Sorry I haven’t been around all that much lately but my own life is very busy now also.
You probably feel like you’re going to ralph from staining with the weight. I feel like that every single time that I bench but I love it so I suck it up.
When you workout, how many hours in advance do you eat and what are you eating?
i eat protein and carbs. about 1 hour before lifting and then i tried eating protein and carbs 3 hours before lifting so i assuming its due to the weight lol …i am gettin bigger. and its all good with ur busy life. i am sure u got alot going on . i am just honored u check up on me
What kind of protein and carbs are you eating?
chicken and brwn rice usually or a tuna wrap …tuna , celeray and miracle whip . 2 cans of tuna and whole wheat wrap and 2 glasses of water
something about tuna and miracle whip as a pre workout meal makes my stomach turn a little. Try maybe eating solid meal say… 2-3 hours pre workout and slaming a whey shake on your way to the gym.
Thanks jdarkraget …will try that tomorrow . today i am sick as heck so not working out . recovering …think its the weather changing so much .
Hope you’re feeling better!
I have to agree, the tuna and miracle whip sounds gross. lol

Right now, trying to balance work, the gym, eating right, getting enough sleep and trying to co-ordinate my son’s school/hockey/soccer schedules:)
For the last about two months, I’ve been working with Eric Talmant doing a Sheiko program. It’s a powerlifting program with very high volume, which I needed because I had some form issues and had lost a lot of my strength due to program jumping - don’t ever do that. The volume is brutal and I curse week 3 every time.
Diet-wise, I follow Metabolic Typing principles. This is not a diet that I can just “give to you” since it’s based on the belief that every person is individual and has different needs and nutritional requirements. It involves tests and usually consults. What I will tell you about my diet is this: I eat very high protein/fat and extremely low carb. That is what works for me. I eat 5-6 times a day and when I do, it’s whole foods, organic when possible. I drink reverse osmosis water as well. My energy levels have gone through the roof and I think I’m on the road to corrected many digestive issues that I’ve had for years.
Eating whole foods is easy. You buy meat when it’s on sale and freeze it. Prepare meals ahead of time. I’ll do my cooking for 3-4 days in one afternoon and have it ready. If I don’t, it’s a disaster waiting to happen.
That’s about it for now. My goals include health and strength first, body composition last.
ABBH2 would be the next logical step. Take a day or two off depending on how you feel. I wouldn’t suggest much longer though as I’m not a proponent of deloads unless you’re a very advanced lifter. A day or two off = fine. A week off = probably not.
Oh you and your salmon and tuna. lol Have a steak! 
It’s good for you.
steak is expensive btw …unless u sending money then its free
aint to proud to beg . i cant even afford whey right now lol
The max’s
bench …155 pounds
front squat…175 pounds
back squat…215 pounds
deads…205 pounds
calf raise (stand)…255 pounds with machine
seated calf …90 pounds
bb rows ( rested forehead on incline bench)…110 pounds
all these were done one or two reps . mostly one. i was amazed i mean floored. i never new. 200’s were my goal for age 34 and i must accredit it to the ABBH1 work out so now soon the second half
wal-mart sells 3lb bags of frozen chicken breast for $6 where i live. I always buy atleast a bag a week. I also get Natty PB called “Naturally More” cost like $3. You might think thats exspensive but there is 2.2k cals in 1 tub of PB, divided into 13 servings. Each serving has:
11g fat(4.1g omega3)
8g carb (4g fiber)
10g protein
Pretty good if you ask me.
Nice work on the maxes btw I knew you had some strength in ya, keep up the progress.
HARDWORK=RESULTS
jdark:
thanks def hardwork and will look into that today . thanks for the tip . so low carbs would be the key to go to lose the stomach weight
