Here it is: About me/my stats Body Type: Endomorph Weight: 210 Height: 5'9" Age: 21 Measurements: Waist 36", arms 17 1/2" pumped, legs 24 1/2" Years training: 6 years total, just under 2 years seriously Lifts to note: Deadlift 202kgs - 445lbs bench 140kgs ~ 310lbs Squat 120kgs ~ 265lbs (i have bad knees ) - leg press ~ 320kgs = 700lbs Shoulder press dumbells 46kg for 3 reps ~ 100lb dumbells Decline press dumbells 125lbs for 6 reps Goals Currently Bulking In the short run I have the following goals by Easter time (April) : Hit 225-230lbs bodyweight without gaining too much fat. Get my rear delts up to the level of my front/sides for improved posture and get those 'boulder shoulders'. :P Also to get my arms 18" pumped. Lift Goals by Easter time (April) : 220KG 1 rep-deadlift 150KG 1 rep-bench press (just a belt) 350KG Leg-press 140lb dumbell decline press 110lb (50kg) dumbell shoulder press Nutrition I aim for 7 - 8 'meals' per day. I say 'meal' here because i'm including the pre and PWO food here as meals. Realistically I eat 4000 - 4500 cals per day, with approx 300 grams protein, 500 grams carbs, 125 grams fats. I'm very consistent in my food and pretty religiously eat every 2 - 2 1/2 hours, and almost every day is the following: Meal 1 - Morning shake: 1 1/2 scoops dymatize elite whey, 1 banana, 1 tablespoon peanut butter, 3/4 pint of skimmed milk, 100 grams oats, 1 egg whole, 5 egg whites blended. Meals 2,3: 150 grams lean white meat (normally chicken or turkey) with approx 150 grams (cooked weight) of brown rice with cashews (raw) and raisins, sometimes with some pesto. Meal 4: Pre-workout: Either a 1/2 portion of the above, or oats with 1 1/2 scoops whey, 6 egg whites in the blender. Meal 5: Post-Workout: 2 scoops of whey, 1 egg whole, 5 whites with 3/4 scoop of dextrose. Meal 6,7 (Meal 6 is normally 1 hr after PWO): Meal like meals 2,3, or 100 grams noodles with 2 or 3 cans of tuna (130 grams/can), normally split in half. Sometimes I may substitute this meal for 2 slices of wholemeal bread with peanut butter, or for 2 wholemeal pitta breads with low-fat humus, or 10 eggs (2 yolks 8 whites) on 2 wholemeal toast slices - this is normally a relaxing part of the day in front of the TV/PC etc. Meal 8 (before bed): 1 1/2 scoops dymatize elite whey, 1 1/2 tablespoon peanut butter, 1 pint of skimmed milk, 1 egg whole, 5 egg whites blended. Points to note: All bread, rice etc is the wholemeal alternative. Peanut butter used is all natural and 98% peanuts. Milk is always skimmed. Eggs are lion-quality and are normally consumed raw unless in meals 6,7. I occassionally eat out, but when I do its nothing too bad, like Nandos (half chicken, chips () and corn). This would normally mean replacing 2 meals, but having a protein flapjack bar within that period too. Snacks: If i do snack, then it is with Chemical Nutrition Pro-flapjack bars (cherry and almond flavour), or the odd teaspoon or two of peanut butter. Exercise/Training I currently train between 5 and 6 days per week for weights, with 10 minutes cardio after each workout on fairly low intensity (HR about 130 - 140 BPM) - although have to admit i have only JUST started that cardio, and haven't been doing any at all. Normally the weight training takes 1 hr 15 mins. Training split is not 100% tight, because I base it on DOMS pains but also sometimes tying in workouts with my training buddies. Here is a TYPICAL week though: Monday: Chest Tuesday: Back Wednesday: Off Thursday: Arms Friday: Legs Saturday: Shoulders Sunday: Off, or not. I do not encorporate a strict AB schedule, perhaps I should, but scatter doing some ab work in 2 of the training days.

Been feeling ill in the last few days and not slept right either. BUT - a good thing - had my arms measured today, the right one 18 " and left one just over 17 1/2 !!! this means i've reached one of my goals i set myself for easter, getting 18". Feeling mighty fat though, weight still hovering around 15 5 Nick ______________________ - Obsession is what lazy people call dedication - |
