yeah, that is good. If you have ever read supertraining siff goes through a laundry list of variables that can be altered it isn't even funny. All those things that you are talking about are what I use to vary my programs too.

Looking awesome DD. You'll have to take me through detail on your new routine. I'd appreciate it.

Spring training starts a week after Monday. I'm defitently focused at the moment. I'm thinking about starting a new journal to define my new workout variables and track my diet as well as field work. I'll only do it if there's an interest involved, because otherwise there's no need for me to spend my time working on it online. I'm worried about my coach trying to get me to workout like a nut, but he's a nice guy who respects me so maybe that won't be an issue.

Ditto, post the journal DD. There have got to be many young IM'ers that would love to see what kind of regimen a DIV 1A football player is subjected to. Me included . I see what your concern is though. I doubt if most strength coaches are into HIT. Who knows though. You've been doing HIT for so long, maybe a higher volume wo would be a good thing for you, at least for pre-season.

Okay, so I've been off this forum for a while. Basically an obsession with cars (as well as school) & my new job serving patrons of a restaurant in Riverside has kept me somewhat away from the internet in terms of discussion.

P.S. I noticed in the 2005 Members Awards list I was listed as biggest hater nominee. This is why I've avoided this place, somewhat.

In any case, I've started dieting again and trying to get back to my old levels of strength, so I'll be using this as a crutch to stabilize my behaviors.

Thanks!

For reference, my routine is modified every 4 weeks (except for my legs). I work out 2-3 times per week with 2 sets per exercise and varying rests between each sets. The duration between exercises is not timed.

Today my diet has been good and I'm just about a week into it. I am running as well 2-3 times a week. I sprint 1/5 of a mile up hill, and previous to that I jog at a fast pace. The entirety of the run is .8 miles so feel free to do the math if you want to know how long I jog.

My current bodyweight is a chunky 240 pounds. I'm looking for 228 in the next 2 months.

Here's a picture that was taken about a week ago, right before the diet. It'll have to suffice as my "before" picture.

I think he's doing well, we're both pretty busy and don't talk so much anymore. This used to be the place we'd correspond with each other, but since this place has gone to ad hominem hell we've avoided it...

How about you?

Excellent! Lead me to some pictures of yourself, I haven't been here in a while and don't know where to find them.

Mid day update:
Breakfast:
Apple (including seeds)
Cup of Coffee
Crackers & P.B.
Cup of O.J. (6 ounces)

Lunch:
Sandwhich meat
Grain bread
Corn chips (8) with Guacamole

I'll be at work from 4:30-9:30 & will probably eat some snapper or salmon for lunch with vegetables & rice.

I like Mentzer, but I think he was off in most of his analysis. His 10-15 day rests are just really bad ideas IMO.
