yeah I guess… how many cals are you eating a day?[/quote]

shit man Idk, but I eat a ton. I guess this is typically how I eat.

Breakfast-Something quick try to get in protein.

3-4hours later-3 lunches, i bring a sandwhich, carrots and apple. Plus 2-3 school lunches consisting of meet.

2 hours later- Egg sandwhich, 3-4 eggs on whole wheat bread, some ham too.

Protein shake, 30 grams of protein pre workout.

Protein shake, 60 grams protein post workout plus some simple carbs.

Dinner-Lots of meet and potato meal.

Before bed-some meet, maybe a sandwhich.

I also snack whenever I’m hungry, usually on fruit or cold cuts.

I wind up eating a lot.

Finally got to workout hard. Been dealing with some personal shit and I wasn’t able to lift for a few days.

Thanks bmitch, the bench work is takeing some time, but the form is deffinately getting better.

deadlift 496x1 new max. Had more gas left in the tank, but no more olympic weight. Next time I max I’ll either buy more weight, or someow make some makeshift plates. 21 pound increase in 2 months not bad.

Also wanted to mention that I’m a strong believer that DOMS is an indication of a good workout and new growth. I enjoy being sore after workouts because i feel more accomplished. My back workouts haven’t been cutting it and I’m hardly sore afterwards. With this indication I realize i need to up my intensity levels which I’m doing by adding more weight and then volume.

Had my friend train with me yesterday. he’s gunna train with me more often, but the workout took way too long and I’m going to have to correct that.
