LOL

Hey , I'm not that bad. At least I don't start a new one evrytime, or maybe I should .

yeah I know , ever since I announced about 7-10 days ago I was going to be switching back it seems like a ton a people have decided to do it too. Guess they all want to be like me I wish people would have higher goals than that .

I'm going to do at least on 9 week cycle of version one then maybe I'll give version 2 a whirl. Think the Beast Bros. will let me join them when I do ? LOL

I did have quite a few PR's last time . about the only thing that wil be different this time is my diet will be a 40/40/20 split . Never done that before so that will be an increase in carbs as opposed to the 50/30/20 split I was doing. Hoping for increased energy/strength from the carbs. Also the total cals will start at about 500 below maintenance. Got to remeember to do shorter cycles of bulking/cutting like Patrick and others do.

Anyway when I start be sure to correct me when i need it



Posted by: Rocco32

Yeah, Gary's ready to start!!! Of course the Beast Bro will let you join What is your split going to look like?

Not sure yet .

Last time it was :
day 1 - legs
day 2 - chest/biceps
day 3 - abs/calves
day 4 - back /triceps
day 5 - abs /calves
day 6 - delts/forearms
day 7 - off

No cardio to start with .

thinking about working it to get 2 complete days off. The abs/calves days weren't that time consuming so i always considered them like a day off .

Just seems like I need to do abs/calves twice a week or I might as well not do them at all.

Give me some input O Mighty Rocco !



Posted by: Rocco32

That looks fine to me. I kinda like the split I'm doing-

Delts/Bi's/Abs
Legs/Calves
Off
Chest/Tri's/Abs
Back/Traps/Calves
Off
Off or start again

Takes me about 1hour including the calves in the w/o. I decided to take out direct forearm work for a cycle and just not use straps to see if I can build my forearms that way.



Posted by: Archangel

Gary my Brother, youv'e gone and done it. Youv'e joined the "Dark side" LOL!!! I like your split, but brother, not sure if I could w/o everyday. I was thinking about after my run with the FullBody routines, to maybe hit a bodypart a day, for 5 days a week. What you think about that?

Angel,
More like "returned to the dark side" LOL . Your 1 body part a day 5 day a week idea sounds good . I've done that and liked it

Thanks DB ,
but I think I will change it a bit so I get 3 days off during the week !!!! I don't think I've ever done that before . LOL Guess I'll have to do some Insane wo's to make it neccessary to have 3 days off. You know insane like Riss, Rocco and Angel ... the three crazy-teers . LOL

anyways here's what I think I'll try:

Quads/hams/calves
chest/bi's/abs
off
lats/traps/low back/abs
delts/tri's/calves
off
off

Now I have to choose some exercises

Working 4 days a week is fine...I always get full body in 4 days...sometimes 3 if needed. I would just go an extra day or two b/c I liked going to the gym...it was never a chore for me.

Off to bed...need to get up early

Posted by: Rocco32

Wow, you put a lot of work into this. You make me tired as well Gary LOL!

Power week-
Maybe add in reverse or hammer curl, 1-2 sets on arm day
Replace Bent Lateral raise with Upright row (from what I know rear lateral don't go well with heavy weight/low reps. Hard to "hit" that muscle specifically).

RR-
Maybe to break things up can you do DB SLDL?

Everything looks great though buddy!! Good job

Thanks ANgel , I hope so. Kind of tired of looking soso all the time. Want to make a definet , obvious change in appearance in the next 9 weeks



Posted by: gwcaton

This is what I came up with for a diet for the first 3-5 weeks. It i sapprox . 500 cals below maintenance. Somewhere in the 3-5 weeks I will make an evaluation of where I am and where I want to go from there and make any changes needed, This will be a 40/40/20 split (p/c/f). A change from my 50/30/20 to see what differences if any it makes .

For simplicity's sake the diet will be the same old stuff everyday at the same time . Boring , but easy.

