-The Story-
I have been lifting since I was a freshman in highschool. Like many, this lifting was for football. I had the thought of getting heeeeyooouggee. I failed at this by performing the typical mistakes. I started becoming informed more and more through reading. During frosh year of highschool, I never played on my football team. I rode the bench. Come soph year, I started since I could bench and we had few kids. Junior year came and all I dreamed about were the Friday night lights. I rode the bench 99% of my junior year. I couldn't help but think that next year was my chance. Being a naturally.. unathletic individual, I strived to be all I could. One winter morning at 6:30, I remember my coach coming up and telling me that I had a great chance this year. From this point on, I worked my ass off every moment I could. I started and ended up being a starting Guard/Tackle/DE of the best team in school history at 210 lbs.
I couldn't give up the high of playing football. It was my dream. I decided to go to Grand Valley State University, the D2 National champ. I worked out.. but was slightly cocky. The day of tryouts, I was cut because I thought I was tough ****. I tried out for outside backer with little prior experience. I damn near cried on the walk back to my room.
From this moment on, I have had a burning passion within to get bigger and stronger for the upcoming year. I will not give up and this log is to make my efforts worth it 110%.

Bench: 310
Squat: 365

Position: Defensive End
-The Goals-
Re-Proportion my lifts before team workouts in january(fed up squat)
Before next season-
Bench 365
Squat 450
Deadlift 450
Clean 250
Weight- 235
Bodyfat- 15%
40- 4.7-4.8
-The Program-
Ripptoe's "Starting Strength"
Reason- Squatting 3x per week. This will help to bring up my squat and deadlift numbers. Also, I will gain more explosiveness and strength. I have talked to Dave76 on deciding how I will follow this.
*All sets not including warmup*
Monday
Squat 3x5
Bench/Military 3x5
Chins 3x5
Dips 3x6-8(Heavily Weighted)
Wednesday
Light Explosive Squat 5x3*
Bench/Military 3x5
Deads 1x5
Friday
Squat 3x5
Bench/Military 3x5
Power Cleans 3x5
Pullups 3x5
* Light explosive squat performed with 225 squatting down to a parallel/slightly below box and resting then exploding up. Reps are switched since they tax the body very little.
Speed Work/Running
Monday- Hill sprinting with focus on forward lean and driving. Killer on the glutes/legs.
Wednesday- Sprints for speed. Measurements in yards
10-10s, 10-20s 5-30s 5- 40s
Ladder Work(high knees, side shuffle, icky shuffle, jumps)
Maybe some cone drills in there for funzies.
Friday- Sprints for endurance.
10- 80-100s at 70%. Down time- slow 1-2 minute walk back to starting line. These are amazing for endurance.
Might throw in a for fun jog now and then.
-Fueling the Beast-
Scivation's Lean Mass Diet 4000
Finalizing the meals.. will post later/tomorrow.
-Supplementation-
Whey Isolate - PWO
Carb Slam(WMS) - Pre/Post WO
Whey blend - Throughout the day
Multi
Green tea
Glucosamin/Chond.
Vitamin C
Creatine Mono- Post Workout(switching to Sizeon soon)
MuscleMilk RTD- prebed protein/fats
*These are all constants. Everything below is what I want to try.*
Activate Xtreme
Leviathan- lean out a little
Hypermass stack(Hyperdrol/Mass FX)
SizeOn(have it will start soon)
*I WOULD do X-F but my previous cycle did litte(**** diet). Im pushed away by the sore joints. That would be bad for me.
Im trying to stay away from the hormonal route.. seeing as Im only 18. Its hard because I need so much. That is why I am starting this log.. to try to track all of my progress.
Well.. I cant think of anything else right now.
Questions? Concerns? Comments?
This will start on Monday, November 12, 2007.
Thanks everyone!

Oh. Forgot to tell you why I need to proportion my lifts. I was squatting above parallel and was making no gains partly to this and partly to the fact that I have a pinched sciatic nerve/bad SI joint on my left.
That and I couldnt deadlift worth a ****..
For squat, I was doing 385+ for one.. now I am doing 305 for five.. maybe 315. I have to decide.. but id love to be up to like 365 for five in two months.
Im lifting today.. older workout just changed up to get a solid workout. Ill update later.

