Starting The Omega Project 1/7/08

New member
So I would like to start sooner but I just quit my gym not too long ago (ballys=lame), but I joined a new one and I will be going starting next week. I have a small home gym which I have been trying out the routines and I have been sore all week. I cannot wait to get into the gym. I'm looking forward to Legs the most. Oh yeah I'm 6'1 205 not really too sure on my bf but my waist is 34. I've started the "blue collar" diet, I must say its fairly easy to follow but man I am hungry. I'll get some pics up here soon.

I cannot wait to start this program and share all of my progress with you guys! :)
 
Welcome...no worries..you will make great progress like everyone here if you just follow what omega gives you to do...I just started and can tell that my changes will be dramatic

pats kicking some ass this year tee hee


ask away bro its what I am here for. Keep it to the food threads omega has going here though. I don't want to clutter up his board. :)
 
Sweet I'm officially logging today. I'm kind of dissapointed with myself, I realized that I have been lifting with terrible form for the past year. :( but......thats what I'm here for. :)

I actually started the program on wednesday but didn't write it down until today.

Diet for today was:

7:00am Two sunny side up eggs, 4 egg whites and 2 pieces of whole wheat toast.
Followed with some Amp02 8 to be exact.

Hit the gym by 8:00am and finished by 9:15am
Took Kre-alkalyn and gatorade by 9:20am

Drank my post workout shake around 10:00, somewhere around 60-65 grams

11:00am Double meat roast beef and roast turkery on whole wheat with baby spinach leaves, tomatoes, and brown mustard on top. Took my last 3 lipoflame 15 minutes after that :(

4:00pm A salad (romaine) with tomatoes, 2 grilled chicken breasts with evoo +vinegar.

I'm not gonna lie I cracked about an hour ago and had a spoonful of peanut butter. I couldnt help it my stomach was rumbling.

I plan on drinking another shake before I go to bed, I really need to get some casien.

Onto the workout log:
DAY3

Smith Bench
weight on each side
Set 4 - 60 for 7 reps
Drop Set - 35 for 6 reps I believe I dropped too much weight

DB Incline
Set 4 - 40s for 7
Drop Set - 30s for 4

DB Flys (I'm planning on switching to cable flys when I learn how to do them the proper way)
Set 4 - 40s for 6
Drop Set - 30s for 4

Shoulder Press ( Some extremely fat "powerlifter" was using the smith machine damnit)
Set 4 - 70lbs for 7
Drop Set - 50lbs for 4
Drop Set - 30lbs for 5

Tricep Pushdown
Set 4 - 110lbs for 6 (I dont know if this the correct lbs, some of these machines dont go by that)
Drop Set - 80lbs for 8

:( I forgot about One Arm Pushdowns :( I won't next time :)

Well I felt really weak because of the weight that I was putting up, but I feel my form was excellent. I need to focus more on "feeling it"

I did about 15 minutes of cardio on the treadmill at a decent speed.

Oh yeah my WHOLE body is sore from these past few days.
 
awesome!

when your doing this form the way we do it there will be a day or a moment where the intensity you will generate will be far Higher then those that use loose form

and you will KNOW it and feel it


and all of it is UNDER your control and goes right into the muscle for an adaptive response

the is form brought up my tris back, and calves when they never responded before
 
Damn that steeler loss went straight through my heart :( I'll be hitting the gym hard in the morning.
 
I was a bit lazy this morning. I planned on hitting the gym at 8:30, but I didn't make it there until 12:30.

Leg Press (I felt like I could of gone heavier)
on each side
Set 4 - 225 for 7
Drop Set - 135 for 12

Smith Squat
on each side
Set 4 - 80 for 7
Drop Set - 60 for 10

Seated Calf Raise (I like to do my sets every 20 seconds for calves)
Set 3 - 190 for 12 (I could of gone a lot of heavier on this, I LOVE my calves)

After this I felt like I was going to vomit big time. I believe the intensity of the workout combinedwith 8 amp02s was way too much. Unfortunately I didn't complete my ab routine. I love amp02 for upper body but it seems to be too much for legs. I guess I could lower the dose or just not use it on leg day. As of now I like working out my legs the most out of any other day, even though I have a hard time driving my car afterwards, my clutch sucks.

Tomorrow is Leg Day :)
 
Hey Omega, Ive been experiencing this tingling sensation on the left side of my mid back. I'm curious to what this is, whether its a pinched nerve or something. Got any ideas on what it could be? It doesnt hurt it just kind of feels funny.

I kind of felt the same way earlier, but it's been lessening with time. It's like you're a junkie and you need your fix. :evil:
 
fruit with a ton of water WILL fix the craving:)

I get them at night before bed and post workout

after you consumer the fruit and h20 give it a good 10-15 min to hit the blood stream

Haha I'll try that, like trips said i do feel like a crack head with food. Also when I have my night lifting sessions whats the latest I can have milk with my shake? I got new whey and it tastes like crap but with milk it tastes like nesquik.
 
I'm extremely tired today, I think I have a sleeping problem. I constantly wake up at night, theres gotta be a way to fix this without meds. :( Off to the gym......

your doing great

do not worry if some day flow more then others, its like that some times

for example some days I can do legs all day where others I can barely finish the squats

the key is to pay attention when things are great and why, and also tough out the bad days for mind power

as far as sleep:

Hot milk and Melatonon knock me out

Well, yesterday I had a pretty good workout. Today is a different story, I thought I got over being sick. I guess I should have waited to go to the gym. Now I feel even more sick than I did before, it feels like the flu. Man I just want to hit the gym hard and I can't this really blows..... I guess I'm just gonna have to wait it out, so far I've been continuing my diet hopefully I can keep it that way. :( :( :( :(

I havent been able to post much lately, work sucks...... Its taking up everything. I should be back to normal tomorrow. Hey Omega I sent you a pm.
 
