![]() And congrats on becomming a mod! Quote:
My guess is it is the lateral ligament that 'slips' out of place. I havent done any extra work with this full body wo. What would you suggest to include in this full body routine? But i now seem to have an elbow prob. This pain is right in the joint. I suspect it is due to not so good from on the lying db tri extns. ![]() I'm getting old and falling apart! ![]() Last edited by BulkMeUp : 02-25-2006 at 09:00 AM. |

Weekday training = 2480 (x2) Weekday cardio = 1740 (x3) Weekend training = 2060 (x1) Weekend off = 1620 (x1) Daily average = 1980 (previous average 2200) Only carbs have been dropped from most meals except PWO shake remains unchanged at 440cals. Let me know if that dosent look right. Last edited by BulkMeUp : 02-25-2006 at 09:04 AM. |

weight/bf
14-Jan-2006 162.8 16.0% 136.8 26.0 35"
21-Jan-2006 163.4 15.0% 138.9 24.5 35.25" 28-Jan-2006 163.6 15.0% 139.1 24.5 35.25" 4-Feb-2006 161.6 15.0% 137.4 24.2 34.80" 11-Feb-2006 162.2 15.0% 137.9 24.3 34.80" 18-Feb-2006 162.6 15.0% 138.2 24.4 34.5" 25-Feb-2006 162.8 14.0% 140.0 22.8 34.5" Soo... my weight went up .... again! ![]() Yes, my bf did fall 1%, but i would take that with a big grain of salt as today was the first day it showed up at 14% (I'v been monititoring it everyday for the past 2 weeks). I will believe that it has really dropped if it holds at 14% until next week. This is end of week 7 and no major change. So i shall start cycling cals. Just baught another bottle of glucosamine recently and came accross this link posted by P-Funk ![]() Last edited by BulkMeUp : 02-25-2006 at 09:32 AM. |

Adrian don't you measure BF with one of those scales??
Personally .. if you do I'd pay no atention to what it has to say and go with measurments / mirror. |

If you look at your waist measurement and your lean mass/fat mass etc then you can see that you are clearly making gains - your waist has come down, your lean mass is up and your fat mass is down... Have you looked into getting some calipers? |

.. i havent. I always heard that the scales are ok to keep track of changes. But i see your point. I shall get some calipers.I like this Fat Track Pro one. But maybe it is overkill. Maybe this FatTrack II Digital Body Fat Caliper is what i need... hmmm which one should i get? ![]() |

Full Body2 C - 25Feb06 (week 7)
leg press - wu 180x8, 270x6 - 390x8,8,8
DB Incline Press - wu 35x8, 45x6 - 60x8,8,6 Med Grip Pull ups - bw+20x7,7,7 EZ BB preachers SS DB Overhead Tri extns - 60x12/65x12, 60x12/65x12, 60x12/65x12 Bench Dips - bw+25x12,8 + Chest Dips bw+45x12 Weighted Leg Raises - 15x10,10,10 Leg press - Got to max rr with all clean reps and no little rest pauses that i usually do ![]() Incline - -1 rep on the 3rd set. Been dangling at this weight/reps for a few weeks now. Pull Ups - +1 rep on all sets and with my chin above the bar for all reps. I'm sure i can max out next week. Preachers SS Tri Extns - surprised at these. After ups and downs for some weeks, managed to bang out all reps to max rr for both exercises. Wil up weight next week. May have been the seat height that i adjusted.Weighted leg raises - +1 rep on 1st set and +2 on the 2nd and 3rd set. No big improvement here as this is what i did during week 2 & 3 of this routine ![]() |

Cardio - 27Feb06
Equip - Ellipitical
Warm up - 4mins @30-40rpm/level 1 Cardio - 30min@55-60rpm/Level 3 Cool down - 4 mins @30rpm/Level 1 Went up one level as of today. Dont think this cardio is doing much in terms of bf loss. I dont wake up the next morning any lighter or it maybe too gradual to tell.I baught the regular calipers. I'll do a 3 point test only as a 7point test would require me to be a contortionist or find someone willing to pinch my skin. Will post results sometime this week as per directions on the exrx site. |