Meal 1 -
2 egg whites , 1 whole egg
1 c oats w/ 1/2 scoop whey
1 tbspn Nat P.B

Meal 2-
Protein shake

Meal 3 -
3 oz tuna
1 c brown rice
1 c kidney beans

Meal 4-
Protein shake

Meal 5-
4oz chicken
1 c broccoli
1 c green beans

Meal 6-
1 c cottage cheese
1 tbspn nat P.B.

2517 cals

Hey Angel ,

I wish the weekend was ova already !! I have to work Saturday and sunday !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But i will still start P/RR/S sunday. I don't have to go in until 10 am so I will still have plenty of time to wo before i go to work. I will start with power chest/bi's/abs though instead of legs. No way would i do power legs and then have to go to work.

Have fun at the game

Nice workout session! Some powerful biceps you got going there. How'd you like the chest/bicep split?

Alaric,

Thanks,
I have come to the conclusion that for me the chest /biceps split is the absolute way to go . Have done others like chest /tris but didn't feel like I was giving my tri's all I could cos they were pre exhausted from the chest wo. Same with back and bi's. But its different for everybody , just have to try them all to see which one you like the best.

Hows your cut going ? Basically thats what I am doing for the next 3-5 weeks . then I'll decide whether to maintain or bulk for a few weeks. Ultimatly I'm anting to loss the BF and reveal the 6 pack. Once i do that who knows what I'll do. Just want to prove to myself i can do it.

Hey guys...when I start my P/RR/S in a month or so, can I be part of team MOFO???? There aren't any crazy initiation rituals are there?? lol...

Good call, I'm still sticking to the original "Chest/shoulders, bi/tri" split suggested by gopro, but I feel like I'm ready to try something new pretty soon. Guess I'll have to experiment on that.

My cuts going alright, slowly but steadily. I haven't had a really strict diet just b/c my parents decide to buy my fav junk food the week i start cutting lol. But I started off my cut around 195.3, and now I'm down to about 194.5-195.0, so its going slowly but steadily.

What bf are you at right now? Bulking during the summer? I thought the whole point for summer was to cut up and get ready for the beaches
lol

Not for me LOL...after this damn shoulder injury I can't...if I do I wont have anything LOL. I will eat at an excess until I'm close to 195-200 with a normal body fat %. That will probably take close to a year or two lol. I wont be beach ready then but in a few years it will pay off!



Posted by: Alaric

ahh, well its good to see that you're training after your injury. What happened anyways (was it workout related)?

What your stats right now (height, weight, and bf wise) if ya don't mind me asking?

Yea it was workout related...I hurt it a year ago due to being an idiot and this was just a freak accident....I thought the problem was gone and pushed to hard. I was on a very harsh cut with super low cals and my body was just running on empty and couldn't handle all the stress I was giving it. I pushed myself to hard and now I'm paying for it.

Hmm not sure my stats exactly...Ive lost a few lbs these last few weeks but I think I'm around 180-185ish...I'm 5'6"...bf I have no idea. Couldn't even guess b/c I have fluctuated so damn much LOL. One day I'll measure but right now bf isn't a concern. I just want my strength back and will do what ever it takes to get it back...I dont need to be beach ready for anything so I'm strictly looking for mass and strength these next few years. My goals are 225 squat, 275 dead, and 205 bench all clean and raw. Bench I am not pursuing right now b/c of the shoulder....I'm lucky if I can handle 135 but the squats and deads will def be growing fast and I'll be in mid upper 200's by summer time.

Slow is better than too fast. More likely to be a permanent loss. My BF I'm guessing at 12 % (abs are slightly visible, have a few veins becoming visible here and there . When the veins in my lower abs come back I'll be real close to where I want to be )

yeah , if I bulk it would only be for a few weeks, 4 max probably. And that would be more for the SHOCK value so my body doesn't adapt to the cutting diet so easily .

No beaches around here But I am putting in a pool this summer , not sure how I'll like that . I live on the main drag here in town, on a curve. Hope my glaring white body doesn't cause someone to have an accident ! LOL
