Marzouk Making you LEANER and then BIGGER

Marzouk,

This is a great opportunity man.

I applaud you for taking this up, takes some serious nuts to do this.

I see great potential here, because your upper has some thickness, once you whittle down that waist, I foresee you having a good V-taper here.

See this shit in your head, see yourself “going there”, where the mind goes the body follows.

Lets get this going

HIIT ON BIKE 2x/week : I want 6 sprints of 30secs with active rest between your sprints… should total about 30mins. I’m starting you with only this for cardio

Meal 5 : 40p, 15f

Meal 6 : 40p, 20c, 12f

SKIPLOAD : ON EVERY SATURDAY, I WANT YOUR FIRST 6 HOURS OF THE DAY TO BE A SKIPLOAD. In that time period I want you to eat stuff that contain HIGH CARBS LOW FAT freely. Eat enough so that you feel FULL AND SATISFIED but dont make yourself feel like total shit. I repeat, HIGH CARBS LOW FAT. You can eat your protein too if you want. I personally prefered not to. After this 6 hours window is complete you resume your normal off day meals. I do not want you to count your calories during the load… just eat till you are full and if you feel hungry eat again… simple as that.

FOOD CHOICES

Protein : Eggs, eggwhite, fish, lean meat, protein powder

Carbs : Rice (any), potatos (1x/day max, unless sweet potatos), oats, fruits (in the first few meals of the day, not at night), bread if you tolerate it well will be ok but 1x/day max, rice cakes, beans

Fats : olive oil, coconut oil, organic butter, eggs, nuts, natural peanut butter or any other nut butter, avocado (but you dont like this). You can eat cheese 1x/day

You can eat veggies as much as you want minus avocados. I prefer green veggies but you could eat onions, mushrooms etc too

DO NOT count trace amounts when counting macros

For examples : Oats will contain carbs and maybe 1-2g protein, only count it as carbs. So really your cals will be a bit higher. If you use salmon, or eggs, then you count the fat content too, obviously

You can use shakes as much as you like, the only rule is to not have shakes for TWO MEALS IN A ROW.

If you have meals that contain nuts or protein shakes you do not need to have veggies in that meal

Supps

Fish oil : 3g/day
Vit D : 4000iu/day, at night
Multi V : Morning, if you can get it

For training I actually want to to start with the exact same program I have Chobbs on. This is not me being lazy, by the way.

TRAINING DAYS COULD BE ANY DAYS YOU LIKE REALLY… BUT I DONT WANT THE 2ND DAY 2 TO BE THE DAY BEFORE THE 1ST DAY 1… AKA SPACE OUT THE BACKSQUATS AND DEADLIFT A BIT

Day 1 : Push

-Backsquat : 3 x 10
-Leg extensions : 2 x 15 with a 1second hold at the top
-Flat dumbell chest press : 4 x 10
-Inclined barbell press : 3 x 8
-Side lateral raises : 4 x 10
-Reverse pec deck (for rear delts) : 3 x 15 with a 1 sec hold

supersetted with
-Bench dips : x failure. Use a 3seconds negative

Day 2 : Pull

-Lying legcurls : 4 x 12
-Glute ham raise : 3 x 10
-Dumbell rows (pull with ELBOW) : 4 X 10
-Lats pulldown 1sec squeeze and 1sec stretch : 3 x 12
-Chest supported rows : 3 x 10 KEEP YOUR ELBOWS UP AND DONT JERK THE WEIGHT BY MOVING YOUR BODY AWAY FROM THE PAD. WE WANT TO HIT RHOMBOIDS THERE
-Barbell shrugs : 3 x 15
-Seated hammer curls : 4 x 10 - keep the biceps contracted, dont just go thru the motion
-Barbell curls : 3 x 12 - squeeze hard at the top. Use a 3seconds negative

