Ya know its not that bad young joints I guess???
lot of sleep and rest?
IDK IF kevin can train chest 2 x a week and arms 2 x a week and still be healthy, I feel one workout like this wont kill me. MY wrist actually take the beating the worst..
Im just wishing like I keep saying the strength and workouts would show in my physique, ever since I started slowing negatives down I have def been more sore so im guessing its just a matter of time.
side not currently biggest I have ever been around 210 and would guess somewhere around 10-12 percent body fat. Will be putting a posing video up soon,
about 7 months out right now which means 3 more months off offseason, so really have to make it as productive as possibleTrying to improve day in and day out.

went to Jim rockells gyms, in rochester to train today, and film kevin who will be featured on rxmuscle soon. And today the pump was insane, the energy was great too, and i was sweating a ton. I just didnt want to leave the gym, and didnt count sets or reps just went w it. something i never do.
Did old school pullover machine first 100lbs heaviest set-terrrific machine
then hs iso row worked up to 4 plates a side for 8 reps
then dumbell row heaviest was 120 for 9 reps
tbar cable row- heaviest was 200lbs for 10 reps-sick cable machine
tbar pulldown worked up to 195 for 9
and finished w rack pulls and supersetted w a burnout of this old school row machine
rack pulls were all 495 3 sets of 8 reps
Crazy workout and have a posing vid w my training partner Kyle Glickman that I will throw up in a few minsTrying to improve day in and day out.

LEG DAY hello veins!
Simple today was Legs, and evey week like I Have been saying im trying to come down lower and slower, to keys to growth IMO.
So squats
335(8)365(8)385(7) 395(5)-last set always slowest down and lowest and also sit at the bottom the longest, blew a blood vessel in my left eye on these.
Then leg extensions 21's so 7 full reps, 7 at the top half way down and 7 at the bottom half way down, really controlling the weight on these, toes pointed out, something ifpa pro Matt Carey taught me. so did these w 110,130,150, this gets so much blood in the leg its insane.
Next was leg press sets of 10 with knees out on the way up, which Matt also taught me.
4pps,5pps,6pps, 3pps-again very slow and controlled on the way down, and up.
Next was some Hams, pretty fried after quads
so did STLD w/dumbells 80(10)110{11)120(9) stretching very hard at the bottom prob about 3 full seconds.
Then did 3 sets of seated hamstring curls, 20 reps,
OVerall insane workout, really burnt out, my whole equillibrium is all off, crazy leg day!Trying to improve day in and day out.

FEB 25th

today was just an all out power deadlift day not much of muscle building but still had to do something
405(5) 495(2)585(2)
That was a personal best getting 585 for 2 next wknd at the arnold classic I will be going for 600+
I do notice my lower back getting thicker from all these deadlifts for certain.
Then I did Reverse grip lat pulldown all for sets of 8-12 plates(on cable system)13,14,15
Then did tbar cable rows all for sets of 8 as well-140,160,180,200, 130
Regular Lat pulldowns-all for 10 reps-12,12,13,14 plates
Then did bent rows on the supported pad-did 2 plates and a 25 for sets of 8 with the most powerfull contraction and slow negative
Finished with some machine rows-3 sets one arm at a time
Never really did a workout where no free weight was involved but i good a great pump today and i really liked it.Trying to improve day in and day out.

Weaknesses are starting to finally go away
One of my training partners kyle glickman, who won the Nga Can am novice heavy and came in 2nd in open heavy in his first show, told me if i keep blasting my chest hard it will grow, so past 5 to 8 sessions ive been slowing my negatives down and really focusing on squeezing the weight especially w flies-the main exercises ive slowed the negative and positvie down making it a fly like the peck deck not a fly/press. So really squeezing the muscle no press part at all and chest is responding. Chest and legs have been my weakest body parts since I have started and now they are finally starting to progress nicely and catch up with my shoulders and back.
FOR THE WORKOUT
Steep {65 degree angle} INcline smith press 2pps(8)2pps w 10and 5(8) 2pps w 2 10's(7) for 2 sets then one drop w one plate and a 35 each side for 6 super slow reps
Almost flat dumbell press(up one notch on bench) 100(12)110(8)110(7) {doing these w elbows in towards the body a little been seeing more guys do it like this thought I would give it a try}
Incline Flies{super slow} 30(10)40 2 sets of 8
Machine press {somewhere btwn incline and flat} 2 sets of 13 reps w 190lbs
Then peck deck 30 rep set w 110lbs
Finished w some stretching of the chest and a little flexing of the chest.
OVerall terrific workout
Seeing kev in the gym is really pumping me up lately
Next 6 wks i will be at 5 bodybuilding shows including the arnold classic, so Im really firing on all cylinders now taking my offseason into 5th gear plus NOS im going full throttle right now!!!Trying to improve day in and day out.

Havent Been posting for a while been busy at the arnold classic w the brockport ratpack and Genr8.
Had the time of my life
Rich and James have a great gym sick atmosphere and really good MUSIC.
Also Trevor is in sick shape Idk if anyone can beat him, (except Joe rich who i have a feeling is going to be the most conditioned guy in the show)
Expo was a blast Il have some pics up sooner then later.
Took some pics w big names in the sport natural and Ifbb.
After hearing from genr8 athlete jessie godderz that he thinks my upper body is almost good enough to earn a pro card if i keep the mass and come in shredded i am very focused.
Also for my next contest prep i will be under the guidance of Anthony L Almada, founder of EAs, Genr8 and co-creater of Creatine. He will be handeling a large chunk of my diet, and will be leaving training up to kevin(NPc nationally qualified bodybuilder), and brody bloom(2009 teen bodybuilder of the year).
So I have a very good team around me, and As of now will be looking at october, to win novice and Jr class, or possibly waiting till this time next year and Will be GOING FOR MY PRO Card, and defying the odds, esp after placing 3rd in a teen class and 4th in novice last march. Looking for redemption 2 years later. SO I have some thinking to do. I will be taking a posing video over spring break and pictures for people to help me decide what their thoughts are.Trying to improve day in and day out.

