Destroy & Rebuild

...The Journey...

Intro:
Greetings to those that know me and those that don't...

I have been around the boards for a while and have done several logs here and there always keeping track of my progress. In fact, I always have a notebook with me that I have all my workouts, meals, supps, and just thoughts/comments from that general workout. It is a big collection of what has been working for me and what hasn't. Hell, I guess that is one of the major battles to win though. Knowing what works for you and what doesn't.

I played football throughout high school so I have always been introduced to the weights early. I lifted off and on throughout college...however I got lazy started gaining weight fast (got up to around 230s) but hey that's what late night parties, alcohol, and terrible eating habits will do. It was college though... Regardless I cut back down and thought I would be ok doing nothing and low and behold I was right back where I came from.

I have been lifting weights very seriously for the past two years. In December 2006 when I graduated undergrad, I weighed in at a whaling 280. I was disgusted with myself and wanted to make a change. That next day, I emptied out my fridge and started up on a clean cutting diet that I researched online. After being on the diet for 2 weeks, I started up at a local gym that New Years and haven't set the weights down since. In fact, I get upset if I miss either a workout or a meal. I truly believe I am one of the hardest working people in the gym. I have caught the bug so to speak and have been going hard at it ever since. I did a dirty bulk last fall which was disturbing and downright not the way for me. I cut all spring and got down to a very lean 188-189.

Since then I have been clean bulking and am very happy with the results thus far. My short term goal would be to finish this bulk at around 225-230 and then cut down to see what I have earned. I have recognized my weak points, my arms, my quads/hams, and my back. I have been busting ass to bring these areas up. I have also been working on increasing my bench, squat, and dead lifts as well. My current PRs on those three are 320 (Bench); 415 (Deads); 405x8 (Squats). I can't remember if I got more than that on squats or not, I may have gotten it 10, but it doesn't matter. I just want to progress and push myself beyond this.

I will be posting whatever I think is relevant to me achieving these goals from my workouts, my thoughts, my diet, my supps, what I think is working, what I don't think is working and so forth.

I hope you all enjoy the ride.

Other Information About My Routine:
I will be working abs three times during the week, typically M,W,F. I try to hit the upper, lower, and obliques all with a variation of either a lot of reps or heavy weight with a variety of exercises. I will also be performing light cardio throughout the week as I see fit... most the time only one to two days. I will also be attempting to perform forearms at least twice a week as well. Typically, Tuesday and Fridays. As far as the exercises go, I am on a 5 day split working on bringing up my arms, legs, and back. I will be varying the exercises as I see fit and attacking different areas based on how I am feeling that day. Some workouts may be abbreviated due to schedule, timing, conflicts. For those workouts, I will attack 'em with the same mentality as balls to the wall. My rest periods will be VERY brief and I will be attacking the weights with a lot of super sets, drop sets, forced reps, partial reps, pre exhaust, circuit training, and any other techniques I see fit.


Current Supplements I'm Taking:
Universal Torrent (Post Workout); Cytosport Musclemilk; Universal Real Gains; Cytosport Complete Whey; GNC Melatonin; 8Ball Nutrition Herculin CNO-3 (Pre)

*I just ran out of my Universal Uni-Livers... I am going to be adding some new goodies to the bunch very shortly.*


Example of Daily Diet:
Meal 1: 4-6 eggs; 1.5 cups of oats; 3 slices turkey bacon
Meal 2: Natty Peanut Butter and Jelly whole wheat sandwich w/ milk
Meal 3: Grilled Chicken/Tuna/Steak w/ veggies and whole grain rice/bread
Meal 4: Real Gains Shake w/ milk
Meal 5: Same as Meal 3
Meal 6: Bedtime Shake (Whey; Cassein; Natty PB; Milk)
Meal 7 (If Needed): Protein shake w/ natty PB and oats
Water: 2-2.5 gallons on training days; 1 gallon on off days

*Typically I aim for high protein and good clean carbs throughout the day. On the weekends, I generally have one or two "cheat" meals that are more loaded with protein than anything else. This has been working for me thus far.*

DESTROY AND REBUILD
By destroy and rebuild, I am simply defining the concepts to me that are important to growth. I must destroy the weak version of myself and rebuild to become the bigger, stronger, faster version. To upgrade my physique to my liking.. increasing muscle mass... gaining strength...becoming a force to be reckoned with. I am going to make it...

I went to the Doctor today for a paper work session... officially weighed in at: 209. I am 5'11.5.. they said I was so close to 6... ::sigh:: Also I will be taking some progress pictures Monday and measurements as well to better track my progress.

