alright, heres an update...

started my diet today, going carb restricted, and training for DL only at my next meet august 22

gonna give the magnusson/ortmayer routine a shot, hoping to pull 625+ at that meet

saturday will be deadlift/back day. all other training will be pretty much bodybuilder style, focusing more on bringing up body parts, rather than a big 3 total. basically, its summer, and almost boat season, so im trying to get in semi decent shape again, while bringing my pull up to where it used to be

i will shoot my DL sessions every week, and keep everyone updated on my progress along the way

sounds good, whats gonna be your split and set/rep range? you tore that meet up to btw

Yeah I'm interested in your diet too, can you give some specifics? I'll be back home for a few days at the end of May, but not sure if I'll have time to get lifts in, does your gym charge a daily or anything (ps where abouts is your gym again?)?

coming into springfield from the east, my gym is on that main road. i can get a couple guest passes but they dont do a daily fee or anything

my diet isnt really spot on like it was in my BB days, but its pretty much high protein, low carb. im gonna try not to cheat for a few weeks, since thats what seems to bring me down the worst. ive been hitting the gym at 0530 before work every day, to get it all out of the way so i can do **** after work

the plan, for a few weeks is...

mon: chest/tris
tues: shoulders/bis/abs
wed: cardio
thurs: chest/tris
fri: shoulders/bis/abs
sat: back/DL

my chest really needs alot of work, since i havent done ANY chest moves in my westside training, and i wouldnt mind bringing my shoulders back up to where they once were. i figure attacking them both 2x weekly for a little while should shock everything back into shape

BTW, was 265 last week, am already down to 257

No legs?

No legs?

heres the thing. i was planning on doing my hams and back with the DL day, but i was short on time, and that routine kicked my ass right out of the gate, so im gonna have a seperate back/ham day. ill probably squat a little, but not too much. and even with westside, i never worked any quad exercises, just hams

no video today, i was helping my wife with her DL form, and we were short on time anyway, so i just went in and got after it. this routine kicked my ass!

445 4x4
505 2x2
445 8+ (i only got 5)

week 2 is just a repeat of week 1, and then you start adding weight. i really hope i can get that 8+ next week, but i was fried after so many reps this time around... its alot different than the singles and doubles of westside BB

body weight this morning - 252

thats a good 12lbs down from last week before i started my diet. i love how the first week's water weight loss is so drastic