Full Body2 A - 28Feb06 (week 8)
Sumo DL's - wu 185x8, 225x6 - 280x8,7,7
BB Decline Press - wu 115x8, 135x6 - 180x8,7,5 HS Low lat Pulls - 270x8,8,8 Lying DB Tri Extns SS DB Curls- 30x8/35x11, 30x6/35x10, 30x7/35x8 Chest Dips - bw+25x11,10,9 Crunches - bwx20,15,14 DL's - +1rep on the first set. Decline - +1rep on the first set, but -1 on the 3rd set. HS Lat pulls - Weight up by 20lbs and got to max rr. Will increase weight next week but only by 10lbs. Tris SS Bis - +1rep for the 3rd set on tri extns. -1rep on 1st set +2 rep on 2nd set for curls. Dips - +1rep on 1st set only. Crunches - same as last time. Wasnt feeling too enthuastic for this session. Wasnt feeling tired or out of energy, just a bit off mood. During the last week i A)finished Tri-Malate Creatine and switched to CEE B) dropped cals by 10% + cal cycling C) this is the 8th week of training. So it could be one or a combination of all those or, hopefully, it is just a passing phase. ![]() -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Scrubs There is a bird flying inside the hospital. Dr.Kelso is annoyed and is trying to explain to the janitor that it is a health hazard while Dr.Cox slides up behind him Dr.Kelso to Janitor: "Do you know what is the number one killer in hospitals?" Dr.Coz: "Your breath?" Dr.Kelso (igoring Dr.Cox) to Janitor: "Germs! .. Do you know what spreads germs?" Dr.Cox: "Your breath!" Dr.Kelso: "No! .. and that does not even make sense!" ![]() |

Count the calories from your PWO shake (all calories are created equal )...So say you pick 2000 as your 'medium' (just to make the maths easier) then 10-15% either way means: 2200-2300 ish on your workout days 1700-1800 ish calories from your rest days Cardio only days (depening on intensity) would fall somewhere in the middle. And alter your carbs/fat ratio for these days too - workouts higher, rest days lower, cardio either low or middle... |

Another quick question. I bookmarked a post (oats and mass) from you about pwo shake. I have adjusted the macros as you suggested in that post. Would it be better to drop the dextrose for a cut or it dosent matter? Last edited by BulkMeUp : 03-02-2006 at 11:26 AM. |

But don't just rely on it as a sole carb source.... eg: Banana, milk and dex would be a pretty good combination if you could manage it... |

Start icing that elbow, try to go easy on it, cut out any exercises that bother it. Take some time off if need be. |

Weight/BF
14-Jan-2006 162.8 16.0% 136.8 26.0 35"
21-Jan-2006 163.4 15.0% 138.9 24.5 35.25" 28-Jan-2006 163.6 15.0% 139.1 24.5 35.25" 4-Feb-2006 161.6 15.0% 137.4 24.2 34.80" 11-Feb-2006 162.2 15.0% 137.9 24.3 34.80" 18-Feb-2006 162.6 15.0% 138.2 24.4 34.5" 25-Feb-2006 162.8 14.0% 140.0 22.8 34.5" 4-Mar-2006 159.4 14.0% 137.1 22.3 34.10" Made changes last weekend as well as worked the carb cycle diet during the week and implemented it on thursday. Big scary drop in weight. Not good! But i'll monitor it for a few days and see how it goes. On second thoughts, comparing 4mar with 4feb, i have the same lbm but less fat and waist measurements. So thats encouraging. Cal cycle diet is: Daily Average Total cals 1929 Times per lb of LBM 13.84 Times per lb of total weight 11.91 Might increase cals a bit if weight loss is too rapid. Did the caliper bf calc today. It worked out to be 14.51% I think i still need to get used to using it as yesterday it was 13.5% But eitherway not to far off from my bf scale. Looks like bfmight very well be 14% now as per the bf scale since it showed as 14% everyday for the past week except for last sunday. |
