Fight club body pics every major change

[Brutus_G]

Hey all I've just gotten into body building seriously and decided to start a journal and save myself paper(I hate writing my shit down on paper but have till now). The plan of attack is to get to 145 and keep to 6-8% body fat then cut to maybe 4% then gain more lean muscle till i get to 160 then revalue myself.
Goals-
*Get to 145 pounds
*stay lean
*give my workouts a 100% effort
*stay happy and positive
*never stop striving for improvement
*get bigger shoulders
*get bigger chest
*get bigger thighs 18.5 inches
I will post pics if i feel I've had a good deal of improvement this could be 1 week or 4 but no longer than a month. My current stats are
Weight 136 (battled a eating disorder i used to be 140 5% but i just kept cutting till i got to 122 yea. but I'm over it and am glad to be around others like myself, we do what it takes and more to get lean or gain muscle.)
suprailliac-1.5-2 mm
chest-1.5-2 mm
Bench 140 my chest is very strong squat 135 dead lift no clue don't have enough weight at home lol.
Current training is
Mon-chest,tris,and forearms 30mins mod inten cardio after weights
tues-off
wed-quads,lats,and forearms 30mins mod inten cardio after weights
Thurs-off
Fri-calf's,bis,and shoulders 30mins mod inten cardio after weights
sat-lower back,traps,up abs very heavy weights 30mins mod inten cardio after weights
sun-off
I stretch full body everyday and if very sore do light weights with whatever muscle.

30 mins of moderate intensity cardio after each weight session. i get 3.2-3.3grams per kg of bodyweight in protein, always get 30% fat and rest is in carbs for workout days. As for why it's like that on off days you'll have to ask chuck . 1Kg= 2.2 pounds

[JLB001]

I think I would go batty if I weighed and did my bodyfat every day.

 

[Brutus_G]

It helps me and allows me to not revert back to my eating disorder. By seeing I'm gaining muscle. It may seem stressful but for me it prevents stress. On a happier note I'm feeling strong. Also could you please tell me how to post a pic from a camera? lol i know pathetic.

[Tom_B]

I have pics of me at 122 and 136 when someone tells me how to post them i will.

Quote a post, then under 'additonal options' click manage attachments. then browse , get your pic and upload it. (The picture may be to big so you'll have to resize it in Paint).

 

[Brutus_G]

bow: Thank you. You are my hero. It says the image is to big is there a way to downsize it in paint? first two are at 122 the 2nd two are at 136 I'm 138.8 now. For the leg Nazis i will have some up soon

 

[Tom_B]

Ya my pics are usually always too big .. so what I do is I double click on the picture, and chose the 'edit' button thing which takes me into paint. Then at the top Choose 'Image' And then 'Sketch/Skew' and from there play around with the Horizontal and Vertical Stretch until your pic is resized properly. Then just re-save it.

Hope that made sense LOL sorry I'm really bad at computers.

 

[Brutus_G]

Thank you so much.

[Brutus_G]

I'm also taking Saturday off i awoke on Friday to find the best constructed and hardest leaning tower of Pisa staring back at me and today the same (OK maybe it's a Little immature but i like to be honest and well i feel great and have noticed every hot girl in my school on Friday.) My t levels are up i feel it I've gained weight very quickly on the 2 days off more than normal. I still feel sore as a %*)*%!@. No matter what i will be back in the gym by monday.

 

[Brutus_G]

Man today felt great it was a real challenge.

[Brutus_G]

weight=145.5 goal met but I'm not even slightly surprised by this. By the way I'm still very sore in my lats and arms. I switched my lifting schedule around some for a change. My legs and triceps are a little sore. I will go back to squats finally and get really fucking sore. My new goal is to get to 160 no cut. I will then cut at 160 to 155 or so. I'll post the pick of me at 145.6 on the front page. My bad i cant

 

[Brutus_G]

The first pick is at 122 just a comparision for you guys.
Man today i felt a rip in my hams not like a big muscle tear but i felt the tearing that's how intense today was. man green tea before a workout really helps!

Leg raises hanging from a bar no weightX 12 10 10 damn i could flex really well after that.I finished early so CrunchesX 16 16 i was very shaky in the abs and lower back after this one and well i hope i fell the doms tomorrow. Of course 30 mins on the stepper i read during these.
Cals=3800 20%p 50%c 30%f Chuck may be changing it soon
The one body part i really feel exceptionally proud of is my legs this might explain why leg day is my favorite day. I will be adding extra volume to my quad ham chest and shoulder workouts. I will remove bicep curls and forearm curls reverse or normal so i can fit this extra volume in i want to make mainly these body parts bigger but i will work other body parts like traps, biceps on back work, back upper and lower, triceps, forearms get worked almost evry workout,glutes on ham and lower back workouts, and calves. If i missed anything you get the idea. I will make it a point to take weeks off. I may even workout twice a day with the second session just light pump weights. If i feel overtrained i will take a week off. Lets see how this goes shall we?

 

[Brutus_G]

My mom had to help me get the weight on my back i don't have a squat rack only a bench,barbell,and dumbbells lol i find it funny. Cg bench board presses 99X 12 10 9 man this was hard. Step ups i wish i could've done them on a steel box 2 feet in height but i compromised and used my door step 99X21 21 this is really 21 21 21 21 but i only did 2 sets of 21 for each leg. I really feel the extend helped and i feel so much better after my workout. that said it tastes ok but it's not grape soda. This stuff like the creatine really makes a difference!

 

[Brutus_G]

workout has changed cause after Reading iron man's ideas and then reading and rereading cow pimp's sticky on a split i think this should work best. Oh i also stole an idea or to from beast and Layne my heroes.
Mon-legs,chest/triceps,and shoulders Heavy day to fail(3-5 reps 10-5 sets
Tues-off
weds-hams/lower back,calf's,and lats/bis heavy day to fail
Thurs-off
Fri-legs,chest/Tris,and shoulders light(reps 10-20 3-5 sets) not to fail
sat-hams/lower back,calf's,and lats/bis light not to fail
sun-off
Off and on days i stretch each body part and some core ones. 30 mins of cardio follows every workout at a moderate intensity i will be sipping bcaas Thur my whole workout to prevent metabolism. I take creatine right after my workout is done with food and my antioxidants.

 

[Brutus_G]
