oml....i want your diet....i am so impressed that you have hemp....alot of bb'ers dont understand the value of hemp and omega 6's vs omega 3's....i am salavating over here....and no cardio...2 weeks and i am definately on that plan...can't wait to read more about your journey...where is your comp?

p.s if you or anyone else needs bulk hemp...best quality and price...i got it.

www.manitobaharvest.com please excuse the website...they have yet to see the value in online marketing...but there product is far superior to anything i have ever seen or tastd.

Well i was talking to this wonderful and remarkable woman the other day and she was mentioning how good it was so. Being the open minded person I was I figured what the hell and the point she made was defeintely valid one and she hasn't been wrong yet.

thanks dear

Last night I was really feeling strong so i decided to challege my self my workout and ended up with flat bench for 385 for 5 and then decided to really test my self and knocked out 425 for just about 2 with a long pause in between reps. Today I will cut pre and post workout meal out and just be around 3400-3600 caloires with no cardio. I never like to do cardio day before leg day for the fact of reserving all of my energy for the next day leg workout. I'm feeling alittle irriated today i don't know why. It will pass I'm sure. May be it was the fact that I did not eat for 3.5 hours because of some ahole ( Potty mouth I know) at work causing problems.

You in America or the UK?

he is in America silly.....can't you read? jj

cheer up h to sun is shining and we are dieting.....lol....plus Vegas is coming soon.

Just checking. I imagine the Pa means Philadelphia?

Just when he refered to the NABBA nationals (which were 3 weeks ago in the UK) and then the Universe (which is in Birmingham this year, but the past two years before that was up here in Newcastle).

oooooo i c

Last night was leg night and I had a very stressful day at work and had a pounding head. I did end up with heavy leg presses with 24 plates for sets of 6-8 reps which felt pretty easy. I started eating cottage cheese and gain and my system just cannot handle it so I'm going back to egg/ whey, Prom3 instead. Diary products just make me hold lots of water and bloat hell out of my stomach, but it does make me strong as an ox. I lowered my caloires a bit because I want to stay lean while gaining lowred to 3600 but still no cardio. Tonight is arms and i will be stronger thats for sure.

Workout was very strong tonight My caloires running at 4500 when I ran them through fit day. I'm actually starting to lean outfrom this amount of caloires with no cardio. But i'm having the hardest time doing number 2. I tried fiber supplements and other things, but still no success. I hate to have this bloatted feeling in stomach.

Tonight i was very vascualr tonight and very tight in my arms. Abs are going to tighten up becuase I'm going to start doing them 3 days a week and stat my posing at 15 minutes to start to build my endurance and to help my conditioning even more. My weight i could care less . contest is by height class so its all about symetry and conditoining (what bodybuilding is really about) i should come in about 205 -210 dry oonce i get rolling. Arms were really pumped tonight the Beverly muscle synergy works awesmoe for sustaining pump and full ness.

we did arms in 45 minutes
3 sets of 3 exercises for biceps and triceps

My traiing partner had to leave earlier and I was still sor my chest any way so it was just perfect.

To day i decided I'm going to start ab training 3 times a week so when it comes time to shed the fat there will be a nice 8 pack under neath of there waiting to rear its ugly head. I belive the abs are the first thing that attract judges attention because they are right at eye level. This year I plan ono having a super mid tight mid section with crazy conditioning. I also plan on bringing upmy lagging body parts (calves and hamstrings) and to have much more detail in my lower back from doing half dead left. This week is recovery week to let bodu recooperate so the follwoing week brings me to 14 weeks out from the first show and then 2 weeks till the big one where I will be at my peak in conditoing , symretry and hardness. Still no cardio untill i need it i'm going to let the diet take over and see how that goes. I'm in Jeremiah's hands from Beverly international rom hear on in

i'm back and with a vengence. I decided to reduce caloires after been off for a week lay off. I put on a little fat becuase I did not do a damn thing and had some good meals if you know what i mean but i did remember to take ala.
