Beginner WS4SB Log

So, I’m just starting WS4SB this week, and I want to keep a log so that I stick with it and have some real accountability. Plus, if anyone finds this log interesting, comments would be much appreciated.

If anyone is firmly disgusted at the idea of seeing a real beginner’s log here, let me know so I can delete it and just cry myself to sleep with a box of oreos. :stuck_out_tongue:

A little background:

I’ve been lifting for four years solid now, but I’ve only gotten really serious in the last 10 months. I used to be fat as a kid, so I cut down way to much and wound up being way to skinny. So, needless to say, my goal is gain muscle, while staying lean. My heaviest was almost 200lbs. a few years ago, and my lowest was 150lbs. as of last summer.

I’ll be keeping track of my skin-folds in three locations, taken when I wake up. An upper, middle, and lower measurement. Progress pictures will be taken every so often. I weigh myself whenever I have access to a scale once or twice every couple of weeks.

Current stats:
5’-10"
170lbs
Upper SF: 9
Middle SF: 21
Lower SF: 17

Diet:

I’ll be eating around 3200-3500 calories each day depending on training. Carbs will be limited to breakfast and around workout time, and will be limited on off/cardio days. All food will be clean, you get the idea. (Former Fat Boy mindset)

Supplements:
Biotest Superfood
Omega 3-6-9
ON Whey
ZMA
Biotest Creatine (Whenever it arrives…)

Rest Day

Wow I’ve really gotten behind on this. I have been lifting though, except being away from home for the last week has taken away from me logging on here.

Today is leg day, so I’ll post up a little later how that goes.

Otherwise, the lifting has been going good. I hit 155x5 on Sunday. Pretty weak still, but good progress by my personal record.
