Son of a bitch! This is just not working out too well for me, and I'll be damned if I can figure out why. This just depresses the hell out of me. Current Stats Weight: 369 pounds, down 17 lbs Bodyfat %: 36.6, down by 1.2% total, up .2% from 2 weeks ago Body Fat pounds: 135 pounds, down 11...

Week 4 Day 3 Squats 5 x 150 5 x 175 5 x 205 5 x 240 3 x 285 8 x 205 Holy friggin crap. My legs felt like jelly after this. Seriously, they were twitching and shaking and wondering what the hell just happened. These are the heaviest squats I've done in years. I don't remember what I got up...

I noticed something cool last night that I thought I would mention. I was doing squats and I noticed my reflection in the window infront of me. I was wearing a really oversized t-shirt (everything I wear is pretty oversized), and my stomach was actually beginning to hide a little more. I...

Week 4 Day 2 Squats 5 x 120 5 x 140 5 x 165 5 x 195 No problemo. Nice, deep, ATF squats. Military Press 5 x 75 5 x 90 5 x 105 5 x 120 Another 15 pounds and I'll start feeling good about these again. I miss putting that big wheel on there and banging out some reps. Deadlifts 5 x 180...

Well, I bought pretty much everything that I'll need this week, food wise. Lots of ground turkey, my bell peppers, lots of rice and tuna. The only thing I will probably need to restock is eggs and possible a good protein source for dinner (chicken breasts, pork chops, etc). I'm going to try...

My main goal right now is to get under 300 again. Once I get under 300, as long as I'm still lifting hard and eating healthy, I'll be a force. The ultimate goal, I go back and forth on. At times I want to get down smaller, try to keep my LBM in about where it is and just cut down as much as I...

Week 4 Day 1 Squats 5 x 140 5 x 165 5 x 190 5 x 225 5 x 275 Bench 5 x 125 5 x 145 5 x 170 5 x 200 5 x 235 Rows 5 x 105 5 x 125 5 x 145 5 x 170 5 x 200 Pretty good workout, overall. I was feeling good on my lifts, so I bumped the top set up a few pounds from what I had planned on. Still...

Week 3 Day 3 Squats 5 x 135 5 x 160 5 x 190 5 x 225 3 x 265 8 x 190 Bench 5 x 120 5 x 140 5 x 165 5 x 195 3 x 230 8 x 165 Rows 5 x 105 5 x 120 5 x 140 5 x 165 3 x 195 8 x 140 Awesome workout. Nailed all my lifts without any real trouble. Some little guy that was moderately jacked nearly...

When I was about 20, I was just starting to get interested in lifting. A buddy was helping me out and told me that one of the best lifts was squats. So, I toss 185 on the bar, lift it, and realize this might be a tad much for me. However, I didn't want to look like an ass and just give up...

I'm actually not dropping weight all that quickly. I've been flirting with 370 for a good week now and just seem to be hanging out a little above it. I don't think it's that I cut my calories too low. I went and punched in a sample diet and I'm usually getting around 3,000 calories a day...

Thanks, I'll work on setting them up better.

Week 3 Day 2 Squats 5 x 105 5 x 145 5 x 185 5 x 185 No prob. Went slow, stayed in the hole for about two to three seconds, ATF as always. Military Press 5 x 60 5 x 75 5 x 95 5 x 110 These actually felt easier than last week. Deadlift 5 x 145 5 x 185 5 x 225 5 x 275 YEAH!!! I have to...

Week 3 Day 1 Squats 5 x 135 5 x 165 5 x 205 5 x 225 5 x 255 Felt good. Heavy, but good. Bench 5 x 105 5 x 135 5 x 165 5 x 195 5 x 225 Came sooo close to not getting the last rep on the last set. I honestly thought I was gonna get stapled. Somehow, it rose. Rows 5 x 105 5 x 125 5 x...

Current Stats Weight: 372 lbs, down 14 pounds Bodyfat percentage: 36.4%, down by 1.4% Bodyfat pounds: 135.5 lbs, down 10.5 lbs Lean Body Mass: 236.5, down by 3.5 lbs :mad: Not bad, overall, I guess. Wish I hadn't lost the LBM, but it's really not too surprising. I think I may not be...

Sweet, I've been thinking of adding in some killer ab work. :p
