Only had time to look briefly at your eating logs, in general just eat more.

Try to aim for 1.5 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight. People say that is meant to be optimal.

Also switch the simple carbs (white bread/rice) for complex (brown bread/rice).

Otherwise, you've got the right idea so just keep it up.

Eggs and wheat bread is fine, if you have the time to make eggs. I could never eat eggs while I was in school because I didnt have the time in the morning. Try and get yourself used to eating 3-4 eggs, and continue to increase it if you can.

maybe add 2 oz. of ham or canadian bacon with it. Not only does it taste good with the eggs but it adds in some protein. Could possibly add in some cheese if you need to add more calories. You monitoring your weight every week?

Well to start things off, I weighed in at 128.6lbs this morning. So i gained about .6lbs last week. meh, w/e it's not like I'm in a rush i guess.

** NOTES FOR THE DAY: Well i only got about 5 and a half hours of sleep last night because i stayed up kinda late last night doing some cardio with my gf, if you catch mah drift. ( no e-brag =/ ) Also, I can honestly say that today's workout was the toughest that i've gone through since starting my journey. I was dizzy for about half of the time, and i almost passed out near the end, but I managed to pull through and finish what i set out to do, and I'm proud of myself for that.

Without further ado, here's today's log:

Looks like calories are lower than you were having them in the first week. Was your whole last week around 1700 each day?

You labeled todays workout as December 22 :p
Looks like you are improving on your numbers on each lift which is good keep up that good work.

Looks like you train your abs todays in a row and then have that off for the rest of the week might wanna look into that? Also you train your biceps the day after back. If it works for ya keep at it but usually people don't train their bi's the day after back because they are also used when performing back.

Hah i fixed the date.

Actually, i got 2700-2800 every day last week except for Sunday (i slacked off).
I only have 1700 cals today so far, gonna aim for 2900 before bed.
Yeah i know i'm trying to find a way to fix the abs problem because it feels kinda weird working them 2 days in a row and taking the week off. Might switch up my routine in a couple of weeks and i'll keep the back/bi thing in mind, but it's working for me right now but i'll def. look into it.

Thanks for the adv.

EDIT: Another note, I went to the ****ing grocery store today to pick up some yogurt and mixed nuts. And to my surprise, the cocksuckers didn't have either. I'm so pissed... i was really in the mood for yogurt tonight.-_- and I take honey roasted nuts to school everyday so I'll have nothing to snack on at school tommorrow.

yes mad..

Haha yeah i have a digital scale & i weigh myself like 3-4 times just to make sure.

I used to take cottage cheese a couple weeks ago but i can't stomach it anymore. Now i take a shake with 1-2 cups of milk, half a scoop of casein protein, and 1-2 tbsp of peanut butter. That good, you think? What're the benefits of cottage cheese?

Lol my dad just came into my room and told me that it's not safe to gain weight at this rate. I was all "**** outta my sight". lol just kidding i'm too nice and didn't want to hurt his feelings.

Did you eat it plain or mix it with anything? It has casein protein in it, which if you're taking casein protein that's good too.

Cottage cheese + PB = much less disgusting tasting pre-bed meal.

Like gainweightnow said, it's just good because it has casein protein in it, if you're drinking milk and taking casein powder then ehh you're probably getting enough. Just be aware of it as another option if you run out of milk/powder.

Is there any reason which would justify you only gaining .6lbs last week? If there isnt then you'll probably need to crank up the cals to ~3k. I've been owned this past week and lost .5kg from this stupid ****ing cold that I've now had for 4 days :(

Also, nice gains on the lifts. You should be making PRs, at least on the big compound lifts, every workout for a while when you can still reap the benefits of noob gains.

So ya, just keep it up. Post some progress pics sometime if you can.

I have no idea why i gained so little last week. :/ Maybe too much basketball on the weekend.

I was thinking about taking pics but i dont think 3.6lbs will really make a diff. I will definately take pics after 6 weeks though.

I like the idea of not doing biceps after Back day, and not doing abs two days in a row.

About your new routine. One thing you might end up switching Monday and Tuesday, MIGHT being the main word. Maybe not. But if when you get to your chest day and your shoulders are still sore it might limit you a little and might need more rest. Give it a try, see how you like it.

You could also try training each muscle 2x a week. Experiment. Everyone is different. Different things work for different people. Your just starting early so you have a lot of time to find what works for you.

I weighed in at 130.4lbs this morning.

Good work on making progress on your squat.

