deload this week, perfect actually because I have my exams this week.

split next cycle:

actually not shure yet, either a 2split or a 3split.

btw: I will lower my training max in squat next cycle becuase my I need to work on form and thats easyer
to do with a bit lighter weights.

  1. My program will be based on 4 exercises: squat, bench press, deadlift and the press.

  2. I will train in the weight room 2-4 days/week.

  3. I can do any kind of assistance work that you want provided that I do chin-ups/pull-ups and either barbell or dumbbell rows.

  4. If I become fat and out of shape, I must do some kind of conditioning every day.

  5. I will not program jump and hop on the latest trend ? my program should be flexible enough to adjust/tweak to include new ideas while maintaining the core principles and integrity of the program.

  6. Diet ?If I need to lose fat: eat good food, less crap and eat ?right? 90% of the time. If I need to gain weight: eat more food. This is not a hard concept.

  7. My body is not different than anyone else but my attitude can be.

  8. I will not be impatient; the grind is where character is made. Focus on what I have to do TODAY to make tomorrow better. This is a lifelong project.

  9. Whenever I lose focus, consult this list to clear my head and get myself back on track. And when in doubt, squat and do chins.

This training rules jim laid out a livespill some time back. I have altered it a bit to suit me.
I will check this whenever I feel at loss to get my head straight.

good guidelines!

looking forward to your progress, you have a sick waist size.

bodyweight goal: 75kg.

I like to hit all this goals within 01/01 - 2013.

On the day of Odin/Woden ( wednesday ) I get my paycheck wich means I got enough mony to ramp up the
calories.

The diet I think I will be using, would look something like this:

meal 1: breakfest.
a bowl of oatmeal: consisting of 3dl oats, 5dl whole milk and raisins.
a shake: consisting of 2scoops of whey protein, 1scoop of creatin and 3-4dl whole milk.
1 tablespoon of fish oil.
1 multivitamin.

meal 2: ( snack/lunch )
1 yogurt/kesam.
1 banana.

meal 3: dinner.
pizza, pasta dish, a steak with potatos and sauce aka typical dinner.
1 shake: consisting of 2scoops of whey protein, 1scoop of creatin and 3-4dl whole milk.
1 table spoon of fish oil.

meal 4: before bed.
4 eggs and a can of tomatobeans.
1 shake: consisting of 2scoops of whey protein, 1scoop of creatin and 3-4dl whole milk.
1 tablespoon with fish oil.

*post workout meal:
a shake with 50grams protein and 50grams carbs.

ps. I got the idea with the shake after every meal from one of jims spill.

Let the gaining beginn :slight_smile:
