Well 12 inches in a foot and 3 feet in a yard so mark it off like that. if your feet are 12 inches then mark off 60 feet.

In the middle of final exams before my summer break begins, but in the mean time, I was able to dumbell press 80lb dumbells 5 times, which is a personal record, and has been going up by at least one rep each week. Should be interesting to see what effect that has on my max bench.

By my experience I wasnt able to DB bench alot until I actually started DB benching.

Well, to update, I was able to front squat 205, and I've been able to do 6 reps of 80 lbs on the DB Bench! Lets see if I can get past 175 on the incline bench.

Just about time to get away from westside for a while if you ask me. Give your joints a break otherwise you may wish you did once you get older. I would say make another program that lasts about 2-3 months and then come back to it.

Just need a general idea, but what type of program would you recommend after doing the westside, for someone who's bulking?

The other thing, has the following happend to anybody? I'm trying to bulk, and I've been upping my diet consistantly, but after a while, I stopped gaining weight. Then, for a period of a few days, I was out of town, partying a little, but not getting the kinda calories I was. After I got back to the regular diet, my weight returned to normal, but then started going up big time. Anyone experience anything like that?

I havent. Hard to tell. Normally after drinking your weight is down a bit because of being dehydrated.

As far as a program goes, whats your overall goal, strength?

**motionman04** · 05-24-2007, 01:55 AM

yep, my overall goal would be strength

I would say still back off and do more tension work for a while. Rep ranges around 5-8 or so. Or maybe pyramid from 10-6 or so?