How much harder does adding 5lbs each workout feel? When I was beginning to squat I probably didn't push myself to gain as much as I could each workout, so if you don't feel almost completely ****ed at the end of your squat sets, maybe try to increase more than 5lbs for the next workout. I don't know what kind of increments American bb plates go up in, so it might be too awkward to increase more than 5lbs a week. Something to think about anyway.

FurkinBeast

02-02-2009, 02:57 PM

Yeah, i think i can go heavier for squats but for some reason i'm not pushing too much to up my weight in it too fast... dunno why.

Today i had gym class at school and had to take two tests.

1.) Dips - I did 10/10, got a prefect score.. it was a breeze but i forgot to warm up and it kinda hurt my shoulder.

2.) Crunches - I did 100/100. This was stupid imo.. ****in gym teacher think crunches are like the best exercise ever.

And then i played some basketball so Yeah i'm pretty tired right now, i took ah 45 minute nap when i got home but it made me feel even more tired.

Oh well, off to workout. [I changed my routine this week, btw]

Actually i weighed myself this morning and i'm currently at 132lbs.

About 7lbs in 6 weeks? That decent progress, you think?

Infusco

02-02-2009, 07:21 PM

Yeah, that's great progress. Also at that rate of weight gain you shouldn't have put on much fat?

You'll eventually stop getting noob gains, and when that happens you'll have to make sure that your diet and lifting is perfect to keep gaining weight at the same/similar rate. As I'm sure you've heard, it's very easy to increase weight/strength regardless of what your training/nutrition is like in your first few months of lifting. It's after that period that training and nutrition become even more important. Everything you're doing looks solid enough that you should still make gains even after your body has become used to weight training though.

So yeah, good job.

I had gym class today.... AGAIN..

I had to do 10 pullups and then played basketball for about 40 minutes.

Will all this cardio in the morning + weights in the evening affect my progress?

Or will it be okay as long as i eat extra cals...

Whether it affects your gains or not is just simple maths.

If your maintenance caloric intake is 2500 cals, and you eat 2700, yet you burn 300 through playing basketball, then you will be in a caloric deficit. Which is bad.

Obviously all made up numbers, but just make a point to be eating extra on the days that you have to play basketball.

Nice job on the bench PR, especially if you were sick.

I'm about to go work my chest in 2 hours, while being partially sick as well :(

Hopefully I'm recovered enough to still get a decent workout though.

Good luck breh. If i can do it you can too.

Thanks.

I lift alone because i workout at home. [by dad invested in a little gym at home, he stopped working out after 1 month *facepalm*] Sometimes i wish i'd have a spotter so i could push myself harder on Bench Press and do Incline Barbell BP, because i cant lift it up without a spotter on the incline for some reason, it's at a weird angle..

Oh well, i feel like a partner would hold me back at times. How about you?

I lift alone in my basement lol. I've had multiple workout partners but they usually end up just wanting to stand around and talk or not push each other harder. I find I can do better on my own lol. No one that I know is really dedicated or sticks with it.

why are you getting such little sleep?! :p

FurkinBeast

02-16-2009, 06:42 PM

I wouldn't be upset with losing .5lb from being sick. That's not too bad for being sick and not being able to eat properly.

Luckily the last couple of times I've been sick I've managed to maintain my appetite. Sickness induced fasting = death for ectomorphs.

In regards to your back day, is there any particular reason why you don't have deadlifts at the start of your workout? I do them first on my back day because they're the most draining but also probably most important lift I do on that day. You might be able to pull a bit more if you're doing them first.

Heh, that's pretty much why i do them almost last. They drain me way too much for the rest of my workout. I used to do them second and they always took alot out of me. So i moved them near the end? Is this bad? =/

why are you getting such little sleep?! :p

Hah, stayed up with my gf for a while.

Lol, i'm always like "I need to get alot of sleep now that i'm working out alot!"

and then she goes "Is it more important than me?"

then i choke :P

But i dont worry too much about it because i rarely ever allow myself to get less than 6 and a half to 7 hrs of sleep.

Ehh it's just personal preference really. I place more value on deadlift's than my other back exercises so I place them at the start so that I can pull the most weight on them. Nothing is as epic as heavy ****ing deadlifts :D

It's lifting more on deadlifts vs. lifting more on other lifts.

Maybe switch between having deadlifts first and then not first, that way you can have days where you're able to pull PRs on deads and then other days you won't be too exhausted to do the rest of your workout. Could be a good compromise.

It's up to you of course though.

looking good in here you swole-ass 133lb-er.

If I can make a suggestion. Next time doing traps try going to maybe 30 or 40 lb. DB's and see how many you can do with that. Seems like you're sticking with 20's and just increasing reps. 18 is pretty high.

Also you can do shrugs with a BB.

