Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

I wanted to do something similar start with rear delt, then side, then front last to try and not let my front delt get too far ahead of the others. But there was too many people there in the way so I just went ahead.

Those waffles sound awesome.

today:

delts/traps/abs
10 min treadmill warmup
rotator cuff work
bb shrugs 135x20 185x20 225x12/3 (final 3 sets were 3 sec holds in the contraction)
reverse pec deck ss 60x20ss 75x20ss 90x20ss/2
band rear delt pulls ss x10/4 (used the small orange bands)
lat db swings 45x30 50x30/2 55x30
slide the rack press 95x10 105x10 115x10

machine crunches x20/2 x15/2
done for the day

not to bad of a workout. my rear delts got stupid pumped as did the lateral head on the swings. very productive and not a whole lot of pain in my shoulders today at all, so i am pretty sure my getting back to 100% timeline is right on the money. i know my body pretty freaking good i suppose. still stretching out that stupid arm sleeve which sucks cause it makes my whole hand go almost entirely numb within a few sets. it is getting better every day though.

meal 1
16oz skirt steaks w/a1
1 can orange cinnamon rolls made into waffles
meal 2
75g myfusion probiotic pro 3cups almond milk

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

Great to hear about your joint health, everything is better when you don't hurt so bad all the time. Probably sleeping better so that gives you a better day in the gym. Now about this diet; you are obviously eating more. Is this the same pattern you have been using just more calories? Do you limit your fat during bulking season?

not a real big method to the madness at this point. i am hitting a bit above my maint levels. i hit all my required protein and carbs for the day then i eat whatever else i want for the time being. my diet as well as training is going to take on an overhaul at the begining of next month. so instead of going full bore into my way i am just adding a little bit on for the time being until i start working with the mountain dog.

I keep meaning to tell you bro, you got me addicted to lemons. I've been doing like three or four at day LOL. Super refreshing to me especially in the morning when I don't feel like filling my gut with water. I squeeze two of them and then fill the rest of the cup up with ice water.... Great way to start getting hydrated in the morning

that and you are also helping out your liver kidneys digestion and fat loss at the same time

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

I wish I could do split squats and lunges more. Those are one of the things done after some squats that make you want to puke.

it def puts some hair on your chest for damn sure. i had some come up on me after that drop set today but i kept it down. those squats and lunges make you want to end the workout early every time. super set them and it is just stupid. i always tell myself that idea looked way better on paper than it did while doing it

great session and wore me out. back tightened up more than i wanted to on the bulgarians so i opted out of the bb squats and swapped it for leg press instead. i didnt want to push it overboard but it is 10x better than my last go round were i was laying on the floor twisting my hips trying to get it to loosen back up. still moved some pretty good weight and added in a nasty drop set on the leg press.

Re: Follow Along G's Run to the NA's

Is five meals a day going to be the norm for you? Or are you still just giving yourself a break from all that eating?

this approach i am taking right now gusto has kept me in the upper 250s low 260s hovering around 8-9% bf. so i have only gained about 14-18 pounds post show. that's not to shabby considering how lose i have been eating wise and enjoying life moderately while still hitting my protein fat and carb requirements daily

i am just in a slight maint type phase as of right now until i go full bore with the new coach next month. i dont want to adjust to my way completely to have him come in and change stuff up completely and freak my body out. his approach and methods are night and day different than mine are so i am just being easy right now slowly gaining back some muscle and not getting super nuts before i get his plan implemented fully

great early am workout. killed it pretty quickly and got it done in about 45 mins. was going to get in some calves and abs but the gym started getting stupid crowded and we parked near the front of the parking lot so we cut out quick. the people in our gym dont give a damn about other ppl stuff so when we park up front when it isnt crowded. i figured it would stay dead until we were done but i guessed incorrectly so we didnt risk our ride getting side swiped or door dinged. workout was freaking awesome and this program is def some serious stuff. i will be glad to get a break with normal training again monday for a few weeks

meal 1
12 whole egg sandwiches on oatmeal bread toast w/ light mayo
16oz sweet potato
meal 2
75g myfusion probiotic pro 3cups almond milk
2 tbl spn almond butter and 100g cream of wheat w/ sugar free chocolate syrup
meal 3
12 whole eggs w/cheese
8oz sweet potato
meal 4
32oz worth of my super cheese bacon burgers no side carbs needed cause these bad boys are super fat loaded monsters. they are right at 3k cals per burger and each one is 16oz each and i crush two
meal 5
100g whey shake

this is posted up in advance today and what i have planned. if it changes i will edit it but i can put money on that it wont unless i squeeze in some cotton candy ice cream in there. damn you mountain man

2 gal of water