Arms
Once again continuing to squeeze the muscle like crazy when training, and its definately responding.
Seated French press
Machine close grip bench press
Thick Rope extensions
then 2 sets of seated dips of 20 reps
BB curls-wide grip to failure then moved hands in once I got there
Machine Cable curls arms on a pad right in front of you
Finished w incline Hammer Curls-WHOA super crazy pump
overall im squeezing the muscle, Dave palumbo always said for bis that cables worked for him
Im trying the lighter weight thing on arms out for a while with good negatives and strong squeezes at the top, so il probally try this for a little while more probally 2 months to see if it keeps working
On a side not weighed in at 212.5 today, after using the BR the heaviest I have ever been, still have lines in legs, full abs and serratus is visible and some striations in chest and veins in delts and arms( not a veiny person) so Definately been productive offseason so far, can't imagine what another 8 months will do for meLast edited by jaredmus; 03-14-2011 at 01:37 PM.

So
SO im one year out from the show Im planning on doing next year,I know not super exciting. But what is good and really pushing me hard is after training back w IFPA pro Matt Carey(2010 Gaspari cup lightweight Champ) He said that if I can fill out about another 10lb offseason mostly in my legs, that I will be competive in the open class and possibly a pro card, if I can bring my condition about15% better then last year not 15% less bf just 15% better, if that make sense, and not mess my color up like I did last time and come in like a ghost, which cost me big time after speaking w the judges from that show.
So as of today stats
19 years old 5 "11 213lbs sitting probally around 10 % bf if not a little less
ON TO THE BACK WORKOUT w MAtt
Reverse grip lat pulldowns,-no jerk at all had my chest out and bringing the bar down basically hitting my nose each time insane pump
Then Bent row machine, non supported sorta up on a platform
tbar cable rows
Deadlifts-sets of 12(shocked my body like no other)
then finished w super wide grip(the gym we were at is a hardcore small gym crazy bars and handles attachements etc)
Overall im typing this up about 12 hours after we finished my backs a mess ,
I was never pushed like that, the negatives were insanely slow, the contraction was very strong, and the deadlifts mid workout w 12 reps blew my back apart.
Definately the best back workout I ever had.
Now that I learned some tips, I really hope to bring the thickness in my back up, which is a lagging area, back width is good, but mid back neeeds work,.Trying to improve day in and day out.

Reflect
REFLECTION
Today is one year after my last competition
Stats at show
5"11 18 years ol 173lbs contest shape
Today-511 19 years old 213 lbs.
SO this wknd went to the show,justin, brett, and TREVOR WON.
My unrealistic goal is to win a pro card next march.
I set unrealistic goals becasue realism is the easiest way to be average and never excell.
SO i commented in trevor and justins thread about how i thought it went it was spectacular they all looked sick.
My goal is to follow in trevors footsteps and take the light heavies at the same show next year and even though its a super slim shot, i am starting to surround myself with a great team and am bustin my butt harder then ever, and I will have my diet down percect. I cant wait

So i really havent been feeling well and very soon I will be taking a week off the gym from upper body. I will be training legs calves and doing cardio.
I dont know the last time I have taken a full 7 days off, probally been about 2 years.
I feel my body needs a rest.
I havent had it in the gym, but im still going hard regardless knowing I want a pro card ASAP!!!!
Today put some pro tan on kev right before i hit the gym which amped me up,
THE WORKOUT
BB ROWS-225(8)225(8)255(8)265(8) all bent over all the way and wide grip w a great squeeze
TBAR row Pulldowns-Cant remeber the weights but kept reps at 7-9 with a good stretch
Cable rows(semi wide neutrral grip) 190(8)210(8)210(8) 180(9)
Wide Neutral grip behind the neck pulldowns-150(15) 3 sets really a squeeze
DEadlift-405(8)495(8)495(3)-last set forgot to clip plates were fallin, so it wasnt good but really good workout regardless of not "having" it today.

Best of luck to my guys Kev and Joe Rich tmrwTrying to improve day in and day out.

EVERYONE Want to be a bodybuilder But nobody wanna lift no HEAVY ASS WEIGHT
SIMPLE, leg days are starting to get out of control here, the motivation on leg and back days is just stupidly intense for me. Im making it a point to improve them like no other fo the next 49 weeks.
THE WORKOUT
BB squats 315(8)385(8) 405(7)-PR 425(8)-Idk where the extra rep came w/added weight but it was good, anyone who has seen me squat no its deep and slow. Thats what I think will help add quality density to the leg.
Stiff leg dead 315(8)365(8)365(6) 365(5) was really Messed up after squats so these were def not the best ever
LEg extensions 150(10)170(10)190(9)210(8) just squeezing hard at the top
Seated leg curls 3 sets w 150(10) reps w good squeeze and negative when coming up.
Finished w adductors like kai sitting forward really squeezing.
Overall Squats knocked me out big time, So I tried to hit the rest of the workout heavy as i could w solid squeezing.
So next week WIll be a little diff more focus on 2 compound movement for quads.
TIME TO GET BIG WHEELSTrying to improve day in and day out.
