7 Lower Body Cell Swelling Day
Whats up guys! I've had a workout log in the contest prep section since 2012 (http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=146484503.)
During that time I've gone from 145 lbs at my last show
Up to a fluffy 265 lbs
And am sitting somewhere in the 212-225 lb range currently
My goals are simple. Keep my family and future wife my priority, earn my PhD, become an IFBB pro, continue to grow my online coaching company BeastFitness. I will and have outworked everyone. I will never let anyone outwork me. I will never give in, give up, or give into a failure.
My current workout routine is a personal DUP program I've put together after 3 years of experimentation:
Day 1: Lower Max Effort
Day 2: Upper Max Effort
Day 3: Lower Hybrid
Day 4: Upper Hybrid
Day 5: Lower Hypertrophy
Day 6: Upper Hypertrophy
Day 7: Lower Cell Swelling
Day 8: Upper Cell Swelling
*Repeat, only take days off as needed
*Squatting, benching, deadlifting 3-4x per week

Enjoying it so far! Started my own cooking/baking thread for the different flavors of Trutein. Experimenting with there BCAA supplement Aminolution right now.
Looks like you did an awesome job cutting down from the 260's! Looking great man! How is Performix treating you bro?Progressive overload + progressive eating = gains. Simple as that!

That's awesome and it's good to hear things are going so great for you! You deserved a rep spot long ago, so it's nice seeing you working with a company. Only bummer for us is no longer having the ability to review a wide range of products anymore, but it's nice to sit back and be able to back the products you represent as a rep now. I haven't had any Performix products before, so I hope you're enjoying the company you're repping

Thanks man! Yeah I agree but we've reviewed nearly everything haha..definitely love working with Cory! He's the man
Right on man! Seriously take your time, find an approach that makes sense on paper and from research, then adjust and manipulate based on the results. Keep doing that until you find it and then you can reap the rewards