Morning weight w/ pajamas(shirt and boxers)-227(226 naked probably)
Im gonna go get a professionally done caliper test. Im doing the 3 point male test and my BF came up as 9.78% when Im grabable on hips, lower chest and a little on inner thigh. Test was on 2cm next to umbillicus, mid way of thigh(6mm there.. little fat there), and mid chest(16mm). My mid chest is leaner.. my lower chest has some boobie fat though...
ANYWAYS..
On my way to lift today. Im gonna max on bench and max on my 5 to see where Im at. Ive been training 3s on bench so 5 will be a change.. but nothing bad. Ill throw in some dips, rows, pullups, db military. Update in an hour or so.

Back is really tender this morning. Today is a lighter dynamic leg workout. I think Im going to skip today and just rest.. I feel like that would be the best choice to really let my back heal before next week.

Skipped yesterday to help recover. Came home this weekend so I can get some stuff situated before I go hunting in two weeks. No chance of me updating while im up there seeing as we dont even have running water in camp. I live in Michigan by Detroit and we hunt all the way up in the upper penninsula.
Well. Im going to see how I feel later.. Im probably going to go lift at a gym I usually workout at today.Grand Valley State University Lacrosse

Decided to just completely rest today. My back is still sore and the ****ing chiropractor wasnt in office today(although he has office hours today).
Sucks.. because I come home to the chiro I can use and he isn't here.
Im going to stretch.. maybe go for a little mile jog... but Id rather let my hip heal so I can hit my program STRONG on monday.
Heres the schedule for the next two weeks.
Next week is a normal week.. lifting Monday Wednesday and Friday. The week after, I have a flight at 7pm monday thats 3 hours away from GVSU. Im going to do mondays lifting Sunday. From this point, Im going to take the week off(monday-friday) Ill be home Saturday from hunting. Ill get a lift in on Saturday.(this is the week of the 19th). Program will be back in full stride after this.
By the middle of January, Im looking to bump my squat from a 315(after reset)x5 to atleast 365x5. I know I will.Grand Valley State University Lacrosse

Comments: Solid workout. I did something similar to Ripptoes about a year ago. I without a doubt forgot how hard it was to bench after squatting. Jesus.. I felt so spent. Not much intensity.. which is a big factor for me. Im tired as hell today for no reason.. I even popped a 200mg caffeine before the workout and nothing. Ah well.. good first day. Gonna go run hills in like.. 2 hours.
Current supplements
Activate Xtreme, Lean Xtreme, Creatine Mono, WPI, WPB(blend), Carb Slam, multi, C, Green Tea, glucosamine
Im going to start Anabolic Pump/Leviathan Reloaded in about.. a month or so. Using these to lean out and pack on some mass.
Update with diet later.. Solid so far though.Last edited by Lax891122; 11-12-2007 at 04:53 PM.

Day 6
Didnt do ladders.. just decided to go for a mile give or take jog around campus. Got it done in about 8 minutes.. think it was a little more than a mile. I worked on getting knees up during this jog since in sprinting I figured that I just.. stride.. with low knees. High knees make you SO much faster.
Day 7
As for today.. Im going to lift in about 45 minutes. I dunno if I made mention of this.. but all next week Im going to be in the upper penninsula of michigan hunting. Ill be there from monday till early saturday. Ill be back saturday at like.. 2pm ish. Ill get a lift in then. Tenative plan of the day is to lift and go agilities about an hour after.

Comments: I dont know why but its hard to get jacked up for squats. I dont have a spotter since my last lifting partner screwed me over for his cute little frat and kept lying to me. Oh well. I did do a jog the night before(saturday) and I get sick quad pumps when I jog(working on high knees in my jog).. so my quads were a little tired going into the gym. Overall good workout with more progress.
Day 8
Got up at 6:30 today to run ladders. Did that for 15 minutes at a field across from my building. I dunno why.. whenever I see people and Im running ladders.. I feel like and effing idiot. I think I might try to do this earlier than 7.. maybe like 6:30 from now on.. on off days from lifting. Anyways.. didnt break much of a sweat. Came back into my room and did jumprope for about 10+ minutes. Feel decent so Im gonna jump in the shower and head off to class.
As for my absence.. Im going to keep my protein intake as high as I can(will be hard since I dont eat a TON there). I picked up some BCAAs(Xtend) to mix into my canteen, VPX Zero Impact bars, tons of PB, Whole wheat bread, Eggs and oats for breakfast, deer sausage sticks(like.. slimjims but healthy ), and 3-4 lbs of whey. I figure ill take in 2-4 scoops of whey a day, 2 VPX bars, 3-4 servings (6-8 scoops) of Xtend, and 2 pb sandwiches with fruit.. I should be OK for four days. Diet is going to be a good amount protein and fat for the week.. but thats not bad. Im starting Anabolic Pump when I get back..
Feel free to comment .. Seriously.. I need love in here. .Grand Valley State University Lacrosse

