2007: The Year of the Badger

I can't even find my old log! :) Anyway, the new year calls for new measures. I have missed being away from EF, but I'm finally settled in at my new place and a new school, so it's time for me to get back to training seriously, and for me that includes logging consistently.
I've taken about a month off really. I've gone to the gym here and there since I've moved, and my diet's been all over the place. I'm still working on finding a gym that I like and establishing a new routine, so things probably won't get going until next week.
I want to compete again so bad (probably early summer), but I'll have to see how it goes with school. I have a really heavy course load this semester.
I've put on lots of muscle since my show in July, but a lot of fat too, so I'd like to start seriously cutting soon to see what's under all this.
Anyway, that's enough. :)
Glad to be back!!!
 
Thanks everybody!! :heart:

I'm going tonight to check out a Gold's that is close to me. So far, I haven't been impressed with any of the other gyms. Either too fu fu or just not enough equipment.
I think it's hard to get comfortable in a new gym, especially since I loved my old gym.
I'm getting used to being busy again. I think all of my classes will be OK except for calculus :evil:
I just suck at it, but I'm actually good at other math. I'll probably have to get a tutor, and I know it's going to be a big pain in the ass for me.
 
I hear you on finding a new gym! Now that I'm settled in to my new one, the old one I used to belong to doesn't seem good enough for me anymore. You'll adjust, I'm sure. :)

LOL....Oh Stop! :)


Anyway, the Gold's was just too far from my house. Today I went to the gym at school, which blew. They just don't have enough equpment for me, but they're adding on, so it might work in a few months. I decided to join this gym that's right by my house. It's dirty and they don't have any fitness classes, but they have a ton of weights and machines, and I guess that's all I really need. It's pretty small, but it's cheap. I'll see how it works out.

On another note, after I went to the school gym, I decided to go running in this beautiful park that's near us. I ran for about three miles on the trails, wondering when it was going to end. To make a long story short, I got so lost and spent about two hours searching for my car. Thank God I found it before dark (but it was close).
Next time I'll go with a compass. :)

^^ SO hear you there... your run sounds peaceful, I miss running!!! Wishing you a great week at school!
 
Congrats on the trail runs -- sorry you got lost! I can't tell you how many times I got lost driving from my school to grad classes two years ago and it was only 3 miles away! :rolleyes:

By the way, I did real well in my calculus classes and was always really good at math -- BUT I did have to work at those calc courses too! The BEST THING I did (and the best tip I can give you) is find out when your TA has office hours and GO! The earlier in the day, the better -- I would always go to the 8am session because NO ONE was up that early and I had the TA all to myself to ask questions and get help on homework. I swear that was the only way I did so well! Hope that helps! :)

Thanks -Cake! Good advice. It's actually starting to get a little better for me. I got a calculus for dummies book (whatever) and it's really a good supplement to my class and textbook. I know I can do it, but I guess I'm not used to having to work so hard to understand something.

LMAO Well well.... I have an internal compass I guess I was born with... I just feel I know which way is which and I always end up right. Never lost temporarily displaced a few times... but never lost LOL

How's the new gym working?
 
:wavey:
Just wanted to say hi to everyone!! I don't have time to check out everyone's logs....I'm crazy busy studying.
Workouts are good....diet is so-so.
I finally found a gym to join, so things should be getting back to routine.
If anybody needs me shoot me an e-mail.
 
:kiss: Back at ya!

I'm starting a new training split today:
Sun: chest, tri, quads
Mon: shoulders, hams, calves
Tues: Off
Wed: Core
Thurs: Back, bi
Fri: Off
Sat: Off

Cardio will be 3x a week, probably 30-40 min. after workouts. I'm going to see how this works with my schedule. It's been really hard for me to find ANY time.
I'll start logging my food today as well. The goal is definitley to cut...because I feel like a whale.....but I'm going to ease into it this time.
PLEASE give me any suggestions you may have. I really need to be pushed right now because my motivation has been in the dumps.

Hoping to make it to the Arnold next weekend. I woul LOVE to meet everyone.

I wish I could have met up with everyone later, but we were so exhausted and had to get back home. We will never attempt to travel that far in that short of time again.

I NEED SOME ADVICE........

I'm leaving on Saturday to go on a mission trip to NYC. I"ll be there for a week. Since this is a group volunteer trip, we'll be staying in a hostel where there is no refrigerator, microwave etc etc. Breakfast, which consists of a bagel and coffee, will be served there every morning, and we'll be eating out for lunch and dinner. I need some ideas for food I can take with me that doesn't need to be refrigerated or cooked. Something to substitute for breakfast, and stuff to have in between meals out.
What are some good protein bars that don't have too much crap?
Any other ideas??

I like the Met-rx bars Peanut one favorite

bake oatmeal mixed with water and spices (ie cinnamon) on cookie sheet. throw in baggies

unsalted almonds in baggies

individual packets of tuna, salmon, chicken (BIG bottle hot sauce)

shredded wheat in baggies

get grilled chick salads at restaurants.. could always get double serving of meat to take on go and place in cooler till next meal.

protein powder

Sometimes you can borrow hotel's personal microwave, sometimes like Panera has a microwave I use, or hospitals do... Most work-places will have one. Even churches if that's where u are going. Can bring sweet tatos and cook em up, or whole wheat pasta or brown rice and all you need is bowl and water in micro.

Beef Jerky

Flax seed capsules

Brown rice cakes instead of regular rice cakes

Peanut butter

apples/fruit

Got back from New York today. I had an amazing week volunteering,meeting some great people, and exploring the city.
I did pretty well with the diet considering the circumstances. I've taken a whole week off from the gym, but it's back on tomorrow!!
 
Thanks Bunny and ducky!!