Hey Omega, I'm getting ready to go to the gym and I was wondering. Should I still be doing my 15 minutes of cardio after my lifting sessions? Or should it just be the one day a week at 30 minutes?
 
I've been working doubles lately at work so I havent been able to go to the gym as much. My last leg session was at home I was able to do everything except for the leg press. On days like these how can I substitute for leg press. Should I double up on squats?

Everything else prescribed
DB Preachers have been rocking my biceps I love it. Just gotta get my triceps to catch up they are definitely lacking. Oh yeah I had a niacin flush that day it was funny because I hit the bike for cardio man I had a hardcore 15 minutes I was sweating my ass off. Gotta love lipoflame

I love coming home from the vitamin store with new supps. I just got some glutamine complex,animal pak thanks to self inflicted and Xtend!!! I didnt know my store sold the xtend. :D I hope watermelon is good.
 
Hey Omega I was reading over a thread about cardio and when to eat after. How should I take my supps on that 30 minute cardio day? Anything besides lipoflame before cardio and what should i be taking after?
 
Yes have xtend before Cardio as well

and have one solid Protien shake post cardio 30-60 minutes after and
and one serving of creatine or RawMCC
 
I just took my first dosage of xtend......it smells good and tastes good on my finger but I didn't enjoy drinking it. :( Oh well if it works I dont care... I've got a long leg workout ahead I'll be logging later tonight.

I don't enjoy the xtend that much either but you kind of get used to it. I find that I end up drinking a lot of water to get it all down.
 
So far I've found the green apple to be really good and refreshing. The Lemon and Orange flavors are way too sour, but I chug it down anyways.
 
I havent logged in a while....I didnt get a chance to write down last week.

I'm really starting to notice a change in my body everyday. My upper body is coming along nicely. Also my legs are looking great, I just need to drop some damn fat!!!! I've been wanting to go shopping for new jeans and T-shirts. I swear everytime I put on a shirt its gets tighter everyday. My jeans that are considered "baggy" are tight in the thighs, I dont want to have to wear thugs pants hah.
 
YAY:)

dont worry the leg days and cardio day will be enough just make sure you eat clean

also phase 3 will strip it all away and some, so just focus on your lifting and eating clean

yeah with calves i def pay attention to how it feels

the days i am sure i am not cramping I go for it, the days I do i ease off and just do higher reps

a nuanced tip ;)

I don't feel like my triceps are getting a great workout anymore.....I always want to do two drop sets with triceps. I'm going to add more weight next time. They are getting pumped up and everything but I just dont feel the burn like I was before. On a better note my delts are getting rocked, they are definitely growing. Any advice on preventing stretch marks? Theres little red dots on my upper chest by my shoulders. Last time I had those dots on my biceps they turned into stretch marks :( . I guess its a good thing because that means I'm gaining pretty quickly but I'd prefer not to have them.
 
Well I attempted to take pictures but I failed. Apparently its not easy to take body shots of yourself so all I have is a terrible calf pic and a front pic. I'm gonna have to get someone to take them for me. I wish my computer wouldnt of crashed 2 months ago, it had my starting pictures on there. I'm really proud of my progress so far and I want to share it with you guys. I believe I have some pics from last month I'll have to find them.

Haha thanks for the tip/pickup line, I didnt know that came with the Omega Project :D. I've been attracting older women lately kind of weird. (must be the omega project) I'm 22 and all the women are usually in their 30s. You can use that for line for all skeptics haha!!!! Anyways I'll get you some better pics soon.
 
I havent logged in a while, I ran out of pages in my log book so I need to get a new one. I've been a little lazy with logging but have not been lazy in the gym. It seems my lifts are going up and down but my workouts are becoming more intense regardless.

I'm addicted to leg day though, I love squatting and deadlifting back to back.......I gotta be careful though after last time when I kicked the intensity level up a notch! :sick:

I havent moved up in weight since last week, its cool though I always have intense/productive workouts.
 
I'm just going to log my weight for this phase. I've been fluctuating between 200 to 202 for awhile. This morning I weighed in at 200lb. After my session and loosing the water weight I was 198. My goal is to be at 198 by this time next week!
 
Weight In: 197 w00t w00t I beat my goal, after cardio I was around 196. Goal for next week 195.....
 
Down to 195 today so i hit my goal. My diet wasnt perfect this week, but im back on track. Goal for next week is 193.................

how do you feel and look?

I feel really good and I'm looking pretty damn good. I carry most of my fat in my mid section so once that is gone I'm going to be one happy guy. Oh not too mention I went out last night and women were coming up to me left and right. :D I really wish I wouldnt of gone though, I could really notice how much it effected me. Oh well I figure I'm 80% hard work, 20% fun hah....gotta have some fun. :) I was looking at my back in the mirror today holy shit, I didnt realize the progress I've made. After phase 3 I'm going to be pretty satisfied. I'm really looking forward to starting phase 1 all over again, now that I really know what I'm doing I feel I can make some serious serious gains.
 
thats Great:)

i am happy as can be for you!

I went out too and rarely do so, gotta do it for your friends and allow the ladies some good vibes:)
 
Weigh in today was 194, Im surprised I lost weight my diet was crappy this weekend....I feel great though. :)