I was vomiting like crazy today and i had to go to the doctor's.

Yea i got some medication for the pain and stuff and he says i cant workout until monday... -_- wtf.

He also told my mom that i couldn't eat anything today except maybe some soup... and also to eat very light saturday and sunday, and that i can't drink any milk or shakes.. So i cant work legs today.. i'm pissed.

So i probably wont gain any weight again this week. Times like these make i feel like to just give up on fkin' bodybuilding...

FurkinBeast

02-22-2009, 01:23 PM

I had to go to the doctor's again yesterday night because i was having crazy muscle spasms or sumthing like that due to medication i was taking.

At this point im just thinking of starting a cut this week and go back down to about 126lbs @ like 11-12% BF. When i first started i was about 125lbs 14-15% BF. Im thinking of just losing most of my BF and start bulking clean from that point. Any advice or suggestions on this guys? Im not sure if its a great idea.

02-22-2009, 08:13 PM

Do you feel like you're getting fat?

Infusco

02-23-2009, 12:00 AM

The problem with cutting is that if say it takes you 4 weeks to cut down to what you want, then that's 4 weeks where it's unlikely you'll be able to increase your lifts when this is the stage of your lifting life when you want to be able to make a strong base.

So in my opinion, dont cut yet. Firstly because you can't be that fat at your height/weight, and then because it'll jeopardise the whole noob gains thing.

The basic principle of the bulk/cut idealology is short term pain for long term gain. You will be slightly fatter (pain, if you actually care) but you will most likely gain more muscle/strength because of all the food you're eating. In your case, I'd say the gain far outweighs the pain. I'm not saying clean bulking is a bad idea obviously, it's just that getting your lifts up is more important.

It already sounds like you do a fair bit of cardio with playing basketball so much, so doesn't that keep your fat gains in check a bit? You could always just do a bit of low-intensity cardio after workouts.

Clean bulking's still a good idea, just not yet imo.

/my opinion.

FurkinBeast

02-23-2009, 04:42 PM

Ty guys, i think i'll stick to bulking for about several more months. (3-4 good?) I wasn't really trying to make too much improvements today, cause I'm just starting to get my energy back and wasn't feeling in top condition today. Went okay, except for the damn hammer curls.

thanks bro..

well i dont have any school today so i slept in a bit late (woke up bout 10:30)

I'll get my workout in early, probably in like 2 hours. I only got like 5hrs of sleep last night.. fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...

On a brighter note, woke up at 126.7 this morning. sweett

wait wut?

typo or did you somehow lose like 5-6lbs?

and lol, 5 hours sleep as a result of the gf again?

to avoid having 3 questions and nothing else in this response, here is a statement.

Haha it was a typo.

I meant to put 132.7.. i dunno how i ended up putting 126.

No it wasn't her lol, but last night it was! read story below. =]

I got 5 hrs of sleep again tonight.
It was her birthday today and i told her i was going to call her this morning to wish her a happy birthday. I had trouble dropping asleep last night and finally fell asleep about 11:30. She called me at 12AM for me to wish her happy birthday. Call lasted like 2 minutes, i tried to go back to sleep but for some reason i couldnt and ended up dropping asleep like 2AM. I was pissed but i didn't really want to tell her anything because it's her bday. lol.. i was seriously pissed though.

EDIT: I get really paranoid about these sorts of crap, i feel like i wont gain anything on my back / bicep this week due to lack of sleep. This isn't true right? lol I hope it doesnt affect my workout too bad today.

When you only get 5 hours sleep try to have naps during the day. At least that way you can kind of add on to the 5 hours. It's not great, but it's better than just not having any more than 5 hours sleep.

well I'm pretty sure your date is off for today's workout :p

But it might be because you train your shoulders before chest. Not sure if your shoulders were still sore today but your shoulders do come into play when bench pressing.

Also got measuring tape. If i did this right, i have:

03-22-2009, 07:25 PM

well 11-13 sounds more accurate than 15-16 like before :p

is the waist around the belly button?
All measurements flexed?

No actually they're all unflexed. I measured my waist right below my hip bone, about 2-3 inches under my belly button.

I'm thinking of starting a timed carb diet this week. Eating only fats and protein for breakfast and lunch, light carbs before workout at about 4PM, most of my daily carbs in a post workout shake, and a normal carb'd meal at about 7:30PM. And then going back to eating only fats and protein til i go to bed at about 11.

Also, i would eat very minimal carbs on off days, and have 1 (maybe 2) regular carb days each week.

I'm thinkin this would help me minimize fat gains while bulking. My size will go up slower but it should be mostly lean. Good idea? not sure..