I totally forgot about logging my food yesterday, but I did plug it in to fitday. Diet is good. I cut out the bread this week. I've had a good two days back in the gym. Off today!

I had to get a bunch of immunizations yesterday, and I started running a fever after the gym last night through this morning...feeling better now.
 
I've had a rough week in school, and I've been slacking with the log because of that. My diet was on point all week, but I did allow myself a few cheats today. I'll start logging again tomorrow.
I'm also thinking.... :Perk: I'm gonna post pics soon so I can gauge my progress through this.
I'm looking for a show so I can have a tangable goal. The one I did last year was cancelled for this year :worried:
I'm shooting for something in August.
 
So, I'm attempting to log again. I've had a lot of stress/business in my life, so EF hasn't been high on the priority list. I really took too heavy of a load on this semester. Oh well.....live and learn. Thank God there's only a month left of the semester.

I"ve picked a target show: July 14th Back up show: August 4th
Please help me to keep my ass in gear. :)
 
Goals for the Week:
Drink more water!
Start doing AM cardio
Start limiting dairy

Here's a few starting point pics/end of bulk cycle
Nothing fancy.....I'll try to post dieting pics bi-weekly at least.
Please critique...anything I need to especially work on? I know it's hard to tell with all this blubber on top.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh YESSSSSSSS!!! I'd say your lower then I was for sure and I started at 12... well what I thought was 12 :lmao: Turning into 15 though since first show is out and focusing on the June 2 one now ;)

I've put on lots of muscle since my show in July, but a lot of fat too, so I'd like to start seriously cutting soon to see what's under all this.
Anyway, that's enough. :)

Yeah, I definitely feel like I can do it...just feels good having the outside encouragement. :) Something about a bulk really does a number on your self-esteem. It's like I feel like I can never get lean again. :lmao:

So, what happened to the first show? Just needed more time?

Yeah, I definitely feel like I can do it...just feels good having the outside encouragement. :) Something about a bulk really does a number on your self-esteem. It's like I feel like I can never get lean again. :lmao:

So, what happened to the first show? Just needed more time?

Rest Day
 
I've been MIA for a few days because I'm crazy busy as this semester is coming to an end.
Not to mention, I spent last night in the ER with a UTI. I let it go too long...oh it was painful. :worried:
All better now. :)
Did tris and quads in the gym tonight. Diet has been right on. I'm just too lazy to post it up.
 
Diggin' up my log!
Well, I had originally planned on competing July 14th, but my progress has been stalled (as you'll see from my pics). I have done ZERO cardio in the last two months, and diet has just been so-so.

So, now I'm shooting for August 11th in Roakoke, VA. I've asked Shadow to help me prep for this, so here we go.......

Stats as of 5/12/07:

Height: 5'4.5"
Weight: 141.8
BF%: 22.97

Couple of initial thoughts:


1 - you have a fantastic frame - that is a good thing
2 - you have an even distribution of bodyfat - that is a GREAT thing


Please (re)indicate for those who are following along if you are entering fitness, figure or bbing.

Oh, forgot that....... Bodybuilding
 
Baseline Diet:


Meal 1:
-Protein shake........
enough powder to cover 30 gram,s of protein....put this in 1.5 cups of nonfat/1% milk....one teaspoon creatine...same with glutamine powder
Take vitamins as well

Meal2:
-Handfull(1-1.5 Oz nuts)
-500 ml water

Meal 3:
-baby spinachleaves with 4-5 sliced strawberries and several bluberries....
-low cal dressing

-500 ml water

Meal 4(after weights)
-Same shake as meal one

Meal 5
-6 oz lean fish, chicken or beef

Supplements:
Glucorell-R is the r-ala:

ONE 200 mg ala with your two shakes and post-work out solid meal.
100 mg of the rala per 20-30 grams of carbs.

Creatine = 5 g (2x a day) with shake
L-Glutamine = 5 g (2x a day) with shake

Multi-vitamin




I do not want to add ANY ancillaries such as fat burners, clen, Yes, etc at this point.

The first two weeks are the most important is laying the proper foundation for the weeks to come. This involves zero-ing in on the metabolic rate sans supplemental support.

HYPER EXTENSIONS - 3 SETS OF 12-15 6 TUT
HANGING LEG RAISES - 3 SETS 12-15 6 TUT


CARDIO PLAN:

MON, WED, FRI
HIIT cardio

10 minute warmup

8 CYCLES of HIIT Cardio- 30 secs on the all-out portion and 60 seconds recovery. I recommend keeping the incline at 15 degress(or higher) throughout and using the speed as the stimulus. Use 4.0 mph as the recovery interval ans run up to 8.0 mph(hold on if needed) for the 30 second all out effort.

5-10 minute cool down.



This is only 12 minutes of actual "cardio".........but post up if your shins begin to ache.


BF% to be tested every 7-10 days by same technician, etc.





The cardio outline is what our cardio plan will build from.....
 
OK Shadow, some questions...

Are any kind of nuts OK? I can't eat almonds.

Are the lunges with db or bb? walking lunges??

And for the cardio....is it OK to be doing it PWO at this point or should I be doing it in the AM on empty?
lol at the hold on if needed!

BTW - I'm finally catching up to you - I pressed the 50lb DBs recently!!

Yes.....cashews, peanuts(even peanut butter is fine)

Yes - walking lunges with dbs or a bb...which ever suits you better....imo - dbs seems to help with lateral balance...kind of like a tight rope walker with his pole.

am on empty is far superior to PWO on cardio.

Trying to mold lifting and cardio together into one session is where a lot of competitors make their biggest mistake.

The point of precontest trainig is to:

1 - lose fat
2 - build or at least maintain lbm


you cannt accomplish BOTH of those ends in ONE session per day
