awesome man… its coming along… I start my 10/10 tomorrow…
I decided I’m not a Bentley driving, champagne drinking, blowing my nose with dollars bills baller… so I am doing the diet without Acai juice, dark chocolate, greens+, and I’m downing the dosage of BCAAs…
The program calls for something like 42g of BCAAs a day while in phase two, the bottle says never go over 30g… haha
We’ll see how it goes… if I get even 1/2 decent results from this plan I think I’ll be looking mean.
wish me luck dude

Could not get my form on the DL last night, the weight just felt really heavy and no matter how hard I tried I couldn’t stop rolling my shoulders so I kept it light and gave it my best shot.
Everything else was butter, I do wish my gym had a hip sleed instead of a leg press but I like the change of pace.
Food after work:
Very little.
Forgot my Surge so I had a turkey fillet mignon, I must say pretty freaking good! I’ll be buying more this weekend.
Pre bed
6 BCAA’s
I’ll post todays food log in another post once I’ve had more than breakfast.
Ah…I’m so full!!!
Diet today
Breakfast around 6a
1/2lb turkey burger
various pills
8am
1/2lbe turkey burger
almonds
11:15ish
7oz chicken
1.5 cups spinach
5 cherry tomatoes
2 tbsp cheese
small hand full of crushed pecans
3 BCAA’s
4 fish oil caps
This variety is so nice.
Woke up this morning weighing 214lbs, one more closer to 200 which is where I’ll stop if I ever get there.
I trained last night, I’ve decided to go 4 times a week instead of just 3, figured might as well I got the time before class and I’m already at the gym so F it.
Chest night, I hate chest night. My bench press sucks, I have a hard time activating my right pec which wears out my left because it’s doing all the work. I really need to train chest by itself more often to really focus on it. I doubt I bench over 200 anymore, ok that’s a streatch but still pretty weak.

I don’t exactly understand why while doing any chest pushing movement I cannot activate my right pec, I have control over it, I can flex it at anytime???
What ever, just another thing to work on, it’s a process.
Food:
So after my salad yesterday it went like this,
2:30p
1 turkey fillet mignon(sp)
some pecans
5:30p
1 serving Surge
12 BCAA’s mixed thoughout my WO
8:15p
5oz mystery meat
fish oil
That was it and that is all.
Half dead this morning, lack of sleep is KILLING me! Doesn’t help anything that my instructer decided last night around 9:50p that we needed some ab work, WTF?? So I did it half ass but it was enough to get the juices flowing and when I got home I could not get to sleep, by the time I did it was time to get up so I’m running on about 5 hours of sleep again. I’m glad I decided not to grow at this time because it would be a waste.
Yesterday with the exception of my “ab work” I did nothing healthy, didn’t walk no lifting nothing, yet I still feel like a sack of hammers.
Yesterdays meals:
6am
1/2 turkey burger
8:30ish
3 eggs
3 bacon
11:30a
2 cups spinach
4 cherry tomatoes
2 slices swiss cheese
7oz chicken breast
15ish pecan halves
2 tbsp honey balsomic vinager dressing 5 carbs
2:30p
1/2 turkey burger
almonds
5:30p
turkey fillet mignon (still not sure thats how you spell it)
some almonds
8:30p
small packet of sunflower seeds (I was starving and thats all the vending machine had that wasn’t made by Mars) pretty funny how a school filled with personal trainer wanna bes has NO healthy snacks in the vending machine, they do have water in the pop machines but damn, help a brother out why don’t ya.
It has come to my attention I am now skinny fat, a weak pathetic fool as guy in Mortal Combat used to say. Therefore I have decided that I’m going to risk gaining muscle.
I understand my bf% isn’t exactly ideal for such a venture but if I lose anymore weight I’m going to look really bad and what’s the point. So starting next monday I’m off this diet and will stop posting in here and start another thread for the bulking portion of this experiment. I’ll lay out my plan here now though.
So as I figure it lately my diet by the numbers has looked something like this:
2143 calories
104g’s fat
63.6g’s carbs (on WO days)
243g’s protein
I want to get around 2600-2700 calories(an extra 500-600 calories a day) a day to start off with, want to ease into this so’s not to undo what I’ve done. I’m going to shoot for 300g’s of protein that’s an extra 268 calories a day or about 1.5gs per pound.
New total of calories 2411, I’ll also need to increase my carb intake, this is where I need to be careful and not just to high so I’m going to add 25gs a day on WO days for an additional 100 calories from carbs on WO days.
New total 2511. I still need to make up the other 100ish calories in fat which I’ll do with fish oil and a few other things.
Sunday I plan on taking all my measurements and will post them in my new thread, get some maxes at the gym sometime and hopefully get my BF% done at school soon so I can track it easier.
Wish me luck and if any of this sounds retarded or backward let me know, I’m winging it with a twist of educated guessing.
Great progress Dday. Who would have thought?!?
What made you start working on you?
Cheers.

Thank you! It’s been well worth it, I’m ready to start the next journey.
I decided something had to change last year when I saw this picture. I hadn’t realized how bad I’d let it get until I saw me compaired to an Elk’s ass
So last night I up’d the anti on my workout, after checking out the weak people thread in get a life I decided I won’t be weak anymore. I pushed everything a little bit harder. It was back day so here you have it:
ROM DL
135 1X15
195 1X10
205 5X8-10 failed a couple in there but got 8 everytime
Bent rows
95 5X10
low row
120 5X10
single arm lat pulls
60 5X10 each arm
V bar row
120 5X10
shrugs
75lb DB’s 5X10
I really thought that the ROM DL hadn’t done much for me because I woke up and wasn’t sore, then I climbed the 3 flights of stairs to my office, SON…OF…A…BITCH! My hamstings and lower back are blowing up!!! I almost cried by the time I got to the top of the stairs.
I kept the bent rows low so I could concentrate on a good squeeze at the top, I can muscle around much heavier but figured I’d get more bang with great form as apposed to throwing the weight around. Same goes for the shrugs I find I get more out of controlled explosive power than brute force. In the end I’m sore as can be, this was a great session.
