Thread: CLPgold's BULK

Hi there, this should be fun. Just wanted to stop in and wish ya good luck and hope you have an awesome trip in Dec. as well.

hey!
Where are you going?

Well I'm leaving this Thursday until Dec.9/02. I'm just home for a couple days then leave again on the 11th until the 19th. Home just a couple days again, then me and the kids head to Calgary on the 21st. It's a very busy month. Gotta find me a puter to post whilst I'm gone the first couple weeks. The last couple weeks in Calgary are OK cuz I'll be at my parents house and they have one. It can be done! Training and eating clean won't be a problem.

Um, since when do you "eat clean"?

Just a little bitty one.

It's Monday night before BULK FEST!

I will not be able to make it to the gym for my weight and stats until 6:00pm tomorrow. Obviously I will have eaten a few meals by then and have had a tonne of water. I don't own a scale. But if I kick my lazy ass for a second and realize the damn gym is right across the street from me within view, maybe I should just pop over there quick as soon as the kids are off to school. Or right before.... Ah decisions!

Anyways, I'm excited. I love new goals and challenges. And again, I'm getting a nice 'rack' March 10th so I need to gain as much lean mass as possible before I have to take a whole month off. I'm doing the April FAME too so I'm not too concerned about muscle at that one, but I need to make up for it for Musclemania in July.

It's 12:20am and the BULK has officially started. Seeing as my hours are much different than most other people's I decided to enjoy my last 'non DP approved' meal.

1 HUGE salad: iceburg, romaine, radicchio, purple cabbage, fricasee, snow peas, carrots
1/3cp almonds thrown on top
2 1/2tbsp. Kraft creamy poppy seed dressing

2cp RED GRAPES Hahahahahaha.

Whhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaa I'm gonna miss those.....

But since I'm still gonna enjoy a few beers here, there and everywhere I think I can live without the red grapes for a bit.

Too bad I don't have any beers in the fridge

Nope, couldn't get to the gym. Had to take our new puppy to my youngest daughter's show and tell. I am assuming my weight is around 124-125lb and that's great considering I was down to 116-117lb only 3-4weeks ago. But since I've been back at the gym, I've also been concentrating on keeping my glycogen stores full and it's making a huge difference in the look and shape of my muscles.

CLP....you have to try to eat more than 3 times in a day to Bulk!

DP

Thanks DP. I will get 1-2 more meals in tonight. My hours are a litte different than other people's so I eat at a later time to start and finish. My last meal will probably be around 1:30am or 2:00am. I'm also drinking too so I kinda am thinking about calorie compensating.

Do the macros and meals look good so far. I'm switching up my training once I leave out of town. I'm going back to a 5 day split. 1-2 bodypart a day. Weekends off. Also gonna start doing super heavy, 4sets 6-8reps. I love pushing it, and showing off in the gym

I don't use any condiments (ever - ketchup, mustard, mayo etc...) Oh that's a lie!!! I've been having Kraft Creamy Poppy Seed dressing - which I've stopped as of today, and Soy Sauce which I probably will still use. Is this OK? and no dairy (no dairy for the bulk anyways). When I do have dairy it is usually in the form of cottage cheese, no other cheese, no milk, cream, no yogourt etc. But I like yogourt and will use it sparingly when getting ready for the Fitness Model Search. The only things I ever drink are water or beer. I never touch stimulants or fat burners, including coffee, ephedra, etc....

For the next 5 weeks with me not home I'm mainly going to be able to eat:
chicken breasts
ribs
pork chops
steaks
eggs
canned salmon
yams
some potatoes
salad w/my homemade dressing (using acv instead as per your knowledge)
brown basmati rice
oatmeal
apples
strawberries - if I can find them now
peanut butter
almonds
sunflower seeds
brocoli
and hopefully some green/yellow beans, peas (are they OK cuz I like em?)
BEER

Let me know what's left out or needs to be deleted other than BEER!

Total water: At least 6litres.

Cals: 1427
Protein: 149gm
Fat: 70gm
Carbs: 44gm

Confessions: 12 Labatt Blue Light! I don't add those into my macro breakdown ever! It could get scary

Just for my own amusement and curiosity I checked up on 12 Lite Beers. 1200cals. Did I get enough cals in for the day then DP?

Hey DP I was just reading KG's journal and saw you mention bodytype, genetics(parents) etc. I've posted it before, but I'll do it again so you know.

My father:
5' 8" maybe 9", but I doubt it. Little shrimpster. He weighed around 145-155 most of his life, until he discovered he had Celiac's and got put on a proper diet for it. Then he ballooned up to 185. He looked real fat. Now he's back down to 165 in his older age cuz he's smarter and wiser.
He has a small-medium frame and very proportioned.

My mommy:
5' 1"-2" I think she has shrunk to the 1" in her old age. Hehe.
She always weighed between 95-105lb. With a very tiny frame. Her legs are shorter (thanks MOM!!!!) and she can put weight on her thighs and butt when she gets bigger.
Now she's 135lb and looks horrible. She's even got a double chin at that weight!

On my dad's side of the family all the males average about 5'9" including my brother. My brother was small most of his life and got teased a lot. He's been lifting weights for several years now (he's 35) and looks great with great symmetry. He still has all his hair too haha, whereas my dad started balding at 21.
The women however (including my deceased grandmother and both aunts) were between 4'11" and 5'2" and tended to gain weight quite easily.

On my mom's side, she's the shorty. Her 2 siblings, and many aunts, uncles, cousins etc. all tend to be quite tall. 5'6" or more for the women, and 5'11" or more for the men. They're all slender and very healthy.

On my mom's side we LOVE alcohol! Again, thanks mom!

I don't use any condiments .....and no dairy (no dairy for the bulk anyways ...... I never touch stimulants or fat burners, including coffee, ephedra, etc....

Anyone else notice the contradictions here

Man is he gonna yell at you for that statement!

Moi? I don't Yell....it's kinda like silent rage, except in the gym....a lot of "growling", "snorting", and the occassional Kiai

Mine is calling my partner a "WUUUUSSSSSS"

http://www.shotokanforeveryone.com/kiai.htm

(No, I actually use "JAAAAAA")

Anyway.......CLP......it appears that you are going to be taller and thiner until later in life (then lookout, 10-15 unwanted FAT pounds) no matter what you do, kind of that one in 4-5 non-IR person. Doesn't mean that you will be LEAN, especially with your drinking (I thought Leaness was a goal?)..............

Anyway...the one and only lecture you'll get from me, and I will look for her picture tomorrow to scan and post, a friend of Mrs. Pain and myself (the Wild Years), Danielle....a 5'11.5" Blonde former model, Sand's Pool Girl.........died tragically at 30 from LIVER FAILURE! It was horrible, the rapid decline in her health......a once beautiful woman, her beauty fading almost overnight, her physique shot, dead at 30!!!!!!


DP

OK, I'll cut back on the beer. Maybe I'll even try a couple weeks without it. OK, new goal...no beer for 2 weeks.

But beer's not a condiment or stimulant It's just plain good.

Hmmm, or is it a condiment? People do use it when making BBQ steaks and certain other dishes.
