TP-PT The PreMier Edition!

(CLICK HERE here to view the original thread with full colors/images)

Posted by: PreMier

Ok, I was accepted to do Twin Peaks program. I will be posting workouts and diet here. Diet will be the EXACT same for 2 weeks, once I get it posted. I like things simple. After 2 weeks, calories will be dropped by 500.(starting at 3800). Here are current stats, and I will post picts this weekend. This is a bit of a cut BTW...
Stats:
Neck: 17"
Shoulders: 52 1/2"
Chest: 45"
Biceps: 16 1/4"
Forearms: 13 1/4"
Waist: 33 1/2"
Quad(top): 26"
Quad(mid): 23 1/2"
Calves: 15 1/4"

I am currently 5'8" tall and weigh 195Lbs. Im 21 and BF% is roughly 11%. Basically I need to improve everything... Legs arent big enough, especially calves, and arms arent big enough either. Chest is sickly etc.

Supplements are: Vibe by Eniva, SwoleV2, MetaPlex/CyberPlex/TheraPlex, Protein(isolate), glucosamine chondroitin and MSM, SUPER fish caps, ALA, Glycerol fuel.

I think thats bout it...

Because I was coming off a bulk... I eMailed stating that I wanted to trim down a bit.

Im still trying to get the diet in order... Maybe keep it at 3500 cals and stay there throughout then?

Posted by: PreMier

Now I remember why I hate to max.. Maxed on bench today

I think I warmed up too much. Hit 305# Its a PB atleast.

Here is my diet. I suppose I wont be cutting cals much now.

Nope. Not really. First off, my grnadmother(dads side) has cancer. She recently has had trouble and is in the hospital. I dont think she has long to live...
My great grandmother is also dying of cancer, but she is 93. Its still sad though...
This weekend my other grandparents(moms side) were in a terrible car accident up in Oregon while visiting my uncle. Both are doing ok, and are LUCKY to be alive.
Finally, I went to the bar with a friend last night.(I didnt drink). Anyway, there were 5 of us. 2 couples and myself

One of the couples(non-friend) were just kinda fighting. The kid was over hitting on another girl while his gf was drinking at the table with us. Said kid was totally smashed, adn kept coming back, and trying to fight with his gf. She started to cry blah blah blah... It just made me fucking sick. Drunk people act like total fuck heads. I wanted to smash this kids face, but its really none of my business. It was just the last straw that was an ever growing pile of stress. I just dont see how people can treat each other like that. Especially when they "care" for one another.
Yea, im weak.

My grandmother died two weeks ago due to complications from brain cancer. So if you need to talk, I've been there. Drop me a line.

Posted by: P-funk

Man that is terrible news about your grandparents. My grandfather died of cancer as well.

I hear you on the drunk guy and people treating eachother like crap. And people wonder why I don't go out on the weekends anymore. I just can't stomach society lately.

wow man... you're not weak at all. Thats a whole lot of shit to deal with all at once.

Just imagine your intensity once you hit the gym again, though.

Posted by: yellowmoomba

Sorry to hear about your family.

Keep your head up!

Posted by: maniclion

I can imagine where you're at PreM. My last living grandparent died last month, my brother's suicidal, my Mom got her bonding license revoked by a corrupt judge and my sister an Ice head is having her third baby, the other 2 don't even live with her anymore. Go to the gym, get that "iron high" you'll feel much better.

Posted by: Rocco32

Hey buddy, we're all here for you! Your not weak, your compassionate.

Posted by: tucker01

Keep You head up Prem

Your Strong, and will come out stronger because of these experiences

I never met my grandparents from my mom's side and my grandpa from dad's side.. they wer dead before I was born

I only met my grandmother from dad's side, she was in her late 90's when she past away about 12 years ago

Posted by: nikegurl

Posted by: naturaltan

Prem buddy ... life is like that sometimes. Sorry to hear about the sudden turn of events.

Posted by: CourtQueen

Yep, sometimes it definitely feels like it pours....

Keep your head up hon' ..... Try to focus on the good things with your family. I'm sure they want to see you smile more than anything.

And how you felt about the drunk guy and his behaviour towards his gf just shows your true colors - You are a very good person! Any girl is lucky to have you!

Posted by: PreMier

Mathew- Thanks man. It still continues, my best friend of years is seeing this new chick while his GF left on a mission! I asked him WTF he was thinking. Makes me mad.

Gary- Thanks a ton. Things can only get better from here on out

Sara- Hi! I am sorry to hear that. I am very lucky that I have so much faily. I dont know what I would do without them. There through the best of times, and there through the worst of times.

