I look forward to seeing what kind of workouts you do. Good luck.
Alright, I figure I might as well get a journal going here. Monstar keeps pushing me to do so, and it doesn't seem like too bad of an idea.
My goal is simple (in theory), it's to not be skinny and not be fat. For a little background, I began lifting weights when I was 14 and a half years old. I'm now 18 going on 19 at the end of this month. I started out around 119 pounds, since then I've been as heavy as 238. I haven't weighed myself recently, but I dieted down like crazy, had problems with depression, ect. I now look to be about 210-215 and 6-8 percent bodyfat. I'm around 5'10.
Ok, now that I have that out of the way, onto a workout. I'm just getting back into heavier lifting, I didn't push things too much today but will be sure to in the near future. Today's was a leg workout, I alternate each leg workout beginning with hams first one week, and quads first the next week.

Premier - Thanks. I was looking through your journal, I like all the dropsets you've been doing lately. Especially the deads, real cool.
Monstar - Yes, I've finally come around. Hopefully those squats will be moving back up to where they were when I was heavier. Soon.
I did a little delt action today. This is the first time I've gotten back to training them alone. I think I like doing this better.

Talk about some serious friggin' legs. Not only your legs but your upper body looks massive in the pic as well Chase. Keep up the hard work. Really hope that you continue updating your journal? Are you currently on cycle?
