Hey folks,
I've read the journals and figured I'd start up with my own. It's a great way to keep me motivated and to share my knowledge and workout tips with everyone else. Currently I'm 182lbs 15% BF.

My split looks like this:
Mon: Chest/Bi
Tues: Leg/Tris ------ Cardio in PM
Wed: Back/Shoulders
Thurs: Chest/Bi ------ Cardio in PM
Fri: Leg/Tris
Sat: Back/Shoulders
Sun: Cardio/Rest

I'll be hittin the gym in about 20 min. Today is Leg/Tri. Each exercise will consist of 4 sets of 8-10 reps. I'll be increasing the weight by 5lbs EVERY WEEK. So for day one i'll be using the same weight for all 4 sets and next week it'll increase by 5lbs.

Legs: Squats, Leg press, Leg curls, leg extension, lunges, calve raises (seated/standing)
Tris: straight bar pulldowns, skull crushers, dumbell kickbacks, overhead, close grip bench press, rope press downs

I'll try supersets if i feel i need more of a burn in my workout. I'll list my meal plans later on and how the workout went.

Cheers,
~TBB

Nice to see another log! That's a lot of work you've set youself there. You seem to be hitting your tris eiether directly or indirectly every day of the week. Do they recover ok? Looks like you do a lot of exercises for them too!
Hope your workout goes well! Superset, superset!!! :)

[MaKaVeLi]

that's a pretty hardcore weekly routine you've set yourself there! I'm curious as to how well you can recover, as Rocky has already questioned. Also, 6 exercises for triceps is excessive... anyway it will be interesting to see how you go, good luck with your training

[thabrownbeast]

haha, this was a new routine and 6 exercise for triceps was brutal! I'm gonna have to cut it down to about 4 exercises. I'm trying to hit each body part twice a week. It takes me about 1.5 hrs to finish my entire workout. And you guys are right, i'm hittin my triceps a lot durin the cycle, something I'm gonna have to workon. Thanks for the imputs bro's!

Hey folks,
The weekend was a total slack off. Worked out but barely. I was teach in a few people how to use the machines and this messed up my workouts. SO today (Monday) I came back hardcore. I worked out my Chest and Bi's today. Intense workout. I'm tryin to only do about 3 sets each exercise, I figured if I'm hittin each muscle group twice a week I wouldn't need to go intense each workout or I might overtrain (??).

Flat DB bench press superset with flat bench flys.
60x12 ss 30x12
70x8 ss 30x10
70x6 ss 30x10
70x5 ss 30x10

Incline DB press ss with incline flys
55x12 ss 30x12
55x10 ss 30x12
55x10 ss 30x10

Dips
10x3

Cable fly's
70x10
70x10
70x10

Standing wall curls ss wrist curls
30x10 ss 25x10 (3 sets)

Straight bar curls ss reverse curls
45x10 ss 45x10
55x10 ss 45x10
55x10 ss 45x10

21's
22.5 lbs

4 hours later, played Squash for about 45 minutes.

Had my PWO shake, 48g of protein + half scoop of gatorade (insulin spike)
I'd rate my workout a C+

Nice workout man, love them supersets! Probably best going slightly less hardcore if training x2 per week imo. Or alternating between heavy and light each session.

[Q80_MuscleHed]

nice supersets man :) .. keep it up the hardwork

[thabrownbeast]

Yah I'm guessing I might have to go easy on each session since i'll be hittin each muscle group twice. Thanks for support guys!

[TrueOutlaw]

good session bro keep it up.........squash?

[thabrownbeast]

Its a game similar to raquet ball. Your in a room with a raquet and you hit the ball against the wall. I've read somewhere that u can burn 500 calories per hr or half hour not too sure, playing it. Needless to say, I was drained after 30minutes.