With that said I bring you my workouts from today. I hit up a double session to allow me to take off this weekend. Technically though I will not be taking off this weekend, as I have to move all of my belongings from VA to NC. That in itself is like a form of cardio/lifting. Enough chatter... time to get to business...

Session Uno. 8:30 AM

Target Group: (Delts)
Performed in: 38 minutes...Even Lee Priest would be sweating his ass off

Delts
Seated Smith Machine Militarys: 3x10 (I didn't go higher than 165 on these, but kept the rest periods down to maybe 20 seconds at most)

Seated Smith Machine BTN Press: 3x10 (135) Just went right into these after the militarys... If I said my delts were on fire here then that would not be giving the sensation I was feeling justice.

Arnold Presses: 3x10 (45; 50; 55)
*SUPERSET*
Bentover Raises: 3x15 (Used an Incline Bench to really focus on these)

Cable Side Raises: 3x12
*SUPERSET*
Cable Front Raises: 3x12



Session Dos. 1:45 PM

Target Group: (Arms/ Forearms/ Abs)

*SUPERSET*
V-Bar Pushdowns: 3x15 (Stack)

Weighted Bench Dips: 3x6 (w/ 45 lbs; w/ 45 and a quarter; w/ 2 45s) After completing the 6 reps I would drop the weight and do BW till failure

One Arm Cable Preacher Curl: 3x8 These royally whooped my ass... forced myself through the last few reps of the last sets

Todays Diet:
Meal: Herculin (Pre) / Torrent (Post)
Meal: 3 egg whites; 1 whole egg; 2 cups of oats w/ lil honey; 3 slices Turkey Bacon
Meal: Natty PB&J whole wheat sandwich w/ milk
Meal: Herculin (Pre) / Real Gains w/ creatine, ice, natty PB, 1 graham cracker (Post)
Meal: 1/2 lb Ground Beef; 2 slices whole wheat bread
Meal: Roasted Chicken whole wheat sub w/ lettuce, onions
Meal: Bed time Shake
Aqua: 2 to 2.5 gallons


Thoughts:
-Today's delt workout was killer... my delts were pumped instantly and I could easily feel the blood rushing to them. Great shoulder workout indeed...
-At the Doctor, they couldn't fit my arm in the regular cuff to take your blood pressure.. I guess that means my arms are definitely growing. For those that don't know my stubborn T-Rex arms hardly ever satisfy me. I am glad they are getting with the program.
-The arm/ab workout really took a lot out of me. I have been following a Get Big Arms routine from a MuscleMag I picked up. It is 6 weeks long... I figure what the hell and let's see if it actually helps. I am in week 2 on it.
-Interested to see how my forearms are adapting to the work I am hitting them with. I have hit them twice this week.. I feel my grip is also increasing as well.
-Got a lot of questions/comments while at the Doctor's office today from people in the waiting room, random strangers, nurses, doctors asking if I played football or lifted a lot of weights. I have never had so much attention drawn to me... felt damn good. I know how Arnold must have felt when he said he uses his muscles as a conversation piece. Regardless, I don't think I am any where close to where I want to be. It was nice to have the little progress I have made be reinforced though.
-Got a busy weekend of moving... I will be resting/recovering all weekend... can't wait.
-At least I got one BBer following me along... hopefully more join up...

Weekend.
This weekend I actually had a three day rest break to recover/recoup. Felt great and very much needed after that double session on Thursday. I felt my arms being sore all the way until today. Hopefully this means I am growing. My legs have also recovered with the 9+ hours of good quality sleep the past two nights. I spent all day Saturday driving up to VA and moving all my crap out of my apartment and back down to NC. I just transferred law schools so I have a lot of adjusting to get ready for at the new school.

I also got two new fish for my fish tank since all my other ones were non existent after exams and moving. I got two oscars (one tiger and one albino).. they are white and black and I call them "Salt and Pepper."

Food wise, I ate high protein the majority of the weekend, it wasn't the cleanest but it definitely wasn't the worst. Had some Buffalo as well which was delicious. Loaded up on groceries and am ready for the week ahead. I also have word that my Super Pump 250 will be here Monday. Can't wait to try out those new flavors.

All in all, a lazy yet productive weekend of moving, re-arranging my current room, getting some new fish, and resting/recovering all day. Hope everyone else had a great weekend.

I will try and get some measurements up Monday or Tuesday as well as a current progress picture. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday.

Progress Picture.

