q22weasel
01-04-2003, 03:15 AM

Hey, be thankful. I was watching the Discovery channel: a show called Eaten Alive. And this one guy on there got this parasite that had him vomitting and s*%!ing. The next day he was 70 lbs. lighter. /forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

had a great back workout today. did deadlifts again for the first time in a while and they kicked my @$$. felt really good though. i also did widegrip pullups and then supersetted close grip standing row with dumbell pullovers.
q22weasel
01-08-2003, 02:51 PM

Lumina20
01-08-2003, 07:57 PM
Aaagghh!!! I've been trying to go to sleep at a sane time also and it's just not working! I've thrown my clock all off which sucks because I really need to be up at 4:15 AM in order to eat and go to the gym starting um...Monday! (That's when school starts back for me, too.) Good luck on that sleep thing. Have you tried ZMA? It actually makes me pretty sleepy...
q22weasel
01-08-2003, 09:47 PM
yeah, i've been taking zma...it doesnt make me sleepy, i sleep deeper however.
q22weasel
01-09-2003, 10:20 AM
rest day today. i'm really going to be sure i get my good calories down today. i'm very sore from my workouts this week. apparently that's what happens when you take 2 weeks off. i should feel better tomorrow.
q22weasel
01-10-2003, 05:50 PM
i flipfloped arm and leg day, because i'm still a bit sore from chest/back/and shlds. wasn't my best leg day ever, but it was alright. my gym is so **** of people who are going to be there for 2 months for their resolutions, i have to wait in line for everything.
q22weasel
01-11-2003, 07:35 PM
great arm day today! i did some behind the back dips for the first time in a while, i'm definately gonna be sore from em.

my weight only went up 1 pound this past week. i wanted to start by gaining 2 lbs per week. my diet was severly lacking the last 3 days, so i just have to stick with it all week long.

q22weasel
01-16-2003, 12:48 PM
rest day today! whoo hoo! i'm a smidge sore. got my diet back on track (for like the eigth time) hehe. my trouble is on the weekend i get out of schedule and end up eating [*%#*%*#], getting lazy, and it throws me off for a few days. i've got more [*%#*%*#] to do this weekend, so i should get off my ***. well, no more blabbing, time to eat!
q22weasel
01-18-2003, 06:10 PM
i forgot to post yesterday. didn't miss much tho, just a bad arm workout. the intensity just wasn't there, i think my lack of sleep is catching up with me. had legs today, but got cut short cause our **** gym closed early for MLK Jr. b-day. i'll remember that tomorrow when i go.

q22weasel
01-27-2003, 11:40 PM
forgot to post my shld wo yesterday. it was decent.
had the day off today, and i feel real good.
caliper: pec-6, abd-10, thigh-12, sub-10, tri-8, mid-8, supra-8
bf% = 8%
weight = 153
i upped my cals and still only gained 1lb. however, my bf% dropped dramatically. this could be why i'm gaining so slowly. i guess i'm going to try to top 4000cals a day this week and see what happens. i dunno if i can stuff anymore food in though.
fluffy
01-28-2003, 12:09 AM
way to go! one pound/week gain is perfect and if you can manage bf% drop at the same time, even better /forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif
q22weasel
01-28-2003, 07:13 PM
well i'm still skeptical about my bf% drop. we'll see next week if it was just a fluke or if it actually happened. i haven't notcied that much of a change (just from looking at myself) but the girl who does my skinfolds said that she did.
back today
deads: 242x4, 220x6, 198x8, 176x9, 154x11
barbell row: 95x14, 115x12, 135x8, 145x6
lat pulldowns: started at 150lbs to failure, dropped 25lbs at a time til failure. first set wide grip, second neutral, third reverse grip
close grip row machine: same as above, starting at 150lbs, 3 sets.
the gym is starting to clear out a bit already! some of the resolutionists are quitting early this year, whoo hoo!

Hey bro, do you keep a fitday journal? I'd like to see it if you do. PM me.
q22weasel
01-29-2003, 12:15 PM
well...i got my 4000 cals in yesterday...god **** that's a lot of food. dunno if i'll be able to keep that up all week. i may just try to make a weight gainer w/ whey, pb, and oats to make it a bit easier.
chest today
db press: 60x12, 65x9, 70x8, 75x5, 65x8, 55x10, 50x12

Sounds like a bad bad weekend..... Ever wanted Monday that bad? hehehe
q22weasel
02-03-2003, 10:20 AM
my weight is 154 and my bf% is 9.1%
i figure my bf from last week was probably a fluke, prolly just got some bad measurments. i still managed to gain a pound, but i think it was all fat, so that sucks. i'm gonna quit being a whiny little *****, suck it up and deal w/ my problems. everyone has a few bad days and i let it affect me too much. i fell bad for my muscles...because they are going to take the blame in the gym! i'm thiking of starting the new 8 wk shoulder program today, because my delts are still lacking. can't wait.

