Hey Guys, I've been around the website now for a few months, and i have decided to start my own journal. I feel My workouts are intense and can be beneficial to other members as they have benefitted myself. I plan to give a daily update of my workout and diet as well as my reactions to my workouts. I hope that people follow but i am mainly doing this to track my own progress.

Well today I sat home and watched the broncos get pumbled by the steelers and study my ass off for my mid-terms starting tomorrow...Usually i have my "leg" day on either saturday or sunday depending on my basketball schedule.
My Schedule:
Monday:Back
Tuesday:Shoulders
Thursday: Chest
Friday:Arms
Sat/Sun: Legs
Right Now i am just maintaining my weight and eating about 5 meals a day. I take in roughly 2 gals of water a day. I am 190lbs at 11% Bf. I have never taken and phs/steroids and do not plan to.
I plan to max out in a few months but as of now here are some of my lifts.
Bench: 225 x 8
Squat: between 425-460 on my last set for about 5
(sidenote) Legs are probably my strongest aspect as of now. I love doing legs and they continue to get stronger. I need strong legs as i will be playing College football in the fall.
DL:375 x 5 on my last set
I will post measurements and pictures in the future but all i have is a camera phone right now to post with...so the picture quality sucks... :(
Okay well i have mid - terms tomorrow morning, then an afternoon lift, followed by a basketball game at 6:30. I will Post tomorrow night. :)