If you feel like being complicated, give it a shot and see how it goes. Only you'll be able to work out whether or not it works for you, or if you just get all depressed on carb-depletion and don't feel like existing lol.

You can go to yesterday's date in my Food Log and check it out. I was tired as fk when i came back so i decided to workout this morning instead. Trip was fun as **** though. lol I took some video's.

At least that's one good part of today's workout. My shoulders seem to feel extremely drained after bench press. Which is what kind of messes up my militaries, any advice on how to keep less strain on my shoulder?

Try searching up some videos on youtube. I had the same problem before, I'd feel it more in my shoulders than my chest. You need to isolate the chest as much as possible.

Or is 5g too little to change anything?

Pretty sure my ON Whey has 5g of BCAAs. I think you used ON too for a bit?

I'm pretty unaware of BCAAs, but seeing as you've changed protein powders it couldn't hurt to add them to the one you're using now if it doesnt already have it in it.

Bump up weight on the rows if you werent already going to. Being able to get 9 reps is high enough, move up weight and work up from 6 or whatever your reps will drop to.

And congrats on the green, it looks weird not seeing red next to your name :D

I was boxing today with one of my friend's and i split my gum. =[ Hah.

I also did like..

2 reps of 100lb squats, like 5 dips, 10 pushups, 2 reps of 100lbs bench, & 2 reps of 140lb deadlifts.

I didn't rlly want to do anything because it was an off-day and i'm rlly tired. So yeah i was just messing around a bit because my other friends were working out and i was bored.

It isn't really gonna hamper my recovery right? I get really paranoid about the slightest stuff, lol.

Yeah I really doubt it'd affect recovery, there'd probably be instances where you'd exert yourself as much as that by just doing everyday **** like carrying boxes or whatever. Still, you should try to keep rest days as rest days not as passthetimebyliftingweights days.

Depends a bit on how many rest days you have. I started kickboxing last month so my week looks like:

monday: kb
tuesday: lift
wednesday: lift
thursday: kb
friday: lift
saturday: lift
sunday: rest

So needless to say I virtually avoid all form of movement on Sundays. If you have 2-3 complete rest days a week, then minorly exerting yourself on one of those days hardly matters.

Notes: Got in a morning workout again today after a 500cal breakfast and some caffeine. I prefer morning over evening, i'll miss morning workouts when school starts again. -_-

Also, i've increased cals this week to 2900 on days, 2700 off days. From the 2800 on days, 2500 off days that i used to do. Reason is that i've been at the same weight for the past couple weeks. Even though i appear to be getting leaner.. I want to build some damn mass. lol Will increase again next week if i need to.

P.S. I'm still on spread for both of you guys who've been helping me.

I want to start doing boxing-type training such as Jump Rope + Heavy bag work for atleast half an hour 2 times a week. Im really not sure how to incorporate this into my training. =/ Do i just do it in the afternoon and add about 200-300cals to my daily intake?

I heard that doing cardio in the morning while taking aminos burns bodyfat and spares muscle but i also heard that it is extremely rare to lose BF while bulking. (It is either one or the other) If so it would be possible to just do this and then eat my normal above-maintenance calories during the day. But i'm guessing this wont work..

So yeah, any advice you more-knowledgeable brehs?

How many off-days do you have?

Like I said in a post above somewhere I do kickboxing on two of my off-days and there's no way I could handle the physical stress of lifting and doing kickboxing training in the same day. Although, my kickboxing training does go for an hour and a half, so maybe you could do half an hour on lifting days.

Would you have the energy to do boxing cardio after you lift? The advantage of you doing it then is that most of the glycogen stores in your muscles are depleted from lifting so your body has to use alternate energy sources, being fat (oversimplification but I think it's along those lines).

If you are going to be doing cardio, make sure you calculate it into your cals for the day. Seeing as you are bulking, you never want to let your cals fall below maintenance obviously. See if you're able to cut any fat by still eating the same x number of cals over your maintenance but just by adding cardio. If you aren't losing fat by doing these boxing sessions twice a week, it should at least keep your fat under control so that you can focus on gaining mass.

nice squats, looks like you could afford to keep going for +5lbs per w/o for a while yet.

****, i did SLDLs for the first time yesterday along with lying leg curls because i realised i'd been neglecting my hamstrings. hamstrings = dead right now. still, it's better than quad doms because i can actually walk semi-properly at the moment.

how'd eating low carbs go? did it make much difference on your fattiness?

Actually i felt sloppier. My muscles felt looser/smaller (lolwtf?), and my fat remained pretty much the same and i gained no weight at all after 4 weeks of it. Dont think it's for me, lol.

Posting today's workout in a minute!