thanks man...i'm having myself a blast! my new measurements will be up on monday as usual.
apparently i didn't post my last two workouts...arms and legs. oh well...both went very well, i'll leave it at that. i'm doing shoulders here in a few hrs, i should be able to post that one later on.
q22weasel
02-09-2003, 08:34 PM
did the second workout of the new shoulder routine...oh man is it painful.

upright row: 75x13, 85x10, 95x8, 105x5

q22weasel
02-10-2003, 11:53 AM
whoo hoo! my weight is up to 156!! i was so pumped when i got up this morning. i did eat really well this past week, so i deserve the 2 lbs.
i'm not so sure what is up w/ my bodyfat. it keeps jumping around like crazy. does bf change that often? my new measurements are: pec-7, midax-8, abdomen-10, suprailiac-6, thigh-12, tricep-8, subscap-10...which gives me a 7.8 bodyfat. i don't think it's possible to go from 9.1 to 7.8 in a week, is it? just from looking at myself i would say around 9.1 is more accurate. oh well...fugg it, see what happens next week.
q22weasel
02-11-2003, 09:13 PM

back today.
pullups: started at bw, then dropped til got to 12 reps: 4 sets
barbell row w/ pullover: 4 sets
t bar row machine: 4 sets
close grip pulldowns: 3 sets
i kinda lost some of my intensity towards the end of the workout. back is usually one of my best days because it is right off a rest day. i didn't sleep well last night, so that may have been the problem. i'm gonna try to sleep better tonight, although i have an early meeting tomorrow, ugh.
q22weasel
02-19-2003, 08:58 PM
decent chest day today.
wide grip bench- 205x5, 185x7, 165x12, 135x15
db incline w/ flat db fly: 65x8-22.5x7, 65x7-22.5x5, 65x5-17.5x6, 65x4-17.5x4
decline bench-185x5-165x7-135x10
fly machine-2 sets to failure
my intensity was kinda lacking again towards the end of the workout. i may be overdoing it a bit, especially w/ the amount of sleep i've been getting. i've got a rest day tomorrow that i'm going to take full advantage of. i may also take friday off if i'm not going to be able to give it 100%
q22weasel
02-20-2003, 12:04 AM
i've not been keeping 100% track of what i've been eating. so i put what i ate into fitday today, and it definately was not what i expected it to be. i'm going to keep **** good track tomorrow and try again. my diet may need tweaking again...argh.
q22weasel
02-20-2003, 01:30 PM
well i recaclulated my diet...and it seems i am heading towards a 33/33/33. i didn't want to try this until i started cutting, but since it seems to be working i'm gonna stick with it. my carbs are still up at about 40 and fats at 27, so i just need some minor tweaking.
q22weasel
02-21-2003, 02:49 PM
definately going to take today off as well. i don't feel up to lifting good today. i'll start my split back up again tomorrow and go from there.
q22weasel
02-23-2003, 05:45 PM
did week 4 of the new shld wo...wow, props to old school, that one is a great one!

hey! new measurements! wt=158lbs. bf=8.1%
it's time for me to really buckle down. 4 weeks left i believe, and i've spent the last 3 not at the top of my game.
did week 4 of february's shld routine. had to modify a few things due to the packedness of my gym. spring break is next week, so it should clear out quite nicely afterwards.

did back today:
50 bodyweight pullups (thanks to scott b): 9x6x6x5x5x5x4x4x4x3--guess i did 51.
deadlifts: 220x8, 220x7, 220x5 -- i fricken jacked the bar off my shin sometime during the first set and started bleeding. had to get cleaned up and had to fill out some stupid accident report.
barbell row (underhand grip): 110x9 x9 x8 x7 x7
that was quite the workout...can already tell i'm gonna be sore tomorrow.

i had no intensity whatsoever today. my first class was cancelled, so i slept in and missed my first meal. that may have been part of the problem. oh well, i'll make up for it next week.

weight is 158.
my god...i really need to get out of this plateau. i'm going to miss 3 workouts as well, because i'm going home for a few days. i think i'll at least try to come up with some things to do around the house.
bodyfat is at 8.9%
should be pretty accurate, i had my roomate test it instead of my normal tester. she'll be back for my next bodyfat, so it's all good.

alright, i changed my split up. the rest of my semester is going to be very busy, so i cannot keep up the split i was on. i'm going to have a 4 workout rotation. chest/delt/tri, back/bi/forearm, hams/quads, calves/abs. i'm just going to lift any day that i can and rest on days that i cannot. i should be able to lift 3-4 days a week, so it'll work out alright. i'm going to allow myself a little bit more freedom on my diet as well. i've been having trouble following a perfectly strict diet. if i allow myself just a smidge more freedom, i think i will do much better with it and not go on 4 day binges.
also today while i was in the gym, a buddy of mine that i haven't seen in a while said i looked bigger. i haven't been feeling real big lately because i've been at the same weight for like 3 weeks, but that gave me the boost that i needed! so, 160lbs, here i come!

this has been a great time! congrats to everyone for sticking it out. i'm very pleased with my results, i've put on 11 pounds and my body fat has stayed pretty much level the entire time. my plans are to continue bulking and try to put on at least another ten pounds before school starts again in the fall.