Day 1 : Push
-Legpress : 5 x 20 - this will be hard… take enough rest to get all 5 sets… if it burns you know what? keep going it will eventually stop burning and just feel cold :slight_smile:
-Inclined dumbell pres : 4 x 10. Dont go up all the way, only 3/4 to keep constant tension
-Decline barbell press (in smith if you can) : 3 x 12
-Pec deck : 3 x 15 - squeeze each rep 1 sec and KEEP YOUR BACK ON THE PAD
-Dumbell shoulder press : 2 x 10
-Bent over lateral raises : 4 x 15 - try to squeeze at the top
-Side lateral raise (use machine if you have if you dont use dumbells) : 3 x 15 if dumbells 3 x 25 if machine
-V-grip pushdown : 4 x 12 - no need to squeeze but dont use your pecs/delts either…
-Lying triceps extension with dumbells : 4 x 12 - make sure you get a good stretch here

Day 2 : Pull

  • Seated legcurls : 4 x 12
  • Dumbell stiff legged deadlift : 3 x 10 - dont come up all the way… we use this to hit your HAMS- - Barbell row : 4 x 10 - make sure you keep your elbows “IN” to hit the LATS
  • Reverse grip pulldown (if you got a HS machine use this) : 3 x 12 - squeeze at the bottom

  • Dumbell curls (palm facing up) : 4 x 10
  • Preacher curl : 3 x 12
  • Reverse EZ bar curl : 4 x 15

For abs honestly… do whatever you like… lol… I usually just do 4 sets of legraise and 4sets of cable crunches 15-25 reps

For calves I want you to do them on every workout.

Alternating between

8 x 10 Standing calves raise
and
8 x 10 Seated calves raise

For your weekly report i need

  1. YOUR WEIGHT FOR EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK. VERY IMPORTANT. I need to know when you did your load too. You should post your weights the day after the load. so something like this
    Monday 29/04/2013 : 212
    Tuesday : 211.8
    Wednesday : 211
    Thursday : 211.2
    Friday : 209.6
    Saturday : 209.2 (pre load)
    Sunday : 213 (post load)

  2. Measurements for : waist, chest, thighs, arms

  3. Pics every 2 weeks

  4. Note on strenght/energy levels

Pretty extensive, thanks so much this looks rely good.

What kinda weights am i using?

Ramping?

Also is this 4 days a week?

The nutrition seems simple enough to follow, only thing i might struggle to find is the vit d - i do live in Egypt so getting sunlight isn’t an issue.

As for the training:
I’ll give the workouts a try for a few weeks and see what happens, not done this kind of split before so it’ new to me.
But i’m in your hands and i trust you.

Few things:
Can i do real dips instead of bench dips?
I cannot do Glue ham raises yet, but i can give them a shot.
Don’t have access to a chest supported row.
No squat rack, so can i do front squats instead of back squats.

Also my life is pretty hectic until Wednesday so i will start the full on nutrition program then. Until then i will lower carbs and calories.

Should i do my first skipload the first saturday? OR should i wait until the following weekend so instead of doing it after 3 days it ill be after 10.
Then resume as normal?

Also i was wondering, i prefer bigger meals less often. Is that ok?

Obviously meal 1 and 2 will not change.

Meal 3 at work

Combine meal 4 and 5

Meal latter in the evening.

Is that ok?

Actually i said the nutrition is pretty simple, i lied lol.

The whole day is easy enough but breaking the macros down into meals is a little challenging.

  1. Bench dips… Why do you wanna do reg dips?..

  2. Switch chest supported rows to cable rows using a large grip bringing bar mid chest

  3. Can you or not do ghr?.. If not just do 3 x 12 db stiff legged dl

  4. Backsquat in smith. If you cant do this either…hacksquats…if not frontsquat

  5. No you cant have 3 big meals… 100g pro per meal?.. -_-

  6. Did you TRY? to make a diet with these macros or not?.. You got till monday to try and post it. If itsucks ill adjust things

  7. Skipload in 10days

Im in nyc for the weekend back monday
