Back Attack

Today was back day and I killed it! I started with weighted chins with 25lbs for reps of 10. I then moved to modified tbar row with 265lbs for reps of 10. After was reverse grip pulldowns with 180lbs for reps of 10. The last exercise was deadlift with only 315 for reps of 6. I was done after the last set! I'm sure I'll be sore tomorrow so I'll just relax and just do cardio.

The Dreaded Day

Most of us bodybuilders dread leg day but we all have to do it. It's what separates us from the rest of you club boys. You club boys just like to train your chest and biceps wearing those tight shirts to the gym and wearing those baggy pants. What's wrong with wearing shorts? My bad. You have to hide your chicken legs! I'm always asked, "How much do you bench?". WTF! Do I look like a powerlifter? I lift pretty heavy thank you but that is not of my concern. What concerns me is to gain quality muscle mass. You skinny ass club boys need to focus on what you really want to achieve. When I stand under the squat rack, you guys just stare and talk shit cuz you don't have the balls to do it! You just go next door and use the leg extension machine and try to lift as heavy as you can thinking you're going to get big legs. Whoopty doo! When you want bug legs, you gotta lift heavy and hard but with good form of course. The pain is unbearable but the results you get from it is amazing! You train your legs hard and your upper body will grow even more.
Enough of this rambling. I just need to mentally prepare for tomorrow's lift. I'm going to go pretty heavy so I have to prepare myself. To be continued...........

Off Day

This a.m. I went to worlds to do ab training and light cardio since I have leg training tomorrow. It is important to have some BCAA's and some carbs before cardio first thing in the morning. You are basically in a catabolic state during the night and when you have no glycogen in your system, your body is going to convert your muscles into glycogen. You end up losing muscle instead of fat. So, I just had 10 grams of BCAA, 5 grams of creatine, and a bottle of G2 to get me going.
When I returned from the gym, I had my usual 6 egg omlette with turky sausage and cheddar cheese and a cup and a half of oatmeal.

Mass Training

It's been awhile since I posted on here but I'll give you an update of what my training has been like for the past few months. I've been training FS-T 7 style which is basically completing a set of 7 for reps of 8-15 for your last workout. You basically use it for a weak bodypart. Since mine is my chest, I would end my chest workout with cable flys for 7 sets of 8-12 reps. This forces massive blood to your muscles which helps them to grow. As of yesterday, I am back on mass training so I'm going much heavier for lower reps minus the fst-7's. I am also going to increase my caloric intake. I'm going to try to gain about 10lbs in the next 2 months or so while trying to keep my bodyfat at a minimum. I'll do that by incorporating cardio a few times a week. The cardio I will be incorporating will be HIIT. I've been using the bike @ the gym to do HIIT and it seems to be working. I will continue posting my progress.
