deadlift, and shoulder press.

I'll be using a formula found in the text of 5/3/1 by Jim Wendler:

1RM = ((Reps * 0.0333) + 1) * WeightedLifted

The number in the parentheses is the estimated 1RM based on the reps at the weight done. This should offer some crude measure to compare on a month to month basis.

Cycle 1 - Cycle 2:
Squat: 235x7 (290) to 245x8 (310) +30lbs
Bench: 185x9 (240) to 185x8 (235) -5lbs
[EDIT 1/14/2010]
So I went back through the numbers for this cycle on the spreadsheet and it turns out that I typed in the numbers wrong last month. I've put an edit in that past marking the correction.
So here's the real comparison:
Bench: 175x9 (227) to 185x8 (235) +7lbs
Deadlift: 285x14 (418) to 295x14 (432) +12lbs
Shoulder Press: 105x5 (122) to 100x9 (130) + 8lbs

There's a least a little improvement in most areas. Even if the bench numbers were right the first time -- indicating a decrease in performance, there's positive change in all other areas. During the first week of the next cycle, i'll post more comparisons as a tracker of my progress.

Man don't take this the wrong way but at your size / body weight that 30 lb strength increase on squats would be like a 50 lb increase for someone my size. That is seriously impressive. Unsure why the bench went down was the day a particularly bad day for you on your last bench, or was the first one an unusually strong bench day for you? I can't wait to see what has happened with the other lifts. Pound for pound you are one strong azz beast man!
 
Orb go eat a damn cheeseburger! :poke: jus messin bro..but seriously eat more food. I'm talking have a Protein shake as an appetizer and steak and rice as your entree. Then follow it up with a tub of ice cream, rinse, repeat.

i'm tryin brotha. i b!tched on a 'tein shake this mornin due to stomach not feelin good, and diet's kinda been off all this week. been lookin around for good recipes to cook more fresh foods instead of eatin out of the freezer all the time.
 
oh ****...yeah bro..def get a cookbook. Having delicious meals will def motivate you to eat more.
 
Hey go look in Snag'd and Torn no more thread. Snags is putting up protien shake recipes with whipping cream and peanut butter. Stuff that would make your shakes off the chain AND will give you the cals you need.

Today felt absolutely terrible, even deadlifts didn't feel solid today. I'm pretty disappointed with this week in general. So far Monday has been the only day that felt any kind of good.
 
dude that snag thread is that shiz! thanks for pointing me to that. also, i went back through the 5/3/1 spreadsheet that i have and it turns out that i mistyped an update from a month ago; i even looked back through the little booklet that i usually have when i lift tellin me the numbers for each cycle. Otherwise, I would have done the same numbers as last cycle as this cycle, which makes no sense whatsoever. so i've editted the post above with the new comparisons between last cycle and this cycle.

You're allowed to have a bad day every now and again. Just don't let it happen again this month... :006:
 
Week 5 Day 5

I feel like a total b!tch today -- from diet to the supps to just be awake. nothing today has felt quite right.

Diet
Felt like i was gettin sick this morning, so my breakfast consisted of gargling salt water, and drinking a lot of tea.
Dinner: 1 box Pizza Bagel Bites (900 cal, 36g 'tein)

Dosing
Pre W/O: 3 PowerFULL, 3 Prime, 2 scoops VasoCharge

20x8 | 17.5x8
22.5 x 8 | 20x5

despite feeling like a ghost all day, i did feel pretty solid during the workout. The weights didn't feel easy per se, but I did feel the determination to push through and pump out the numbers i wanted. I feel like that's been missing the past few times in the gym.
 
Man you need to order some Grub On or something get your appetite up. You not eating much because you are feeling sick for the past few days?

Way to soldier through that workout thoguh. Don't forget that sometimes it is better to listen to your body if getting sick and not train. If you don't feel well tomorrow and you are scheduled to lift I would hold off.

yes the appetite was down today because i didn't feel so hot today, yesterday evening i was feelin too solid either. got a few days off to kick whatever this is in the @$$ and hit it hard on monday. I think if i just starting counting my calories i'll be able to hit 3 kcals / day easily instead of just guessing and assuming that i've eaten enough for the day. that worked in the past for me. also, gonna start guzzlin water everyday to try and flush my system, but also keep it hydrated during the day.
 
Cool man. Do what you do and feed that body to get that grand!
 
Orb I'm gonna start making fun of you if you dont eat....dare I even offer you a Manpon?

Weekend Update

so to add to my vagi-ness, all this weekend i was pretty sick, spent the last few days recooperating. hit the gym hard tonight though.
 
Week 6 Day 1

Recovering from a slight sickness this weekend, but I'm very very pleased.

