Today was a killer day for me. I was up at 7:30am...in gym by 8am for 1 hour of cardio on empty stomach. Ran a bunch of errands...tanning, laundry, dry cleaners, etc etc....back in gym by 2. Lifted...did another 20 minutes of cardio. Off to job hunting and firehouse meeting the rest of the night. About to leave and 6 friends show up at the firehouse...just got home at 3am. Dam hella long day.

For those of you who don't know I had torn my left cuff about a year ago and never treully rehabbed it. Over time I adjusted my benching to really screw things up. My right shoulder would bare all the weight b/c my left would buckle in b/c it couldn't handle the stress. I never realized it until last week. So now I am forcing my form with light weight and reps....it sure is killer to be starting benchign all over again from scratch. I feel like a pansy strugling w/ 135 but its all for the better.
The new form is great but I won't be progressing very fast...I'm taking this one VERY slow. I don't plan on going much higher then 135 until after the comp date.
Workout was good but the lack of carbs really shows. One set I would be super strong and the next I had no steam left. If you noticed I either went lighter on the second or third set or went heavier with a drastic drop in reps. Sunday I went no carbs for fun and saturday I had no carbs past noon....so I was workin on a pear this entire weekend LOL. It was good though.
yeah buddy- take it easy on the shoulder..
I really dinked up tendon or something in my arms..and I was outta commission for a couple months...I still baby my biceps workouts...don't wanna reinjure them...

Hell no...I have been out for stupidity way to much. I am learning to play it safe and put my ego aside while I perfect my body. I figure in a few months once my shoulders even out some I'll gradually increase the weight but defenitly still going to take my benching very slow from here on out. But I also can't wait untile I start my bulk either...this low carb dieting shit sux LOL. I really wan't just some pure strength and mass right now.
Yo B oddest thing happened today. We were talking so much about security jobs and bouncers yesterday...today a guy told my to stop by the race track by me and apply for a security position. I thought of you right away LOL. I doubt I'll get the job but I thought it was kewl he mentioned it at such an odd time....
what kind of race track?
think we are saying the same thing...take it easy on the muslces until all is well..then 'get er done!"
about to post my workout from today...did bb mil press..was disappointed w/ weight...but first time I did bb in a long time..
Good boy on the lookin after your shoulder Da Riss is proud of ya
Only do no carbs rarely, its a good shock for your system but too much of it would screw with your muscle.
Burner Heya man! Yea I am definitely babying it this time and going slowly as you said. Hey don???t sweat the milt presses???if it???s the first time in a while it will always be low???.just think on your bad day its always better then my good day LOLOL
Riss Thanks for the visit pete???Yea that???s the only reason I did a no carb. Simply to shock my body???I don???t do them often b/c I hate carbing up. Makes me feel like binging again and screws the whole cycle up.
Gary Good to see ya bud. I think I have turned into a cardio nut. I try and do it every waking moment LOL. I am going to be purchasing a punching bag soon so I can mess around at the firehouse some heh. GW don???t you worry your doing fine on what your doing???the weights and body speak for themselves LOL.
Basie I told ya its gonna get crazy???gonna have to kick it into overdrive to keep up. I got the taste of blood and I want the whole kill now heh. I have really started to enjoy cardio now so I want to do more of it. Thanks for stopping in.
Today is leg day...going to be late actually lol...but I had to post. I enjoy leg days alot...maybe b/c I don't need to do cardio today I don't know.
Pictures will be coming soon, trying to get ahold of a camera again. And I will post about the bullshit with nutraplanet after my w/o. This ones a real pain in the ass...enough to ruin my w/o!
Shit sounds like a plan to me. They were never my strong point...I think after I screw up my cuff early in my career it turned me off from em lol.
Cardio...please I'll get ya runnin a damn marathon. I can get people to do alot more then they though in the gym....and when I'm lucky in the sack LOL.
Today was a damn shitty day. Woke up an hour late...went ot take a shower and the hot water heater broke....took an ICE COLD shower...found out my order to nutra planet was cancled and they wont get back to me. I was ready to kill someone before I got to the gym!!!

***Went very deep here...felt good.
It was a good workout. I went for some higher reps on most and my heart was racing the entire w/o. Legs were shot after this w/o LOL. Nothing else to report I don't think....everything is pretty basic. Just another cold shitty day by me.
Also working on revising my diet and lowering the cals just slightly. Not sure exactly what I'm going to do yet. So I am currently 170lbs @ 12% body fat. This would mean I have an additional 20lbs of fat in me. I'll be happy if I drop another 10 LOL. I am currently taking in roughly 2300 calories. I think its time to drop that some more. I figured 400 calories isn't to bad for now then in a little bit I guess I'll drop it more.
So lets say I take in 1900 calories.
380 cals a meal roughly.
950 prot = 240g's protein
380 carbs = 95g's carb
570 fats = 64g's fat
I have one little issue here though. I made up a meal plan but the calories don't match with the amounts of food that they should. Each meal has the right amount of overall calories but it doesn't have the proper macros. Here is what I came up with.
*what I should have*..........*what I'm missing*
950 prot = 240g's protein
380 carbs = 95g's carb.........-15g's carb
570 fats = 64g's fat.............-16g's fat
The calories just don't match up! LOL I will also be posting this in the diet/nutrition forum. Any suggestions on what to do?? This is based on roughly 11 calories per lb of body weight.
dam...my water heater broke in the summer..thankfully..and it still sucked to take a cold shower...
I bet I'd weigh about 170 - 175 if I were at 10% BF...dare to dream.
I used to run. My best was 5 miles in just under 38minutes. (I also weighed all of 168lbs too..)
Don't drop your cals too low...

Yea you should experience it in the winter.....it blows!!!! Any colder the shower would have been spitting ice LOL.
Well get that diet in check and come down to 10%...I dare you!
I don't think I'm dropping it to much...I'm just lowering it little by little. My progress has pretty much stopped so I figured it was time to lower it some. I was using the same macros as when I first started...9lbs heavier.
This isn't living my man...this is torture. Some days I don't mind at all and kinda enjoy it but the days I crave carbs it KILLS me! I just keep thinking a few more weeks....a few more weeks.
