Thanks for the reassurance. Randy Pfft. That little bitch can't detour me from eating my favorite food! Squat/DL DE: Box Squats 165 x 2 165 x 2 165 x 2 165 x 2 175 x 2 175 x 2 175 x 2 175 x 2 Good Mornings 195 x 6 195 x 6 195 x 6 Hyperextensions 85 x 12 85 x 12 85 x 12 SLDLs 305 x 4 305 x 4 305 x 4 Leg Press 360 x 8 360 x 8 360 x 8 Everything looked really good again today. I was locking out with insane speed once my hips, hamstrings, and gluts took over the brunt of the work from my erector spinae on the box squats. Accessory work all progressed nicely. I felt like going real heavy with the SLDLs, and that was definitely my favorite set. I can't believe my grip held up; that surprised me the most. I've decided to remove the calf work for more quad work because the plyometrics seem to smash my calves hard. I'm not sure I've ever completed a working set on the leg press before, but the weight seemed decent. I'm sure it will get up there in no time. Meal1 4 egg whites, 1 egg, 1/2 cup flax cereal, 1/2 cup 2% milk, 1 cup orange/tangerine juice, 20G brewer's yeast, multivitamin/mineral, vitamin C Meal2 trioplex bar Meal3 2 slices WW bread, 2 TBS PB, 1 1/2 cup 2% milk, cucumber Meal4 - PWO 1 cup oats, 1 1/2 scoops whey, 1/2 cup 2% milk Meal5 kang talay (shrimp, scallops, calamari, green curry sauce, veggies), white rice Snack 1 scoop whey, 1 cup 2% milk Meal6 turkey breast, potato salad, 5 deviled eggs Meal7 can tuna, 2oz chicken breast, 2 TBS safflower mayo, 1 1/2 WW pita, celery Meal8 1 cup 2% cottage cheese, 2 TBS PB I packed down a couple of good cheats today. I was going to eat sushi, but the place we always go to for sushi closed down. I was so sad. I've known the owner for 10+ years (I first ate sushi at like age 8), and he is a really nice guy. It's been a while since I've been due to money constraints. Oh well. We look for other sushi places, but they were all closed until 5, and my brother needed to get to work. So, we just stumbled into a random Thai restaurant. Next to sushi, I think Thai is my favorite kind of food. Their sauces are coconut milk based. Mmmm... |

I tried some good mornings yesterday and they felt awsome can't wait to pack some decent weight on em soon. Yea those leg presses will def. be going up of if ya stick with em....with your strength you will be adding a ton of weight in no time. That sux about the sushi place bro...I use to have one close to me--all you can eat--but it closed down. Maybe across the ocean they can't eat as much sushi as us americans b/c they always go out of buisness LOL. |

Thanks man. DeadBolt Good mornings are really great. I'm going to have to incorporate them as an ME lift more often. It comes highly recommended by Dave Tate. I hope I hit your previous numbers soon enough. I think I will, I just haven't directly trained my quads in a while. I feel it's worthwhile though, even though they aren't a great contributor in PL squats. BulkMeUp You might be surprised. I start deadlifting 135, but I increased that weight very quickly. Various forms of the deadlift are now one of my best lifts. It used to be my bench press. |

Callisthenics
Warm-up 100 Jumping Jacks Rest ~ 30 Seconds Plyometrics Jump Squats x 30 Clap Pushups x 15 Distance Skips x 25 Rest ~1 Minute Muscular Endurance Squats x 35 Pushups x 20 Bicycle Crunches x 50 Chinups x 10 Rest ~1 Minute Sprints Suicides x 1 Cool-down Full body stretching My circuit program is getting easier already. I give it only a few more sessions before I increase the numbers all around. The one exception is the suicides. I can't remain at a very brisk pace for those. I'm still out of breath by the time I do them. That's fine though. They are really just to finish me off at the end. I'm thinking of implementing some rock climbers in their place sometimes. Meal1 4 egg whites, 1 egg, 1/2 cup flax cereal, 1/2 cup 2% milk, 1 cup orange/tangerine juice, 20G brewer's yeast, multivitamin/mineral, vitamin C Meal2 - PWO 1 cup oats, 2 scoops whey Meal3 2 slices WW bread, 2 TBS PB, 2 scoops egg protein, cucumber Meal4 trioplex bar Meal5 can tuna, 2oz chicken breast, 2 TBS safflower mayo, 1 1/2 WW pitas, celery Meal6 tin sardines, 3oz chicken breast, 6oz sweet potatoes & hulled barley, 20G olive oil dressing & golden flax seed, lettuce, tomato Snack 1 cup 2% milk, 1 scoop whey Meal7 1 cup 2% cottage cheese, 2 TBS PB |

