I started a journal not too long ago but I got into some trouble and could not work out or eat properly for the last couple of months. Got a fresh new start for the year so going to get back on track. MY normal schedule of running at my lunch hour and lifting after work have to bee changed for a month or so due to Wrestling season. I coach the a high school team so i have to lift at lunch and wrestle after work. I want to really get in better physical shape and make some new changes to my life this year.

Goal is to drop body fat to about 11-13%
Current stats
205 lb
bf 15.5%

oo ya had a payday two to celebrate USC kick the sh*t out of OU

Strength is looking solid bro, keep up the hard work. Coaching highschool wrestling has to give you some motivation to keep up with the kids, I would imagine.

Posted by: dj_diablo54

It sure does i have to kids that should make state this year one is Senior and the other is a Junior these two guys try to beat every day and i am telling you what they are getting close. The only thing is they are going to cut wait and in order to keep around their weight i am going to have to cut as well just not like I did when i wrestled.

I did a lot of bad things to lose the weight my record is 15lb in 24 hours.

Posted by: M.J.H.

Damn, 15 lbs. in 24 hours? That's insane. Back when I used to wrestle in highschool I remember cutting 4-5 lbs. in a couple of hours was tough. Wearing layer upon layer of clothing and running laps in the heated gym. Wrestling is the toughest sport ever, if you ask me. Those 1 or 2-minute periods drain you completely.

Posted by: dj_diablo54

Ya i think it is the toughest sport ever that you have to train for but that is just my opinion, In high school the rounds are all 2 minutes but in college the first round is 3 mins. A few years ago before my accident I could finish my college matches and barley be out of breath but now i gotta take a break like every 4 mins pathetic.

Posted by: M.J.H.

At least you're still wrestling man, that's all that counts. Think about how much better off you are than most guys that used to wrestle in the past. 99% of them couldn't last 30 seconds I would bet.

What kind of training split are you following? Looks like chest and back so far, from what I can see. Have you considered posting your food and training all in the same post? Might make it easier to read.

A whey protein shake after you workout would be a great addition to your diet bro, no questions asked. As soon as you stop working out you want to kickstart your body in recovery mode, so to speak. And slamming down some whey protein will definitely get the job done. Just fine a brand that tastes good, lol. I take mine with 1% milk, a packet of Equal, and some ice.

As for the creatine, I would also take that after you workout with your whey protein. I used to do 5g right after the gym, with whey protein and about 50g of simple sugars. Another option that I liked was putting a teaspoon (5g) of creatine in 20 oz. of Gatorade and sipping on it while I trained. Seemed to help with my pumps in the gym, etc.

Posted by: dj_diablo54

Thanks monstar I will add the protein starting today, I will also Post my Food and Lifts on the same post to make it easy to ready.
I do one body part a day since i only have an hour for lunch and that is the only time i can lift since practice is after work.

Posted by: aggies1ut

You only want to drop your bf% by a little, but your diet definitely could be tweaked. Just an observation. Good luck with your goals.

Posted by: dj_diablo54

what do you suggest that I change up. By the way do you play sports in Davis. My sister run's on the track team up there and i go and party up there some times when i am visiting her. Its a nice place up there.

Posted by: fantasma62

Hey DJ...

Just shooting by here and seeing that you started a journal. It's funny, I had teh same thing happen to me. I started a journal and the last 3 months of last year were tough so I stopped doing what I was supposed to do.
I'll shoot by here once in a while to say hello and check up on you...

Good luck

Posted by: dj_diablo54

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my journal fantasma62. I know it is hard but it is nice to have support from people who know what you are going through

I lived in SD last year....downtown and 10 min. away from Qualcomm...

Chargers blow IMO.

Lived in the East Bay for 9 years though. My dad owns the rights and is a season ticket holder to 4 Niner tickets. We semi-support the Raiders though.

Check my gallery. I was at that SuperBowl in SD where the Raiders got their asses kicked.

Posted by: dj_diablo54

Wow I looked at your pics, first of all you are gorgeous

You must train very hard to look as amazing as you do.
secondly that is awesome that you got to go to a super bowl that is something i am going to do before i die. My best friend lives in PB so I go there allot in the summer just to go and party I love it down there but I don't think I could live there my truck does not fit in any of the damn parking lots.

Thanks for the compliments.

The Super Bowl kicked major ass. My dad (lucky bastard), has been to the '95 Niner Super Bowl, a 2002 World Series game where the Giants kicked butt...unfortunately only in that one game

...the last game of Elway's Stanford career (The 5 Lateral; GO BEARS!), and what would have have completed his sports journey, would have been a Cal Rose Bowl trip... and of course, the Beef Bowl at Lawry's restaurant in Beverly Hills.

Eh, Cal laid an egg in the Liberty Bowl, but hey, it's not your perrenial football powerhouse.

I lived in Downtown SD last year. Ah good 'ol parking...what a bitch down there.....I want a truck....but with the things i want to do to it and height contrainsts (only 5 feet tall), there's no way I'd be able to drive it.

Posted by: dj_diablo54

Wow you did not look that short but it is all good im not that tall my self only 5" 7' so the lifted truck makes me feel tall.

Lost 5lbs since last week most of it is probably water, but i am happy with my progress in the gym.

Posted by: fantasma62

Hey DJ,

What's up!!

Quick question, are you cutting or gaining?
I ask because I don't think you are eating enough. Maybe it's just me, but you seem to be lacking in calories....

Anyway, I am not here to criticize, but to see how you're doing....I hope all is well.....

Posted by: dj_diablo54

Hey fantasma62 I am actually cutting I have put on some weight that i am extremely upset at my self for gaining and

want to get rid of.

Posted by: dj_diablo54

well i have not posted for almost a week due to some interesting circumstances. On Tuesday I had a like hive break out on my arms barley noticeable so i took some benadrill for it and thought nothing of it. Then on Wednesday I woke up to find my face so swollen that i could barley open my eyes and my entire body was covered in Hives i mean every where. SO i went to the emergency got some shoots and pretty much slept for the next few days till Sunday. I finally returned to the gym today when my body got hot a did have a few spots start showing up but they went away.

I weighed my self today and lost another 6lbs this week, I barley had any food for like three day's so I'm sure that i lost not only fat but some muscle as well and i could feel that in the gym today when i went.