NG- :o Hope you have a wonderful day

NT- Yea, life for me seems to always be hard. I hope it gets better someday.

CourtQueen- Thanks for stopping in and your kind words

Its really hard to find a girl though. Dont know what my problem is

I will be starting the program on Monday still. Cant wait!
Got a new PR on dips today. Hit 60.

it's funny ... as I get older, I seem to go even harder.

I think it's because I'm making up for lost time as a teenager. I never really partied or did the bar scene that much. I couple of friends and I were gaming geeks ... we'd play frisbee to all hours of the night, play cards, play board games. Can you see how I have repressed the party thing?

Meeting IM'ers is really quite an experience. You are able to put not only faces to nicknames, but personalities as well.

Hey...I protest..I was pretty funny lsat night..ask my bartender..

Kristen got back from her paren'ts yesterday afternoon, so we met up with my best friend and his wife, went to Applebees for dinner. (Monday nights, you get a steak dine, you get a free drink) Well, three margaritas later..and we are friends w/ the bartender..she made us gooooooooood drinks...we were the life of the small crown in the bar. Don't ask me where the sheep enters the picture...

I know how you feel, bud. We all see that, but what can you do. Do you intervene? not? I've got another friend. Pretty good friend, not a particularly good father / jusband..what do you do? How far do you push the boundaries of your friendship by telling him he's fuqqin up? (poor Kris gets hear my 'mumblings'...

Life never gets easier, it is the trick to become te master and commander of your destiny. As with everybody here, I have parts of my life that just down right suck, but I have other things that balance them out. Focus on the positive things and let the negative things roll off your back. Life is too short to worry about things you cannot change, people you cannot change, circumstances you cannot change. Work on the things that you can change. We talked a little bit about this in my journal sometime back. Did I send you that information on the new project I am working on?

Hey..you can kill bambi some other time....ya gotz ta go to the 'O'!
be great to meet ya!

Posted by: PreMier

NT- LOL, its all good. I was kinda the opposite. I had a fake ID and was in the bars and clubs when I was 16. I got in a tad bit of trouble a few times too. I partied untill I was around 20'ish, adn then I just got burned out. Heh.. I have only been totally drunk once since I turned 21 back in Oct. Now, I like to just chill out, play video games, watch movies etc.

B-man- Hows it goin? Glad you could drop by. Its not that all drunk people act like fuck heads, I think it has a lot to do with their personality overall. I have never really hung out with that kid, and I really dont care to now. Man, I havent been to Applebees in so long. I used to really like that place.
Yea, it is hard. I have just decided to let people deal with it themselves. I mean, if they wanted out, then they would get out right? I dont see a point in sticking up for someone I really dont know all that well. Its a sad thing, but chivalry is dead.
Yea, I suppose life is always hard, unless you win the lottery right?

Its alright, its just that sometimes it gets harder than others. Nope... I never got the PM. Its the project in Phoenix though right?
Haha! Im sure NT knows plenty of beautiful women. I mean look at the one he married! Work is just so hectic right now, I just cant get away

Well, I already entered for the permit. I find out on the 28th of this month. I am kinda hoping I dont draw out... I really dont have the funds, plus I have never been to a BB show, and the O would be killer.

Posted by: PreMier

Squats- 2/7,5/315(had to dump the weight.. went too far down, and just couldnt make it back up.)
Extensions- 2/7,8/200
Incline BB- 2/6/225
Cable Crossover- 2/7,6/90
Military DB- 2/7/80
CG Bench- 2/7/185

Depth is important. Way to go.

Posted by: Rocco32

Way to go man. Dude, you and P throw up some great weight!

Posted by: PreMier

Patrick- Haha! Yea, I always hit parallel, and below. But this one rep I was just forced way too low.. it was hopeless to try and come back.

Rock- Thanks buddy

Posted by: atherjen

I have only got stuck on squats once! did you drop the bar??? or do you have like catcher bar thingys in the rack?
Great workout too!!

Posted by: P-funk

I crash down on the safety bars every time I train my squats to failure. I would rather do that than have someone touch me and spot me. I like to know that there was no way I could possibly do one more. I have bottomed out many times. lol.

Posted by: Rocco32

I haven't gotten stuck yet, but sometimes I almost fall over LOL

Posted by: PreMier

Jen- Yea, there are 2 steel safety bars that I set way below parallel. I just went too low, and I flung the weight off my back. Made a loud crash, but I dont care

Patrick- I used to like having a spotter. I never really dropped the weights like that at my current gym. But now, I really dont care, so I will be going crazy haha! Do you still squat barefoot? My shoes are starting to hurt my feet.. maybe I need new ones.

