ight. I just finished a PP/SD cycle and seem to be exactly where i was at the start. I'm pretty annoyed with myself as i'm sure it's a fault on my part somewhere down the line, so i've decided to start a long term log - this will include bulks and cuts.
I've been training on and off for two years - consistently for almost a year and a half. I would consider myself to have quite alot of knowledge, as i've been one of those arm chair spectator types, reading forums and magazines, instead of actually going out there and pounding it out properly at the gym. I realise now i've overanalysed things and wasted money on too many sups.
My stats are ****e. I guess we all start somewhere though. These days i'm known as the "big guy" in my group of friends, but that's cos they're all ten stone! Quite frankly, my stats aren't worth a piece of piss compared to most people on this forum, but i really have my heart set on this to change.
For the last six months i've been on a four day split, but i've been missing one of those days with alarming regularity - that being the leg day, probably the most important. Part of this is down to working full time now, and the really hot weather as of late, but enough of that.
Starting tomorrow (Monday 7/8/06) i'll be taking up DC training, aka Doggcrapp Training. It's a form of high intensity training with a focus on rest pauses and extreme stretches, and is gaining alot of popularity, much like Madcow et al's 5*5 routines have on the net. More info at
