| Making Progress Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Scotland Posts: 118 Rep Power: | Training went really well today Shoulders and legs. Seated dumbell shoulder presses- x4 Side lateral raises - superset with smith machine wide grip upright rows - x4 barbell shoulder press (heavy).....(for me)... x1 One legged squats on smith machine- x4 leg extensions- x4 seated calf raises- x4 Like i said , training went well . Energy felt good and i felt a bit stronger than the other day  . Also added maltodextrin to my protien shakes post and pre training as advised by RAZ ,probably the reason energy was up. On a final note i started the M1T yesterday, ill be taking 2 a day for the first week and then up-ing it up to three for the next 2 weeks . Hopefully this will help utilise the protien more since my carbs are low Fiba ______________________ If your gonna do something ,do it right |

Secondly, if you're on anabolics, surely you want to just eat as much as possible and maximize gains? It doesnt seem logical to me to do low carbs. |

| Making Progress Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Scotland Posts: 118 Rep Power: | Yeah i agree totaly and is what iv always done in the past while on M1t but since im tryin to lose bodyfat i need to keep the carbs low .The purpose of the M1t is just to help keep as much muscle as i can and to get a good pump to help the nutrients get to the muscle a wee bit better . Have i got this totaly wrong and am i wasteing my time with the M1t? p.s savers do a box of dextrose for 99p so ill pick some up with the shopping today.

My bosses were called in to shoe my ass . Thought i might have been pushing it a wee bit if i turned round and said " is it ok to grab some lunch now and you can continue shouting later". Hopefull the storm will have cleared by tomorrow and i can do tonights session tomorrow. Might get to eat lunch if i dont destroy any more equipment.

Shouldnt hold me back any. Anyhow i trained Chest and tris today Dips x4 (wide) flat bench x4 incline flys x4 pushdowns x4 overhead rope extensions x4 all excercises felt good except bench press , still not gettin anywhere near where i was before, my bench has always been sh1te but now its just plain laughable , oh well . It might just be in my head but i think iv dropped some of the weight in my face . Diet is still same as above , although im seriously thinking about dropping my carbs even further after next week . Probably only 1 oatcake with meals and only a small salad .If i do this ill up my protien a little Fiba ______________________ If your gonna do something ,do it right |

| Making Progress Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Scotland Posts: 118 Rep Power: | I will post weekly now for the next 3 weeks to conclude this log . I was away on work at the end of lasr week so i couldnt post . At the moment iv lost a quarter stone so im quite pleased as i still have 3 weeks left on my current training plan . The best bit is iv done almost no cardio and my strenght is up. I start proper cardio work this week wich will include 20 mins after training on Mon-Wed-Fri and 45 mins tues-thurs , so hopefully i can get down to around 14 stone Training is goin well . I will post proper figures at the end of the week. Fiba ______________________ If your gonna do something ,do it right |

Another thing ive noticed since doing it 5-6 days/week on my cut is that my recovery times are awesome. Following even the hardest set, my heart rate/breathing stabilize very fast, it's quite handy. |