Rock- LOL Maybe put your feet wider?

Posted by: yellowmoomba

PM - Way to go to failure on those squats!!!

Posted by: P-funk

P- No, I don't squat bare foot anymore because when I go over three hundred pounds it really starts to put pressureon my ankles. I wear a pair of addidas samba classics. They are completly flat on the bottom, unlike baskeball shoes and running shoes, and have no heel so they don't put you into plantar flexion. I can fell the weight and stay flat at the same time without worrying about my feet rolling. Also, because I am flat footed they have a very little arch so I can really focus on pushing with the outer portion of my foot and pushing my hips out better than in running shoes. You can get a pair for aroud $30-35 so that is not bad at all.

Posted by: PreMier

YM- Thanks! Was wondering when you would wander in

P- Thanks. I was thinking of getting some indoor soccer shoes(lotto). Because thats what Mariusz uses.

Posted by: P-funk

the lotto's may be tough though because they have a narrower botow. the samba classic has a wider base which is much beter for squating IMO.

Posted by: Eggs

Good looking workout bro, way to max those squats!

Oh, and as far as shoes go... when I was squating a bit heavier before I wore boots.

ho-lee crap! You did your chest AFTER you hammered your legs? Sir, I bow to you...

I actually squated 315 for the 1st time today in a while. Felt good....But I didn't go and lift heavy on chest after that...sheesh!
Good job!
I also use those safety bars (acts as my 'spotter') when I squat. I failed out @ 315 one day, so sat the bar down on the racks. I stripped off a plate each side and got under the bar again. (I was almost ass to ankles) and stood it back up..I was actually impressed with that single....

Yea, it is hard. I have just decided to let people deal with it themselves. I mean, if they wanted out, then they would get out right? I dont see a point in sticking up for someone I really dont know all that well. Its a sad thing, but chivalry is dead.
Yea, I suppose life is always hard, unless you win the lottery right?

Hey bud-
I will send you those links Wednesday night when I get to work.
Naw, bro- chivalry isn't dead. If you are polite and honest, I believe it will come back to you ten-fold. Pick the good fights, to use a cliche.
Kristen was giving me the 'tatyana' (not the im.com tit, but her friend here) She has a loser boyfriend. Just got fired from his dead beat job, sits on the couch, has her helping him w/ his bills..yada yada... I have asked her (Kristen) if she and her other friend have sat this girl down and have a 'come to Jesus' meeting with tatyana. Well, yeah..but she still doesn't listen" And guess what? She won't. What is the saying, you can lead a horse to water, but yo can't make it drink? Same as with your situation, you cna only do so much, the persons invlovled are the ones that have to make the decision to change. You can't get yourself all twisted up in it. You can only do so much for a person...
Just keep your head up, and keep looking at the goodthings in your life, bud- things will come around. (Then take up NT's offer and take a road trip to Canada....

I don't think there is any reason to fight other than to save a life. Just my 2 cents worth ... I vowed that the next time I do battle, it wn't be a fair fight ... it won't be long ... and either me or my opponent(s) won't be walking home.

Posted by: Burner02

you are SO lucky I don't have any good photo shop expertise, my friend....as soon as I read your post above..I wsa thinking of that picture of trinity in Matrix..the famous one..where she goes slow motion in the air and looks all coiled up to strike..wiht your face morphed there instead..

I agree with ya tho,NT-
I'm too old to do the 'go out and raise hell' bit. I am more interested in making a life for Kris and myself....showing up to a lucrative client's for an appointment with a black eye / missing tooth...just wouldn't get it...

Completely agree...... The Law of Reciprocation

"One of the most potent of the weapons of influence around us is the rule for reciprocation. The rule says that we should try to repay, in kind, what another person has provided us."

Diet has been right on, except today I forgot to thaw chicken.. so 20oz of steak, instead of 10oz chx 10oz steak.

Posted by: Burner02

Yo, Pre!
was'sup
have a question: I am thinking of switching up my workouts to something that gopro suggested.
On leg day, he wants both lower back (I am guessing either SLDL or regular deads) along with legs (squats)
Now, if I am already doing squats, and doing deadlifts also bring i the quads, do you think that that is over kill for the quads?

Posted by: PreMier

Thats pretty hardcore man. I really dont feel SLDL in my back at all, but I suppose it works it a bit. I would stick with them, or some sumo style deads.
Or just try out squats then normal deads, and see how you feel. I would do squats first though.