Saturday, December 4th
Bench Press DE:
Bench Press - Alternating Grips 145 x 3 145 x 3 145 x 3 145 x 3 145 x 3 145 x 3 145 x 3 145 x 3 Bent DB Rows @ 90 75 x 9 75 x 9 75 x 9 Wide Chinups 25 x 4 25 x 4 25 x 4 DB Press 65 x 12 65 x 12 65 x 10 Incilne Press @ 45 155 x 5 155 x 5 155 x 5 The workout went well today. I discovered that it is a little more comfortable for me to do wide chinups if I go a few inches in (Just inside the handles; I touch the metal only), although it is still way beyond a doorway, and my lats still get torn up. Also, I meant to try for 6 reps on the incline press. I'm not sure I would've had it, but I believe so. I've got a rep goal to reach on the DB press now, although that is significantly improved over last week. I think I'm going to progress the weights throughout the DE routine next time. I'll use everything from 40-70% of my 1RM, or something like that. Same deal for the squat. I'm going to continue like that for a few weeks. Meal1 4 egg whites, 1 egg, 1/2 cup flax cereal, 1/2 cup 2% milk, 1 cup apple juice, 20G brewer's yeast, multivitamin/mineral, vitamin C Meal2 trioplex bar Meal3 2 slices WW bread, 2 TBS PB, 1 1/2 cup 2% milk, cucumber Meal4 - PWO 1 cup oats, 2 scoops whey Meal5 can tuna, 2oz chicken breast, 2 TBS safflower mayo, 1 1/2 WW pita, celery Meal6 tin sardines, 3 oz chicken breast, 6oz hulled barley, 20G olive oil dressing & golden flax seed, lettuce, tomato Snack 2 small glasses 1% milk (2 cups est.) Meal7 1 cup 2% cottage cheese, 2 TBS PB |

BulkMeUp Mine are only an inch or so larger then yours. Strength will come in time...build them up and really concentrate on them. I learned to love working legs and I got much stronger mentaly I guess....when ya hate doing them they will never progress.
Cow Awsome lifts man...diet is looking good to. Yea those GM's felt great I can't believe I haven't done them sooner! Those quads will def catch up soon...one day you will just go from one extreme to the other. I notice I grow in spurts with my legs...they stay level or slightly increase for a while then out of no where they just explode and the strength is out of the roof. |

Hey CP, nice journal in here. Been doing Westside for about 2 months now is that right?!? Looks like you've made some pretty solid gains. I didn't read the WHOLE journal, I'll just jump in here. Are you planning on competing or anything?

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

I'm sure I will see good strength gains with my quadriceps, but I'm not really worried about it. For the time being, my concern is increasing my core lifts. Thanks for the vote of confidence though. rock4832 Nah, I don't plan on competing. To be honest, I have always enjoyed the strength gains more than the mass gains due to resistance training. I was focused more on gaining mass for a little while simply because I went on a crash diet, lost muscle, and got too skinny. I am pretty comfortable with my physique at the moment. More mass is welcome, but Westside is perfectly capable of adding mass to my frame while maximizing strength gains. Thanks for stopping by. |

Makes sense. Have you been doing Westside with no injuries or tendonitis developing?

Sunday, December 5th
A day of rest today. Ah, that extra sleep felt so good! I got about 8.5 hours of sleep, which is just perfect. I took a 15 minute power nap during my break at work today too, just for the Hell of it. It was my reward for finishing as much homework as I did during the first 30 minutes of my break.
