    3 years lifting. First physique show at 21. Join me in my journey to comp!

    A little background about me:
    -Wasn't a very active kid. Spent most of my free time indoors and never really played any sports
    -Was weak. really weak.
    -Graduated in 2011, and joined a gym (exact date: may 24th, 2011)
    -Gym had no barbells and free weights made it only up to 60lbs
    -After a year I progressed, but my constant inconsistency in my workouts, diet and sleep made the gains seem normal to minimal.
    -Attempted a 200lb dead lift on the smith machine. Snapped my back. Back to square 1.
    -Revised my workout, my diet, changed gyms. Got more dedicated
    -Had been giving it a great deal of time, dedication an effort to achieve the physique I have today, and decided I have enough bases to prep for physique. Not bodybuilding because I'm still a little too light and would need to add some serious mass, deal with things I don't want to just yet.

    The physique show I'm targeting is the Brooklyn Grand Prix
    It'll take place October 4th
    So I have 15 weeks to prepare for it
    I have a "coach" helping me out and supporting me, although all I need guidance with is diet and workout tune up the weeks close to the event.

    Diet and supplements
    -For now, since I'm aiming to get 10 pounds, I'm a little liberal when it comes to what I eat.
    -I don't split my meals into 7 small ones, but rather have 3 or 4 big ones and a snack.
    - Added to one protein shake with 5g of Creatine post workout, 5g of bcaa intra workout, and multivitamins upon waking up.
    -I get about 350g of carbs, 200+g of proteins, 100g or a bit more of fats, and -strictly under 75g of sugar.
    Call it placebo effect or whatever, but I like to keep my sugar intake low.

    The Workout
    - 5 days a week, 1 day of cardio, Saturday and Sunday off.
    - 4 sets and a warm up set
    - 15-12-10-8-6(or 8) rep ranges
    - super light - as heavy as I can progression
    - All abs excercises are Supersetted, and 5 sets of 15 reps.

    Day 1 legs and calves
    - 5 minutes warm up in the stair master
    - 3 sets (25-15-12) reps of light leg extensions
    - squats
    - leg press
    - leg extension
    - leg curl
    - 5 sets of 25 calf raises

    Day 2 shoulders and triceps
    - stretching shoulders
    - clean and press
    - hammer strength machine incline shoulder press
    - side raises
    - front raises

    - skull crushers
    - overhead dumbell tricep extension
    - underhand tricep push down with straight bar
    - tricep push down with rope / straight bar when I feel like

    Day 3 cardio and abs
    -35 minutes stair master
    This has helped my legs get solid. It has also helped my butt, and it's better than the boring thread milk
    - will lessen up for my goal now is to gain mass
    - hanging leg raises
    -decline bench crunches
    - captain chair
    - side plate crunches

    Day 4 back and traps
    -lower back stretching
    - deadlifts
    - t bar rows
    - cable low row
    - hammer strength pull downs, alternating arms
    - pull downs

    - dumbell shrugs
    - machine shrugs

    Day 5 chest and biceps
    - incline dumbell bench press
    - incline Flyes
    - incline hammer strength bench press
    - pec dec
    * focusing on upper pec development, will add flat bench press soon. Also, better fan of dumbbells than barbell. Makes both my arms work equally IMO

    -alternating standing curls
    - preacher curls
    - spider curls


    Workouts last 1:15 to 1:130


    Some pictures down below, will update log weekly, or daily if I have great feedback.

    Some pointers
    - need to work on shoulder development
    - need to work on lat development
    - need to work on lower back
    - need to work on upper chest

    Am I going to make it?
    Advice / support is greatly appreciated
