Ok. Lets get the formalities out of the way. Here is how I am going to do this:
I am not going to try and duplicate the clinic. It just won’t work. So I plan on taking and posting pictures, weight, measurements, food, training logs, general thoughts and rants…and of course I will rip on people. This time it won’t be limited to Shugs and Thibs but they are still targets. Anyone else…you are free game!
My goal -
I would like to put on between 10-12 pounds of good mass before my race training while maintaining or limiting the amount of lard I add.
Since I will be lifting 4 days a week, I plan on walking the other three. Also, I will need to continue to swim so I don’t lose my form or endurance for my next race. That will only be about 30-40 minutes a week, so just one session. Most likely done on Thursday’s.
Supplements: I will be taking -
HRX
Flameout
Metabolic Drive (MDC) - complete AND low-carb
Grow
BCAA’s
Superfood
Z-12
Spike Tablets
SWOF
not sure if I am going to take Carbolin 19-19, Alpha Male or Tribulex yet. Suggestions?
Lets begin: Training from yesterday
A1) Flat Bench - 10x3 – 245 lbs
rest 60 seconds
A2) Bent Over Row - 10x3 – 200 lbs
rest 60 seconds
Pretty simple session but I am sore as a mo-fo today. I based my weight off my last 1 RM session from Thibs and it was dead on accurate. The weight was perfect for both as I struggled with both at the end of the session.
I was also sweating like crazy. I had taken one scoop of SWOF pre-training with 10 BCAA’s and had another scoop during my training.
I have read a lot about Mr. Waterbury’s training’s and they most definitely don’t disappoint. I’m only one session in but I am stoked for this program. I just hope I can dial in my diet to make it happen.
Speaking of diet…here is my intake for the day:
2 eggs
1 cup egg whites
1/2 cup diced mushrooms
1/2 cup sun dried tomato’s
1/2 cup almonds
1/2 cup dried cranberries
3 scoops MDC
10 oz chicken
1/2 head iceburg lettuce
“Decadence” - (refer to diet article. but check this out: 2 cups of skim milk, 2 scoops of MDC, 2 T of peanut butter, 1/2 C fat free cottage cheese…fucking heaven!)
1/4 cup Trader Joe’s Trek Mix
10 oz chicken
1/2 head iceburg lettuce
Hows that for some food intake? Tomorrow will be a little different but for the most part things will stay the same every day, with some small tinkering.
I am basing my diet off of 4000 calories per lifting day and 3400 calories on non-lifting days. Thoughts?
I would like this to be interactive like the clinic, so feel free to post at will.
First pictures will be up on Sunday.
Until we speak again…
