Anyways..I've been slacking. So I made my workout plan through excel and will be printing it tomorrow along with starting my keto-diet and work out. HIIT once or twice a week only because on the very-low carb intake.
 
Saved for logs and future pictures

I will update this shortly.

----------------------------------------

My sheets made in Microsoft Excel. Keeping it more organized than before.

* I'm aware there are 9 Meals..I'm also sharing this guideline with a few two other friends.
I will stick with the 5-6 meals a day.


Goal: Weight-loss(fat) of 10-15LBS along with a CUT
----
Goal: After-goal: Bulk up with a increase of 5-10LBS Muscle gain
----
Goal: Calorie intake est - 1900-2200 Calories/day
---
Carbohydrate: 50-60g | 9g per meal
---
Protein: 245g-250g | 40.8g per meal
---
Fat: 109g | 18.2g per meal

----

Supplements:
» Omega-3 Fish oil capsules
» Ultra Vitamins
» Recover-Pro (2/3 jug left)

---›› I was going to use a weight-loss supplement, as well as pre-workout and during workout supplements but decided not to spend the money and put my cash towards the food.

--›› No protein whey or shakes will be used. My source will be straight from foods.
 
Wow!! Looks like you've made a tremendous progress. If you don't mind me asking - what kind of diet did you follow? any good supplements?

Thanks bro! My total log in my notebook consisted of about 35-40 days. With a loss of 12-13LBS. Started at 105LB in June, and within that time frame lost it.

I'm aware of how it works with dieting and working out now than I did before.

If you look in the link in the first post "The Journey Begins [RecoverPro & Mania] it will list my food log for mostly each day.

At first (first week) I was still getting the hands of dieting properly and playing/reading calories.

The diet I would say consisted more of a 180-200g protein, 75-120g carbs, and fats were unknown. I tried to consists my calorie intake of about 1500-1800 calories a day! This was a extreme weight-loss.

* For some it may not be a good idea to just jump the band wagon and cut your calorie intake down. For me it worked fine along with supplements.

Pre-max review of the day:

I've been waking up early then usual. Trying to get in my breakfast and get ready for my day. So far it's been great. I took some Pre-Max before the gym and the 30-45min wait made me feel a bit twitchy and nauseous. It went away once I got to the gym, I felt the energy in me and it was awesome.

Stayed in the sauna for about 20minutes with some stretching and reading then some quick sets of jump roping. I was happier with my improvements with the incline bench and managing to finish all 5 reps @ 205LBs compared to last week. This week I had a spotter though to help in case. My day still is going, but I managed to cook enough food for tonight while at work and then some for after-wards.

Pre-max review of the day:
Energy: Felt a bit nauseous without the breakfast, but that went away soon after it kicked in!

Everything this past week got messed up. I had to push some days over. I actually just did my shoulders today (Monday) rather than Saturday.

So Now rather then having done Legs and abs today and Chest and Back tomorrow I have to try to either get both days into one.

I'll see how it goes tomorrow. My gains have been better each week and my weight has been either 1 lb loss and then regained.
 
Last week ended my 6 week bulk up cycle. My gains improved, but so has my weight.
It is time to tone down, and cut up along with a balanced diet.

I will include cardio, with at least HIIT once or twice a week. My routine will consist of 4 days a week Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday, & Sunday a long with light weights, high rep training.

This process I would like to do for 8 weeks..hopefully. All my supplements for pre-workouts have been used and what I have left is another supply of the Fat Loss Stack from PP.

6 weeks ago - Jan 1st?

What have I done?

I've simply had no motivation. Cold weather and the lack of sun makes me hibernate.

I simply do NOT like it.

I will be making a purchase tonight from NutraPlanet.

Supplements:

1,3-Dimethylamylamine (200 caps)
Yohimbine (2.5 mg/90 caps)
T3 (90 caps)
ZMK (120 Veggie caps)
JACK3D (Jacked 45 servings)
Protein Powder
Fish Oil
Multi-Vitamins
Glucosamine

How does that look?
 
Ordered from DPS Nutrition and Nutra Planet..waiting for these to come in tomorrow..

1x Yohimbine (2.5 mg/90 caps) By: PrimaForce

1x T3 (90 caps) By: SAN

1x ZMK (120 Veggie caps) By: Millennium Sport Technologies

1x JACK3D (Jacked 45 servings) By: USPLabs

1x Fitness 3000 Caliper (Standard) By: Accu-Measure

I will probably begin on the 28th. And do Sun-Sat (just like a work schedule)
 
Tomorrow Day 1. Begins, hopefully everything goes smoothly.

I've been doing a dirty bulk. Getting some extra pounds of fat and then go from there.
 
First day back to the gym..

After the 2 weeks of dirty bulking and no gym, I was out of shape. I threw up today for the first time in 3 years..I was amazed from that.

Caused me to not complete my entire work out.


Managed to get some HIIT in (cause of sickness)
- Jogged 1/2 mile.. sprinted for 2/8's
- Flat bench press 5 Sets of 12 Reps - 135LB
- Decline bench press 4 Sets of 12 Reps - 135LB

Definitely not proud of this!
