0skr's Workout Journal: Starting Strength

[justin94]

yeah i been busy lately, but ive still been lurking your journal. btw im only -600 in the red js

negged


dude that 12 yo girl squats 200? Christ, in my gym, we got 30 year olds struggling with 135, ON THE SMITH MACHINE lulz.


@ OP, how wide/far away are your arms from each other on the bench? The closer the grip, the more it hits the triceps




your middle finger or ring finger should be on the part where there's no grip ( not the middle ), but it really depends on how wide your shoulders are. my football coach insists that our grip should be parallel to our shoulders, but he also told us that squatting parallel will fk up your joints, so who cares right?

Getting stronger man, keep up the good work.

[Slackontheback1]

Good job man, hard work pays off. Work on your bench though, are you doing calve raises? Those could help out too. Good luck.

Nice deadlifts, any specific reason why your bench is going down like you said?

[sickonstorm]

[Delusional]

No.

My squat and dead have gone up, my bench is lowered.

Before I got sick (2 weeks ago) I was doing 4 reps on 95, now I'm doing 2 on 95.

[Delusional]

strong squats brah.

no brehs.

thanks.

They wont be going up any time soon, unless I gain 20lbs in one session.

[Delusional]

oh, I forgot to mention that once I get my protein I will go on a cut.

I'm around 140 now, will get to 125 *shudders*

Though, I'd rather be at 10% than 20%

meh dont worry youre still growing, probably gonna be around 15bf when you stop growing even if you dont cut and just keep clean bulking

edit: do you still swim?

never did, cardio is very boring for me. I will on the cut, 30 minutes after lifting.

[PRMachine]

I believe 30 minutes is too long, after 20 your body starts to use muscle as fuel instead of fat.
Correct me if i'm wrong.

[Delusional]

No, I can't eat much meat or good sources of protein and no powder.

Barely getting in 1g/lb.

I'm getting my protein powder in 2 or 3 weeks.

subbed <3

[Delusional]

Well, I just took some pics for before I cut.

35lbs ago



20lbs ago



Now:



front double bi (wow strong lightning)

[user787877877]

In my honest opinion it looks like most of the gains were not lean. There is definitely muscle that was gained, but I don't know what could be the problem? Not enough intensity? cardio? diet?

How long was in between the first and last pic.

Yeah, they weren't lean.

Those 35lbs where in less than 6 months, I was obsessed with moving numbers on the scale. Diet was always ****ty, for me the first 20lbs where somewhat lean, since they where noob gains. I kept the same diet I had in the first 20lbs and it had me gain a lot of fat...

What is the outline of ur diet? I too gained too much. 45lbs in 8 months..and the gains were NOT lean.

[Delusional]

What is the outline of ur diet? I too gained too much. 45lbs in 8 months..and the gains were NOT lean.

Outline of my diet is somewhat simple.

I would eat around 2 eggs and a cup of rice for break fast, during school usually 2 sandwiches or a hamburger + other stuff. Lunch would be cup of rice with some sort of meat and veggies. Then a protein shake, then at night I'd eat tuna or egg with another cup of rice.


More stuff here and there but that was it.

And just checked, I took the 1st pic at 6/13/08. I used to be on a very low cal diet, I got to >100lbs and then decided to bb.

Well first off that diet lacks A LOT of fat. So ur hormones most likely are all out of whack..BAD THING. Go on fitday.com and make an account that will get u in the right place.
