Wednesday 5/16
Current Weight: 186 lbs
Current Bodyfat: N/A
Diet: 3 pieces of loaded pizza was the highlight of my day. I also enjoyed a coffee Coolatta, ham/egg/cheese muffin, protein bar, trail mix, chicken and rice, and a PB&J sandwich.
Supplements: NO-Xplode, and X-Tend pre-workout, 1 serving of Gatorade during the workout, 1 serving of Biotest Surge post-workout. Also, I do take a multi-vitamin like every single day.
5 minutes of warming up with dumbbells, barbells, and light power cleans.
1a – Bench Press – 135 x 20, 185 x 7, 225 x 5, 245 x 1, 245 x 1
1b – Standing Calf Raise – 240 x 12, 260 x 10, 280 x 10, 300 x 8
2a – Barbell Lunge – 135 x 10, 185 x 7, 205 x 4, 205 x 4
2b – Chest Press Machine – 210 x 3
3a – Pre-Made Bar EZ Skulls – 90 x 8, 110 x 4 Close Grip Press x 8, 110 x 4 Close Grip Press x 8
3b – Dumbell Curls – 50 x 8, 50 x 7
4 – Side Raises – 20 x 16
Conclusion: My bench press is pathetic. I have repped 275 before, like 3 years ago. I feel like 275 is far, far from my grasp. Lunges were pretty good, but I need to work on my stability. 110 seems very light for skulls, but I’m sure it will increase pretty quick. Overall this was a good lift, but I haven’t been sleeping well so I was exhausted by the end of the workout. Better luck on Friday.
My weight is up to 186! Now I must draw the line between bulking and just eating enough to keep getting bigger and stronger without getting fat. I no longer wish to bulk up anymore, so I will stay off that side of the line, although I won’t stress too much if I get just a little soft for a while.
