So, now I can do deadlifts against bands without taking 20 minutes to set it up. I have no idea where it came from. I don't know if the gym bought it, or if someone brought it in... I just hope it sticks around. Last edited by Seanp156 : 02-16-2009 at 07:15 PM. |

Is it a full size cambered bar, or an EZ curl bar? The problem with a full size is there's a glute ham raise machine, and a preacher curl station right next to the hyper, so there's no room for using a full sized bar. Then, an EZ curl bar is very awkward to hold on my back, and I think holding it in my elbows would hit the handles/pegs of the hyper station. I wish they'd move the hyper so I could use a full sized bar.

I was just wondering if you still have the same diet plan and what you look like from it? It says you have 11 photos but when i go to look at them it says there not found. I even tried two different explorers.
Pretty much I am asking are you bulked from this diet plan or ripped? From reading it sounds like you have come pretty far. Matt |

I'm definitely "bulked" at this point... I'm somewhere around 210lbs in the morning, and a rough estimate I would say around 18% bodyfat. I'm just trying to finish getting to 220 at this point, stay there a few months getting stronger, then cut any/all junk from the diet. At that point I'll probably lose 5-10lbs, then I'll decrease calories until I'm 195-200 or so.
Of course, it never fails... I'm sick again, the 2nd time in 5 or 6 weeks. I was planning to start with ME Squat tomorrow, but I'm running a temp of 100.5 with body aches, chills, and a cough, so likely I won't be training this week at all unless I make a miraculous recovery. |

Hope you get better it sucks knowing you could work out and your sick and can't. What sucks more is trying to workout when you are sick, i have did that before and it sucks bad. You go in and put your norm warmup on the bar and its like your 3 rep max lol. Matt |

That diet on the first page is from almost 4 years ago
. So, it's quite a bit different now. My main diet's pretty healthy with oatmeal, egg whites, cottage cheese, chicken, steak fish, brown rice, barley, veggies, salad, almonds, flax oil, olive oil, etc but lately I haven't hesitated to eat some junk food to get some extra calories in.Generally I don't train when I'm sick anymore. I tried it a few times, and always just ended up feeling worse a few hours after, and the next day, though while I'm working out I actually feel better. |

First day training for a while... I'm still half-sick, but I'm better, about 70-80% normal. Mostly a cough and sore throat now. I have lost a decent amount of weight, regrettably... Sunday to Wednesday I probably ate 1/3 of the normal calories I have per day. Bodyweight after squats today was 205lbs, usually it's 209-213lbs.

I thought I'd do 4x6 @ 225 today to ease myself back into things, but 4x5 was hard enough, guess I'm still weak from being sick.

Thanks. Yeah it's too bad that one was blocked, it was probably the best set. Oh well, I'm not really mad at him, I kind of know him. He just wasn't aware the camera was there.