Dosing:
1st Meal: 1 AP, 1 Prime
Pre Pre W/O: 3 Prime, 3 PowerFULL, 2 scoops Vasocharge.
**We were all ready to go, and then decided to go a bit later...like 3 hours later
Pre W/O: 2 scoops VasoCharge + 1 scoop slingSHOT + 12 oz water <- more on this later
2nd Meal: 1 AP, 2 Prime
Pre Bed: 1/2 tsp 1-C

Ok, so inarius graciously offered to let me try some slingSHOT. I decided to mix it with some vasocharge. Here are my thoughts:
  • Gave a sick pump in the gym
  • Definitely could feel it wearing off afterwards
  • Tasted like a carbonated rubber band with powdered sugar

The Lifts
Squat:
Warmup: stretching, 135x10, 185x5
Working Sets: 205x3, 230x3, 260x7 (est. 320 1RM, -2lbs from last 3 rep cycle)

Leg Sled
140 sled + 200lbs: 3 sets, 8 reps

Banded Pull Throughs:
3 sets SS 2x5reps wide grip pullups

Hips / Calf Cycle:
Seated Calf + Hip Adductors + Hip Abductors:
70 x 15 | 37 x 20 | 37 x 20
80 x 15 | 44 x 15 | 44 x 15
90 x 15 | 51 x 12 | 51 x 12
90 x 15 | 65 x 15 | 65 x 15

Prone Ham Curls
36 x 15, 60 x 15

Despite losing an estimated 2 lbs on squat, that's pretty much the same weight -- there's not that much granularity between the weights as it is, so i'm still pleased with the progress on that front.
 
With a meet upcoming in Scranton, I am torn. I could obtain equipment and compete and probably qualify for nationals and then compete at nationals, or i could not. I think that competing at nationals would be fun, but there's not a snowball's chance in hell that i could come remotely close to placing, it'd just be for the experience and for the fun of it.

i guess it all comes down to this:
is it worth spending the $$$ to get equipment and compete or not, knowing that i would probably never use the equipment ever again?
 
IMO... no. Not only do you have less than 2 weeks to get your equipment and learn how to use but then you have to deload before the meet . If you were gonna do it, you should have done it weeks ago... just my opinion

they're both pretty good and have a lot of recipes that i'm gonna try in the future. also been logging what i eat so i have a more accurate idea of how much more i need to eat on a day to day basis to reach my eating goals for the day.
 
Keep it up man, don't get discouraged you have a great base and when your metabolism slows and you get the MAN Weight you will be a force to be reckoned with. Easily an extra 10 lbs just from getting older, as long as you keep it up. Thinner guys have got to love getting older when they are tyring to get big.

Week 7 Day 2

Ok so i didn't mention this yesterday because it didn't seem important at the time, but during squats yesterday, I felt my right tricep tweak a little and was slightly sore for the rest of the work. I'd had this problem before so I figured it'd go away, and for the rest of yesterday, and today it did. But today, it came back full force, and now as I type this update, I'm busy icing it and hopped up on aleve. Nonetheless:

Meals
Breakfast: Protein shake
Lunch: 2 chicken patties topped with honey, yogurt
Snack: Salami Sandwich
Dinner / Post WO: Protein shake
More dinner: ginger spiced chicken / rice seasoned with basil and lime juice / raw chopped green peppers

Dosing
Breakfast: 1 AP, 2 Prime
Lunch: 1 AP, 2 Prime
Pre WO: 3 Prime, 3 PowerFULL, 2 scoops Vasocharge
Intra: 2 scoops XTend
More dinner: 1 AP, 1 Prime
Pre Bed: 1/2 tsp 1-C

The Lifts
Bench:
Warmup: stretching, 135x5
Working sets: 160x5, 180x3, 200x4.5

DB Flat Bench:
50x10, 60x8, 70x6, 70x7, 70x8

I had to stop here because the long head of my right tricep was (is) absolutely killing me. I don't know how I tweaked it during squats, but I'm sure that failing form on bb bench didn't help. I'm probably tucking my elbows too much when i lift, which puts a lot of weight on the tris, and me being a southpaw, my left tricep is stronger and could handle the weight better than my right, which is now wrapped up with ice on it. hopefully this'll go away over the next few days and i'll be back 100% in two weeks for the next cycle. Next week is deload so that is perfect to recover.

With the conclusion of the heavy week for Cycle 2, here are some comparisons from the heavy week of Cycle 1:

The numbers in the parentheses are an estimation of the 1RM according to:

1RM = ((Reps * 0.0333) + 1) * Weight

Squat: 265x5 (309) to 275x5 (321) -> +11lbs
Bench: 195x7 (240) to 200x4 (227) -> -13lbs
Deadlift: 315x5 (367) to 325x6 (390) -> +23lbs
Military: 105x8 (133) to 110x6 (132) -> -1lb