Back! Whoo.. hunting was nice. Didnt get anything but it was a ton of fun.
Quinn I lift at like.. 1pm. I ran early the one day because I had to go to the airport to fly to where I hunt.
As for the plan.. gonna go lift in an hour or so. I think im going to run right after lifting monday and then do my sprint days on thursday and saturday. I figure that this will help me from blasting the hell out of my legs on M/W/F. Lighter load with work everyday seems better than a ton of work with one rest day before doing it all over again.Grand Valley State University Lacrosse

Explosive Squat- 225 6x3(on a 18 inch(guestimated) box
Military Press- 135x6 165 3x5
Deadlift 135x10 225x5 315x1 365x2(ALOT harder than I thought)
Workout Rating- 8.5
Intensity- 6
Comments: Having a hard time to get jacked up for stuff lately. Today is a nice kind of off day.. althought my legs are feeling pretty shaky walking up stairs. Im still sore from Monday's squats and yesterday's hill running. Feeling good though. I feel stronger.
Diet for the day-
Meal1 3 eggs, 2 pieces whole wheat flax organic bread, 8 oz milk, 1 apple
Meal2 Pre WO 1 Whole wheat pita in hummus(couldnt resist) and a buttery breadstick my roomate didnt want (.. couldnt resist x2), 2 scoops whey
During Workout- 2 scoops Xtend, 1 Scoop Grape SizeOn
Meal3 Post WO 1 scoop whey(ran outa WPI so im using ON for PWO), 2 scoops of WMS, 2 cups of lettuce(maybe more), 3 oz chicken in a ceaser sauce(1 serving of fat)
Meal4 4 oz cooked sirloin, 1 cup brown rice, 1 cup broccoli, 10 almonds
------------ thats so far the rest will be like so
Meal5- 3 oz chicken, 2 cups lettuce, 3 eggs, little ceaser sauce on chicken, 2 slices of whole wheat organic flax bread
Meal6- 4 oz beef, 1 cup broccoli, 1/3 cup brown rice
Meal7- Muscle Milk RTD, a few almonds
As for an update on current supplementation, Im using sizeon, Xtend(low, 2 scoop serving to make it last.. it was from hunting), ActivaTe Xtreme(fullness in muscle is great), Lean Xtreme.
After ActivaTe and Lean X.. I am going to start my Anabolic Pump, Leviathan Reloaded, and maybe JW stack. If I did.. that would go like so.
Weeks 1-8 JW
Weeks 1-4 AP
Weeks 5-8 Leviathan(for a good recomp and leaning out)
I am just worried about my speed. I might consider adding a good dose of BCAAs for recovery so I can go 100% every single day without soreness.. or well.. minimal soreness.

So.. I have the last exam before finals tomorrow for my hardest class.. also my worst grade. Im studying my ass off.. might not get to running until 5-6ish if I even do. We will see.. school is more important than running one day.
****.. that reminds me. I have a 5 page paper due in a week or so.Grand Valley State University Lacrosse

Im going to go lift right now. My girlfriend was up with me today so I just waited. I kept diet in check and already ate four meals each consisting of a 6 oz (precooked) chicken breast in olive oil with one cup of rice and broccoli or an apple with a little oil or PB for fats. morning meal was the usual 3 eggs and oats.
Looking forward to setting PRs on squat, military and dips! Damn I want 5 reps with 135 on dips and I have 3.
My lower back is being a bitch but as soon as Im done with exams next week I am straight chiropracting it twice a week for a few weeks. I am excited though.. Im close to my 375x5 goal on squats.Last edited by Lax891122; 12-03-2007 at 03:43 PM.
