what kind of competition? fitness/figure/bodybuilding?

Current 1 Rep Maxes:
Squat: 130 lbs - Bench Press: 95 lbs - Deadlift: 175 lbs

katt

I want to stay away from figure/fitness if at all possible. I will attempt bb if I get enough size on my legs... that's my weak point right now.

katt

You think it would be different for me?

katt

Tonight was 30 minutes cardio on the incline treadmill & abs

ball crunches 1x20, 1x10, 1x8
reverse crunch 1x15, 2x12
hanging knee raises (supported) 2x15

my ab strength sucks

Thanks BB!

Ok, so while this is my first time at this, and I really don't know what to expect.. I'm starting on my 3rd week, my weight is up 5 pounds, I'm at 139 right now, but mirror wise, I am thinking I look leaner than when I started. I'm wondering if I still need to increase the calories....its really confusing

Today's wo
Hammer Strength Press (70) 1x9 (90) 1x8 (110) 1x6
DB Lateral Raise (single arm) (20) 1x8 (22.5) 1x8 (25) 1x8
Cable front raise (20 ea side) 1x10 (30) 1x8 (40) 1x7
Rev flys on the pec dec (50) 1x8 (60) 1x8 (70) 1x6

Hyper extensions (25 lb plate) 3x15
Shrugs on the Forza Machine (140) 1x10 (180) 1x8 (230) 1x4 (200) 1x4
my last two sets of shrugs were no rest, I did the 4 reps then dropped the weight and did another 4..

Again, all my sets today were PR's, although I didn't put it down. No cardio tonight - tomorrow is legs

Cals for today 1943 40% protein/41% carb/ 19% fat

Well, yesterday when I was driving home, it was so incredibly hot, I decided to stop by 7-11 for a slurpee...(I love them).. so I got a huge one, half with crystal light raspberry,,, and came home. Decided to look up exactly how many calories are in those things....600 whopping calories!! I guess those will be few & far between... good thing I'm trying to put on weight right now But - I got on the scale this morning and I was two pounds down..

Today was a U Tube day at the gym... my husbands last set of front squats, the bar was slipping, and we didn't have the saftey bars in place so in an attempt of my trying to help, we both went down on our asses!

Today the front squats took forever!! It was a good 25-30 minutes before we were done, which only left 15-20 minutes left. But I looked back in our book when we did them last, and my ending weight was 85 lbs.. so that's good! We'll have to go back tonight to finish hams.

katt

Thanks Sammy.... I love the front squats now! Better feel in the glutes when you go way down

You do a husband and wife workout?! That's so damn cool!

Oh, and next time bring a video camera.

katt

uh.... I didn't do one a couple months ago, not that I can remember anyway!

I was talking about this one probably - it got pushed back a few weeks

katt

It's good - he hasn't pissed me off enough to not workout with him..

Uh yeah,, I'll remember that video camera

Double D

Awww that was it then. I remember you talking about it, I just thought you went ahead with it.

Bakerboy

katt, I see you're kicking some major ass on those front squats!! Way to go!
