Hey guys,
I decided to start a log. I’ve been training for a while but only began training seriously since last summer. I started out 160lb and got up to 200lb. Of course, it wasn’t all muscle mass. For the past few weeks I’ve been dieting down and so far progress is good. Just 2-3 more weeks and I should be done. I made the biggest gain when I was training under DC protocols. That training program is without a doubt one of the best and done properly can bring anyone to a whole new level.
I started off my cutting phase with CW’s 10x3 FFL. It was a great program and after a week i could already notice changes. But, I am just not the 10x3 kind of person, i got bored easily so i had to switch things up. Now i’m training similar to ws4sb by defranco and upping my cardio and the amount of fat im losing is amazing! Not to mention, my strength is slowly going up as well!
My stats:
Weight: 177lb
Height: 5’ 9"
1RM Bench: 245lb
5RM Deadlift: 345lb
3RM Squat: 315lb
5RM Military Press: 135lb
i don’t have the 1rm for the other lifts because ive never really done it.
Well, I’ve mentioned my current training, so now comes the diet.
Diet is simple. Caloric deficiency, protein every meal, carb during breakfast/pwo, healthy fat every meal, tons and tons of veggiesm and uhm yea thats it (healthy food choices of course)
Supplements, the usual:
protein (whey and casein)
creatine
fish oil
ZMA
HRX
My long term plan:
so right now im cutting, 2-3 weeks from now i will end up and maintain for roughly 2-3 weeks. after that, its full on bulking again for me (dream goal is AT LEAST 220lb lean)
short term goal for lifts:
BY NEXT WINTER:
1RM bench: 275lb
1RM Squat: 365lb
1RM Deadlift: 405lb
Oh, and i guess a bit about myself.
Im currently pursuing a bachelors of science in biochemistry. i plan on going for master degree in nutrition/dietetic after then become a RD (registered dietician) and work as that while at the same time as a personal trainer (plan on getting CSCS as well). Depending on situation, ill most likely pursue a PhD in nutrition as well. One day I want to start my own gym !
