One Goal: Get Swole - Gabe's journey to swoledom

[GabeGSF]

DA INTRO

Yo brahs, I'm Gabe. I'm 17, 18 in a few weeks, and an incoming freshman at the University of Texas at San Antonio. Transferring over to Austin next year. I'm from Houston, probably studying finance, I like to lift and party. I've lifted for a couple of years, mostly inconsistently as I've had inconsistent access to weights, food, and limited knowledge. I've done my research though, and now I have the tools needed to succeed. Come fall I'll be living on campus, which will be the perfect environment for gains; 24/7 access to the gym, as well as adequate food and time for sleep.

DA PLAN

Currently my plan is simply to bulk the phuck up. Put on as much muscle as possible. I started lifting at about 120 pounds and dreamer bulked to 250 before cutting down to 185. I'm currently sitting at around 200 at 6'2ish, and it's time to put on some mass.

My split is simply chest/arms, legs/abs, shoulders/back, off day and repeat. Through trial and error I've deemed this to be the most effective, so phuck yo broscience. I'll be counting my macros and sh*t once I determine a baseline for what I need, which I'm already in the process of doing. For the rest of this summer I'll be partying extremely hard, but after that I'm making an effort to abstain from that and get enough sleep.

Below I'll throw in a chest/arms workout from yesterday to give you all a general idea of where I am and how I train.

I hope to have you brah's and brahette's support. Also feel free to ask me anything, I'm sure I could be pretty helpful to some of you. Thanks

Must supply food pics from college cafe too.

[GabeGSF]

That's a given. When I went to the cafe at orientation, I instantly got a boner. F*cking amazing :3 They had the best grilled chicken breasts I've ever had, plus everything else you can think of

[GabeGSF]

Today is a leg day but I'm unable to lift. Instead I'm going to do some sprints, I've noticed a bit of lethargy and high BP lately so a bit of cardio should serve nicely

[GabeGSF]

Well okay, turns out I'm going to the gym after all. And I just finished a heavy sprinting session, legs are feeling like jelly and mom's spaghetti Time to man up and go anyway

[GabeGSF]

8/7/2013 - Leg day

Morning weight: 185

Squat

45 x5
135 x3
225 x3
305 x1



Deadlift

225 x5
315 x5

Had to leave the gym early, 315 x5 on deadlifts wasn't a top set. I was going to do a max rep set with 405 but didn't have time. Squats were a failure, I was actually trying to get 305 x5 lol. I'll just back up a little, work on mobility, and now that my diet and training are semi consistent again muscle memory will kick in and I'll be hitting 305 x5 in no time. My morning weight seriously f*cking disturbed me, I need to eat more. Could just be water depletion from excessive drinking but damn, I was looking flat today

Lots of times I have to leave the gym early because of my inconsistent schedule. Of course, this will all change in a few weeks when I move on campus

[GabeGSF]

Yesterday I actually managed to resist the urge to go out and party with all of my friends. I got over 10 hours of sleep and am feeling great, I'm proud of myself

[GabeGSF]

YOU DECIDE

I can't go to the gym today. It's supposed to be a shoulder and back day, so I have two options:

A. Postpone my workout until tomorrow

or

B. Just stay home and do a massive amount of pullups and overhead presses with random **** around my house, like my little brother. This will allow me to not lose pace with my split

[Chris806]

Power clean and jerk little brother
