5/27 legs

Wow, I am really tired now!! I have been really busy training people and haven't been getting enough sleep at all (5hrs average). Being in a caloric defecit realy compounds the problem. My training partner bailed on the workout to go play basketball so i had to push ahead alone. I didn't go to failure on any of the exercises and the weights are pretty submaximal. The only highlight was that I got yelled at by one of my powerlifting freinds who saw me front squating. The reason he was yelling was becuase instead of front squating the bb'er way (bar across shoulders arms crossed around it) I was front squating with the bar in the rack position (olympic style). He comes over......"Patty, what the hell are you doing?"...."I'm front squating. I am tired of doing it the stupid bb'er way. I hate training like this. I'd rather do it the real way and go olympic stlye."...then the yelling began "What the f*ck is wrong with you? Are you stupid? You are 4 weeks form contest and you are going to change something like that in your routine and risk some sort of injury. You could fuck your wrist up. You are all depleted. Why change your routine around now!! I think your brain is depleted." So I went back to fornt squating the other way. I think he was also mad because the warm up sets there was no power rack avaliable so I warmed up by cleaning the weight and then front squating, which probably isn't the best idea given the state that I am in. Oh well.....I am a jackass. :-/

superset
a) front squat 205x6x3
b) trap bar deadlift 315x6x3

The weights are light, I know. But I didn't do high reps because I wanted to make sure I would be able to get constant reps through each set and mny rest interval was short too. These were tiring!!

unilateral leg press (weight doesn't include leg press sled)
270x10x4

seated leg curls
215x10
215x8x2

standing unilateral cable hip extension
plate#5x15
plate#6x15
plate#7x15

superset
a) leg press calf raises (weight doesn't include the leg press sled)
360x15x5
b) seated calf raises 160x8, 135x10x4

stretching at the end.

As of right now I am defenitly going!! If I don't go I will send you somemore candy corn for sure.:thumb:
 
Patrick...You'll be there! Lots of changes happen in the last four weeks. You'll hit a point where it just seems to fall off. Your doing awesome!
 
Holy cow. Just finished posing and working on my routine. I am posing to the staind song "so far away". Man I am sweating like crazy right now!
 
Jodi, one more thing. I remember when you were dieting for your ompetition and TP maybe you drop protein shakes around 2 ir 3 weeks out. Why was that? Is that something that you recommend doing? What did you eat post workout then? Tuna?
 
Very good articles Jodi. I printed them. :D

Patrick...the shakes can make you hold added water that should be expelled. I would follow your advisor and what they have you do as to when to drop them.

Layne is great. You should see his pics over at Avant :eek: He's competing again in 3 weeks I believe.

The shake thing was something I didn't know about either. When I competed last year, TP had me cut out shakes a few weeks before hand.

I have no advisor...lol, I am my own advisor and have never competed before. that is why I am asking so many questions.

So, I read the article, It was really informative. Is there anything I should be doing now (4 weeks away) to prepare for that final week??
 
When do you start your sodium loading? I hope I'm saying that right. The idea being you're dehydrating yourself but not at a cellular level.

I sound like a bafoon here. I have to ask another BB friend what he was doing and what he called it.
 
From what I've read, the body has to work harder to digest real food than shakes, thereby giving you a metabolic advantage.. *I think* :p
 
Just keep your water intake at 6L until its time to drop it. 4 weeks out, just get ready to prepare and know exactly what you are going to do. I would create a guidline for yourself as to what you are going to do. Type it in here and we can help you. Don't worry Funky ;)

Okay, good idea.:)

6L huh...On most days I get 2 gallons (8L). Should I lay off a bit then?

Ok...I normally cut shakes one week out and switch to real foods. (current diet has me on no shakes)
Drink on average 1.5 to 2 gallons up to the time where your suppose to cut. You shouldn't cut water until the last few days out, normally. If you cut it too soon, it will counter act on you making you hold it instead of expelling it.
 
No, 6L is just the min., IMO! Keep your water up for now.

Cool, thanks. I will try and drop my shakes 1-2 weeks away. I know what happens if you drop water to soon so I am not going to do anyhting crazy like that. Any other tips that may help me look a little better (I am going to need it :gosh: )

I do my cardio at the gym. I hate it eiter way. Inside or out. Three and a half weeks left to go.

Well, my modem at my apt. broke so I have to waite for the cable co. to come and give me a new one on wed. so I wont update my journal until then.
 
Okay, finally got my CPU fixed. I don't really feel like posting my workouts form the past two days unless anyone really wants to see them? I am jsut so tired.

Three and a half more weeks to go. I am getting pretty excited!! I have been super strict and haven't cheated at all. I went to a barbeque this past friday at a friends and watched everyone eat pasta, burgers, hotdogs, cake..etc....I brought my own boiled chicken and veggies and flax though. Everyone was amazed at my will power. I can;t waite until I am done with this contest!!

Glad to see everythings still on track!
