    Round Two

    I've just shook up my routine and thought that a new journal was in order. My old journal is at: Eric's Motivational Thread.

    I'm trying a P/RR routine with a 3-day, chest-back, legs-shoulders, arms, split. Right now, I am about 172 Lbs. and 6'. I'm slowly heading in the right direction (9 months ago I was 147 Lbs.) My "immediate" goal is 180 Lbs. by year end, with a long-term goal of 190 Lbs. with low body fat. I think that it is do-able. I'll post my diet in a bit.

    My routine will probably change a bit over time:

    RR Arms

    Arms

    Alternating Hammer Curls, 4x12, 30 lbs. DB
    Concentration Curls, 4x12, 25 lbs. DB

    Okay, first problem. I remember doing lots of chin-ups when I was in the army. That wasn't too long ago... Hey, that was 10 years ago! I was able to do 3 unassisted chin-ups, which makes the difference between RR and P pretty meaningless at this stage. So, I think that I am going to do unassisted chin-ups for P and the machine-assisted ones for RR. That way, I can at least do the 12 or so reps that RR requires.

    Forward Grip Chin Ups, 4x12, 50 lbs.
    CG Bench Press, 4x12 70 lbs. BB
    Dip Machine, 4x12, 90 lbs.
    Forearm Curls, 4x12, 60 lbs.

    I start out each workout with 20 minutes on the bike, and end off with crunches and 4 sets of either leg lifts, knee lifts, or obliques for my abs.

    I was a strapping 173 lbs. when I stood on the scale. Next step would be RR Back and Chest on Wednesday night.

    RR Back and Chest

    Weighed in at 174.4 Lbs.

    Deadlifts, 75 lbs. BB, 4x12

    This was my first try at deadlifts. I'll have to see how I feel tomorrow. I figure that I'll keep the weight down and work on my form for the first bit.

    One-armed row, 40 lbs. DB, 4x12
    Flat Bench, 50 lbs. DB, 3x12
    Incline Bench, 45 lbs. DB, 3x12
    Decline Bench, 45 lbs x 2 BB, 3x12
    Dips (Assisted), -50 lbs., 3x12

    The same deal here as with my front grip chin-ups --> I'm going to have to start out with the dip machine. I do like the machine, natural feeling to the movement.

    Crunches, 2x35
    Abs - Knee Lifts, 4x25

    Legs and Shoulders on Friday.

    Legs and Shoulders RR

    Weighed in this morning at 171.8 Lbs.

    Leg Press, 70 lbs x 2, 4x12
    Calf Press, 70 lbs x 2, 3x12
    Hack Squat, 45 lbs x 2, 4x12
    Abs - crunches, 2x35
    Upright Rows, 70 lbs BB, 4x12

    Upright rows are new to my routine, and I could definitely feel it!

    Military Press (HS), 45 lbs x 2, 4x12
    Abs - Obliques
    Shrugs, 50 lbs. DB, 4 x12

    So, I've made it through my first RR week. Either tomorrow or on Sunday, I'll try Arms - Power.

    Creatiine

    Added Creatine to my diet this morning. Just pure creatine. I'm going to mix 5 mg. with pure grape juice 1/2 hour before my workouts. I'm not going to load or cycle. Not sure if I will also take the 5 mg. on non-work out days or not. Any thoughts?

    Arms - P

    First Power work-out this morning. Feeling pretty stiff from my Friday legs workout; no doubt that the leg press is working my legs differently! My weight was 172.8 lbs.

    Alternating Hammer Curls, 4x4, 45-40 lbs. DB
    Concentration Curls, 4x4, 40 lbs. DB
    Forward Grip Chin Ups, 4x4, -20 lbs.

    I like the chin-ups, but it is going to be awhile before I can do these unassisted.

    CG Bench Press, 4x4 35x2 lbs. BB
    Dip Machine, 4x4, 150 lbs.
    Forearm Curls, 4x4, 80 lbs.

    I'm assuming that with creatine, it will take awhile for my creatine levels to get to the point where I am giving myself that boost.