Comments.
I took all these measurements/pic after breakfast, cold no pre-pump. I am still not 100% accurate with these results but they are a starting block. Last time I measured was around a month ago. I have had some minimal change, but change none the less. I guess doing a little cardio here and there has helped bring my waist down some from the previous time. I am guessing the increase in neck was from a little less than ideal weekend eating on the road from Grundy to back here. Happy as a pig in **** to see my arms moving... wish my forearms would do the same. My thighs are coming along as well. I wasn't sure if you measure them up high or down low so I just opted for the middle. Up high they were at least 25. My chest and shoulders have had minimal change which can be expected as I haven't hit the shoulders as hard and my chest had a piss poor session not too long ago. Looking to just blast through that session this week though. All in all, I am pleased with how I measured in. The picture I felt a little heavy after eating a steak omelet with 2 cups of oats but damn it was good. Glad to see some progress.

Target Group (Back/ Biceps/ Abs)

*...I went in there today with two choices, either back or chest. To be brutally honest, I did not trust myself to do chest after that piss poor session last week at the start of the week. Instead I decided to blast my back and just leave it all in there. Looking forward to tomorrow's chest day already. I will be doing my abs right before I go into work, so in about thirty minutes. Nothing but lotta reps this week in the ab department. Had a solid weekend and lots of good rest and food. I am moved all the way back home and looking forward to Wake in August. Two more years till freedom. I felt super strong on rack pulls today...it is coming along nicely. I definitely feel like my back is starting to get in a good groove as well...*

Target Group (Chest/ Triceps)

*...For those that don't know me, I am what you might call a flat bench addict. That's right I am constantly striving to push as much as I can on the flat bench and keep those #s growing. I am one of a dying breed as many people opt out for DBs and don't fool with the bench press. However, I have had insane results from using the flat bench and will continue to use it in efforts to grow. Due to last week's debacle though I have been reconsidering my chest training as I feel I maxed out on the pyramid style benching and I wasn't getting enough incline work. My new chest work will consist of 3 sets of 10 on flat bench and 5 sets of 5 reps on Incline. I felt it today. My back is tight as hell from yesterday still. With all this said, I banged out a solid chest workout that left me feeling proud and forgetting that terrible session I had last week...*


Solid ass Day:
Performed in: 56 minutes

Sets x Reps (Weight)

BB Flat Bench: 1x10 (245); 1x8..REST PAUSE..1x3 (255); 1x4..REST PAUSE..1x2..REST PAUSE...1x2..REST PAUSE..1x2 (265) Had to get all 10 reps, w/o a spotter is the reason for all the rest pauses.. no forced reps boo!
*SUPERSET*
BB Incline Bench: 5x5 (185; 185; 195; 205; 225) This superset had my chest so massive looking it was ridiculous.. I just wanted to flex in the mirror all day...haha

Decline DB Flys: 3x12 (35) I did the Ferrigno twist at the end of these which felt amazing as well

Cable Crossovers: 6x10 (2 sets upper, 2 sets lower, 2 sets middle) No pauses just adjusted the cables and kept going right to work on these

-Triceps felt like there were going to explode... great pump here.
-My lower back is still tight as hell from yesterday's workout... great signs of growth/progress

I can't stand not lifting.. hell I get upset if I miss a day in there or a meal... destroy it tomorrow.

The 4-1-1.
I figured I would post this up as it seems to be related to this log. For those that do not know, I have decided to step on stage next year. It will be for one of the few NPC shows they have throughout the year here in NC and I feel as my first show, it would be a great learning experience. One big problem before me is I have no idea how to pose...well I have seen the pictures/videos that's it. No IRL experience posing, so hopefully I can get in some decent lessons here and there. I also will just either do a cut 20 weeks out or 16 weeks out from the show not sure the average time span and all that. Just going by the gut at this point. That gives me a little over 6 or 7 months to starting putting on the mass and bringing up my weak points. I can honestly say my weak points are my back, legs (quads/hams), and my arms. I know my strengths are my delts and chest. I just have to keep working and pounding away at these weaknesses. I feel like I have made some great progress thus far on these areas though and will continue to do so. I will be needing some help from everyone so anyone that wants to jump on board and help me, please feel free. The more the merrier as right now I could use all the help I could get. Regardless, I hope some people chime in.

Also, today I will be doing two sessions. I felt great doing this last weekend and it seemed to really give me the chance to recover good over the weekend with more rest. That and my girl prefers for me to have already lifted when she gets here... ::SIGH:: With that said my AM session will be legs... which I am about to go do.. and my PM session before work will be arms. Nothing like waking up to ATG Squats. Yeah buddy....

I just wanted to throw this up as a little insight into the rest of my thinking now that I have a goal in mind.

[svmoney6]

sounds good bro. doing a show is a great way to see how much you can fine tune your body.

i've never done 2 workouts in a day, especially if the first is legs. kill it burt!