Posted by: Monolith

Nice rows, PM.

Posted by: PreMier

Thanks Mono

I could probably increase the weight, but it really gives me a painful pump in the lower back

Thats weird...

You should give Yates rows a try. Jen seems to like them... they let you stand a lot more upright than regular rows.

This Saturday will be a bit of a cheat day. Im going to a Tongan BBQ and there will be roasted pigs, kalua pig, teri beef, teri chicken, pineapple, and a ton of other shit. I cant wait

Posted by: CourtQueen

Love teriyaki - I've never heard the term Tongan? Looks like a luau though

Posted by: nikegurl

workouts looking DAMN good.

oh - when you get a sec...go check the incline/upper chest thread. just the last few posts.

Posted by: PreMier

CQ- Yea, Tongans, come from Tonga

I suppose I could call them Pacific Islanders? I just used BBQ, but I guess it could be a luau. My vision of a luau is on a beach somewhere with a raging fire, and dancers

Hilary- Hi how are you today? Thanks, and I will check it in a few. I have so many damn threads that im subscribed too that it takes a while to check them all lol

Posted by: Monolith

Damn nice militay presses, PM.

Posted by: PreMier

Thanks Mono.

Hilary-

I am glad Gopro debated with Saturday Fever. I got going with him how doing more reps per set is better for a BB. He kept referring to Siff and hypertrophy occured with very few reps. Blah blah blah. Basically powerlifters DO NOT look anything like a BB. Why..?
I think its because of their routines.

Now im ranting

Premo....

i'm back bro. had to be a rockstar for the weekend, you know how it is.

everything's lookin good kid.

keep liftin that LIGHT WEIGHT

Posted by: PreMier

Var- I feel nothing, I am empty inside. As for time, since I started the workouts have been 60-70 mins. I just up the pace when needed. It shouldnt be too hard to stay on track, I just need some headphones and an MP3 player.

Monolith- Hey buddy. I actually really like the program. I was hanging out with this girl last night, and we went back to her place to get my car. She asked me to come inside, but I told her "I cant, I am tired and need to train tomorrow"

Jen- Thanks for asking, it was a blast. I ate soo much food I was full for hours. Not to mention the food was outstanding!

YM- Yea, I love heavy weight for traps. They are one of my better bodyparts, along with shoulders. So I have to use a lot of weight. Program is killer

Flex- Yea, there's my main man! Nice to see you had fun. I read in your journal anyway. I wish I could be a rockstar.

Have you forgotten WHY you train? You have lost the path, young grasshoppa.

Of course, Coming inside doesnt always involve breakfast, If ya had left with a kiss goodnight it would definitely have not been worth it in that case; Killer workout BTW

Now thats dedication, PM. Ass comes and goes, but muscle only goes.

Posted by: PreMier

Flex- Yes air guitar is my specialty! Plus I can party and get rowdy with the best of em haha

YM- Well, if i went inside I wouldt have made it to the gym today... I would have been doing "cardio" untill 4 in the mornin.

Flex- Yea, thats a good saying, but I would have been there for a long time. Wouldnt have gotten enough sleep to hit the gym.

Chain Link- I train to become the biggest strongest baddest mother fucker that I can be. No kiss goodnight. I think she was offended. Not a big deal though, because she called me as soon as I walked in the door to my house. Said she had a good time, and wants to hang out more.

Patrick-

haha She definately was not a 7-11 chick if you know what I mean. plus its the girl that thinks she loves me

Last think I need is a psycho right now

I'll be tired for ya...
you don't believe in low reps? I like to occasionally go to about 5 reps if I want my strength back up..(Like I want mine right now)

Posted by: PreMier

I dont really care for them... I feel it in my joints too much, when I go super heavy. Plus this program specifically says 6-9 rep range.

lol, yeah, i was wondering about it anyway after jodi did all those calf sets without going over 9 reps.

Posted by: Burner02

I like to vary rep ranges.
Today's reps kinda sucked. I was hard-bent on getting the weight up I USED to be able to do for reps, so I had a spotter and hammered on them...next week..will go back down in weight, then up again the next...

Posted by: PreMier

I was so blasted on those sets of military. Totallt drained myself, and then I tried CG bench. When I failed, I got all pissed, and banged out the proper reps.

Posted by: Monolith

lmao!

You need to get yourself pissed off more often. Drop a plate on your foot before each set or something.

Man, if I could afford an Mp3 player right now, it would be on. Its hard to explain, but when I listen to certain music, I get all tingly... and get hella strong. Maybe others get this?
