Waterbury's 10/10 Log

sorry but i just have to ask this again as it was not answered a few posts back:\

question about Chad’s explanation a few pages back:

If you have been training for less than a year:
�?� start with ABBH,
�?� then to BBB,
�?� Then to the Waterbury Method.
�?� At that point, you can start the 10/10.

does this mean that since i have not been consistant throughout the last few years i should begin with what he has purposed or will muscle memory play a big part in just begining with the 10/10?

stats:
30 yrs old
190lbs
5’10"

I’m not Chad, but I would think you could do 10/10 right off the bat. Hopefully some others will chime in on this for you.

I would personally do one of his other programs (or any other program for a while before starting this) - though ultimately the program should give you the same results either way - it’s just to avoid a burnout I would’ve thought.

I’m currently doing the V-Diet, but after I finish the transition phase and finish the ABBH, BBB, WM series I plan on starting 10/10. I purchased the plan and started looking over the different phases. My question, to anyone looking at the thread, ideally CW, is how should I schedule my brazilian jiu jitsu training into the workout plan? I would replace the HIIT sessions, but in phase II, those aren’t used.

Thanks

Update for Day 14 Phase II
176 lbs
19% BF
36.5" waist
35.25" hips

Gained 1.5 lbs this week. BF% down a .5%. Not much change in the measurements.
Have to wait and see if I gain more weight at the end of this week by having 4 days off straight.

pharmD and rsg,

Thanks for the input!! appreciated!!

Hey guys im logging my experience over at anabolicminds.com

Little background info. I ran the V-Diet for two weeks before i started the 10/10 transformation. I really wanted to boost so fat loss, and get me motivated to stick to the 10/10 transformation 100%. After two weeks on the V-Diet and one week of a transition I lost about 11 pounds (179 to 168). Anyways I am currently 1.5 weeks into phase 1 and loving these circuits! Currently i am at about 166.2 after 9 days on the 10/10 transformation

I have just finished phase 2 of Waterbury’s program, and below have been my results (I weight myself upon waking at 5:15 Am every tuesday morning after going to the bathroom).

Phase 1:
Week 1 (starting) 200 pounds at 16.9%bf

Week 2 197 pounds at 15.9%

Week 3 194.8 pounds at 15.3%

Phase 2:
Week 1 194.8 pounds at 14.8%

Week 2 194.8 pounds at 14.2%

Week 3 194.8 pounds at 13.7%

Im very happy thus far and am looking forward to starting phase 3.

Wow,
Nice results so far adrucker, keep up the good work.

I decided to extend phase III to 4 weeks to add a bit more fat loss. I know I’ve lost weight overall because my clothes are a lot looser, but it’s difficult to see it in the mirror.
Will post end of phase III results this weekend.

Nice results adrucker…Keep it up.

ha ha…the spell checker thinks your name should be sapsucker, but damn; mine should be narc.

I’m on the 10/10 bandwagon. Just started it this week, although I’m not going to adhere to the diet 100%, I’m fairly lean to begin with and my diet is good overall. Instead of the Acai juice i am using superfood and Acai berry green tea. I’m also doing my usual PWO shakes and not the raisins and protein, although I do that throughout the day.

I’m also going to go without creatine, been on is the last few years time to take a break. I think it has been one reason I have chubby cheeks syndrome when I’m at about 10% BF.

Day 1 was kick ass, short but the 30 second rest between exercises doesn’t give you musch time to catch your breath, I loved it!

I enjoyed the HIIT on day 2 of phase 1. 10 seconds sprint, 50 second walk is much better than the 30 second hard runs he prescribed for the Waterbury summer project, that might be why I fell off the wagon with the HIIT on that routine, although I had great results.

I’m doing this program in conjuction with the 8 week calf blitzkreig, so we’ll see how long I can keep that up. I have a feeling my appetite is going to sore so I hope to see great gains, will post results as I progress.


End of Week 9 picture.

The program specifies Rows in Phase 1.

What type are you guys doing? Bent-over, upright, Barbell, Dumbell, Cable…

I did barbell rowing in phase 2, and in phase 1 I switched between dumbell 1 arm, and barbell rowind.

T-bar or bent over barbell.

I used a sitting cable row. Now I look back and think I should have gone with a bent over BB row?

For T-Bar you can try putting a BB in a corner and hook a V-bar under the BB. It works pretty good.

I did seated cable rows in Phase 1. In Phase 2 I have switched it to T-Bar rows or Bent over barbell rows, depending on what gym I go to.

I’m doing inverted rows for phase I. I’m elevating my feet on a bench and am wearing a weighted vest. Since I’m going to be doing underhand and overhand bent over rows and 1 armed rows the rest of the program, I thought I would throw in an exercise I rarely do.
