    JerG: Lifting, Cardio, And Food - My Journal.

    Hi all. I'm a freshmen here at Penn State. I'll be balancing my studies, clubs, friends, lifting, and everything else here in Happy Valley.

    A bit of background about me:
    -I got serious about lifting towards the end of last year (2007), but in December I messed up my shoulder playing basketball and couldn't lift at all until I got steroid injections in April of 2008.
    -From April to June I pretty much gained most of my strength back.
    -I more or less cut from July-August because I had gained fat from being pretty inactive from December to April. Plus I wanted to look good for the beach. I gained some strength here and there, but not a whole lot due to the cut.
    -Some exercises still agitate my shoulder. I used to take a drug called accutane as well, which caused my shoulders to hurt randomly (joint pain effects). I haven't done any military/shoulder pressing in months.

    Now, Goals:
    -I will use a modifed Westside Template to get bigger/stronger now. I am done with cutting for sure. I want to be stronger, and I may possibly join the PSU powerlifting club (just recreational, not competing)
    -I have honestly always been a ****-ass bencher, so my main goal is to improve that.
    -I want to sumo deadlift four plates by Christmas.
    -I want to squat 275x3x5 by Mid March (or whenever I end this bulk)
    -I want to bench at least 150lbsx5 by Christmas. Like I said, I'm just not a natural at benching so it's the hardest lift for me.
    -I want to bench at least 165lbsx5 by Mid March.
    -I am a bit timid of the idea of "bulking." I most definitely don't want to gain a bunch of fat. But I need to get stronger. So my goal will be about 180-185lbs by mid march.

    Supps:
    -I'm just starting to take whey protein again.
    -I ordered some White Flood, mainly so I can get more pumped/focused for workouts. I've only used 1/2 of a scoop so far, so I can't say much.

    Initial Workout Routine: http://www.elitefts.com/ws4sb/WS4SB.pdf

    But instead of having a ME and DE lower body day, I will simply have one day for heavy sumo dl's and one day for heavy squats. I'll keep volume low as to not get too sore/worn down.

    So this is how it should look

    Sunday/or Monday: Max Effort Upper
    Tuesday: Squats 3x5, accessory
    Thursday: Rep Effort Upper
    Friday: Sumo DL's, accessory

    If anyone has questions, please ask. Feel free to sub!

    haha, i am... i'm just trying to find out how much I should be eating to gain, without gaining too much.

    9/30/08

    Weight at gym: 164.0lbs

    SQUATS
    -225lbsx5
    -225lbsx4 (PR)
    -225lbsx2

    Notes:
    -I wanted 3x5x225 but it didn't happen. Actually got stuck in the bottom on the third set, good thing for powerracks.

    WALKING LUNGES
    -55'sx8 (PR)
    -55'sx8 (PR)

    I toyed around with the Hack Squat machine a bit as well, but I don't like it.

    Overall Notes:
    -I took one full scoop of WF before the workout. I didn't notice being any more pumped than usual
    -Guess I'll stick with 225lbs next week
    -Legs were fried after lunges
    -Intense workout, but low volume. I like my leg days that way.
    -Also met a really cool dude who does full squats. I talked to him about training, and he is a huge Rippetoe follower- even drinks a gallon of milk and everything. Seemed pretty cool.

    Misc. Notes:
    -Went to Badminton club for the first time today, was a lot of fun- good cardio.
    -I suck at finding related rates
    -Econ exam friday

    225x5 isnt a pr but 225x4 is?

    nice job. you should try and get at least 300g of carbs a day and 250g of protein. shoot for those and adjust from there

    That's pretty sweet. Yeah schoolwork is definitely stressful at times, so good thing we've got gyms. What year are you/where do you lift?

    Last time I squatted I hit 225lbsx5 on the first set, but only 225lbsx3 on the second.

    I hit 300+ carbs easy. I don't know if I get 250+ protein, but I'm definitely getting a lot. This is what I had for breakfast today, you would be proud:

    -1/3 plateful of egg beaters
    -Egg omelet (sp?)
    -4 pieces french toast with sugar free syrup and blueberries
    -waffle
    -bowl of oatmeal
    -bowl of cereal and milk
    -more blueberries

    Thanks for posting. But I have to eat large meals because I only eat 3-4 times per day.

    And I'll see if WF makes a difference when I bump it up to two scoops.

    Yea man! Glad to have you here. I don't usually lift that early, but maybe I will sometime.

    I worked out pretty late last night and just didn't get around to posting. Here's yesterday's workout:

    10/3/08

    Weight at gym: 165.2 lbs

    SUMO DL's
    -360lbsx1 (heaviest single after warm up)(PR)
    -315lbsx5 (PR)
    -295lbsx9 (Rep PR)

    Notes:
    -Rounded a bit on 360lbs, but it's a 10lb pr so I'll take it.

    HYPERS
    -bw+45x12

    Notes:
    -The hyperextension at White is really weird... It's a steep incline and feels awkward. I don't know if I will stick with this.

    FRONT SQUATS
    -135lbsx5
    -135lbsx5
    -135lbsx5

    Notes:
    -I'm trying to learn front squats again with clean grip, but it's really hard on my wrists/shoulders.

    CALF MACHINE
    -120lbsx15
    -120lbsx15

    Overall Notes:
    -I was more pumped up for this one, but that could have either been due to WF or just because I was doing deadlifts. But anyway, good stuff.

    Misc. Notes:
    -Pretty lazy day today, but I don't mind it.

    10/5/08

    Weight at gym: 166.0 lbs

    ME BB Bench*
    -135lbsx3

    Notes
    -The spotter (some know-it-all) made me set up 4 times because he thought my legs were "not perpendicular enough to the floor"- seriously, wtf. 135x3 was my previous best, but I know I could have done better if the spotter didn't mess with my head so much.

    DB Bench
    -50'sx15 1/2
    -50'sx12 1/2

    SUP. GRIP ROWS
    -135lbsx8
    -135lbsx8
    -135lbsx8

    Notes:
    -Upper Back still sore from dl'ing, but did these anyway.

    DB CURLS
    -35'sx8
    -35'sx6
    -35'sx6

    Overall Notes:
    -Kind of a ****ty workout. Whenever I start out on the wrong foot, it usually stays that way.
    -I'm thinking about doing bb bench as my main rep effort lift on thursdays instead of db bench. That way I can work on form with lighter weight if there is something wrong.

    Misc. Notes:
    -Lot of hw to do. Math mid-term on tuesday, not looking forward to it.

    Yeah seriously. He seemed pretty cool the other day, but man that pissed me off.

    But yo, I might try to go with you to the Rec on thursdays. It's a bit inconvenient for my schedule, but if I can gaurantee a good spotter then it would be worth it.

    Might not want to look at this one

    10/7/08

    Weight at gym: 162.2lbs **Important note

    **I had my calc mid-term today. My brain has been absolutely fried the last two days. In the past 2 days I've studied well over 10 hours. From the stress, I have had bad dierriea (sorry for the TMI), so that probably explains the weight loss. I studied all day today, went to the calc exam, and then went to the gym at about 9pm. My mind was just not together at all. When lifting, I just had no mental intensity at all, which explains this:

    SQUATS
    -225lbsx4 (failed fifth rep)(dropped the weight after this)
    -215lbsx5
    -215lbsx5

    LUNGES
    -55'sx6
    -55'sx6

    FRONT SQUATS
    -I'm trying to get the grip down. I worked up with a few reps at 165lbs, but my shoulders always hurt like hell. Nick, next time I lift with you if you could help me out here that would be great.

    Overall Notes:
    -Don't lift when your brain is fried.
