You know I have some pretty upsetting news. So at work, they promised us 3 meals a day right? Well the Pres of the company had to leave on business so the VP has taken over for a few days. Prior to the VP popping in we had gotten 3 decent meals and had gatorades and bottles of water. Well Mr. VP decided to shut all that down, we now only have 6 oz water bottles (like 1 sip) and he is only giving us 1 shitty meal per day, today was frozen chinese food from walmart… Why did he do this you ask? Well we found out his bonus is based on the businesses cost/profit margin. So every dollar they spend feeding us subtracts 10 cents from his bonus and he felt it was necessary to shaft us so he gets his full bonus, talk about a fucking douche eh?
Anyways, got off a little early and had some time to jump in the gym real quick. Did some back, bi’s, and tri’s. Still at 280 thank God! I’m getting like 1/4th the calories I’m used to lol, sucks!
That sucks man. I’ve worked with bosses like that, real class A assholes. I work 12 hour shifts too and just take a cooler full of food, can’t you do something like that? I fill it with milk, protein, fruit, nuts, jerky and maybe some sandwiches. If I have microwave access I cook big meals - like 2-3lbs of meat and pack it in containers which I can heat up. Granted, you can’t always eat how you want.[/quote]
Unfortunately we don’t get breaks other than when they bring us food and since this homo has decided to not bring us food that means no breaks.
I usually buy 80/20 ground beef as that’s what’s usually on sale or cheaper. I drain the meat as I cook and sometimes, I could do what ScottM suggested and spray with water until it runs clear, cuz apparently that get’s a lot of the fat off.
I basically took 80/20 ground chuck in FitDay and took the fat from like 25 to 15 g per serving since I figured I drained at least that much.

Alright my brothers, I’m embarking on a new split and training approach starting next week, partly do to classes but also to help some lagging bodyparts.
First things first, I’m going to be doing two a days on almost every training day. However, it is not going to be your normal chest in the morning back at night kind of thing. Instead on chest day I’m going to be hitting chest hard on flat bench and close grips in the morning while focusing on the upper pecs and flies at night. I will also be doing back width in the morning and thickness at night. On shoulder tricep day I will hit shoulders in the morning triceps at night and on leg day I will train quads and hams in the morning and calves at night. Bicep day will be the only day unaffected.
I will also be throwing in 3 days of cardio per week rotating between heavy bag workouts and the treadmil.
The diet will be the same trying to keep it clean and eat a large amount of proteins and good carbs.
Was wondering if anyone trained with a similar split before and if they liked. I’m going to be doing this for the nex 6 months or so regardless and i’ll obviously be reporting the progress. I feel with adiquate recovery and good nutrition accompanied with this split and me busting my ass, the gains will be pretty sweet.
seems like extra work if youre going to be in school ya know? like id think that would be better suited for when you have a lot of free time.[/quote]
It definetly is going to be extra work. However, I have plenty if free time since I’m going to community college. Granted there will be times when I need to do some project or papers that will take up ti ebut I can always adjust things. We shall see.

Get Prototype. It’s probably the most addicting game I’ve ever played. I have to set alarms to remind myself to eat otherwise I keep playing and miss meals.

How long do you usually walk?[/quote]
I usually walk, bare-minimum, 40 minutes. I like to slide into the 45-60 minute window, just so I can eat more throughout the day.
Of course, now with this new Super Hill that I’ve found around town, that may be overkill.
Bug - the 1g sounds more accurate. Maybe 2g or so, or even a bit higher. I think when I used 94/6 it was generally about 2-3g per gram, but if you’re doing that special straining stuff, it may be less.
Austin, its a skullcrusher where you let the weight touch the ground/bench and completely deload the muscle, so every rep is starting from ground zero.

I played the first one, it was fun.

I’m pretty sure it is a skull crusher that has you laying on the ground and you lower the bar until the plates hit the ground, stop the movement there and reverse it. It’s recomended you use like 25lb plates to get the full ROM in this I think too.

Ohhh lol, I’ve been doing those from time to time for years. I used to call them Kennelly skulls as can be seen in my old log on here because the first time I saw them was in a Ryan Kennelly film 2 or so years ago. Ryan Kennelly is an absolute beast and although a power lifter I would not have a problem listening to any of his advice as the man has well over twenty inch arms with triceps like a gorillas.
Updated my training log, check it out:
I highly suggest trying the murph at least once.

Where are you guys setting the pins when you do rackpulls?
I’m around 5’10 and my wingspan is 5’8 if that helps

Where the bar would be just below the knee cap is where I do mine.

I do mine from like, the top of the shin now. Right underneath the knee. It was a huge jump from where I I’d be doing them before, about .5-1 inch above the knee.