    Might be Tuesday or Wednesday before I hit my chest and back.

    RR Arms

    Arms - RR

    Alternating Hammer Curls, 4x12, 30 lbs. DB
    Concentration Curls, 4x12, 30-25 lbs. DB
    Forward Grip Chin Ups, 4x12, 77-72% lbs.

    I'm using an assisted chinup/dip machine. From a chart, you are able to determine what % of your weight you are lifting. I figure keeping track of it like this, rather than as -50 or -40 is easier.

    CG Bench Press, 4x12 75 lbs. BB
    Abs - Crunches
    Dip Machine, 4x12, 105 lbs.
    Forearm Curls, 4x12, 60 lbs.
    Abs - Leg Lifts

    My weight was 173.8 Lbs. this morning.

    c_n,

    right or wrong I only take the creatine on workout days . But I workout in one form or another 6 days a week so its almost like taking it everyday anyway ! LOL

    I just saw an assisted chin/dip machine the other day. Interesting machine .

    Dropped the weights on his head

    Well Deadly13, what I think, is that you need to learn how to spell, and that you need to learn how to post in the appropriate forums.

    Abs: Leg Lifts

    One week or so on creatine. Bit more of a pump, and 1.5 lbs. weight gain in 1.5 weeks ain't bad. I still need to measure my BF; I'm carrying around more fat in my gut, lower back and 'tits,' than I'd like to. A slack diet has a lot to do with that, I am sure.

    Three weeks on Creatine now - the last two taking 5 g every day. I've gained about 5 lbs. and a bit more of a 'pump.' Of course, I also switched my routine around at the same time, so it's hard to say...

    3.5 lbs / month sounds great to me! I've gained 30 lbs. since last September, and it hasn't been as lean a gain as I would have liked. So, I need to minimize my cake, I am afraid. My weight goals are modest --> 180 lbs. by year end, with a long-term goal of 190 by the end of 05.

    Arms - Power

    Weight 175.1 lbs.

    Alternating Hammer Curls, 4x4, 50-45 lbs. DB
    Concentration Curls, 4x4, 40 lbs. DB
    Forward Grip Chin Ups, 4x4, 88%

    CG Bench Press, 4x4 45x2 lbs. BB
    Dip Machine, 4x4, 180 lbs.
    Forearm Curls, 4x4, 70 lbs.

    I think that some excercises lend themselves better to RR-P than others. With the forearm curls, I find that there isn't a lot of difference between RR and P, and that form is more important than weight. I also 'feel' that this is a excercise that I should go slow on.

    Back and Chest - Power

    Weighed in at 175.2 Lbs.

    Deadlifts, 45 lbs. x 2 BB, 4x4
    One-armed row, 80-75 lbs. DB, 4x4
    Flat Bench, 80 lbs. DB, 3x4
    Abs: Crunches
    Decline Bench, 75 lbs x 2 BB, 3x4
    Incline Bench, 75 lbs. DB, 3x4
    Abs: Knee Lifts
    Dips (Assisted), 90+%? lbs., 4x5

    I'll have to see if they have a normal dip bar, as I think that for the Power session, I am ready to leave the assisted machine. I took the pin out today, but it still defaults to assist you a bit. No idea how much that bit is. 20 lbs = 88% of your body weight, so I must be at 90%+ now.

    Legs and Shoulders - Power

    Weight stayed constant at 175.1 lbs.

    Hack Squat, 80 lbs x 2, 4x4
    Leg Press, 115 lbs x 2, 4x4
    Calf Press, 115 lbs x 2, 4x4
    Abs - crunches, 2x35
    Upright Rows, 100 lbs BB, 4x4
    Shrugs, 70 lbs. DB, 4 x4

    I feel like dumb-bell shrugs are another excercise that isn't going to lend itself to Power. I feel as though my form is suffering by going that heavy, and I find it a bit awkward. Perhaps there is another variation of shrugs that would fit better, but trying for my max on this one doesn't feel right.

    Military Press (HS), 80-70 lbs x 2, 4x4
    Abs - Obliques

    I'm back to RR Arms tomorrow morning.
