getting back to triple digits


V8DAN

Recommended Posts

thought id try start one of these treads if i stick to it or not who knows,

did a bulk last summer clean food but too much too fast and not so good with meal timing .Peak weight was 104kgs hella strong (for a body builder) and looked good in a shirt came back to nz and the dietrition told me off was 20% bf at 96 or 98kgs i think, so jumped into a cut phase , 7 weeks in 7% drop in bf ,am now down to 90.7kgs didnt lose any lean mass in fact made minor gains  ,life goal is to live in the 100s so back into gaining the size minus the fat and i have Christmas in mind as the goal date to get there (wish me luck)


next measure up is friday or saturday

measure up is sunday now, dunno if im ment to write workouts in her but smashed out chest on wednesday felt like going heavy

bench 100kg 5 sets of 6
incline db press 38kg 5 sets of 6
incline flys 20kgs 5 sets of 8
flat flys 20kg 5 sets of 8
press machine negatives 120-140kgs 3 sets of 6
and some push ups make sure i was cooked


arms was yesterday went heavy aswell for a change not as sore as id like to be so i wont bother writing it up
i find tris easy to destroy but biceps seem to need things like higher reps, same muscle super sets and drop sets to really hurt them and they are also quite adaptive

legs day is today

oh yeah i do like 1 hour 20 mins cardio 5 days a week, 1 hour in the morn usually 620cals ,10 mins before and after training 100cals each

think im eating around 4000cals a day

Good stuff, mate. You should be posting progress photos!

 

What does your diet look like? Are you being pretty strict about following it?

mmm my diet well i go through 1.4kgs of chicken breast every day at the moment ,and i have 10 meals a day some are liquid meals like my 1+1/2 scoop whey+3 egg white shake pre and again post gym ,also lots of kumara and broccoli and beetroot

im fairly strict with it one cheat meal a week although it is my birthday today and i fly to aus on saturday to start back with the firefighting so this week is bound to not be the best, and once i back at work im probably 90% perfect as sometimes i dont get to choose my dinner ,or if its going off i might not get to choose what i eat for 2 weeks

Man, that's a shitload of food! Is it the extra cardio from firefighting that makes this necessary?

 

So we've got some perspective, are you natty, enhanced, or no comment? ;-) 

i just do this because its become the normal for me , i like getting results i wanted to compete but when all the comps are on is when work gets busy usually ,no comment there will leave that up to you own imagination there are rumors already but what ever im doing its working
