yup. that's exactly what I'm planning on doing. I'm currently dropping some bf so I won't be able to try it out for at least a couple of months.

LAM, could you list what a typical diet might look like for a day? I'm curious how you divide up your calories/macros throughout the day.

lets see right now this is pretty much it:

Meal #1 Pre-WO - 45 grams whey & 1 cup oats
Post WO - 25 grams WPI, 8 oz water, 8 oz orange/banana juice, 1 scoop gatorade mix, 1 banana
Meal #2 - tuna salad, couple of strawberries, 6 grams fish oil caps
Meal #3 - 6 oz chicken breast, 1 cup cooked red lentils, 1 cup brocolli
Meal #4 - 6 oz ground sirloin, 1 cup of oats or lentils, veggies
Meal #5 - 6 oz of fish or beef, mixed green salad, veggies
Meal #6 - 45 grams WPC, 18 oz whole milk, 6 grams fish oil caps

* right now my goal is to lose a little bf so I'm basically doing 3 meals of protein/carbs and 3 meals of protein/fats

* IMO, my caloric intake is low for most my size. my activity level during the day is about nill. most of my time is spent either on the phone or PC

Quads & Hammies : 03-02-05

Decided to do GVT for at least the next 6 weeks while i'm losing some bf. this will make training easier for a while so I can concentrate on som work projects. I'm going to train with weights every other day and will alternate exercises for each time a train a body part. So this week I used Hacks as my quad dominant exercise so next week I'll use the Leg Press, and repeat.

* 15 minutes ligh-cardio on treadmill

Quads

Hack Squat - 275x10x10

Hammies

Lying Leg Curl - 75x10x10

* 15 minutes light-cardio on the treadmill

* 20 minutes stretching

IMO the hardest part of GVT is having is sticking to the 60 sec rest period inbetween sets. after about 5 sets you definetly want a longer rest period.

BW - 250 @ 11%. I'm shooting for 240 @ 7% by mid April

I'm doing GVT right now, my main goal for the next couple of months is to lose some body fat and increase muscular endurance. this will prepare me for my next powerbuilding phase in the middle of the summer.

so far so good. leg press was a little easy today so I will have to increase my weight on that exercise. my main focuse for the next couple of months is to increase my endurance and flexibility. I used to be able to do full splits w/o even being warmed up. I need to get back to that point.

yup. I'm going to make some mods to some of the training sessions. Like when I do back I'll do 5x10 or BB rows then like 5x10 of pulldowns to the front, etc. I'll do the same thing to other body parts I just haven't come up with the full plan yet.
